Custom Software Development

Still duct-taping your operations together with spreadsheets and Slack messages? We build the real thing — web platforms, internal tools, and AI agents — engineered around how your business actually runs, at a fraction of what an in-house team costs

One team, start to finish: scoping, design, build, and launch. Custom platforms, back-office tools, and AI agents shaped to your exact process. Shipped in 4-8 weeks.

💰

COST SAVINGS

Skip the €150K+/year in-house dev team — get a fixed-scope build for roughly a fifth of that

TIME TO LAUNCH

4-8 weeks, spec to production

📈

PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH

Teams typically triple their output once the software matches the workflow

✅ One team, start to finish — no handoffs between agencies
✅ Web platforms, internal tools, and AI agents built by the same people
✅ Fixed-scope pricing, delivered by senior engineers
✅ Engineered to save €60K-150K/year versus hiring in-house

Why "just hire a developer" rarely solves this — and often makes it worse

HIRING IS EXPENSIVE BEFORE ANYONE WRITES A LINE OF CODE

YOU EXPERIENCE:
  • A mid-level full-stack dev runs €95K in salary plus roughly €35K in overhead — call it €130K/year
  • A senior engineer or architect: €150K-190K/year
  • Recruiters and job boards add €15K+ per hire before day one
  • Then 2-3 months of ramp-up before they're actually productive
💰RESULT:

With Dreisik, a fixed-scope build starts at €18K. That's €60K-150K/year saved versus a full-time hire — no benefits, no onboarding runway, no management layer.

YOUR ROADMAP MOVES SLOWER THAN YOUR MARKET

YOU EXPERIENCE:
  • An internal team ships maybe one feature every 4-6 weeks
  • Your project keeps getting bumped to "next quarter" by louder priorities
  • Each new hire resets the clock with 2-3 months of onboarding
  • Meanwhile your competitors are shipping every week
RESULT:

Dreisik puts a dedicated build team on your project with parallel workstreams — working software in 4-8 weeks. Faster than most companies can even finish hiring.

QUALITY SLIPS WHEN A TEAM IS STRETCHED THIN

YOU EXPERIENCE:
  • Rushed releases carry noticeably more bugs
  • Skipped code review lets tech debt snowball
  • Architecture drifts and becomes inconsistent feature to feature
  • One person leaves and suddenly nobody understands half the codebase
📉RESULT:

Dreisik ships senior-reviewed code with documented architecture, real test coverage, and staged rollouts — built so it can be handed to any team, including your own, without a translator.

GROWTH MEANS HEADCOUNT, AND HEADCOUNT MEANS COST

YOU EXPERIENCE:
  • Shipping 10 features a year takes roughly 3 engineers (€390K/year)
  • Shipping 50 a year takes 12+ engineers (€1.5M+/year)
  • Every bit of growth adds payroll, one-to-one
  • Hiring simply can't keep pace with what the roadmap demands
📊RESULT:

With Dreisik, build capacity flexes up or down by sprint. Add senior engineering firepower on demand, with no payroll obligation attached. Typical savings at scale: 40-60%.

NO SINGLE HIRE COVERS THE WHOLE STACK

YOU EXPERIENCE:
  • One developer means one lane — frontend, or backend, or AI, rarely all three
  • A real product needs frontend, backend, DevOps, design, AI/ML, and QA
  • Covering every specialty in-house means 6-8 people (€700K+/year)
  • And then someone has to coordinate all of them
🎯RESULT:

The Dreisik team already covers the full stack — web apps, internal tools, integrations, automation, AI agents, even the marketing site around it — for a fraction of what assembling that team yourself would cost.

MANAGING A TEAM IS A JOB IN ITSELF

YOU EXPERIENCE:
  • You'll need a tech lead or PM on top of engineers (+€120K/year)
  • Sprint planning, standups, and check-ins eat real engineering hours
  • Coding standards drift depending on who you hired
  • Every departure wipes out institutional knowledge
👥RESULT:

With Dreisik you get one point of contact, senior-led delivery, documented standards, and zero turnover risk on your end.

