Web apps built around how your business works
Customer portals, staff dashboards, online shops and full SaaS platforms. We design, build and host web apps that are fast, secure and easy to use on any screen, then keep improving them as your business grows.
Website or web app?
A website tells people about your business. A web app lets them get something done: sign in, book, order, pay, check a status or manage an account. Your staff can use one too, to run jobs, approve work or see the figures that matter.
Because a web app runs in the browser, there's nothing to install and everyone always has the latest version. It works on laptops, tablets and phones, and it can grow into an iPhone and Android app later on the same back end.
Web apps for your customers and your team
Customer portals
Customers sign in to see their orders, invoices, bookings and documents, update their details and get help, without waiting for someone to reply.
Dashboards and reporting
Live figures from your systems in one place, with charts, filters and exports, so decisions don't wait for a monthly spreadsheet.
Online shops and payments
E-commerce, subscriptions and online payments through providers such as Stripe and GoCardless, with receipts, refunds and failed payments handled.
SaaS platforms
Software you sell to other businesses, with sign-up, subscription plans, separate accounts for each customer, permissions and an admin area.
Linked to your other software
Your accounting, CRM, stock or booking system connected through its API, so details are typed once and stay the same everywhere.
Fast, secure and accessible
Pages that load quickly on a phone signal, data and sign-in protected properly, and screens that work for everyone, including keyboard and screen reader users.
Good fits for a web app
If your team and customers keep sending spreadsheets and emails back and forth, a web app is often the answer.
- Customers keep asking for updates they could check for themselves
- Orders, bookings or jobs are tracked in spreadsheets and inboxes
- You want to sell software to other businesses on a subscription
- An old system or website needs replacing without losing its data
- Staff, customers and partners need to work from the same information

Common questions
How long does it take to build a web app?
We start with the smallest version that's genuinely useful, put it live early and keep adding to it in two-week sprints, so you see working software from the first sprint. You get a timeline for the first release once we understand what you need.
How much does a web app cost?
It depends on the number of screens, who uses it and which systems it connects to. We quote after a free first conversation and a look at what you need. Because we work in sprints against an agreed budget, the most valuable features are always built first.
Can you work with our existing website or system?
Yes. We can build a web app alongside your website, replace an old system a piece at a time, or move your data across with every record checked.
Will it work on phones?
Yes. Everything we build works on phones, tablets and computers. If you later want an app in the App Store and Google Play, it can share the web app's back end.
Who owns the code?
You do. All rights to the software we build for you transfer to you when the project is complete, and you get the code, the accounts and plain-English documentation.
Where will it be hosted?
On reliable cloud hosting such as Azure or AWS, or on your own servers, with backups, monitoring and security updates set up from the start. We can look after the hosting for you or hand it over.
