The problem

Most growing companies don’t need another SaaS login.

They need fewer handoffs.

  • Too many subscriptions.
  • Important processes still living in spreadsheets.
  • The same information entered twice.
  • People jumping between five tools.
  • A business that doesn’t quite fit its software.
One order, today5 handoffs
  1. 01Your employee receives an order by email.Inbox
  2. 02Copies it into Excel.Spreadsheet
  3. 03Checks stock in another system.Stock system
  4. 04Emails purchasing.Inbox
  5. 05Updates the customer manually.Phone / email
  6. 06Then someone enters it into accounting.Accounting

That’s not five jobs. That’s one workflow with bad software.

The alternative

Why change your business to fit software when software can be built to fit your business?

Custom business software is no longer just for enterprise budgets.

We build a Custom Operations System around the way your business actually works — using AI-native development so delivery fits SME timelines and budgets, not traditional multi-month agency cycles.

AI is wired into the flow where it earns its place: approvals, chasing, data entry and status updates so your people stop being the glue between five disconnected tools.

We’re not selling developers.

We’re redesigning the workflow that already runs your company.

Engagement shape

Initial builds typically £3,000–£10,000.

Broken into phases, so you’re never asked for a £30k leap from a cold start.

You own it

You own the code, infrastructure, and documentation.

Optional Care

Optional Care packages keep the system hosted, monitored, and improving — so this isn’t a one-off project shop.

Example path
  1. Phase 1Orders, customers, dashboard
  2. Phase 2Purchasing and suppliers
  3. Phase 3Inventory
  4. Phase 4Email / AI automation

Something you can use at the end of every phase.

Who this is for

Operational SMEs — roughly 10–100 people.

With a working business and inefficient systems.

You’re a fit if:

  • Spreadsheets, email, and WhatsApp still carry real work
  • Several SaaS tools don’t quite join up
  • People repeat the same data entry
  • There’s no large internal software team
  • An owner, MD, or ops lead can decide without a six-month committee

You’re not a fit if…

You’re looking for a generic app idea parked on a napkin, or another off-the-shelf platform to squeeze into.

Niches we’re starting with

Proof

We also run live platforms in hospitality and food service — Stayvieo and FoodCiti — so we know what it takes to keep systems in production, not just in a slide deck.

Custom software has changed. AI has reduced the time and cost of building software around real operations. Before you spend months forcing another SaaS onto your team, find out what it would cost to build around the way you already work.

Questions

Before you show us your workflow.

The questions operations leads ask first — about spreadsheets, SaaS, the Blueprint, and who owns what at the end.

See what the Blueprint includes
01When should we replace spreadsheets instead of buying another SaaS tool?

Buy software when your process is standard and a product fits it without a spreadsheet alongside — accounting, payroll and email are good examples.

Build around your workflow when the spreadsheet exists because nothing fits: the same information is typed into several tools, one person holds the process together, and each new subscription adds another handoff. If an off-the-shelf tool would do the job, the Blueprint will tell you so.

Another SaaS login or software that fits?
02What does a Custom Operations System include?

Whatever your workflow actually needs — usually some combination of orders, customers, purchasing and suppliers, inventory, a dashboard, and email or AI automation for the repetitive steps, with approvals wherever a person should decide.

It connects to the tools you keep, such as your accounting software, and is built in phases rather than replacing everything at once.

03What is the AI Workflow Blueprint, and what does it cost?

A 60–90 minute discovery session, followed by a written Blueprint: a map of your current workflow, bottlenecks and automation opportunities, a proposed system and modules, a basic prototype, estimated savings, implementation phases and a fixed-price proposal.

Part of that discovery is working out where AI workflow automation is genuinely enough — a chasing sequence, an approval reminder — and where the business actually needs a purpose-built system underneath.

The introductory price is £300–£600 (or free for selected early customers), and the fee is credited toward development if you go ahead.

What’s in an AI Workflow Blueprint
04How much does a build cost?

Initial builds are typically £3,000–£10,000, broken into phases so you have something usable at the end of each one — you are never asked for a £30k leap from a cold start. Every phase is quoted at a fixed price.

05Who owns the code?

You do. The code, infrastructure and documentation are yours. Optional Care plans cover hosting, monitoring and ongoing changes, but you are never locked into them.

06Which businesses do you work with?

Operational SMEs of roughly 10–100 people in the UK, Australia and New Zealand, where orders, jobs or requests move between people and tools every day.

We are starting with wholesale and distribution, hospitality operations, and operational service businesses.
