Rocky Bunker
Founder
Rocky leads strategy and client relationships — learning how a business actually runs, finding where it leaks time and money, and turning that into a plan worth building. He takes every first call himself.
Haestus · St. George, Utah
Two builders.
One red-rock town.
We're James Watling and Rocky Bunker. Together we run Haestus — a small studio building custom AI systems, sites, CRMs and automations for businesses that have outgrown off-the-shelf software.
The team
When you hire Haestus, you get us.
No account managers, no outsourced handoffs. The two people you talk to on the first call are the two people who design, build and support your system.
James Watling
Co-founder · Engineering
James leads engineering — the software, AI agents, CRMs and infrastructure behind every Haestus build. Custom code, written for the business in front of him, shipped in weeks and kept running after launch.
Home base
Built in St. George,
shipped everywhere.
We live and work in Southern Utah. Plenty of our clients are local, and plenty are spread across the country — Utah, California, Florida and Puerto Rico. Happy to meet in person around Washington County, or on a call anywhere else.
