What we build.
Sites that book the work, stores that sell, and the software a business runs on.
-
Starter package
Starter
The site most businesses need: a few pages that say plainly what you do, and a booking that fills the calendar without a phone call.
For- A business whose customers book a time — a clinic, a salon, a studio, a trade.
- A business with no site, or one that is slow, hard to edit, or years out of date.
- Anyone who needs to be found, understood and contacted, without selling online.
-
Entrepreneurial
Ecommerce
A shop that is yours: your catalogue, your checkout, your orders and your customer list, on your own domain and in your own admin.
For- A business selling products it holds, ships or hands over.
- A business on a marketplace or a social page that wants a shop of its own.
- A business that sells both time and things, and wants one place for the two.
-
Ambitious · Starts with discovery
Venture
When the software is the business, or the thing the business runs on. It starts with a paid discovery, because a Venture build is not a price until it is scoped — and a number given before that is a guess.
For- A product with paying users: accounts, organisations, subscriptions and the admin behind them.
- A company or a ministry running on records, documents, approvals and an audit trail.
- A tender or an RFP for an information system.
- Systems that should talk to each other, and the work that moves between them.

Before you ask
Questions
Can you take card payments where my business is?
Almost certainly. Where Stripe is available to your business — the US, the UK, most of Europe — it is the default. It is not available to businesses registered in Trinidad and Tobago or elsewhere in the Caribbean, so there the store uses a regional gateway such as WiPay, or a bank’s own gateway where US dollars have to be kept. The processor’s fees and approval are the processor’s; setting it up is ours, and it is a line on the scope.
What currency are your prices in?
Prices are set in US dollars — one list, the same wherever you are — and shown in your country’s currency at a published rate, with the rate and its date beside them. Where we have no sourced rate for a currency yet, the list stays in US dollars and says so. Which currency an invoice is settled in is agreed in the written scope.
Why does a Venture build start with paid discovery?
Because a Venture build is not a price until it is scoped, and a number given before that is a guess. Discovery produces the architecture, the flows, a clickable prototype of the key screens and a fixed-price build plan. Its fee comes off the build if it goes ahead.
What if what I need isn’t one of these?
Start from the closest, or from Venture’s “something else”, and say what’s different in the notes — or skip the builder and describe it in the written form. Nothing is refused at the first step.
Do you respond to tenders and RFPs?
For information systems, yes. Send the tender through the builder’s Venture route, as a tender; it is read for fit and eligibility before anything is quoted.
What does it cost to keep it running?
Hosting, domains and third-party services are billed to you directly, at their price. A care plan covers the looking-after — updates, monitoring, backups and small changes — for a monthly fee, and it is optional.
