Custom development

If you can't buy it, we build it.

Software made to measure: web apps, client portals, integrations and automation, hand-written, documented, and built so it belongs to your business, not the other way around.

Off-the-shelf software ends where your business is special

Any off-the-shelf software can do the first 80 percent. But the last 20 (your workflows, your pricing logic, that one spreadsheet nothing works without) is where the edge is. We build tools that adapt to your business instead of the other way around: from a small automation script to a complete client portal.

What we build

From a one-day script to a portal with a thousand users, the toolbox is the same.

Web apps & portals

Client portals, internal tools, booking and management systems, with login, permissions and a clean database.

Integrations & APIs

Connect systems that don't know each other: inventory, accounting, shop, CRM. Data flows automatically instead of by hand.

Automation

Recurring manual work (reports, imports, reconciliations) runs by itself at night. Often the fastest win.

Custom CMS & editing

Maintain content without third-party bloat: an editorial system that knows your content, like the one behind this website.

Databases & reporting

Scattered lists become one reliable data foundation, with reports that carry decisions.

Maintainable & documented

Readable code, documentation and handover: you are not tied to us for better or worse.

Honestly speaking

Sometimes we advise against building

Custom software is the most expensive way to solve a problem that is already solved. If a ready-made tool fits ninety percent of your case, we tell you in the first conversation, and set it up for you if you like. We only build when made-to-measure genuinely is the better invoice. That is also why the initial consultation costs nothing.

Entry by project size

From feasibility check to portal, with a fixed price per stage instead of an open hourly tab.

Automation, integration or a small tool, in use quickly.

All prices plus statutory VAT and indicative; the fixed price is set after the concept. Smaller changes to existing software we bill at €89 per hour in 15-minute increments.

By the way: no price here is set in stone.

Budget and package don't quite match? Talk to us and we'll find a fair deal. We especially like supporting founders and young businesses, for example with a lower project price combined with hosting or ongoing care.

How your software comes to life

01

Understand

We look at your workflow, not just the wish list. The solution is often somewhere else than expected.

02

Concept

Rough design, stages and a fixed price: you know beforehand what it costs and what you get.

03

Build

Development in stages. After each one there is something tangible, no six months of radio silence.

04

Test

You test with real data and real workflows. Whatever sticks gets fixed before going live.

05

Operate

Hosting, monitoring and further development from one hand, or handover to your team.

Frequently asked questions about custom development

What does custom software cost?

Small automations and integrations start at around €1,250, typical web apps and portals at €4,900. After the free initial consultation and concept you get a fixed price per stage, no open hourly tab.

Do I own the code in the end?

Yes. You receive the complete source code with documentation and can switch to another provider or your own team at any time. We keep clients through good work, not through dependency.

How long does a project take?

Small projects are often ready in a few days; typical portals take a few weeks to a few months. The stages mean you see progress continuously and can adjust course at any time.

Can you build on existing software?

Usually yes: we extend existing systems, build integrations or replace precisely the part that jams. A complete rebuild is the exception, not the default.

What about maintenance and further development?

On request we take over operations, monitoring and further development as a monthly package, with the same conditions as our website care: cancel monthly, fixed response times.

Why not just use standard software?

If standard fits: absolutely! That is the first thing we check in the free initial consultation, and we tell you openly. Made-to-measure pays off where your workflows are your competitive edge, or where you pay monthly for ten tools that together still don't make one.

Tell us what's stuck.

The initial consultation costs nothing and ends with an honest recommendation, even if it is "buy instead of build".
