Get hours back every week. I build the tools, you run your business.
I'm Richard, a software engineer in Winchester. I find the jobs that eat your time, like forms, reminders and quotes, and make them happen on their own. Plain English, fair prices, and I can pop round.

How it works
No jargon, no long contracts. You only pay once you've seen what you're getting.
-
We have a chat
I visit you or we talk on the phone. You tell me which jobs take too long. I ask lots of questions. This is free.
-
I build it
I make a tool that does that job for you. You try it before you pay for the full thing.
-
I look after it
I keep it running, fix anything that breaks, and make small changes when you need them.
What I could build for you
These are ideas, not past jobs. Every business is different, so the free chat is where we find what fits yours.
Dentists
- New patients fill in their forms online before they arrive. No more retyping paper forms.
- A fast, up-to-date website. Many older practice websites run on software that needs urgent security updates.
Estate agents and conveyancers
- Pull local sold prices and energy ratings into a valuation pack in minutes, from public Land Registry and EPC data.
- Chase missing documents automatically, so cases don't stall.
Trades
- Turn a few photos and notes from a job into a tidy quote, ready to send.
- Answer enquiries in the evening and book them into your diary while you're off the tools.
Something else?
- Reply to customer messages when you're closed.
- Swap paper forms and spreadsheets for simple online ones.
- Keep your website quick, safe and up to date.

Who you'll be dealing with
I've built software for over 20 years, most recently payment systems, where keeping people's data safe is the whole job. I live near Winchester, so I'm local and easy to reach.
You'll deal with me from the first chat to the day your tool is running, and after that too. No call centres, no handing you over to someone else.
Questions people ask
Do I need to be good with computers?
No. If you can use a phone and send an email, you can use what I build. I'll show you how it works and leave simple notes.
Is my customers' data safe?
Yes. I've spent years working on payment systems with strict security rules. I keep data to the minimum, store it in the UK or EU, and follow UK GDPR.
What if it doesn't work for me?
You try it before you pay for the full build. If it doesn't save you time, you don't go ahead.
Do I have to change the software I already use?
Usually not. Most of what I build works alongside what you have and saves you copying things from one place to another.
Which areas do you cover?
Winchester and nearby, including Alresford, Romsey, Eastleigh, Southampton and Basingstoke. Further away is fine over the phone.
