Regulation designed in
VAT, archiving and 2027 e-invoicing are in the design, not in an addendum.
CUSTOM SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
When off-the-shelf software falls short, we build the right tool.
Show us the process that no off-the-shelf tool covers. We shape the smallest version people can use in real work, then grow it safely.
What we build
What the system needs to handle
01
Custom internal systems
Orders, inventory, approvals, reporting. Built for the process you actually run, with nothing bolted on for show.
02
Replacing SaaS that never fit
When an off-the-shelf tool covers only part of the work and the rest stays manual, we compare its cost and limits with a custom build.
03
Integrations between systems
We connect accounting, banking, your store and internal tools so nobody retypes data.
04
Taking over inherited code
The system runs, its author is gone and nobody will touch it. We map it and take it on.
Software is built in the details.
Architecture, implementation, and quality stay under one technical owner throughout delivery. Every decision also has to hold up in production.
Who this is for
When this makes sense
- First step
- 2-4 weeks for initial analysis, a process prototype, and clear pilot boundaries.
The process has multiple roles, states, approvals, or external systems.
You need a custom workflow, not just an off-the-shelf SaaS tool.
Auditability, security, and long-term extensibility matter.
Proof · HR and payroll
Personnel and payroll system
Over 500 employees. We helped extend HR workflows on the open-source Horilla base and split out a Slovak payroll engine. The client system is confidential, so these screens are the Horilla demo.
- Project type
- Confidential HR and payroll platform
- Our role
- We did not build the system from scratch. We extended the open Horilla platform with Slovak payroll logic and statutory reporting.

Before commissioning the work
Get clear before you commit.
Review the risks, cost and terms of working together.
How we work
A delivery you can inspect
The initial analysis ends with a written document you can hand to a third party. We invoice against milestones, not against hope.
The code is yours
We hand over the repository, documentation, and access at launch. You can continue with us or another team.
One person, one accountability
You talk to whoever writes the code. No management layer between the brief and the build.
Decision brief · Custom software development
A validated pilot of one workflow with roles, data, and clear boundaries for further development.
A manual process, spreadsheets, or disconnected tools cause errors, re-entry, and unclear ownership.

Quick estimate
What does manual work cost?
Three values are enough for a first estimate. The result updates instantly.
Indicative annual cost
€40,250.00 / year
A cost model using 46 working weeks, not guaranteed savings.
What we need from the client
- • A description of the current process, exceptions, and decision owner.
- • Representative inputs, integration needs, and access rules.

When custom software is not the answer
A simple presentation website without a custom process is enough.
The process is not described and there is no clear decision owner yet.
Questions
Before we start building
When an off-the-shelf tool covers only part of the process and the workarounds now cost too much time or create too many errors. We compare simpler options first.
It follows the process, team, integrations, and operation. We explain the choice in the architecture proposal so a future supplier can understand it too.
We agree security requirements around the sensitivity of the data and the operation. Access is limited to what is needed, changes are tested, and recovery is agreed before launch.
