A web app built around how your business works
Off-the-shelf tools make you work their way. Our web application development gives UK businesses a system that fits the job, runs in any browser and grows with you.
You'll recognise at least one of these
These problems rarely arrive as one big failure. They cost a few hours here and a wrong number there, every week, until they feel normal.
- Your team keeps a spreadsheet next to the software because the software can't do what you need.
- You pay for five subscriptions and use a tenth of each one.
- Customers or suppliers email you for information they could look up themselves.
- Every new process means another workaround, and nobody remembers why the last one exists.
One system, shaped around your process
A web app is software that runs in a browser, on a desktop, tablet or phone, with nothing to install. We build it around the way your business already works, then make that way faster.
We start with the process, not the screens
We sit with the people who do the work and map each step first. The software follows the process, so training takes hours, not weeks.
You see working screens early
We release in stages. You use real screens within weeks and tell us what to change while it is still cheap to change.
Built to be looked after
We use mainstream, well-supported technology such as React, .NET, Node.js and Python, so the system is never stuck with one developer.
What our web apps typically do
Not sure your problem fits? Ask. We'll tell you on the first call, before any price is agreed, and we'll say so if we're not the right people.
- Customer and supplier portals where people log in and help themselves
- Job, order and booking management
- Quoting and pricing tools that follow your own rules
- Dashboards that pull figures from several systems into one view
- Staff tools that replace a shared spreadsheet
Four steps, and you approve each one
You always know what is being built, what it costs and what happens next.
A free call about the problem
Thirty minutes, no sales deck. We ask what's broken, what it costs you and what good would look like. If software isn't the answer, we'll tell you.
A fixed scope and a fixed price
You get a written plan in plain English: what we'll build, in what order, and what it costs. No open-ended day rates.
Working software early
We build in stages, so you see and use real screens within weeks, not a big reveal at the end.
We stay after launch
Support, hosting and the next phase of the roadmap. The team that built it is the team you call.
Web app development: common questions
What is web application development?
Web application development is building software that runs in a web browser. Your team logs in from any device and uses a system designed for your business, with no software to install on each computer.
How much does a bespoke web app cost?
Cube Purple agrees a fixed price in writing before work starts. The price depends on what the app has to do, so the first step is a free call to understand the problem and the process behind it.
How long does it take to build a web app?
Most first versions go live in a few months. Cube Purple builds in stages, so you use working screens within weeks rather than waiting for one big launch.
Will I own the software?
Yes. The terms are agreed in writing before work starts, and the software built for your business is yours to use for as long as you need it.
