Custom operations software for companies that build, install and deliver

Quotes, material take-offs, orders, claims and production stages in one system built around how your team actually works. Replace spreadsheets and per-seat SaaS with software you own, delivered in weeks at a fixed price.

Two founders: a manufacturing engineer turned software architect, and a B2B product designer. No account managers. You own the code.

Operational reality · Diagnostic Checklist

Sound familiar? Four operational leaks that drain margins daily

If two or more of these happen in your business every week, your team is losing billable hours to manual rework:

Leak 01

Measurements trapped in notebooks and chats

Site dimensions are manually retyped into spreadsheets. Discrepancies and missing specs only surface after material is already cut, ordered, or installed incorrectly.

Leak 02

Single overloaded estimator holding all pricing formulas

Every quote depends on one senior person's 40-tab workbook. While they calculate takeoffs by hand, proposals stall and high-margin bids miss client deadlines.

Leak 03

Untracked cutting waste & untraceable damage claims

Excess offcut scrap, rework, and supplier freight damage silently drain gross margin without being traceable back to a specific order, technician, or vendor.

Leak 04

Per-seat SaaS tax for software your team half uses

Monthly subscription costs balloon as your team grows, yet field crews and shop managers still fall back to personal spreadsheets to do the actual daily work.

What do manual processes cost you per year?

Four inputs, two minutes, a transparent payback range.

Capabilities

What we build

Quote and estimate calculators

From on-site measurements and supplier price lists to a customer-ready quote, with cutting waste, labor multipliers and margin rules calculated automatically.

Operational CRM & workspaces

Clients, orders, dispatch schedules, documents, staff roles and operational reports in a single relational database your company owns outright.

Client and dealer portals

Allow clients and sub-dealers to check live job status, review quotes, and submit warranty claims directly without endless phone tag and email chains.

Integrations & AI workflow automation

Read supplier invoices, parse customer intake documents and route urgent requests into queues with strict human review and calculation code.

Interactive blueprints & case studies

Working systems you can inspect

Interactive prototypes and production software. Each one is labeled: client project, prior work or reference build.

Delivery methodology

From manual process to working system

01

Operations Audit

5–7 working days

We map your operational bottlenecks and build a clickable core-flow prototype (5–6 screens) so your team can test the workflow before any code is written.

02

Written Scope & Fixed Quote

Included in audit

You receive a written build specification detailing every screen, business rule, and integration, paired with a locked fixed-price quote. Yours to keep, whoever builds it.

03

Build

2–12 weeks

Relational data schema modeled in week 1, followed by live working demos every 1–2 weeks with fast async feedback loops. A micro-system takes 2–4 weeks and a core operational CRM (Phase 1 Release) 6–12 weeks.

04

Support

Monthly, optional

Zero software license lock-in: your system runs autonomously on your cloud server with no mandatory fees to us. Optional Care plans cover external 3rd-party API/webhook changes, server maintenance, and iterative updates for teams without in-house DevOps.

Step 1 · 5–7 days

Operations Audit

from $1,000
100% upfront · Credited toward CRM build

Workflow bottleneck mapping, clickable core-flow prototype (5–6 screens), and a written fixed-price build specification. Yours to keep, whoever builds it.

Audit fee: Over $1,000 only if we review multiple workflows. 100% credited toward the CRM build ($15k–$35k) if you start within 60 days.

Step 2 · 2–4 weeks

AI Workflow Automation

$3,500–$9,000
50% at kickoff, 50% at launch

AI steps built into the tools you already use — supplier invoices, POs, claims, or field notes parsed and validated with a human review queue.

1 end-to-end document or message workflow, deterministic validation rules, human sign-off queue, tested on your historical data.

Step 3 · 2–4 weeks

Focused Micro-System

$5,000–$8,000
50% at kickoff, 50% at launch

One painful process automated: a custom quote calculator, a damage claims portal or a dispatch tracker. Built around your real formulas and team roles.

1 workflow, 2 roles (e.g. estimator / admin), automated PDFs, 1 integration, structured data import.

Step 4 · 6–12 weeks

Core Operational CRM

$15,000–$35,000
30% at kickoff, 40% at the midpoint demo, 30% at launch

Core Operational CRM (Phase 1 Release): Clients, orders, jobs, documents and team reporting unified in one relational system. 1–2 integrations included.

