Our Process

Our Custom Project Process

01

Deep Discovery

We run structured discovery sessions to fully understand your business, your constraints, and the outcome you're trying to achieve. We ask uncomfortable questions. That's how we prevent expensive surprises.

02

Proposal & Scoping

After discovery, we deliver a detailed proposal: what we'll build, how long it'll take, what it'll cost, and what's out of scope. Fixed price, no ambiguity.

03

Build

We build iteratively, with regular demos so you can see the work progress and course correct early if needed. No 8 week blackout periods.

04

Handoff & Training

We don't just hand over a build and disappear. We provide documentation, training sessions, and a support period so your team can actually use what we've built.

FAQ

Custom Project FAQs

Anything that doesn't fit neatly into a standard website or app build. This includes business automations, internal tools, client portals, AI powered workflows, multi system integrations, custom reporting dashboards, and any digital solution built around your specific business logic rather than a template.

All custom projects are scoped individually after a discovery session. We provide a fixed price proposal covering exactly what will be built, how long it will take, and what's excluded. No hourly billing, no ambiguous estimates that grow mid project.

We've built custom solutions for legal firms, financial advisories, hospitality groups, logistics businesses, healthcare providers, and SaaS companies. The common thread isn't industry. It's having a specific operational problem that off the shelf software can't solve efficiently.

Yes. We regularly build AI powered tools using the OpenAI API: intake forms that qualify leads, document processors, internal knowledge bases, and workflow automations that eliminate manual steps. We also build Zapier and Make automations for teams that need integration without full custom development.

Revisions within the agreed spec are included throughout the build. We work iteratively with regular demos so changes are caught early. Changes that expand the scope are quoted separately, clearly and in advance.

Yes, though we'll need to review the existing codebase before committing. If it's salvageable, we'll scope what's needed to stabilise and extend it. If it's not, we'll tell you honestly, even if that's not what you want to hear.
