Web Apps
Web Apps & Custom Development
When your website needs to do more than inform - take bookings, log in customers, crunch numbers, or talk to the tools you already run on - you need an application, not just pages. We design and build that custom functionality on a fast, modern foundation.
What we build
Functionality beyond a brochure site.
A brochure site tells people about your business. These are the features that let people do business with you - the parts of a site that quietly save your team hours and turn visitors into customers.
Booking & scheduling
Let customers book appointments, tables, classes, or service calls right from your site - synced to your calendar, with confirmations and reminders that cut down on no-shows.
Customer portals
Give clients a secure place to log in, see their account, exchange documents, track progress, and pay - instead of an endless thread of emails and attachments.
Dashboards & reporting
Turn the numbers you already collect into clear, live dashboards your team can actually read - so decisions come from the data, not from a gut feel.
Calculators & tools
Quote estimators, pricing calculators, eligibility checkers, and configurators that answer a visitor’s real question on the spot - and capture a qualified lead while they’re engaged.
Integrations & automation
Connect your site to the CRM, payment processor, scheduler, or spreadsheet you already use, so information flows automatically instead of being re-typed by hand.
Member areas & gated content
Memberships, subscriptions, courses, and members-only resources behind a clean, reliable login that you control.
How we approach it
Scope, prototype, build, iterate.
Custom software goes sideways when teams start coding before they agree on what they’re building. We work in a clear order that keeps the expensive surprises out.
-
Scope
We start with the job to be done, not a feature wish-list. We map who uses it, what has to happen, and where it connects - then write a clear, fixed scope so there are no surprises later.
-
Prototype
Before we build the real thing, you click through a working prototype of the key flows. Changing a screen is far cheaper than rewriting code, so we get the shape right while it’s still easy to change.
-
Build
We build on a modern, secure foundation in working increments you can review as we go. You’re never left waiting months to finally see something real.
-
Iterate
Software is never truly “done.” Once it’s live we watch how it’s actually used, smooth the rough edges, and add what earns its place - at a pace that fits your budget.
Who it’s for
Any local business that’s outgrown a brochure site.
If customers keep asking for something your current website can’t do, you’re who we build for. We work with any kind of local business - not one narrow industry. A few of the ways it tends to look:
Restaurants & hospitality
Online reservations, waitlists, and pre-orders that keep tables full.
Home services & contractors
Instant quote requests and job scheduling that book work while you’re still on site.
Healthcare & dental
Patient booking, intake forms, and reminders that keep the schedule full.
Professional services
Secure client portals for documents, status updates, and payments.
Retail & e-commerce
Customer accounts, inventory, and loyalty that bring buyers back.
Fitness & wellness
Class schedules, memberships, and check-ins your members manage themselves.
Law firms
Credible, persuasive sites for every practice area - from personal injury to estate planning - built to win the click and the consult.
Spas & wellness
Calming design with online booking that keeps treatment rooms full.
SaaS & software
Product-led marketing sites and app UIs that turn visitors into signups.
Membership & community
Member portals, gated content, and join flows that grow a community.
Marketplaces
Multi-vendor storefronts where sellers list and buyers check out with confidence.
Directories & listings
Fast search and clean, scannable listings people come back to use.
Nonprofits
Mission-forward design with a frictionless path to donate and volunteer.
Events & conferences
Energetic design, a clear schedule, and easy registration that fills seats.
Real estate
Polished listings, quick tour requests, and neighborhood guides that draw buyers.
Education & courses
Browsable course catalogs and a simple path to enroll.
Creative & portfolio
Bold, gallery-forward portfolios that let the work lead.
Media & publishing
Confident editorial design built first for comfortable reading.
Don’t see your line of work? It almost certainly still applies. If you can describe what you wish your site could do, we can tell you whether it’s worth building.
