The problem

You know the spreadsheet. The one the whole company secretly runs on.

Every growing business hits the same wall: the tools that got you here can't carry what's next. Processes live in someone's head. Data gets retyped three times. The software you pay for almost fits, so your team works around it every day.

That gap between how your business works and what your tools allow is costing you hours, errors and hires.

01
The same data, typed three times
Quote to job sheet to invoice, by hand, every time.
02
Process that lives in one person's head
When they're off, the work stops.
03
Software you pay for and work around
It almost fits. Almost is the expensive part.
04
Hiring to patch a systems problem
Headcount is the most expensive workaround there is.

What you're guaranteed

Four commitments, in writing, before you pay anything.

Most software projects go wrong for commercial reasons long before they go wrong technically. These four commitments close off the usual causes.

A fixed price, agreed upfront

Scope, price and timeline agreed in writing before we start. No surprise invoices.

You own everything

Full source, documentation and your own hosting accounts. No lock-in, ever.

An update every Friday

In plain English, without asking. Miss one and that week's project management is free.

30 days of fixes included

After launch, at no extra cost. Then an optional care plan if you want one.

Why us

A senior team and a dedicated delivery lead on every project.

Your project is designed and built by senior engineers with 15 years behind them, in finance, logistics, energy and plenty besides. Nobody hands your project to a junior halfway through. A dedicated delivery lead runs alongside the build, so you always know exactly where things stand.

FAQ

Questions owners actually ask.

Anything not covered here, ask on the call. We answer straight.

Book a scoping call
01How much does a custom web application cost?
Every project gets a fixed price, agreed in writing before we start. Never a day rate, never a surprise invoice. A scoping call gives you a specific number for your project in 30 minutes.
02How long does it take?
A focused internal tool: 4–8 weeks. Larger systems: 2–4 months. Websites: 3 weeks, fixed.
03Who owns the code?
You do. Full source, documentation and your own hosting accounts. No lock-in.
04What if we're not technical?
That's the point of us. Your delivery lead translates everything; you never need to read a line of code.
05Can you work with our existing systems?
Usually, yes. Integrations with Salesforce, accounting tools and internal APIs are a core part of what we build.
06What happens after launch?
30 days of included fixes, then an optional care plan for hosting, monitoring and small changes.
