Web app development: customer portals, dashboards and tools for your team
Software that opens in a browser on any computer, tablet or phone, with nothing to install. We build portals for your customers and tools for your staff, around the way the business already works.
For businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets, shared inboxes and paper, or need to give customers a place of their own.
What we build
Your customers
-
Customer portals
A private area where your customers sign in to place orders, send enquiries, see their history or manage their account.
Your team
-
Staff dashboards
One screen where your team sees what has come in, what needs doing and what is done.
-
Internal tools
Small, focused tools for the jobs your team does every day, in place of the spreadsheet everyone is scared to touch.
-
Reports on your own numbers
The figures you check every week, gathered in one place instead of copied from three systems.
Underneath both
-
Connections to what you already use
Where you already run a platform, we connect to it rather than make you start again.
-
Access for the right people
Sign-in for customers and staff, with each person seeing only what they should.
-
Built to the standards we publish
Secure, accessible and fast on a phone, like everything else we build.
How a web app project runs
- 01
Discover
We sit down with how the work is done today: who does what, where the information lives and where it gets stuck. That becomes a written scope with what will be built, the cost, how it is paid and the timeline.
- 02
Design and build
You follow the working app on a private preview link and try it as it grows, so problems show up early.
- 03
Finish and test
Every screen and every form is checked on real devices.
- 04
Launch
The app goes live on your own hosting account, with every login set up in your business’s name.
- 05
After launch
A care plan keeps it updated and improving as the business changes.
The work
Dairy King
Dairy King’s staff dashboard runs in a web browser and is built to receive click and collect orders from the Dairy King app once it is live.

Questions about web apps and portals
What is the difference between a web app and a website?
A website mostly tells people about the business. A web app lets them do something: sign in, place an order, update a record or run part of the day. Many projects are both, a public website with a signed-in area behind it.
Why a web app rather than an app from the store?
A web app runs in the browser, so there is nothing to download and it works on computers as well as phones. For staff tools and customer portals that is often the simpler choice. If your customers would rather have an app on their home screen, we build that too.
Can you replace the spreadsheets we run the business on?
Yes. We start from how the spreadsheet is really used, then build a tool that does the same job with fewer mistakes and less copying.
Can it work with the software we already pay for?
Often, yes. Where a platform you use can be connected, we connect it, so information moves between them on its own. Your written scope says exactly what will be connected.
How is a web app priced?
The cost depends on what it has to do, so it follows our first conversation and is set out in your written scope. You pay an admin fee to start, which counts towards the total, and the balance when the work is finished.
