Develop custom software
Applications built to your requirements rather than to a package's assumptions — ERP, point of sale, portals and internal tools. On a modern, boring, maintainable stack any competent developer can pick up in five years' time.

What we do
Develop. Automate. Scale. Launch.
Four things, done properly. We take the process you already run on spreadsheets, paper books and WhatsApp, and turn it into a system that holds up under load.
Automate your operations
The repeat work goes away. Quote to invoice, stock to ledger, service due to reminder sent — the handoffs that leak money get wired together and logged.
Scale and lift productivity
Numbers you can act on, and fewer people needed to produce them. Utilisation, aging debtors, revenue per asset, downtime — straight off live operational data, not a month-end reconstruction.
Launch your app idea
Got the idea but not the build? We take it from a conversation to a working product — scoped, costed, built and shipped, with you owning the code at the end of it.
Flagship product
HIRE IQ — the hire desk, the fleet and the ledger in one system.
An ERP and point-of-sale platform for equipment, vehicle and plant hire businesses. Everything from the counter scan to the SARS-compliant invoice, with the compliance layer South African operators actually need.
- Fleet & equipment register — every unit as available, on hire, reserved, in maintenance or decommissioned, with full history.
- Maintenance reminders — services flagged before they fall due, by date or by recorded usage, per unit.
- Counter POS — barcode and QR scanning, fast checkout, pre-hire checklists and digital contract signing.
- Book-out and return — expected return dates, damage and cleaning charges calculated on the return workflow.
- SA compliance built in — 15% VAT, SARS-structured invoices, AARTO fine redirection and POPIA consent handling.
- Debtor and creditor ledgers — live balances, credit-limit warnings, aging reports and statements.

Design preview of work in progress. HIRE IQ has not been commercially released and this is not a screenshot of a live installation.
- Sells with the internet down — the catalogue is cached on the till and every sale is written locally before anything else can fail.
- Real hardware — barcode scanners, thermal and serial receipt printers, cash drawers.
- Stock that knows its age — batch and expiry tracking, oldest-expiring stock sold first.
- SARS-shaped from the start — gap-free tax invoice numbers, VAT201 figures, five-year retention.
- A till cannot cook the books — prices and totals are set by the server, never by the machine on the counter.
Second product
Prospra IQ POS — a till that keeps trading when the line drops.
Point of sale and light ERP for South African retail. Built for shops where the connection is not a given and the receipt printer is older than the laptop.
How we work
Four steps, no surprises.
Every engagement runs the same way. You know what is being built, what it costs and when it lands before any code is written.
Discovery
We sit with the people doing the work and map the process as it actually runs — including the workarounds. Output is a written scope, not a sales deck.
Design
Data model, screens and integration points agreed up front. You approve the shape of the system before anything is built.
Build
Short cycles with something usable at the end of each one. You see progress continuously and can redirect early, when it is still cheap.
Run
Deployment, data migration, training and support. Monitoring and audit logging from day one, so problems surface before your customers find them.
Next step
Tell us what is slowing the business down.
A 30-minute call, no obligation. If custom software is the wrong answer for your problem, we will tell you that and point you at what is right.
