Applications and custom development.
When a website is no longer enough. Touch POS, business software, a platform with user accounts, a loyalty game: these projects fit no price list, and that is as it should be.
What we build.
Touch POS and payment
A till that runs on a tablet, keeps working when the network drops, and prints the receipt straight to the thermal printer. In service in a restaurant and a hair salon.
Business applications
User accounts, dashboards, stock or scheduling. Whatever your current software cannot do, or does badly, built around the way you work.
Games and loyalty
A predictions app with a live leaderboard during the World Cup, a gamified quiz for a leisure park. Designed within Swiss gambling law.
Platforms and mobile apps
News feed, groups, pages, marketplace, events, messaging and profiles, built from scratch. Also published as an Android and iPhone app when the use case calls for it.
Kassio, the touch till.
Built for a restaurant, then adapted for a hair salon. It runs full screen on a tablet, syncs across several devices instantly, and keeps working when the network drops.

How these projects run.
No free mock-up here: development is quoted once the need is understood. The method changes, the standard does not.
- A call to frame the need and strip out everything unnecessary
- A fixed quote, split into stages, with a first module delivered early
- The code and the data are yours, as with a website

Custom development is not sold off a price list. Twenty minutes are enough to frame the need, strip out the excess and give you an honest order of magnitude.
Common questions.
What does custom development cost?
It depends entirely on the need, and nobody can quote it seriously without talking first. The order of magnitude sits above the website price list, and the project is always split into separately invoiced stages.
Can I have a free mock-up, as for a site?
No. A site mock-up takes three days; an application first requires understanding a trade. The first call is free, the development is not.
What if the project changes along the way?
It will change, certainly. That is why development is split into modules delivered one after another: you see the first part running before committing to the next.
Let's talk about your project.
Twenty minutes on the phone are enough to know whether it is feasible, at what price, and in how many stages. No obligation.
