Web apps and business systems
For work that's outgrown the spreadsheet, like bookings or job cards.
The problem
The business outgrew the spreadsheet two years ago. Now three people keep copies of it, and the one that's right lives on someone's laptop.
Off-the-shelf software covers most of the job, and the part it misses is the part your business depends on.

Questions
What people ask on the first call
If yours isn't here, WhatsApp it and you'll have an answer within one working day.
We need to know what you need before we can give a fixed price. Once we've talked it through, we quote for the agreed work. The price only changes if that work changes.
Because hourly billing pays a slow developer more than a quick one, and you carry the cost of every delay. With a fixed price, the time it takes is our problem.
You own your data and can export it whenever you want. By default we keep the software and code and license it to you while you're subscribed, which keeps the build price down. If you'd rather own the code outright, tell us on the call and we'll quote that option in writing.
Yes, where the job needs it. We've shipped offline-first tools for field staff and shop floors.
Yes, as a larger system from R250 000. A marketplace is two products in one: a side where sellers or hosts list what they offer and get paid, and a side where buyers find it and pay. The hard parts are paying each seller their share and sorting out disputes. We usually launch in one city or category first, so you can see people use it before you pay for the rest.
