All questions

Software

What do you build?

Custom software for organisations: business systems, web applications, APIs and integrations, and the modernisation of existing systems. We also deploy, host and look after software.

Do you work across Ghana?

Yes. We work with clients across Ghana, mostly remotely over calls and WhatsApp, and we meet in person when it helps.

Can one team handle design and development?

Yes. We design and build in-house, and on larger projects we bring in trusted specialists. You always know who's working on your project.

Can you take over a website someone else built?

Yes. We check what's there, fix what's broken, bring it up to date and look after it from then on.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes. We set up the pages you'll want to change so you can edit them yourself, and we handle anything bigger.

What if I don't have the logins?

We help you recover access to your domain and hosting first. It's a common starting point.

Can you bring in our existing spreadsheets?

Yes. We import your current records so you start with your history, not an empty system.

Does it work on phones?

Yes. Everything works in the browser on a phone, tablet or laptop.

Cloud

Who owns the domain, the site and the data?

You do. The domain is registered in your name, and the site and its data are yours.

What if we want to leave?

We hand everything over: the domain, the code, the data and the access details. No lock-in.

Do you back up our site?

Yes. Everything we host is backed up every night to a separate location, and we can restore it when needed.

Do you host what you build?

Yes. Most clients have us host and look after it, so there's one team to call for everything.

Will the site go offline during a move?

We plan migrations so the switch happens in one go, and we tell you in advance if there'll be any downtime.

Can you host a site you didn't build?

Often, yes. Tell us what it runs on and we'll tell you honestly whether we can look after it well.

What happens if the site goes down?

Our monitoring alerts us and we start on it straight away. You can always message us on WhatsApp too.

Can you move a domain I already have?

Yes. We transfer it into your business's name and take over the renewals.

Which domain should I choose?

Something short that people can spell. We'll suggest options and check what's available.

Design partners

Who owns the code?

We keep the product's code; you get a permanent licence to use it, your data stays yours, and nothing confidential is ever shared.

Will competitors use it?

They may, once it's a product: that's how the model works. They never see your data or anything confidential.

What does a partner pay?

A reduced partner rate for the build, agreed in writing before we start, then partner pricing for as long as you use it.

What if it never becomes a product?

You keep using the software under your permanent licence, and your data stays yours.

Working with us

How do you price projects?

One build fee for the project, then a simple monthly fee for hosting and care. Both are in your written quote before any work starts.

What does a project look like from start to finish?

A short call about what you need, a written quote, then we build it with you: you see progress and test it before launch. After launch we host it and look after it.

Can smaller organisations pay in stages?

Yes. Usually a deposit to start and the balance at launch. Tell us what works for you.

How long does it take?

It depends on the size: a simple website is quicker than a full system. We agree a timeline in your quote and tell you early if anything changes.

How will we communicate?

WhatsApp and calls, with a short update at each milestone. You talk to the people building your project.

Is there a minimum project size?

No fixed minimum. If we're not the right fit for what you need, we'll tell you honestly.

Is the quote free?

Yes. Free, and no obligation.

What happens after launch?

We host it, back it up every night, keep it updated and fix things when they break. Changes and new features are quoted separately.

What if the way we work changes?

Systems we host include small fixes each month. Bigger changes are quoted separately before we start.

Still have questions?

Can't find yours?

Free, no-obligation conversation. Plain language, no jargon.

Questions first? We usually reply within one working day.
