Silver Spring, MD — DC Metro

We handle the technology.
You focus on the mission.

Gray Fox Digital is a small, agile technology firm that builds and manages the IT infrastructure and custom software that DC-area nonprofits, associations, and growing organizations depend on — without the overhead of an enterprise vendor or the risk of building it alone.

Built for organizations that
have a mission, not a megabudget.

We work with organizations that have outgrown basic IT support but aren't ready to build an internal engineering team. Our clients are in the DC metro area and need a partner who shows up, solves real problems, and builds things that last.

Nonprofits & Foundations

Organizations producing policy briefs, reports, and public-facing research that need technology infrastructure and tools their teams can actually use.

Associations & Advocacy Groups

Member-driven organizations that need custom software, reliable networks, and secure systems to serve their members and protect their credibility.

Think Tanks & Research Institutes

Research organizations that publish credible work and need AI tools that retrieve and cite real sources — not fabricate plausible-sounding ones.

Growing Small Businesses

Companies that have moved past consumer IT and need professional infrastructure, cloud deployment, and software development without enterprise pricing.

One partner for your entire technology stack.

From the network cable in your office to the API powering your application — we design, build, and manage the full picture so your team never has to chase down three different vendors to solve one problem.

01

IT Infrastructure & Office Technology

Your network just works. Stop thinking about it.

We design and install the physical and wireless infrastructure your office runs on, configure your hardware the right way the first time, and set up server environments that don't require constant attention.

  • LAN cabling & Wi-Fi design and installation
  • Routers, switches, firewalls & VLAN configuration
  • Windows Server / Linux setup & maintenance
  • Active Directory, user access & on-premises backup
  • UPS systems, server racks & peripheral integration
02

Backend Software & API Development

Custom software that fits how your organization actually works.

We build the server-side systems, APIs, and integrations that make your applications reliable. Whether you need a new platform built from scratch or existing systems connected, we design for stability and scale.

  • RESTful & GraphQL API design and development
  • CMS, mobile app & third-party service integration
  • Authentication & authorization systems
  • Apigee proxy configuration
  • Database design, optimization & backup planning
03

Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps

Deploy with confidence. Scale without drama.

We stand up and manage cloud environments on AWS, Azure, or GCP, build the CI/CD pipelines that make deployments routine, and put the monitoring in place so you know about problems before your users do.

  • Cloud hosting setup & architecture (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • CI/CD pipeline design and implementation
  • Monitoring, logging & alerting systems
  • Staging environments for pre-release validation
  • Performance testing, load testing & optimization
04

Security & Compliance

Your data protected. Your auditors satisfied.

We build security into the systems we deliver rather than bolting it on afterward. From API-level controls to data encryption and compliance documentation, we ensure your organization is protected and audit-ready.

  • Data encryption at-rest and in-transit
  • API security, rate limiting & throttling
  • GDPR & CCPA compliance considerations
  • Backend QA & integration testing
  • OpenAPI documentation & developer handover

Tools we built. Available now.

Alongside our client work, Gray Fox builds software products. Two are live or in active development — both designed for specific organizations with specific problems.

Small team. Direct access. No account managers.

Gray Fox Digital LLC is a technology firm based in Silver Spring, Maryland. We are a small, focused team — which means when you work with us, you work directly with the people designing and building your systems. No account managers translating requirements. No junior staff doing the work while senior staff sell the engagement.

We operate across the full technology stack: physical infrastructure, server and cloud environments, backend software, and AI tooling. That breadth is intentional — organizations shouldn't need three vendors to keep one system running.

Our clients are primarily in the DC metro area. We understand the environment they operate in: limited budgets, high standards for data security, and work that matters.
