Software cost reduction for mid-sized companies

Stop rentingsoftware youcould own.

We find the software you're overpaying for, then replace it with tools we build and run for a fraction of the cost.

01 / The problem

The cost line nobody
decided to grow.

Software vendors raise prices every year, charge for features nobody uses, and make leaving painful. Most companies never ask whether they could own the tool instead.

Until recently, building it yourself was too slow and too expensive. AI changed that. A small expert team can now rebuild many tools in weeks.

01Keep

Keep what earns its price.

Not every tool should go. We don't recommend replacing core accounting or payroll.

02Renegotiate

Stop paying for unused seats.

Spot unused seats and duplicate tools, and catch auto-renewals before they lock in another year.

03Automate

Take the manual work out.

Software that reads documents, sorts requests, reconciles data or drafts reports, so your team stops doing that by hand.

04Replace

Own what you rely on.

Tools that cost a lot for what your team actually uses get replaced with software built for how your team works.

02 / The assessment

From software bill
to software
you own.

In 3–4 weeks we review your contracts and workflows and show you what to replace, automate or keep, with the savings for each.

Renting vs. owning.
Run your own
numbers.

Change the assumptions to see what you'd keep each year, and how long a replacement takes to pay for itself.

$300,000 − $60,000 = $240,000 per year, before the build cost.

04 / How it works

Built from
first principles.

We don't copy the vendor's product feature by feature. We start from the job your team needs done and build only what it requires, so you stop paying for everything else.

We replace the tools worth replacing with software built for how your team works, with AI where it saves time.

Run.

We host, secure and improve it for far less than the vendor charged, or hand it to your team.

Your data and source code, always

You're never locked in. You own your data and everything built specifically for you. If we disappeared tomorrow, your software would keep running.

We find the savings,

Simple, fixed prices. No hourly billing and no surprises.

If our assessment doesn't find at least 4x its fee in annual savings, you don't pay for it.

Identified opportunities are estimates, not realized savings. Builds are scoped and priced separately.

06 / Before we talk

Good questions.
Straight answers.

01What kinds of tools can you replace?

Tools that cost a lot for what your team actually uses: workflow and approval tools, reporting and analytics, internal portals, contract and document tools, and tools that connect other systems. We don't recommend replacing core accounting or payroll.

02Couldn't our IT team do this?

Possibly. The assessment tells you exactly what to build, and you're free to hand it to them.

03We're locked into contracts. Is this still worth it?

Most companies are. The assessment lines up each replacement with its renewal date, so you don't pay twice.

04What does the assessment cost?

$25,000, fixed, and it's free if we don't find at least 4x its fee in annual savings.

05How long does a build take?

Most take weeks, not months. Each has a fixed timeline and price agreed upfront.

06What does "AI built in" mean?

Software that reads documents, sorts requests, reconciles data or drafts reports, so your team stops doing that by hand.

07Is custom software secure?

Security is part of every design review. Software runs in your cloud account or ours, under your access controls.

08You're a small team. What if you go away?

You get the source code, your data and a permanent license. Your software keeps running without us.
