Custom software & app developmentSoftware for the way you actually work

For when the spreadsheet has outgrown itself, the off-the-shelf tool almost fits, or an idea needs to become a product: web apps, mobile apps, dashboards and portals, written in plain, typed code that any good developer could pick up after us.

01The problem

Where it usually starts

Nobody wakes up wanting software. They want one of these to stop.

  1. 01

    The business runs on a spreadsheet nobody trusts

    Five versions, three people editing, and one formula that everything depends on.

  2. 02

    You pay for five tools that each do a fifth of the job

    And somebody copies data between them by hand every week.

  3. 03

    Clients keep asking for updates you have to type out

    A portal where they can see status, files and invoices would answer most of those messages for you.

  4. 04

    You have an idea for a product

    And it needs building properly enough to put in front of paying users, without a six-month agency project.

02What we do

What we build

All of it in TypeScript on well-known, deliberately boring tools, documented, and set up in your own accounts.

01

Web applications

Anything that runs in a browser and needs accounts, data and logic behind it — from a booking system to a full SaaS product.

02

Mobile apps

Android and iOS from one codebase, so you pay for one build, sharing a backend with your web app.

03

Admin panels and dashboards

The screens you run the business from: orders, stock, bookings, invoices, reports, and who is allowed to see what.

04

Portals

A private area for your clients, dealers or staff, with their own logins, documents, status updates and payments.

05

Integrations

Your software talking to what you already use — payment gateways, WhatsApp, Google Sheets, accounting tools, CRMs — through their APIs.

06

First versions

The smallest version of a product real users can pay for, built so it can grow rather than be thrown away.

03Who it is for

Is this for you

A good fit

  • Businesses whose process lives in spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups and somebody’s memory
  • Founders who need a first version built properly, before there is an in-house team
  • Teams paying for several tools that each almost fit

Probably not for

  • Anything an existing product already does well and cheaply — we will point you to it
  • Very large systems that need a big team from the first day

04The work

Built, live, and open to look at

Both stores run on admin panels we built — orders, stock, customers and exports. InterviewSim is our own prototype, a live voice application, and is labelled as one.

Silomin

An online shop for a skincare brand that sells straight to its customers instead of through a marketplace.

What we did

The whole store — storefront, product catalogue, checkout and order flow, and the admin panel behind it.

  • React
  • TypeScript
  • Supabase
  • Razorpay
  • Shiprocket

We wanted a store that felt like our brand, not a template with our logo on it. Bitbew built the whole thing — checkout, shipping, the admin we use every day — and explained every decision in plain language along the way.

J Charms

An online shop for handmade crochet. Everything is made to order and no two pieces are the same, so the catalogue had to cope with one-offs.

What we did

Storefront, product catalogue, checkout and order tracking, and the admin panel the shop is run from.

  • React
  • TypeScript
  • Supabase
  • Cash on delivery

Every piece I make is different, and most shop builders simply could not handle that. Bitbew built the store around the way I actually work, and showed me how to run it myself.

05How it goes

From first call to up and running

  1. 01

    Understand the work

    We look at the process as it runs today — who does what, where the data lives, what goes wrong — before suggesting a single screen.

  2. 02

    Plan the first version

    The smallest thing that removes the most pain, written down with the screens, the data and a price per stage.

  3. 03

    Build in slices

    Each piece goes live on a private link as it is finished, so the people who will use it can test it while changes are still cheap.

  4. 04

    Roll it out

    Existing data moved across, people shown how it works, and monitoring switched on so we see problems before your team does.

Every project starts the same way: a free call, then a written plan with a fixed price per stage. How we work and how pricing works.

06Questions

What people ask us first

01

Do you build mobile apps as well?

Yes — Android and iOS from one codebase, usually alongside a web app that shares the same backend. If a mobile-friendly web app would do the job for less, we will tell you.

02

Can you work on software someone else built?

Often, yes. We start with a short paid review of the code so we can tell you honestly whether it is worth building on, or cheaper to replace.

03

What does custom software cost?

It depends entirely on scope, which is why the first version is planned and priced in fixed stages before any code is written. No hourly billing, and no surprise invoice at the end.

04

What happens after launch?

The first three months of care are included: monitoring, security updates, backups and small changes. After that it carries on monthly or yearly if you want it to.
