Software development in Medway and Kent
We are based in Medway and most of our clients are within an hour of it. Websites, apps, bespoke systems and automation, on a fixed quote agreed before anything starts, with the code yours at the end.
Below: the Kent projects we have actually delivered, what we cover, and an honest answer on where we work and where we don’t.
Work we have delivered in Kent
Three named projects for Kent clients, each with a write-up of what was needed and what we built. Not a logo wall.
Where we actually work
We are a service-area business, not a shop you walk into. In practice that means we meet clients at their premises or on a call, and the work itself happens wherever it happens.
Across Medway - Chatham, Gillingham, Rochester, Strood and Rainham - we will come to you without thinking about it. Across the rest of Kent and the South East, we will come to you for anything worth a meeting. Beyond that, we work with clients anywhere in the UK remotely, which is how most software gets built now and has never been the limiting factor on a project.
What we will not do is pretend to a local presence we do not have. If you want someone who can be at your office in twenty minutes and you are in Cornwall, we are the wrong choice and we will say so.
What Kent businesses ask us for
In roughly the order they ask. Every one is a fixed quote agreed before we start.
Website Development
£0 build fee on simple sites
Web design in Medway, and website development across Kent and the South East, for small businesses that would rather deal with two named people than an account manager.
App Development
Web apps from £1,500 · mobile apps from £3,000
A mobile app development company should be able to tell you three things before you spend anything: whether you need an app at all, what yours would cost, and who owns it afterwards.
Custom Software
From £5,000
Bespoke software development, which most people also call custom software development, has a reputation in the UK for six-figure quotes and year-long timelines.
Web App Development
From £1,500
A web app is software that runs in a browser at your own address: customers or staff log in, do real work, and nothing has to be installed.
AI Automation
Pilots from £1,500
Most AI automation agencies sell you a demo.
Hosting & Maintenance
From £45 a month
Website maintenance and hosting in one flat monthly figure: £45 a month, or £90 if your site runs a database.
Does it matter that we are local?
Honestly, less than people expect for the building, and more than people expect for everything around it. The code does not care where it was written. What being nearby changes is the first conversation, the awkward one in month three, and the day something breaks.
It also changes who you are dealing with. You get the two people who will actually do the work, not an account manager relaying to a team you never meet. For a small business spending real money on software, that is usually the thing that mattered in hindsight.
If you would rather see numbers before a conversation, the website cost guide and the app cost guide both carry an estimator you can run yourself in half a minute.
