Why people order this
When work is tracked in five spreadsheets and a group chat, things get missed and only one person knows where everything is. A web application built around how you already work puts it in one place, with logins for staff and, where needed, your customers.
Good for
- Businesses running bookings, jobs or orders on spreadsheets and email.
- Companies that want a client portal for documents, invoices or progress.
- Teams who have outgrown an off-the-shelf tool but only need part of a big system.
- Owners with a clear process who want software built around it.
What's included
Not included
- Features not in the written plan. New ideas are welcome and quoted as a change.
- Native iPhone or Android apps.
- Server and third-party service costs, such as SMS or mapping fees.
- Ongoing development after launch support ends, which is quoted separately.
- Moving data from old systems, unless it is in the plan.
What you get
About this service
Portals, booking systems, dashboards and tools built around how your business works. We start with a discovery call and a written plan, then build, test and launch it with you.
For bigger projects we agree a fixed price for each stage before work begins.
How the work runs
Typical delivery is 45 working days from payment and an agreed plan; larger projects get dates per stage in the written plan.
Discovery
Week 1: calls with you and the people who will use the tool, then a written plan and stage prices.
Build in stages
We build one stage at a time and share a private preview link at the end of each.
Review
You test each stage and approve it or send changes covered by the plan.
Launch
We set the application up on its live server, add your first users and go live.
Launch support
We fix any problems that come up once real people start using it.
What we need from you
- Time with you, and ideally the people who will use the tool, during discovery.
- Examples of the spreadsheets, forms or documents you use today.
- Quick decisions when we ask questions during the build.
- Access to the hosting or server it will run on, or a plan to order one.
- Accounts for any outside services it connects to.
Good to know before you order
Is the listed price the full cost?
It is the starting price for a small application. After discovery we send a written plan with a fixed price for each stage, and you decide before work begins.
Can I pay in stages?
Yes. Larger projects are usually paid in milestones linked to the stages in the plan.
What happens if I want to change something mid-build?
We write down the change, tell you what it does to the price and the dates, and only go ahead when you agree.
Who owns the code?
You get the source code for your application once it is paid in full. Our own reusable tools and libraries are licensed to you for use in that application.
