Services
Made-to-measure tools, built your way & priced up front.
Small pieces of software for the jobs off-the-shelf packages don’t quite fit, like planning deliveries, quoting, stock or bookings. We build each one around the way you already work, for a fixed price agreed before we start.
Jo, Mill Lane Deliveries
We run three vans and plan the day’s drops on a whiteboard every morning. It works while Sue’s in, but when she’s off nobody else really knows how she does it, and the drivers end up ringing round. Could something do the planning for us?
Duet
It could. A planner that shares the drops between your vans, and re-plans when one’s off the road.
Three vans, one planner & no ringing round.
The planning Sue did in her head, as a tool anyone in the yard can run. When a van’s off the road, its drops are shared out again.
Example conversations
Sounds like you? Florists, joiners & clinics too.
If a job runs on rules that live in someone’s head, or in a spreadsheet only one person understands, it’s a good fit for a tool.
Hannah, Florist
For every wedding I work out how many stems to order from the market, arrangement by arrangement, on the back of an envelope. If I get it wrong, I’m short on the day. Could something do the sums?
Duet
Yes. Choose the arrangements and it adds up every stem to order, flower by flower.
Mark, Joiner
I price every job from scratch: timber, hours, fixings and a bit for waste. It takes my evenings, and I lose track of which quotes I’ve heard back on. Is there a quicker way?
Duet
There is. A quote tool that knows your rates, and one list of every quote still waiting for a yes.
Leah, Clinic manager
We have three treatment rooms and a booking system that doesn’t know our rules. It puts massages in the room without the couch and books over our lunch. Can we have one that knows how we work?
Duet
Yes. Tell it your rules once and it books around them.
Your rules, built in & kept to.
Every business runs on a few rules nobody wrote down. We build yours into the tool, so it can’t book a massage into the room without the couch.

Same jobs, off the board & into a tool.
We start from what you already keep, a whiteboard, a spreadsheet or a notebook, and turn it into a screen that answers the question you keep asking it.
A conversation, a fixed price & then the build.
We talk the job through, you get one price in writing, and we build the tool and hand it over in person.
Good questions & plain answers.
Anything your business does the same way every day or every week, by rules you could explain to a new starter: planning rounds, rotas, quotes, stock and bookings. If it lives in a spreadsheet, or in one person’s head, it’s probably a good fit.
We talk the job through first, on a call or in person. Then you get one fixed price in writing, before we build anything.
No. We build the tool around the way you already do things: your rules, your names for things and your paperwork. You don’t have to bend to fit a package.
Usually the computers and phones you already have. If your data has to stay in the building, we can set it up to run on your own network.
Tell us and we’ll change the tool, quoted the same way as the first build. Ongoing care is there if you want it, but it’s optional.
