The main board
Every job, order or appointment on one screen, with the status your team actually uses, instead of a spreadsheet and three apps.
Services Custom software
Custom software for the way your business actually runs
When off-the-shelf apps force you into their workflow, I build one around yours: the screens your team uses all day, with texting, payments and reports built in, in accounts you own.
What I build
Custom software: what's included
Customer-facing pages
A link the customer opens on their phone to see status, approve an estimate, sign, or pay, with no app to install.
Texting and payments built in
Two-way Twilio texting and Stripe payments inside the system, not bolted on through a third tool.
Staff screens
Time clocks, checklists, inspections with photos and tablet forms for the people who aren't at a desk.
Reports that answer real questions
What each job earned, where time went and what's waiting on whom, from data you entered once.
Phased, not all at once
Built in phases you can use as each one lands, each with a written scope and a fixed price.
Sound familiar?
Requests like these
- “We run the business on spreadsheets and sticky notes”
- “Our software does 80% of what we need and fights us on the rest”
- “We want customers to approve and pay from a text link”
- “We need one screen that shows where every job stands”
Examples of the kind of request this covers, not quotes from clients.
Built from scratch, live demo
Tessavio Auto: a complete system for auto repair shops
Repair orders, inspections with photos, estimates the customer approves and signs on their phone, technician time clocks, parts, gross-profit reports, two-way Twilio texting and Stripe payments. Built with Next.js, TypeScript and PostgreSQL. Press anything; the data is invented.
What I won't build
A clone of software you can already buy for less. If an existing product fits, I'll tell you, and I can connect it to your other tools instead.
FAQ
Straight answers
How much does custom software cost?
It depends on the screens and connections involved, so every project gets a written plan and a fixed price per phase before any work starts. The first phase is kept small so you can judge the work before committing to more.
Who owns it?
You do. It runs in accounts in your name, and the code and documentation are handed over.
What happens after launch?
I stay available for fixes and changes, billed at $55/hour or as a fixed-price phase. Everything is documented so another developer could take over.

Describe the job in a few lines
I reply in writing with how I’d build it and a fixed price. $55/hour for small fixes; fixed quotes for everything else.
