Indie and solo developers
You need a console release without taking your focus away from the game. Lynci gives you a clear scope, fixed price, and a technical path to the target platform.
AI-native porting framework
Ship your port 10x faster
on every platform with Lynci - at a fixed price
Forget about runaway porting budgets. Lynci makes repeatable technical work up to 10x faster, with a fixed price, fixed delivery time, and code your team fully owns.
Trusted by studios and publishers
Game porting is not only a technology problem.
It is an economic one.
Timeline risk
Months of dedicated engineering time
A typical port takes several months to over a year and ties up a full-time engineering team for its entire duration.
Cost risk
Porting costs price out smaller studios
High porting costs often exclude smaller studios from releasing their game on additional platforms at all.
Quality risk
Mundane porting work slows the release
Asset resizing, format conversion, and other repetitive tasks take time away from the engineering decisions that move a port forward.
Talent risk
Senior engineers stuck on routine conversion
Experienced engineers spend their time on routine, mechanical conversions instead of polishing the game’s quality.
Our Solution
Our experienced porting team uses internal AI tools for repetitive technical work: code analysis, platform refactoring, API and dependency conversion, asset optimization, and regression-test support. Engineers review each result before it enters the build.
Months → Weeks
Cuts the time it takes to deliver a port.
Cost-efficient
Significantly lower engineering-hour costs per project.
Less mundane work
Asset resizing, conversion, and other repetitive tasks get a fast first pass.
Lynci runs in our controlled local environment. Your source code and project data never leave it or reach external AI services. A porting engineer reviews each AI-assisted change, and our QA team tests the final build.
Built for the teams behind the game
Porting support for every kind of game team.
Development teams
Your team has a roadmap to protect. We handle the repeatable porting work, so your developers can keep building the game and the features players are waiting for.
Publishers
You need reliable cost, timing, and quality across a portfolio. Lynci makes the technical work faster while experienced engineers and QA remain accountable for each release.
Built from 100+ porting projects
A framework for repeatable technical work
Lynci is our internal framework, built from the knowledge we gained across more than 100 projects. We know which parts of a port repeat from one game and platform to the next. Lynci helps our engineers complete those technical tasks faster with AI.
A porting developer stays responsible
We use AI only where it removes technical repetition, such as code analysis, refactoring, dependency work, and platform checks. It does not write creative content or make creative decisions. An experienced porting developer reviews the work, makes the technical calls, and approves every change before release. We do not label our ports as AI-made. They remain human work, with AI used only to speed up specific technical tasks.
Where Lynci saves time
AI works on the technical layer. People own the game.
Lynci helps with repeatable technical work. It never creates your game’s content or makes creative decisions.

An experienced porting developer reviews the result, makes the technical decisions, and approves every change. Our in-house QA team then tests the final build before release.
How Lynci is different
Faster work should not make a port harder to own.
Speed only matters when your team keeps full control after handover.
01
With Lynci
Fast technical work. Full project control.
Readable code your team can own, change, and maintain after handover.
Dependencies chosen for the project, with full access and documentation.
AI used only for repeatable technical work. Content and creative decisions stay with people.
An experienced developer approves every change. Our in-house QA team tests the final build.
02
Forget about
A faster port that creates a new problem.
Code that nobody can edit or maintain after delivery.
Libraries added without access, context, or a way out.
AI generating game content or making creative decisions.
Changes pushed into the build without human review.
After handover
Source code, access, documentation, and a port your team can keep building on.How the delivery model changes
Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed delivery time.
How Lynci works
- 01A fixed price for the agreed scope, with no hourly surprises.
- 02A fixed delivery time, based on a technical review of the project.
- 03Faster delivery because Lynci handles repeatable technical work.
- 04AI hosted locally. Your game code stays in our controlled environment and is not shared with external AI services.
What often happens elsewhere
- 01Hourly billing makes the final cost move with every new issue.
- 02Early estimates change when hidden technical work appears.
- 03Long delivery schedules tie up your team for longer than planned.
- 04It may be unclear whether AI tools are used or where the game code is processed.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Typical game | A feature-complete indie game with a stable PC build and standard platform work. | A premium indie game that needs more adaptation, optimisation, or a broader release. | An AA game with more systems, a larger technical footprint, or tougher platform requirements. | AA+ or AAA, remakes, remasters, mobile ports, custom engines, or an exceptional scope. |
| Engine and build | Current Unity or Unreal version. The build is stable and no upgrade is expected. | A version update, small build repair, or limited dependency work may be needed. | A major engine upgrade, pipeline migration, wider build repair, or several dependencies need work. | A custom or unsupported engine, no reliable build, or a major technical intervention. |
| Platform work | Controller, UI, and performance are already close to the target platforms. | Limited controller, UI, or performance adaptation is expected. | Broad controller or UI work, or substantial optimisation is needed across platforms. | Core mechanics, UI framework, or performance systems need redesign. |
| Online, saves, and services | No multiplayer or backend work. Standard local or cloud saves are enough. | Existing multiplayer, profiles, slots, or standard service integrations. | Cross-play, accounts, platform backend work, save migration, or complex services. | New multiplayer, backend, save, or platform-service architecture. |
| Project scale | Up to 250K lines of project-owned code with a contained scope. | Up to 750K lines of code or a larger technical footprint. | Up to 1.5M lines of code, a larger game, or several major systems. | Over 1.5M lines, legacy projects, or a custom delivery model. |

What our partners say.
Lynci made porting far more cost-effective and easier to manage, letting us bring the release to more platforms. The game also passed certification on the first attempt - proof of how reliable the framework is.

FAQ
Questions before you ask for an estimate.
How do you set the final price?+
We review the project against the qualification criteria. The highest applicable technical factor sets the tier. If the project sits outside Factory scope, we prepare a custom estimate.
Does the fixed price include QA and certification?+
Yes. The agreed Factory scope includes engineering, platform integration, QA, certification, standard resubmissions, and standard post-release support.
What platforms are included in the fixed price?+
Standard Factory pricing includes PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, WinGDK, Nintendo Switch 1, and Nintendo Switch 2. Mobile and any other platform requirements are handled through a custom estimate.
Can you assess a game that is still in development?+
Yes. A frozen PC baseline makes a fixed price easier to set. If planned PC changes continue during porting, we include that work in the classification.
Does Lynci create game content?+
No. Lynci is used for repeatable technical work. Gameplay, art, writing, narrative, and all final technical decisions remain with experienced people.
What changes the agreed price?+
New platforms, DLC, game modes, features, content, engine changes, major backend changes, or substantial PC changes after the baseline is agreed are quoted separately.
How is DLC priced?+
We scope DLC separately based on the content, technical work, platform requirements, and testing it needs. Once the scope is clear, it receives its own fixed price.
What if I already have a port on one platform?+
We review the existing port and the PC baseline, then quote the remaining platforms and any work needed to bring shared systems up to the required standard.
Can you take a single-platform or mobile project?+
Yes, but those projects sit outside standard Factory pricing and receive a custom assessment.
