CustomSoftware
What’s Included:
- Process discovery
- A data model that fits
- Integrations with what you run
- Migration off the spreadsheets
We write software around how a business already works, for the parts of it no product off the shelf will ever fit.
Working Process
- Sit With The Work – We watch the process being done before we design anything. What makes a bespoke system worth building is almost always in the exceptions nobody wrote down.
- Build in Sprints – Two-week cycles against a signed scope. Every fortnight you get working software on staging, not a status deck.
- Launch & Support – A rehearsed go-live with a rollback plan, then 6–12 months of monitoring, patches and bug fixes included.
Built For One Business, Not For A Market
A product has to fit a thousand companies, so it fits none of them exactly. Custom software has one business to satisfy, which means the awkward parts of your process get modelled rather than worked around.
- We take on the work that spreadsheets, a shared inbox and three disconnected tools are currently holding together.
- Discovery, data model, application, integrations and the handover documentation — one senior team across all of it.
What We Deliver
- A data model that matches how you actually operate
- Role-based access for every team that touches it
- Integrations with the systems you already run
- Import and migration from what it replaces
Built To Be Handed Over
Documentation, tests and runbooks are part of the deliverable, not an afterthought you have to chase us for. Source, infrastructure definitions and design files live in accounts you control from the first commit.
Tools & Tech
- TypeScript
- Node.js
- PostgreSQL
- Docker
Platforms, storefronts and internal systems delivered for clients across eCommerce, health tech, fintech and logistics.
Client satisfaction across delivered engagements — measured on what shipped, not on what was promised at kickoff.
Typical uptime after migration, with monitoring, alerting and zero-downtime deploys set up as part of the build.
What You Get
One senior team from discovery through to launch and beyond — weekly written updates, an open backlog, and direct access to the engineers doing the work. The people in your kickoff call are the people writing the code.
- Discovery – Your process mapped end to end, including the exceptions, before anyone opens an editor.
- Product engineering – TypeScript across the stack, with tests and CI gates on every merge.
- Handover & support – Documentation, runbooks and monitoring you own, plus 6–12 months of post-launch support.
How a project runs
The same five stages every time. Pick a project to see what each one produced.
Illustrative engagements — the stages are ours, the names and figures are examples.
- Span

- Team
- 4 engineers
- Stack
- Next.js
- Node.js
- PostgreSQL
- Docker
Discovery
2 weeksUnderstand the work before designing for it
Two weeks in the depot and the finance office. Eleven spreadsheets found, four of which disagreed about the same stock.
Signed scope
Architecture
2 weeksMake the expensive decisions deliberately
Stock, jobs and invoices modelled as one ledger, so a movement is recorded once and read everywhere rather than re-keyed three times.
Data model
Build
11 weeksTwo-week cycles against a signed scope
Five cycles. The depot module shipped first because that was the one costing a day a week.
Staging every fortnight
Launch
1 weekA rehearsed go-live with a way back
Run in parallel with the spreadsheets for nine days, until both sets of numbers agreed on a Friday close.
Cutover
Support
6 monthsMonths, not a handover email
Monitoring, month-end patches, and two rounds of changes the depot asked for once they had actually used it.
Handover
[ Project Brief ]
Bring us the brief, webring back the scope
Tell us what the system has to do, the metric you'd move, andthe deadline. Within 4 business hours we send back a writtenscope, a fixed estimate, and the two projects closest to theproblem you're describing.
Rather say it than type it?
Both of these reach the engineers who would do the work — no account manager in between, no discovery deck before the first question.
