When your business needs software, not just a website: booking flows and customer portals, online ordering and payments, member areas, and the internal tools that replace a spreadsheet.

How it starts
A free discovery, then a fixed scope.
Every application starts with a free discovery call: how the work is done today, who would use the software, and what it has to do to be worth building. From that comes a written scope with a price and a timeline, before any code.
I'm in my fourth year of software engineering at UVic, and I build software as well as websites. The monitoring behind the care plan, which checks every site on it twice a month, is one of mine, and so is On the Roadside's iPhone app, on the App Store since October 2026.

Questions, answered.
Anything else on your mind? Ask me.
-
Nothing. It's how the scope and the price get written, and you're under no obligation after it.
-
From $5,000, depending on what it has to do. The scope fixes the price before work starts, and anything added later is quoted first.
-
Yes. The code is yours and handed over on GitHub, and the accounts it runs on can be in your name.
-
Usually. Most tools a small business runs on, from booking and payments to email lists and spreadsheets, can be connected. The discovery call is where that gets checked.
-
Yes. A web application can go on the App Store as an iPhone app, the way On the Roadside did: the same code in a native shell, signed, built in the cloud and taken through Apple's review. Apple decides what goes on the store, so the scope plans for a round or two of review, and the discovery call is where we work out whether an app is worth it for you.
