Custom software

Custom software development for Hong Kong teams

When spreadsheets, paper forms and off-the-shelf tools stop fitting, we build the system around how your team already works: portals, case records, CRM, HR, booking and reports.

Signs you've outgrown spreadsheets

  • The same data is typed into three different spreadsheets.
  • Nobody is sure which file is the latest version.
  • Reports for management or funders take days to put together.
  • Off-the-shelf software makes your team work its way, not yours.

What we build

  • Staff and client portals

    One login for staff, clients or members, with different access for each role.

  • Case and member records

    Every follow-up, note and document in one place, with the full history.

  • Dashboards and reports

    Up-to-date numbers for management and funders, instead of month-end spreadsheet work.

  • Online forms and assessments

    Replace paper forms with checks people can fill in on their phone.

  • Connected to your tools

    Gmail, Google Sheets, WhatsApp and your existing software, so nobody types the same data twice.

  • Secure documents

    Collect and store documents online, with each role seeing only what it should.

How much does custom software cost?

Custom systems are priced by scope. We start with a written plan: features, timeline and a budget range. Clear projects get a fixed price per milestone. If your needs are still changing, we work by the hour under a price cap and report every week.

How does a project work?

We reply within 1 business day. Then every project, big or small, follows the same five steps.

  1. Step 1: Plan

    A short call, then a written list of features, a timeline and a budget range.

  2. Step 2: Design

    Screens your staff and customers can click through before we build.

  3. Step 3: Build

    We deliver in milestones, with a working version to test every week.

  4. Step 4: Launch

    Go live with guides, training videos and the code in your account.

  5. Step 5: Grow

    Monthly support or help when you need it, from the same team.

What you can count on

  • A written plan before any code

    Features, timeline and budget range agreed first. No surprise bills.

  • Fixed prices, or a price cap

    Clear projects get a fixed price per milestone. Changing ones get a cap and weekly updates.

  • Something to try every week

    You test real software as it grows, not slides.

  • The same people from start to finish

    The designers and engineers who plan it also build it and support it.

  • You own 100% of the code

    Source code, database design and design files are yours. It's in the contract.

  • Guides your team can use

    Written guides and videos, so your staff or any other vendor can run it.

Common questions

Should we build custom software or buy an off-the-shelf tool?

If an existing tool fits how you work, buy it, and we will tell you so. Custom software makes sense when your process is what sets you apart, when you pay for several tools that don't talk to each other, or when you need full control of the data.

How much does custom software cost in Hong Kong?

It depends on scope. After a short call we send a written feature list, timeline and budget range. Clear projects get a fixed price per milestone; changing ones work by the hour under a price cap.

Can it connect to the systems we already use?

Yes. We connect to tools such as Gmail, Google Sheets and WhatsApp, and to your existing software where it offers an API.

Can we start small?

Yes. Many clients start with one workflow, such as a form or a report, and add to it once their team is using it.

Do you train our staff?

Yes. At launch you get written guides and training videos, so your staff, or any other vendor, can run the system.

Who owns the code?

You do. Once the milestones are paid, the source code, database design and design files move to your account. This is written into the contract.
