A few of the ways we help. Every business is different, so the work always starts with understanding you.
-
Ideas, built
Turn an idea into software your team and customers use every day.
-
Old and new, together
Connect the systems you rely on, however old, with the tools you use today.
-
Made for how you work
Software that fits the way your business runs, not the other way round.
-
Looked after, long term
Kept running, secure and improving as your business grows.
That’s only a start. Tell us what you have in mind.
Start with a discovery morning.
We spend a morning with you, at your premises or by video, learning how the business runs and where time goes. Afterwards, we come back to you with a clear, written plan of what’s worth building, and what isn’t.

“We genuinely love what we do. Getting to know a business, solving the problems that matter to them, and being there as they grow. Those relationships are what we enjoy most.”
Need a website too?
We build and host websites on truffleweb, our own platform, and look after them for you, with changes made whenever you ask.
Things people ask.
- What kind of businesses do you work with?
- All kinds, right across Scotland, from growing firms to long-established ones, in every sector. If you have an idea, or systems that could work harder for you, we’d like to hear about it.
- What happens in a discovery morning?
- We spend a morning with you, at your premises or by video, whichever suits. We learn how the business runs, where time goes and what could work better. Afterwards, we come back to you with a clear, written plan of what’s worth building and what isn’t. The morning and the plan are both free, with no obligation.
- How much does bespoke software cost?
- It depends on what it needs to do, so we don’t guess. After a discovery morning you get a fixed proposal, with the scope, phases and price set out before anything starts. You can pay in stages, or a lower amount upfront plus a monthly fee. The chat and the discovery morning are free.
- What happens after it’s built?
- Most software needs looking after once it’s live: hosting, monitoring, security, updates, and changes as your business changes. We do all of that as software care, so you never have to deal with it, and you talk to the people who built it.
- Will I own the software?
- Yes. The software we write for you, and your data, are yours. If you ever want to leave, we hand it all over. No exit fee, nothing held hostage.
- Do I have to use AI?
- No. It’s completely optional. If you’d like to use it, we’ll find where it genuinely saves time, set it up safely with the right settings for your information, and keep a person in charge of anything that goes out.
- Do we need to meet in person?
- Only if you’d like to. We can come to you for a discovery morning, or do it all by video. Day to day, most of our work happens online.
