SaaS platforms, web applications, internal tools, and admin dashboards for operations that outgrew off-the-shelf.
iOS, Android, and React Native builds for the parts of the operation that happen away from a desk.
Storefronts for businesses selling direct as well as through distribution, on Shopify or a headless build.
Marketplace setup, listings, and A+ content, with Google and Meta advertising and SEO behind them.
London's economy runs on operations at scale: agri-food moving product across the province, manufacturers, health care, and the employers clustered around Western and Fanshawe. Businesses like these rarely fail for lack of software. They get slowed by software that was never built for them.
The recurring shape is an operation held together by an off-the-shelf tool doing eighty percent of the job, a spreadsheet doing the rest, and one person who understands how the two connect. It works until volume doubles or that person leaves. The cost shows up as slow reporting, retyped data, and decisions made on numbers nobody fully trusts.
That is the custom software side of what we do: SaaS platforms, custom web applications, internal tools and admin dashboards, mobile apps where the work happens away from a desk, and automation for the repetitive parts. Built on a normal stack so the next team can maintain it, and documented as it goes.
For businesses selling product, the ecommerce and Amazon work runs alongside it: Shopify and headless builds, listings, A+ content, and the advertising behind both.
A CAD $120,000 developer costs roughly $155,000 a year once payroll costs, recruiting, equipment, and ramp-up are counted, and buys about 160 usable hours a month whether you use them or not. Here is the honest comparison against a $5,000 monthly retainer, including the cases where hiring wins.
Read the guide →Since January 1, 2021, Ontario organizations with 50 or more employees in Ontario must make their public websites conform to WCAG 2.0 Level AA under the AODA. Here is who it covers, what it actually requires, and how to check your site.
Read the guide →The automations that pay back fastest are the ones where someone today reads something and retypes it somewhere else: product data, supplier documents, support replies and weekly reports. A well-chosen first automation costs CAD $10,000 to $30,000 to build and removes a recurring task within weeks. A chatbot on the homepage is usually the wrong place to start.

What we would build, in what order, what it costs, and what we would not build yet.
Working software you can click, every week, until it is doing the job. Then we keep it running.
That is a common first project. We map what the spreadsheet actually does, build the parts that need to be software, and leave the rest alone rather than forcing a system nobody asked for.
Usually yes, through its API. Keeping a working system and modernizing the layer your staff and customers touch is lower risk and lower cost than replacing it wholesale.
Yes, iOS, Android, and React Native, most often for work that happens in a plant, a vehicle, or a field rather than at a desk.
We build on a conventional stack with documentation and tests as we go, and hand over repositories, infrastructure, and runbooks. We build for handover from the start, whether that is to your first in-house hire or to another team.
Book time with James and bring the problem costing you the most. If it is not worth building, we will say so on the call.
