Custom-built tools

Custom app development

An app built around how your business actually runs — for your team, your customers, or both. Spots are limited, so it starts with a detailed application.

From $7,500Apply to build

When off-the-shelf software doesn't fit, build the thing that does. I design and build custom apps around how your business actually runs — for your team, your customers, or both.

Sound familiar?

You're running a core part of the business out of spreadsheets, and it's breaking.

You pay for three tools that each do part of the job — and none do it properly.

Your team has workarounds for their workarounds.

You've looked for software that does exactly what you need, and it doesn't exist.

You have an idea for something your customers would pay for.

Things I've built

Membership billing platform

Built from scratch — recurring billing, member management and the whole engine behind a membership business. It powers The Local Biz Club today.

The Backroom App

A Shopify app that turns a year of messy sales data into a real buy plan — goals, seasonal open-to-buy, vendor reorders and dead-stock alerts. Coming soon to the Shopify App Store.

This client portal

Projects, files, invoices, hours, applications and checkout for my own clients — the one you're using right now.

What I build

Web apps that work on a computer, phone or tablet, like:

Client portals

Projects, files, invoices and requests in one place for your customers.

Membership platforms

Members, content, payments and logins.

Internal tools

Job tracking, ordering, scheduling, inventory, reporting.

Customer-facing apps

Bookings, accounts, ordering — anything your customers do with you.

What's included

Planning and scoping

We pin down exactly what it needs to do, and what can wait.

Design and build

Screens that make sense to the people using them, built on solid foundations.

Logins, payments and data

Accounts, secure storage and payments where you need them.

Connections to your programs

Your store, POS, accounting, calendar or email, where it makes sense.

Testing and launch

Tried properly before real people rely on it.

Handover

Training for you and your team — and ongoing support if you want it.

Who it's for

Businesses with a process that off-the-shelf software can't handle.

Owners ready to invest in something that saves time or earns money for years.

Founders with an app idea and a clear picture of who it's for.

Just need your existing programs to work together? AI & automation implementation might be all you need.

How it works

Apply

The application is detailed on purpose — the more you tell me, the better I can scope it.

I review it

Spots are limited. If it's a fit, we book a call to scope it properly.

Your proposal

What I'll build, in what order, and the price.

Sign and start

Contract and 50% deposit here in your portal.

Build

In stages, with previews so you see it take shape.

Launch

Tested, live, handed over — and the final 50%.

The details

From $7,500 CAD, scoped per project. The exact price depends on what it needs to do and who uses it — you'll see it in your proposal before you commit to anything. Half to start, half at launch.