WHAT STANDING STILL COSTS YOU

DIRECT LOSSES

  • 💰 €8,000-15,000 a month poured into manual workarounds and stopgap tools
  • ⏰ 400+ hours a month burned on broken processes and spreadsheet juggling
  • 😤 Good people getting worn down — and eventually leaving — because the tooling fights them

MISSED OPPORTUNITIES

  • 📉 Deals and customers slipping away to competitors who simply move faster
  • 🔻 Market share eroding to rivals running on real software
  • ⚡ Your strongest performers checking out mentally before they check out for good
ROUGHLY €96,000-180,000 A YEAR wasted on workarounds, plus 4,800+ hours lost, while competitors extend their lead

Custom software development: built around your business, not a template

We build software for the way your company actually operates — not a generic SaaS template bent into an uncomfortable shape. Every engagement is a system designed around your process, with automation and AI agents layered in wherever they save the most time.

Instead of:

  • No-code templates that constantly fight your workflow
  • Freelancers who vanish halfway through the build
  • Standing up an expensive in-house team for one project
  • Software that's obsolete and needs rebuilding within a year

You get:

  • ✅ Roughly 3x the team output, with zero new hires
  • ✅ 60-90% less manual busywork across the team
  • ✅ A system that scales alongside you instead of against you
  • ✅ One team handling web, automation, and AI together

            How a custom build typically plays out

            ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE: PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

            A typical small-to-mid regional property manager

            PROBLEM:

            Multiple properties being run out of email threads and spreadsheets

            BEFORE:
            • No central system — everything scattered across email and Excel
            • A large chunk of staff time lost to manual data entry
            • Tenants waiting far too long for a response
            • Maintenance requests slipping through the cracks
            AFTER:
            • A custom portal replaces the spreadsheet patchwork
            • Admin time falls sharply once workflows are centralized
            • Tenant responses become nearly instant
            • Every maintenance request is tracked, none get lost
            WHAT WE IMPLEMENTED:
            • Custom tenant portal
            • Maintenance request automation
            • Internal operations dashboard
            • Payment and lease integration
            Investment:Scoped to portfolio size and feature set
            Savings:Scales with admin hours reclaimed and tenant retention
            ROI:Designed to pay for itself inside the first year

            "This is exactly the outcome we design for: one system the whole team actually uses, instead of a pile of spreadsheets and email chaos."

            Illustrative example — not an actual client

            ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE: E-COMMERCE

            A typical growth-stage e-commerce brand

            PROBLEM:

            A support team drowning in tickets while checkout quietly bled sales

            BEFORE:
            • Support stretched thin against rising ticket volume
            • Checkout abandonment running high
            • Customer inquiries taking hours to answer
            • A storefront built on an aging, hard-to-change platform
            AFTER:
            • An AI support agent now clears tier-1 tickets automatically
            • A rebuilt, optimized checkout cuts abandonment noticeably
            • Response times drop from hours to minutes
            • The human team focuses on the complex cases, not the repetitive ones
            WHAT WE IMPLEMENTED:
            • Custom storefront rebuild
            • AI support agent
            • Checkout optimization
            • Order and inventory automation
            Investment:Scoped to storefront complexity and integrations
            Savings:Scales with ticket volume, checkout conversion, and support costs
            ROI:Designed to pay for itself inside the first year

            "This is what we're aiming for every time: a storefront that converts better, and a support agent that takes the repetitive load off the team."

            Illustrative example — not an actual client

            ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE: CONSULTING FIRM

            A typical mid-size management consulting firm

            PROBLEM:

            No internal tooling at all — consultants handling their own admin work

            BEFORE:
            • No dedicated internal tools to speak of
            • Consultants losing significant hours each week to admin tasks
            • A billable-hour ratio well below what capacity allowed
            • Client reporting stitched together manually in Excel
            AFTER:
            • Admin time drops once scheduling and reporting run on autopilot
            • The billable-hour ratio climbs as admin load shrinks
            • A custom dashboard now handles reporting and scheduling
            • Consultants spend their time consulting, not fighting overhead
            WHAT WE IMPLEMENTED:
            • Internal operations dashboard
            • Reporting automation
            • Scheduling and CRM integration
            • Data pipeline for client reporting
            Investment:Scoped to team size and integration complexity
            Savings:Scales with billable hours reclaimed
            ROI:Designed to pay for itself inside the first year

            "This is the shift we build toward every time: consultants spending their hours consulting, not wrestling with admin overhead."
