Services

Four things, in the order they should happen.

Most people arrive holding a quote or a pitch. We start by working out whether it is worth anything at all, and only then talk about building.

01

Diagnose

Before anyone talks about software, we work out what the current way of doing things costs you in money and hours. Usually the answer surprises people in both directions.

If you run a business

Missed revenue and workflow audit

We follow a job from first call to final invoice and count what falls through: unanswered calls, double entry, hours spent scheduling, invoices sent late.

If you are building something

Vendor and developer quote review

Send us the quote. We tell you what is fair, what is padded, what is missing, and what you have been charged for twice.

02

Translate

Everything we find gets written in language you can repeat to your bookkeeper, your partner or another vendor, with the numbers attached.

What the vendor actually said

A one page answer to whether that system does what they claimed, what it will really cost over three years, and what it will not do.

If you are building something

A written plan anyone can quote

A plain-language specification detailed enough that three developers would give you three comparable prices for the same thing.

03

Fix

If the math says the work pays for itself, we do it. If it says a smaller version pays for itself faster, we do that instead and tell you why.

If you run a business

Booking, scheduling and dispatch

Answer every call, book jobs without paper, get the right truck to the right address, and invoice the same day the work is done.

If you are building something

A scoped, honest build

The version of your product that proves the idea, built on accounts in your name, at a price we showed our working for.

04

Protect

Once things work, the pitches do not stop. Keep us on call and send anything you are unsure about before you sign it.

A second opinion on retainer

Forward any vendor pitch, renewal or price rise. You get a straight read on it, usually the same week.

If you are building something

Someone technical in your corner

Review your developer’s work, sanity check timelines, and sit in on the conversations where you would otherwise be outnumbered.

Also available, once the diagnosis says so

Custom software, cloud and hosting, mobile apps, integrations between systems that will not talk. We lead with the question, not the catalogue.
