Web design and software development in Huddersfield

Custom sites and the unglamorous internal tools behind them: job sheets, quotes, stock, scheduling. Fixed price, delivered in weeks.

What it costs

No "contact us for a quote". These are the bands we work in, and the proposal names one number inside them.

Care plan after launch£75 to £250 a monthongoing

Bands, not a quote. The proposal names one number and one date, and the contract carries both.

Working with Huddersfield businesses

Huddersfield and the Colne Valley have a lot of makers and manufacturers, and manufacturing has software problems that generic products handle badly: batch tracking, job costing, a quote that depends on six variables. Off the shelf either doesn't fit or costs per seat forever.

Custom used to be unaffordable for a business of twenty people. That's the specific thing AI changed, and it's why a bespoke internal tool now starts at £3,000 instead of £30,000.

How we build, in full

The machine does

First drafts of screens, markup and logic. The repetitive 80%: forms, lists, plumbing, the fifth variation of the same page.

The human does

Scope, architecture, security, data protection, and the decision about what not to build. Every line reviewed and signed off by name.

Every project gets a build log: what was asked for, what it cost, how long it took, what the machine did and what the human did. Published, not summarised.

The honest bit

A bespoke tool is yours to own, which also means someone has to look after it. We offer a care plan, but you should know that commitment exists before you choose custom over a subscription product.

Questions people actually ask

Is AI writing my software actually safe?

The risk with AI generated code is real and well documented: more bugs, more security holes, when nobody reviews it. That's why review is the product here. A senior engineer reads everything, security and UK GDPR are deliverables rather than extras, and their name goes on it.

Are you actually in Huddersfield?

We're based in Leeds. We'll come to Huddersfield to scope the work and for anything that needs a room, and build remotely, which is part of why the price is what it is.

Why are you cheaper than the quote I already have?

Because the typing got faster and we passed that on. The thinking, the review and the testing didn't get faster, which is why we're cheaper than an agency but not as cheap as a DIY tool. Anyone charging pre-AI day rates for AI-assisted work is pocketing the difference.

Do I own it?

Yes. Code, repository, hosting and accounts, all in your name, no lock in. You can take it to any other developer the day after launch.
