Custom Software
Software built around how your business actually runs.
When spreadsheets, workarounds, and off-the-shelf tools start limiting growth, we build software that fits your processes, with AI built in where it genuinely removes work.
Signs you need this
- You're adding staff to manage processes that could be automated.
- Critical workflows live in spreadsheets and macros.
- Workarounds are the norm.
- Data is fragmented across systems.
- Your software dictates your strategy instead of supporting it.

How it works
Four weeks of discovery, then a full team shipping working software, with a first release typically within three months.
4-week discovery, then 2-week sprints
4 weeks
Step 1: Discover
Set the strategy, scope, and architecture before the build begins.
- Product strategy tied to business outcomes, with a prioritized roadmap
- A milestone and release plan, plus a risk and dependency map
- User journeys, wireframes, and technical architecture
- Yours to keep, whether or not you continue with us
Two-week sprints
Step 2: Build
A full product team builds in two-week sprints.
- Product management, engineering, QA, and design on one team
- Functional, security, and usability testing in every sprint
- Backlog ownership and sprint-level reporting, so progress is always visible
- New priorities traded against the backlog or priced before work begins, never after
First release in about 3 months
Step 3: Release
Get working software into users' hands early, then keep improving it.
- A first release typically within three months
- New versions every 2 to 4 weeks after that
- Each release checked against your business objectives, with adoption tracked
Begins when the team rolls off
Step 4: Support
Keep it secure, stable, and current after launch.
- Specifications, documentation, and a full handover
- Support & Maintenance at $5,500–8,500 per month: monitoring, security patching, bug fixes, and minor enhancements
- A monthly health report

Frequently asked questions
When should we build custom software instead of buying?
When your software dictates your strategy instead of supporting it: critical workflows live in spreadsheets and macros, workarounds are the norm, and you keep adding staff to manage processes that could be automated.
What does custom software cost?
Discovery is $35,000, fixed. After discovery, implementation is priced to your scope in a fixed proposal before work starts.
Can you modernize a system we already have?
Yes. Larger modernizations are delivered as AI-Enabled Legacy Modernization, in phases so the business keeps running while it changes.
