Our software development stack

Our software development spans bespoke desktop tools to cross-platform apps, built end to end. A selection of what we deliver:

Desktop applications

Responsive Qt interfaces with a native look and feel on every platform.

Server & backend

High-throughput services and daemons engineered for reliability under load.

Cross-platform builds

One CMake codebase targeting Windows, Linux, and macOS with native packaging.

Performance engineering

Multithreading, memory tuning, and profiling where milliseconds matter.

Data & integrations

SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MySQL, plus REST and third-party API integration.

Ship & support

Installers, CI/CD pipelines, full source, and 30 days of bug fixes after delivery.

Our Process

1

Discovery & Planning

We dig into your requirements and the people who will use the software, then agree the scope, success metrics, and milestones before any code is written.

2

Architecture & Design

We design a scalable architecture and data model, and produce a technical blueprint built for performance and long-term maintainability.

3

Development

We build in modern C/C++ and Qt with clean, documented code, sharing regular progress and working demos so you always know where things stand.

4

Testing & Quality Assurance

We test rigorously for correctness, security, and performance across every target platform and scenario, so the software is solid before it ships.

5

Deployment & Support

We deploy to production, hand over full source and documentation, and provide ongoing support for monitoring, updates, and optimisation.

F.A.Q About Software Development

What types of software do you build?
We build custom desktop and server applications in C/C++ and Qt: internal business tools, data-heavy desktop software, cross-platform clients, and server-side components. If you have a specific, performance-sensitive product in mind, we will design a solution around it.
How long does a software development project take?
It depends on scope and complexity. After an initial consultation we assess your requirements and give you a realistic timeline with clear milestones before any work begins.
Which technologies and frameworks do you use?
We specialise in modern C/C++ and Qt for high-performance desktop and server software, with CMake for cross-platform builds and SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MySQL for data. We choose the right tools for your requirements rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all stack.
Can you integrate with our existing systems?
Yes. We regularly build software that integrates with existing databases, REST and third-party APIs, and legacy systems. We assess your current setup up front and design an integration approach that fits it.
How do you ensure the software is secure?
Security is built in from the start: secure coding practices, input validation, encryption in transit and at rest where appropriate, and sensible access controls to protect your data and users.
Do you provide ongoing support and maintenance?
Every engagement includes 30 days of bug fixes after delivery. Beyond that, we offer ongoing support and maintenance on a package or per-project basis: monitoring, updates, and feature enhancements.
Will we own the code you write?
Yes. On final payment you own all the custom code and intellectual property we create for you, delivered with full source and documentation.
What happens if we need changes after launch?
We are here for the long term. Whether it is a bug fix, a new feature, or an optimisation, we can keep working with you through a support package or on a project basis.
How does the quote process work?
Tell us about your project and pick the option that fits. We review it and send you a tailored, fixed-scope quote, usually within one business day. It is free and there is no obligation.
Is there any commitment when I request a quote?
None at all. A quote is free and non-binding. Work only begins once you approve the scope and we agree terms in writing.
How is the price determined?
Every project is different, so we price each engagement based on its scope and requirements. Your quote is a fixed price for the agreed scope, with no surprise charges.
How are payments handled once I accept?
Once you approve the quote, we send a secure invoice. Payment terms, including any milestone or deposit options, are agreed in writing before work starts.
