Custom Software Development
acty.dev builds scoped custom business software around an existing operational process, delivered as a working app or module with repo and handoff notes, a deployment path, documentation, and a next-phase backlog.
We build scoped custom business software around an existing operational process, delivered as a working app or module with repo and handoff notes, a deployment path, documentation, and a next-phase backlog. We stay within scoped delivery and do not imply broad product-company staffing or enterprise scale.
The problem we solve
A team runs a real operational process, but existing SaaS products or spreadsheets do not fit it, and there is no in-house engineering capacity to build the scoped application or module the workflow actually needs.
How we work
- Task review.We review the operational process, the systems and data involved, and the outcome you need, then agree on a scoped build before development starts.
- Build with review.We build the application or module against the agreed scope, with code review and tests, and a reviewable demo as it takes shape.
- Deploy or hand off.We deploy to production with a deployment path, or hand the work off with repo and environment notes.
- Document and support.We hand over documentation and a next-phase backlog, and offer ongoing maintenance or support when further work is needed.
What you bring / what you get
Inputs
- The operational process the software should support
- Access to the systems, documents, or data involved
- The outcome or bottleneck you need the build to address
Outputs
- A working custom application or module
- A Git repository, repo and handoff notes, and a deployment path
- Documentation and a next-phase backlog
Definition of done.A working custom application or module built around the agreed operational process, delivered with repo and handoff notes, a deployment path, documentation, and a next-phase backlog, where SaaS or spreadsheets did not fit.
Fit and anti-fit
Good fit
- Teams whose workflow does not fit off-the-shelf SaaS or spreadsheets
- Buyers who need implementation and delivery, not just advice
Not a fit
- Idea-only requests with no real process, data, or system
- Requests implying broad product-company staffing or enterprise scale
Questions
- What does custom software development include here?
- Building a scoped custom application or module around an existing operational process, delivered with repo and handoff notes, a deployment path, documentation, and a next-phase backlog, with code review and a reviewable demo during the build.
- What proof supports this service?
- Our software proof set and the adjacent examples on this site show working tools built around real spreadsheet and operational workflows; we use them as the basis for scoped custom builds.
- What is out of scope?
- We do not imply broad product-company staffing, enterprise scale, or platform scope we cannot support, and we do not make unproven performance or capacity claims.
Pricing.Engagements start with a task review; scope and price are defined after that review. Larger builds and ongoing work are scoped from there. (Scoped after a task review.)
