Everything's in spreadsheets
Jobs, customers or stock spread across files that are hard to keep up to date.

That job tracker you've always wanted? A better way to handle forms, stock or approvals? I build straightforward web apps that make everyday work easier.
Built for your business, not the other way around. No tech jargon. No unnecessary extras.

SOUND FAMILIAR?
Little problems that eat up big chunks of your day.
You don't need a massive IT project. Sometimes you just need a simple tool that does one job properly.
Too much paperwork
Forms, checklists and inspections that still need printing, chasing or retyping.
Put it all in one easy app
Chasing people for answers
Approvals and requests disappearing into emails and "just checking in" messages.
See what's waiting and who's next
Software that doesn't fit
Paying for a complicated system when you only use a handful of its features.

Think job trackers, inspection forms, stock lists, simple booking systems, approval tools and more. Not sure if your idea fits? Just ask me.
WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE
Three examples, worked through.
Made-up businesses, everyday problems. Where the time goes today, and what changes with a small app built for the job.
Time sheets on paper, retyped every Friday
- Today
- The team writes hours and materials on paper slips. On Friday the office types them into a spreadsheet, chases missing slips and fixes mistakes. That's about 6 hours a week, and some hours never make it onto an invoice.
- With the app
- Everyone logs hours and materials per job on their phone in under a minute. The office sees every job at a glance and exports it for invoicing.
~6 hsaved every week (≈ €9,500 a year)
€600one-off, paid back in about 3 weeks
Repair requests lost between phone, email and sticky notes
- Today
- Tenants report problems by phone, email or in passing. Nobody sees the full list, tenants keep calling to ask "any news?", and now and then a job is simply forgotten. About 3 hours a week go on chasing and answering.
- With the app
- Every request goes into one simple form. A board shows what's open, who's on it and since when, so you can answer a tenant in seconds.
~3 hsaved every week (≈ €4,700 a year)
€300one-off, paid back in about 3 weeks
Quality checks done on paper, then typed up again
- Today
- Supervisors tick a paper checklist on site, send photos over WhatsApp and type a report for the client in the evening. 20 checks a week at 15 minutes of typing each: 5 hours.
- With the app
- Checklist and photos are done on the phone at the site. When the check is finished, the client's report is ready to send.
~5 hsaved every week (≈ €7,900 a year)
€600one-off, paid back in under 4 weeks
Constructed examples with assumed figures (staff time at €35 an hour, 45 working weeks a year). Your numbers will differ. Tell me about your process and I'll work through it with you.
DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT
Read the full case study Here's what I've actually built.
REAL PROJECT · QUALITY & APPROVALS
They were paying around €10,000 a year for software that didn't quite fit.
So I built them their own system for quality checks, non-conformance reports and approvals. One place for the team to get the job done, instead of a mixture of software, paper and emails.

NO MYSTERY QUOTES
Simple software. Simple pricing.
For a straightforward business app, I charge €300 for up to 10 screens or forms. Need more? Add another block of 10 for €300.
Tell me what you're trying to fix. I'll help work out the screens and confirm the scope and price before we begin.
- Simple forms, lists, search and status tracking
- One clear business workflow per project
- A working web app, tested and handed over
- Your own code and accounts
TRY THE PRICE CALCULATOR€300 / up to 10
screens / forms
110203040
A screen is a page or form someone uses, such as a job list, an inspection form or a status page.
Estimated build price€300
1 block of up to 10 screens
This is an estimate for a straightforward app, not a guaranteed quote. Complex features, integrations or data migration need a separate quote. Hosting and ongoing support aren't included in the build price. Prices are in euros (EUR).
NO COMPLICATED PROCESS
Here's how it works.
01
Tell me what's annoying you
Explain the job that's taking too long, the spreadsheet that's getting out of hand, or the tool you wish existed. Plain English is fine.
02
We agree on a simple plan
I'll work out what the app needs to do, which screens make sense, and give you a clear price before building anything.
03
I build it and hand it over
I'll build and test the software with you, make sure the important bits work, and show you how to use it.
GOOD QUESTIONS
Worth knowing up front.
What counts as a screen or form?
A screen is one distinct page or form in your app—for example, a list of jobs, a screen to add a job, or a page showing a job's details. I'll help you count them before we agree on the price.
Can you build something bigger than 10 screens?
Yes. Each additional block of up to 10 straightforward screens is another €300. For more complex systems, we'll agree on a separate quote instead of pretending every feature takes the same amount of work.
What if I don't know exactly what I need?
That's normal. Tell me what your team does today and what's frustrating. I'll help you work out the simplest useful version, without expecting you to write a technical brief.
What about hosting and changes later?
The build price covers the agreed app, not ongoing hosting or unlimited changes. We'll talk through any ongoing costs and support before the project starts. The code and accounts are yours.
A REAL PERSON, NOT A BIG AGENCY
Hi, I'm Johan.
I build useful software for real businesses. I'll listen to how your team works, keep things straightforward, and make sure what we build solves the problem you started with.
