Custom software and MVPs for US small businesses.
A US service business running jobs, scheduling and a customer portal across spreadsheets, a shared inbox and a handful of apps that don't talk to each other outgrows them fast. We build the software behind that instead: job tracking, scheduling and a customer-facing portal, as a fixed-scope project or a focused MVP sprint ahead of a launch or a funding conversation.
What this covers
- Dashboards, internal tools, portals and SaaS MVPs, with roles, an audit trail and the integrations you already use — Studio's own Custom software and SaaS line of work.
- The same roles-and-audit pattern as our own dashboard demo: an owner's view of what's happening today, a staff view scoped to their own jobs.
- The same pattern as our crew-app concept for a field team: today's jobs, checklists with photos, offline sync and a supervisor sign-off, adapted to your own job types.
- If the crew needs a phone app rather than a browser, iOS and Android ship from one React Native codebase, with the same backend and sign-in as the portal.
- Built on the same stack as this site and Comriq's own products — Next.js, Supabase and Vercel — with security and performance built in from the first commit.
- comriq.com itself is proof of the same engineering standard: a hand-built render layer, pre-rendered routes, hosted at the edge.
Work we've actually built.
Comriq's own work and demos only — no client names or logos, and nothing invented.
comriq.com itself
Comriq needed a public site for seven products, Studio and the legal pages the business runs on. It had to be built and live before any product had a sales team.

A business with a WhatsApp Business number gets enquiries all day. Someone still has to read each one, work out what is being asked and reply with a quotation.

A small business tracking jobs, cash and staff across spreadsheets and chat threads has no single place to see what is actually happening today.
Read the case studySix steps, in this order.
Every step ends with something you approve. You can stop after any stage and keep what was delivered.
Tell us the problem, the users and the deadline. We ask until the scope is clear.
A fixed scope and a fixed price in writing, with the milestones it is paid in and an advance before work begins.
Screens or a written plan you approve before building starts.
In stages you can see on a staging link, each one signed off, against the delivery timeline in your quotation.
Source, accounts and documentation are yours on final payment.
Optional support or a growth retainer after launch, month to month, never required.
What we build it with.
The same stack and the same standards this site itself is held to.
Next.js
The web framework behind every Comriq product — Console, People, Work, Books, Stay and Campus.
React Native and Expo
One codebase for iOS and Android, the same team that builds it maintains it.
Supabase
Postgres with row-level security, the same database discipline Comriq's own products run on.
Vercel
Edge hosting and zero-downtime releases.
Security, performance and SEO are not an add-on: server-side validation, rate limiting, Core Web Vitals and search/AI-crawler basics are built in from the first commit — the same standard this site itself is held to, hand-built render layer and all (no framework; see the comriq.com case study above).
Custom software and MVPs for US small businesses
Ask anything else; it answers from this site, or passes the question to the team.
Is this only for companies that already have investors?
No — the MVP sprint engagement is for a specific launch or funding deadline, but a fixed-scope project works just as well for a service business replacing spreadsheets and chat with real software.
Do you build the customer portal and the internal dashboard together?
Usually yes, scoped together in discovery so both sides share the same data and roles instead of being built twice.
Who owns the code once it's built?
You do, on final payment — source, repositories, accounts and documentation.
How is a project billed?
A fixed price in writing, paid in milestones, or a monthly retainer for ongoing work, agreed before anything is built.
Do you work across US time zones?
Yes — with overlap hours for calls and reviews agreed at kickoff.
Have a number and a price list to automate?
