Custom software

Software that fits the way your business already works.

When your team types the same job into four different tools, we build one system where it gets entered once. You see a working version before you decide anything.

  • A working demo before any quote
  • Built in phases you can stop after
  • Runs alongside what you use now
  • The code built for you is yours

One new job

becomes

One system, built around how you work

ScheduleJobsInvoicesMessages

Entered once

Everyone sees the same job, in the words your team already uses.

Two kinds of project

Big enough to replace a system, or small enough to do one job.

Replace what you have outgrown

One system instead of five

For the business running on a patchwork of apps, spreadsheets and group chats. We build one system around how your team works now, and retire the pieces it replaces one phase at a time.

For a plumbing and HVAC company, built module by module and already in use:

  • Dispatch and scheduling
  • Work orders
  • Inventory by truck
  • Invoicing
  • Proposals

Tools that do one job

One tool, built into your website

A calculator, an estimator or a checker: quick to build, and useful to your customers before they ever call you.

  • A probate cost calculator and a trust checkerEstate planning law firm
  • Monthly payment estimates on every homeHome builder

Have your own developers? We can set up the tools and hosting, review the code your business runs on, and train your team to build with AI coding tools.

How a project runs

You see it working before you pay for it to be built.

Your part is showing us how things work today. We do the building.

  1. 1

    Show us how you work

    A recorded call where you walk us through a normal day in the tools you use now.

  2. 2

    See it working first

    Before we price anything, you see a working version, built on your own data where we can get it, so you can judge the software itself.

  3. 3

    Build in phases

    Each phase ends with something your team can use. Continue, pause or stop at the end of any phase, and keep what has been built.

  4. 4

    Run it alongside

    The new system runs next to your current one until it matches, so nothing important depends on it before it is ready.

  5. 5

    Supported after launch

    Same-day answers in business hours, and anything that stops your team comes first.

How we decide what to build

Five rules, taken from our own planning notes.

  1. 01

    Keep your words

    The system uses the names your team already uses for things.

  2. 02

    Leave what works alone

    A process that is not broken does not get redesigned.

  3. 03

    Kill double entry first

    Anything typed twice is the first thing to go.

  4. 04

    Daily irritations before big features

    What slows your team down every day gets fixed before the impressive extras.

  5. 05

    Fewer clicks is the measure

    Success is your team doing the same job in fewer steps.

What is yours

The code built for your business is yours.

Your data, your branding and the code written for you belong to you. Pieces we reuse across clients stay ours, which is part of why you are not paying for them to be reinvented.

What it costs

Priced to the job, in phases.

Every project is quoted after you have seen a working version. Each phase gets a fixed price, weighed against what your current tools and the hours spent re-typing already cost you. You pay for the build by the phase, not by the hour, and hosting and support after launch are set out before you sign.

Questions

What people ask before they start.

How much does custom software cost?

It depends on what it replaces, so projects are quoted after you have seen a working version, on your own data where we can get it. The work is split into phases, each with a fixed price, weighed against what your current tools and the time spent re-entering information already cost you.

How long does a custom software project take?

Most projects run two to four months, in phases. The first phase gives your team something usable, and the new system runs alongside your current tools until it is ready to take over.

Read the full answer

What if we want to stop partway through?

You can. Phases are sized so you can continue, pause or stop at the end of any of them, and keep what has been built so far.

Read the full answer

Do we have to switch everything over at once?

No. The new system comes in one piece at a time and runs alongside what you use now until it can do the same job. Nothing important depends on it before it is ready.

Show us the part of your day you would delete.

Twenty minutes: walk us through what your team re-types, chases or works around. We will tell you whether custom software is the answer, or whether something off the shelf would do.
