In a world of VC-funded AI unicorns and billion-dollar consultancies, xgility.com (Applied Information Sciences) operates in the shadows of Microsoft's ecosystem. With just 22 employees and $2.2M in revenue, they've built a niche that most scaling agencies would kill for: deep, specialized expertise in Microsoft Cloud solutions.

"This isn't a growth story—it's a precision story. They're not scaling; they're sharpening."

The technology stack tells its own story: jQuery, Tailwind CSS, Bootstrap, Google Analytics, and Microsoft Clarity. It's a pragmatic, no-frills stack that prioritizes function over flash. The absence of modern frameworks like React or Vue suggests they're not building custom applications—they're configuring and optimizing existing Microsoft solutions. The use of Clarity (Microsoft's own analytics tool) is a subtle but telling choice: they eat their own dog food.

• Deep Microsoft Cloud specialization (SharePoint, Azure, Microsoft 365)
• Ultra-lean operational model (22 people, $2.2M revenue)
• Reputation-based client acquisition (0 tracked traffic suggests referral-driven growth)
• Pragmatic technology stack focused on delivery, not innovation theater
• Clear specialization over diversification strategy
