Custom software development: products we've built for real businesses
We build software when off-the-shelf tools don't fit how a business works. These are our products, all launched, from Immidesk, an immigration CRM, to apps for salons, workshops and restaurants.
In 15 years of websites and marketing, we kept seeing businesses pay for subscriptions that half did the job, then fill the gaps with spreadsheets. Custom software development shapes the tool around the workflow instead.
Our team builds everything in-house with PHP, MariaDB and CodeIgniter, and we use AI tools where they genuinely save time. Got your own idea? See MVP and custom software.
Fun fact
Shopify started in 2004 because its founders wanted to sell snowboards online and didn't like the software available. Plenty of good products start with frustration.
The products
Each product will get its own page covering the problem, users, features and screenshots, with outcomes only where evidence exists.

Yes. Adapting an existing product is often quicker than starting from scratch. We'll map your workflow first, then decide.
For a custom build, you own the code once it's paid in full. Our own products work differently: you subscribe to use them. We'll put this in writing in your proposal before any work starts.
It depends on features and integrations. We'll send a written quote after a discovery call. A small first version keeps costs down.
