Software built around how you work.

When a spreadsheet, a whiteboard or a stack of paper can’t keep up, we build the tool that replaces it: customer portals, booking systems, dashboards and internal tools.

No open-ended invoices.

Custom software has a reputation for running over. We split the work into stages, price each one up front, and show you working software at the end of every stage.

Stage 1

Paid discovery

We map the workflow, the people who’ll use the tool and the data it needs. You get a written plan whether or not you build with us.

Stage 2

A written plan with prices

Each stage has a fixed price and a date. You approve them one at a time.

Stage 3

Build in stages

At the end of each stage you try real, working software and tell us what to adjust.

Stage 4

Handover and care

You get all the code with ownership assigned to you in writing, and we can host and maintain it if you want.

Questions

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.

How much does a custom web app cost?

It depends on what the tool has to do, which is what the paid discovery works out. After discovery you get a fixed price for every stage, in writing, before any build work starts.

Have you built and run software yourselves?

Yes. GP Web Labs builds and operates MaintIQ, maintenance software used by facility teams, and got its start building tools for municipalities.

Who owns the software?

You do. All the code is handed over, and ownership is assigned to you in writing.

What if we only need something small?

Small is fine. Some of the most useful tools do one job, like a quote calculator or a job-status page.
