  What we make

Custom software, in four shapes.

Most projects combine two or three of these.

01

Custom web apps.

Software your customers and your team live in.

Customer portals, online products, and internal tools, built around the way your business actually works instead of the way an off-the-shelf vendor assumes it should.

  • Customer portals and dashboards
  • Online products people sign up for
  • Internal admin and operations tools

02

Mobile apps.

Your software in your customers' pockets.

Apps for iPhone and Android, built for the phone itself rather than a shrunken-down version of your website.

  • Ordering and loyalty apps
  • Booking and scheduling
  • Tools for teams out in the field

03

Connected tools.

Connect what you have. Automate what you do.

We make the tools you already use talk to each other, so the same information stops getting typed in three times.

  • Keep your CRM, accounting, and shop in sync
  • Automatic handoffs between tools
  • New connections built to order

04

AI automation.

Workflows that run themselves, not chatbots for show.

We wire your tools, your data, and AI into routines that handle the repetitive work, leaving people for the parts that actually need judgement.

  • Pulling key details out of documents
  • Sorting and replying to incoming email
  • Approvals that route themselves

  What the right system gives back

Six ways a fitted system pays for itself.

  • 01

    Hours back every week.

    The jobs that used to eat a whole afternoon now happen in the background. Across a team, that adds up to a full hire's worth of time every few months.

  • 02

    Fewer costly mistakes.

    Re-typing data, copy-paste slips, dropped handoffs: the system catches them before they turn into a bill.

  • 03

    Knowledge stays in the system.

    Not stuck in one person's head or a folder nobody can find. When they're on holiday, the work still runs.

  • 04

    A tool the team actually uses.

    Built around the way your team really works, so people reach for it because it makes them faster, not because they were told to.

  • 05

    Grows with you.

    Handles a hundred records today and a hundred thousand later, with no painful rebuild two years down the line.

  • 06

    Yours to keep.

    Your code, your data, your accounts. No lock-in, no per-seat fees creeping up every year. You can take it elsewhere whenever you want.

  How the work moves

Four phases. Weekly shipping.

Phase 01

Listen.

We shadow the work as it happens. Where the hours go, where the mistakes get made.

What this looks like

  • We watch the work happen, the real way it's done, not the version on a slide
  • We find where the hours go and where things break
  • We talk to the people doing the job every day
  • We write down the rules that only live in people's heads

  Common questions

The things people actually ask.

  • How is this different from buying off-the-shelf software?

    Off-the-shelf makes your business bend to fit the software. Custom software does the opposite: it's built around the way your team already works. It costs more up front, but there are no per-seat fees climbing every year, and no "we don't support that" when you ask for a change.

  • How long does a project take?

    Replacing a spreadsheet usually takes three to six weeks. Replacing older software is four to eight, depending on how much data is involved. We agree on a launch date before any work starts.

  • How much does it cost?

    We price by project, set after a first call. Spreadsheet replacements usually land in the low-to-mid five figures, and bigger software replacements in the mid-to-high five figures. The price is fixed up front: no hourly billing, no surprise invoices.

  • Will it work with the tools we already use?

    Yes, that's usually a must. Most systems we build sit alongside your existing tools (accounting, CRM, calendar, email) and keep them in sync. We map out every connection during planning, before we build.

  • What if we want changes after launch?

    You own the code and the accounts. You can bring in any developer to make changes, or stay with us on a smaller monthly plan. The system isn't locked behind our doors. It's yours.

  • What technology do you build on?

    TypeScript across the board (Next.js, Node, and a database like Postgres), hosted on whatever fits your scale (Vercel, AWS, or your own cloud). We pick based on your team and the job, not on what we feel like using.