Migration of active records via structured import templates (deep cleanup of multi-year legacy spreadsheets is scoped separately). Client and partner portals are add-ons, quoted separately.

Optional Post-Launch Support · Month-to-Month$500 / $1,500/mo · Cancel with 30 days' notice · Your system runs without a plan

System Care & Growth Plans

Proactive uptime monitoring, 3rd-party API/model updates, prompt tuning, and reserved engineering hours (up to 8 hrs/mo on Care or 18 hrs/mo on Growth).

The code lives in your repository from day one; full ownership transfers on final payment. Hosting is paid directly to your cloud provider (typically $20–$100/month). Timelines start once we have access to your data and key operators.
Clear distinction

Why teams choose us over an agency or off-the-shelf SaaS

We agree scope and price before the build starts

No license fees. You own the code and the data

You talk directly to the architect who builds your system

A system built around your process

Not sure you need custom software? If an off-the-shelf tool already fits, we'll tell you on the first call.
Founders

Two founders lead your system

Direct accountability. You talk to the people who design the architecture, model the database and write the production code.

Anton Horbenko

Anton Horbenko

Co-founder & Principal Architect

Started as a process engineer, with two years at a manufacturing plant, then spent 9+ years designing web applications and internal business systems. Anton leads database design, integrations, security and deployment, and approaches a business process the way an engineer approaches a production line: map the route, set the tolerances, remove the steps that add no value.

Olha Yevtushenko

Olha Yevtushenko

Co-founder & Lead Product Designer

8+ years designing complex B2B interfaces: CRMs, point-of-sale systems, operational dashboards and data-heavy internal tools. Olha designs for the people who use a system all day — an estimator at a desk, a dispatcher on three phone lines, a technician on a phone on site — so the right action is the obvious one and the wrong one is hard to make.

Complex B2B workflowsMobile & field UXData visualization
Two founders plus one senior developer: Anton and Olha personally architect, design, and review every system, with one senior developer joining when parallel speed is needed (introduced to you before work begins) — paired with standard PostgreSQL/Docker architecture and a full Runbook so your business never faces single-person dependency.
AI-assisted, engineer-reviewed: We build with AI tooling for routine scaffolding and boilerplate. The engineer who designs your system writes and reviews its code.

Frequently asked questions

Straightforward answers on fixed pricing, delivery timelines, code ownership, and post-launch support.

Audit from $1,000. AI workflow automation $3,500–$9,000. Micro-systems $5,000–$8,000. A core operational CRM (Phase 1 Release) $15,000–$35,000. You get an exact fixed quote at the end of the audit, before you commit to a build.
Audit 5–7 working days, AI workflow or micro-system 2–4 weeks, core CRM 6–12 weeks. The build clock starts at kickoff once we have access to your APIs, sample exports, and designated process owner.
If an off-the-shelf tool fits your process, use it and we'll tell you so on the first call. Custom software makes sense when your process is specific (complex formulas, physical materials, bespoke workflows) and you pay high recurring per-seat fees for features you never use. You pay once for the build, then only for hosting and optional support.
Yes. You receive complete source code, PostgreSQL database schemas, and Docker deployment pipelines with 100% code ownership in your Git repository. No license fees: any competent developer can take it over.
Your system runs in your own cloud account or server (Hetzner, DigitalOcean, AWS or private VPS). Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is role-based, and key actions are logged immutably. We sign an NDA on request, and a DPA for EU clients.
Yes. Standard cloud integrations (QuickBooks Online, Xero, Stripe, Shopify, Google Workspace, or documented REST APIs/webhooks). We verify all integration endpoints during the audit so your fixed quote covers them cleanly.
No. We automate one core process at a time, next to the systems you already run. That is how we keep scope fixed, budgets predictable and delivery measured in weeks rather than quarters.
Then we tell you directly on the walkthrough call and recommend simpler automations or off-the-shelf tools. The process map, prototype, and written build scope are yours to keep either way.
One designated process owner who can make decisions, 2–3 hours total during the audit sprint for interviews and walkthrough, and sample operational files: past quotes, orders or spreadsheets.
Next step

Show us one bottleneck. In 5–7 days you'll test it as a clickable prototype.

Start with an Operations Audit. We map one bottleneck, build a clickable prototype and give you an exact fixed quote before you commit to development.

We'll review your process and email you within 1 business day with next steps or a calendar invite.
