Custom Software for Business-Critical Applications

An application whose failure would be a real blow, whether because revenue depends on it, a department can’t function without it, or because legal deadlines hinge on it. Software like this needs more than just working code: it needs a well-thought-out architecture, real test coverage, reliable operation, and someone who will still be available five years from now.

No, we're deliberately selective. We're at our best on projects with unusual technical or organizational demands.

If it turns out during the conversation that an off-the-shelf product solves your problem just as well, we'll tell you. Saying no to the wrong projects is why we deliver on the right ones.

We start with an informal conversation to understand your goals and challenges. We then put together a transparent quote and work closely with you on the right solution, from the first working version through to long-term operations.

The project doesn't end at go-live: Many of the applications we built years ago are still in active development with us, running on our own infrastructure.

Our quotes are customized and depend on the scope of the project, but we communicate transparently from the very beginning about what is possible within your budget. We don’t issue flat-rate price lists. Instead, from the outset we’ll give you a transparent, goal-based offer that fits your budget. You can find information on how to calculate software costs on our blog and in our whitepaper on software cost assessment.

It depends. We can often deliver an MVP in just a few weeks. A complex digitization project can take several months, and with business-critical applications, go-live is usually the start of ongoing development rather than the end of the project. We work iteratively and coordinate closely with you, so you see results early on and maintain control over costs and priorities at all times.

We are technological sparring partners who think ahead, question things, and take responsibility. Our goal isn't just to „build“ something, but to create the right solution that works in the long term.

The application is yours. You can bring it in-house or move to a different provider whenever you want.

That has a side effect we're comfortable with: you stay because you want to, not because you're stuck. For software your core business depends on, we think that's the only defensible arrangement.

Absolutely! The initial consultation is always free. We'll listen to your idea, give you honest feedback, and tell you openly whether we can help or whether another approach might be better suited.
