Custom software development, built around how your business works.

Off-the-shelf tools are fine until your business stops fitting them. Orders live in one app, stock in a spreadsheet, payments in a third place, and someone spends every evening copying numbers between them. Custom software replaces that with one system that follows the way your team already works.

How we approach it

Lacspace designs, builds and runs software for clients and for itself. The same people who build our own products, from business suites to trading apps, take on client projects. You get a written scope and price before anything is agreed, working software in small releases you can try, and a team that stays with the system after launch.

  • Web platforms and portals

    Customer portals, partner dashboards and staff tools that run in any browser, with roles and permissions so each person sees only what they should.

  • Internal tools that replace spreadsheets

    Booking, dispatch, approvals, inventory and reporting moved out of shared sheets into screens built for the job, with an audit trail of who changed what.

  • APIs and integrations

    Clean, documented APIs for your own apps and partners, and connections to the payment gateways, SMS, email and accounting tools you already use.

  • SaaS products

    Multi-tenant products with sign-up, plans, billing and an admin console, for founders and companies turning a process into something they can sell.

  • Modernising older systems

    We take an ageing system, keep the data and the rules that matter, and move it onto a modern stack piece by piece so the business never stops.

  • Support after launch

    Monitoring, backups, security updates and new features on a plan that fits the system, from the same team that built it.

How the project runs

  1. 01

    First call

    We listen to how the business runs today, where time and money leak, and what a good result looks like for you.

  2. 02

    Scope and quote

    Features, screens, timeline, team and price, written down so both sides know exactly what is being built.

  3. 03

    Design

    We map each workflow and design the screens. You click through them and sign off before we build.

  4. 04

    Build in short cycles

    Working software arrives in small releases you can test. Progress, files and invoices sit in one workspace.

  5. 05

    Launch and run

    We move your data across, train the people who will use it and go live with a checklist. After launch, hosting, monitoring, fixes and new features continue under a support plan if you want one.

The technology, in plain words

We build on widely used, well-supported technology: TypeScript end to end, React and Next.js for web screens, Node.js services and APIs, and managed databases with daily backups. That means any competent developer can read the code later, and you are not locked into us.

Security is part of the build rather than an add-on: role-based access, encrypted secrets, rate limiting, audit logs and sensible defaults for passwords and sessions. Much of this comes from open-source packages we publish and use in our own products.

Who it is for

  • Businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets and a patchwork of apps
  • Companies with a process no packaged tool handles well
  • Founders turning an idea or an internal tool into a SaaS product
  • Teams replacing an old system that is hard to change or support
  • Organisations that want one technology partner for build and upkeep

Questions buyers ask

How much does custom software cost?

It depends on the number of screens, roles, integrations and how much data has to move across. After a first call we send a written scope with a fixed price or a phased estimate, so you know the cost before anything is agreed.

How long does a custom software project take?

A focused internal tool can be ready in a few weeks; a platform with several apps and integrations takes longer. The written scope includes a milestone plan, and you see working software at each milestone rather than waiting for one big reveal.

Do I own the source code?

Yes. The code, designs and data for a client project belong to the client. We hand over the repository and deployment notes, and you are free to host it yourself or have another team maintain it.

Can you work with our existing systems?

Yes. Most projects connect to something that already exists, such as an accounting tool, a payment gateway, an SMS provider or an older database. We document each integration so it can be maintained later.

Do you support the software after launch?

Yes. Hosting, monitoring, backups, fixes and new features can continue under a support plan. Because the same team built it, there is no hand-over gap when something needs to change.

Should I build custom software or buy an existing tool?

Buy when a ready-made tool fits most of your process and the process is standard. Build when the way you work is what sets you apart, or when you are paying for several tools that still leave gaps. We will say so plainly if a ready-made tool is the better choice.
