Software built around your business
When spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools aren’t keeping up, we can build an app, a customer portal, or a link between the systems you already use.
- One fixed price
- You own the code
- iPhone & Android from one build

What we build
Tell us the problem first. Quite often a normal website does the job.
iPhone and Android, one build
Booking and loyalty apps, field tools for trade teams, and apps for your own crew. Built once so they run on both, with notifications where they’re useful. We handle the App Store and Google Play submission.
Tools that run the business
Customer logins, booking and scheduling, job management and quoting. Works on any device straight from the browser, and can be added to a phone’s home screen without an app store.
Link the systems you already use
Your customer list, accounting software, booking system and card payments, connected so information flows between them instead of being typed in twice.
Less typing, fewer reminders
Reminders, follow-ups, reports and data entry that happen automatically, so nobody on your team has to do them by hand.
Bigger builds, planned properly
Software takes longer than a website, so we scope it carefully before anything starts. You get a written plan, a fixed price and a timeline, and you see working versions along the way rather than one big reveal at the end.
The code and everything we build for you is yours once it’s paid for.
Software is a newer service for us than websites. If you’ve got a problem you think software could fix, ask us, and we’ll tell you whether we’re the right people for it.
The spreadsheet, and what replaces it
Most of the software we’re asked about starts as a spreadsheet someone has outgrown.
- Bookings typed in by hand
- Reminders sent when someone remembers
- Invoices chased at the end of the month
- Bookings land in the job list on their own
- Customers get a reminder the day before
- The invoice goes out when the job is ticked off
- Nobody types anything twice

How pricing works
Software is quoted after a short scoping call, because no two builds are alike. You get a written plan and one fixed price before anything starts.
- A short scoping callWe talk through the problem and what you use now.
- A written plan and priceStages, dates and one fixed price, before anything starts.
- Working versions along the wayYou try it as it’s built, not just at the end.
- It’s yoursThe code lives in accounts in your name.
How you pay: in stages, set out in your written plan before any work starts.
Questions about this
Something else on your mind? Call 06 880 1844, or book a 15-minute call.
Do I need an app, or will a website do?
Often a website will do. Online bookings, price lists, quote forms and customer enquiries are all normal website jobs. An app makes sense when your customers or your team use it every day.
How long does it take?
Most builds take a few months. We agree the stages and dates in writing before we start, and you see working versions along the way.
Who owns the code?
You do, once it’s paid for. It lives in accounts in your name, so another developer could pick it up if they ever needed to.
Can you connect it to what I already use?
Usually, yes, if the software you use lets other tools connect to it. Tell us what you use and we’ll check before we quote.
Got a problem software could fix?
Describe it in a few lines and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it and what it would cost.
