Product, apps and software for startups and SMEs.

You need a product built fast and built well, and you want to check that the studio really knows how to ship software. The answer is four products in production and two clients: Jorganise.com and Keepsmap. The same person scopes, designs, builds and launches.

What is not working today, for most founders who contact us.

Four situations we find at almost every startup and SME that calls us.

The agency quote says nothing about what happens after launch

A price to ship, nothing to run. Six months later, a dependency has broken, the store demands an update, nobody answers. We run four pieces of software: we know what a product costs after release, and we write it into the quote before you discover it.

The first version tries to do everything

An app that has to cover ten use cases at release never ships, or ships too late to be tested. We cut the first version down to what lets you check the main hypothesis with real users, and we plan the rest in batches.

Design and development do not talk to each other

Approved mockups, then outsourced development that delivers an approximate version of them. Here, the person who designs the screens is the one who codes them. What is presented is what is delivered.

The code belongs to someone else

Repository at the provider, hosting in their name, database out of reach. Changing provider becomes a rewrite. We deliver on accounts in your name, from the first payment.

What we do for a startup or an SME.

Three workstreams, on the stack of our own products: Next.js, Supabase, Flutter, Firebase, Stripe, Vercel.

A web product

A site, a platform or a customer area on Next.js and Supabase, payments through Stripe. Fast, indexable, hosted on Vercel on an account in your name. Jorganise.com, event organisation and social media management, is one example.

Website design

A mobile app

iOS and Android from a single Flutter codebase, published on the stores and maintained after launch. We publish our own apps (Swapp) and our clients’ (Keepsmap, mapping).

Mobile app

A business tool

A tool that replaces the spreadsheet and the messaging group, designed from how the work is actually done. Maintenance and improvements planned for; code and data yours.

Custom software

Projects delivered in this sector.

Two clients, two kinds of product. The detailed case studies are coming.

Jorganise.com

Frequently asked questions.

How can we check that you know how to ship software?

Install Swapp, watch NightBook running at a client’s venue, read the case studies. Four products in production, with real users, are worth more than a portfolio of mockups.

How long for a first version?

In order of magnitude: 8 to 14 weeks for a mobile app published on the stores, from 8 weeks for custom software depending on scope, 5 to 8 weeks for a site with a publishing interface. The schedule is set during scoping, on the exact scope.

Who owns the code?

You do, from the first payment. Repository, database and hosting are in your name. If we disappeared tomorrow, your product keeps running.

Can you take over an existing product?

Yes, after an audit. If taking it over costs more than a rewrite, we tell you, with figures.

A product to build, or to take over?

Describe what it must do in its first version and who it is for. We reply within two working days.
