built around how your business actually runs
off-the-shelf software fits the average business. yours isn't average — that's why there's still a spreadsheet holding part of it together.
custom software is for when nothing on the menu is the shape of your problem: the multi-brand ordering system on my work page exists because no ordering product could split one cart into a ticket and payout per kitchen. that unusual middle part is most of what i build.
starting at $3,500 · written fixed quote before any work starts · based in california, working with businesses across the u.s.
sounds familiar?
- you've outgrown the spreadsheet that runs part of the business
- off-the-shelf tools each do 70% of what you need
- your industry has a workflow no product understands
- you're paying for five subscriptions to approximate one system
what i build for this
- operations systems designed around your real workflow
- web apps your team logs into every day
- the database, accounts, permissions and reports underneath
- migrations off the spreadsheet without losing history
- one system replacing several almost-right subscriptions
proof, not promises
multi-brand ordering
one cart across many restaurant brands; the server re-prices every line, splits a ticket per vendor and computes each vendor's fee. no off-the-shelf product does that.

how do i know custom is worth it vs off-the-shelf?
if an existing product does 90% of what you need, buy it — i'll tell you so in the free call. custom wins when the missing 30% is the part your business actually runs on.
what does custom software cost?
full builds start at $3,500 and scale with scope. quotes are written and fixed, with staged payments tied to milestones you can see working.
what happens if you get hit by a bus?
the code, repo, accounts and documentation are in your name from day one. any competent developer can pick it up — nothing is set up to make me irreplaceable.
