Bespoke development

When a website
isn't enough.

Some problems need more than pages — a portal your customers log into, an app in your team's pocket, systems that talk to each other. We design and build those on the same stack we use for our own products.

  • C#/.NET
  • Angular / TypeScript
  • PostgreSQL
  • Azure
  • REST & real-time APIs

In plain terms: the same enterprise-grade tools behind large, business-critical platforms — put to work on software your business owns.

What we build

From a single integration to a full platform

Web apps & portals

Customer-facing web apps, admin portals and dashboards — responsive, accessible and fast, with clean role-based access built in. This is our core strength, and what most projects start as.

Mobile apps

Apps for customers and for staff in the field — like the driver delivery app we built for our own franchise platform: live jobs, turn-by-turn navigation, cash reconciliation, and an offline queue for patchy signal.

AI & automation

Practical AI inside the systems you already run — assistants that answer from your own content, automated drafting and triage, and agent integrations that let AI tools work with your data safely.

APIs & integrations

REST and real-time APIs, and integrations that connect the systems you already run — CRMs, accounting, booking, messaging and more.

Internal tools & automation

Line-of-business tools that replace spreadsheets and manual steps — operations dashboards, workflow apps and reporting that fit how you work.

Security & compliance

POPIA-aligned data handling, encryption, audit trails and access control — built in from the start, not bolted on afterwards.

How we work

A direct line, from first call to go-live

You work with the engineer, not an account manager. That keeps decisions fast, scope honest, and the person who understands your system reachable when you need them.

  1. Discovery

    We map the problem, agree what success looks like, and scope a clear first milestone — no vague open-ended briefs.

  2. Build

    We build in visible increments you can try, on a stack chosen to be secure, maintainable and ready to scale.

  3. Support

    We help you go live and stay live — with a direct line for changes, fixes and the next thing you want to add.

What it costs

Priced by scope, with a fixed first step

Most engagements R75,000 – R250,000+
Fixed-price first milestone From R40,000

Most engagements land in this range. We start with a fixed-price first milestone, so you see working software before committing to the whole build.

App & platform FAQs

The questions that matter

You're one engineer — what happens if you're unavailable?

You're never dependent on one person being reachable. Work is scoped into milestones with agreed dates, the code is documented and built to enterprise standards, and it all lives in your own repository and accounts — so any competent engineer can pick it up. Support terms are agreed in writing up front, not left vague.

Who owns the code and IP?

You do — in full. The source code, data and accounts are yours and handed over. No lock-in, no per-seat licence on your own software.

How much does a custom app cost?

Most engagements run R75,000–R250,000+ depending on scope. We start with a fixed-price first milestone (from R40,000) so you see working software before committing to the full build.

How is AI used with my data safely?

Your data stays in your systems. AI features are given scoped, least-privilege access to only what they need, with POPIA-aligned handling and audit trails — no quietly shipping your customers' data off to a third party.

Can you maintain and extend it after launch?

Yes. You get a direct line to the engineer who built it for fixes, changes and the next thing you want to add — not a support queue.
