Web applications

A tool built around the way you work.

Jobs, customers, documents and follow-ups in one place, reachable from any browser, with accounts for your team and no per-seat fees. Scoped after a discovery workshop, priced in writing, delivered in two-week slices.

Who it is for

For businesses that run on spreadsheets and e-mail.

You track your work in spreadsheets

Jobs, bookings, vehicles or files live in several tabs and nobody has the latest version. The application becomes the one place, with the history of each record.

Your customers call to ask where things stand

A login for your customers shows them their requests, their documents and their invoices, and the questions stop coming by phone.

Off-the-shelf software does not fit

The tool you tried does half the job and charges per seat. A custom application does your process, and only yours, with no fee per user.

Your team works in the field

A view made for phones: the job of the day, the checklist, the photos, the signature, synced with the office.

The problem we solve

The job of an application is to remove double entry.

Most small businesses do not need more software. They need the information typed once to reach everyone who uses it. An application earns its price on four points.

  1. One record per job, customer or file, with its documents and its history.
  2. Accounts and roles, so each person sees what concerns them.
  3. Screens that work on a phone as well as on a desk.
  4. Connections to the software you keep: accounting, calendar, e-mail.

How it works

From the workshop to the first live version.

  1. 01

    Discovery workshop

    Your process as it happens today: who does what, with which documents, where it gets stuck.

  2. 02

    Written scope

    The screens, the modules, the price and the dates. Nothing starts before you approve it.

  3. 03

    Mockups

    The screens drawn before they are built, with a round of changes.

  4. 04

    Build in slices

    A working version every two weeks, tested with your real data; your feedback goes into the next slice.

  5. 05

    Launch and training

    Your spreadsheets imported, recorded training, a short written guide, and a plan to run it.

Timeline

  • About 30 working days to a first live version, delivered in two-week slices.
  • Your dates are written into the scope after the workshop; modules and connections add to them.

What we need from you

  • A walk through your process with real examples: a job, a customer, a document.
  • Your current spreadsheets, as they are: we import them, a test import first.
  • One person who decides, and tests each slice within a few days.
  • Access to the software the application connects to.

Questions worth settling first

How much does a custom web application cost?

A starter hub starts at $2,900, and the estimator shows a range of up to 20% above it. Modules add to that figure: a client portal $1,490, scheduling $1,690, online payments $890, reports $790. The written scope fixes the price before anything is built.

Is there a monthly fee?

Yes, because the application needs hosting, backups and updates: $99/mo for upkeep alone, or $190/mo with support and a monthly allowance of changes. There is no fee per user.

How long does it take?

About 30 working days to a first live version, delivered in two-week slices. The scope written after the workshop gives your dates.

Do we have to leave our accounting software?

No. The application connects to it: each connection is $890, plus a small monthly amount. What you keep stays where it is.

Who owns the application?

You do. The code, the data and the hosting account are yours, and we hand them over with the documentation if you ever leave.

Is it an app for the app stores?

No. It runs in the browser, on a phone as well as on a desk, which spares you the stores and their updates. A field view for phones is a module of its own.
