# Custom software built around how your business runs

> Custom software development for growing companies: web platforms, client portals, internal tools, admin panels and APIs, built around your processes and connected to your systems.

Source: https://morfalabs.com/en/services/custom-software

We design and build web platforms, client portals, internal tools and APIs for the work that off-the-shelf software doesn't fit. AI is built in where it helps, and everything connects to the systems you already use.

## Sound familiar?

- Key processes run on spreadsheets, email and tools that were never built for them.
- Off-the-shelf software covers most of what you need, and the rest is workarounds.
- Clients and partners email you for updates they could check themselves in a portal.

## What we build

- **Web platforms:** Customer-facing products and marketplaces, built to grow from the first release.
- **Client and partner portals:** Secure portals where clients track orders, sign documents, pay and download reports.
- **Internal tools and admin panels:** Back-office tools that replace spreadsheets for approvals, operations and data management.
- **APIs and integrations:** Documented APIs that connect your software to your ERP, CRM, payment providers and AI services.
- **AI built in:** Search, assistants, document reading and automation added where they save time, not for show.

## Example use cases

### Example: Client portal for a logistics company

Customers track shipments, download documents and raise requests in one place, instead of emailing the operations team.

### Example: Approvals tool for a contractor

Purchase requests, approvals and supplier quotes move through one internal tool with a full history, replacing long email chains.

### Example: Booking platform for a training provider

Courses, schedules, payments and certificates run on one web platform, connected to the accounting system.

### Example: Partner API for a distributor

Resellers check stock, prices and order status through a documented API instead of calling the sales team.

## Works with

- Next.js
- React
- Node.js
- TypeScript
- PostgreSQL
- Stripe
- AWS
- Cloudflare

And other systems with an API or a reliable export.

## How it works

### 1. Discover

We map the process, the users and the systems involved, and agree what the first release must do.

### 2. Design

Screens, data model and architecture are agreed with you before we build, with a fixed quote.

### 3. Build

We build in short cycles on a test environment you can use, with automated tests from the start.

### 4. Launch

We release in stages, hand over the code and documentation, and can keep improving it on a monthly plan.

## Frequently asked questions

### What kind of software do you build?

Web platforms, client and partner portals, internal tools, admin panels and APIs, plus mobile apps for iOS and Android. We focus on business software that connects to the systems you already use, often with AI built in.

### How much does custom software cost?

It depends on the scope: how many user roles, screens and integrations there are, and how complex the business rules are. After a short discovery we give a fixed quote for the first release, so you know the cost before work starts. Hosting, maintenance and new features can run on a monthly plan.

### How long does it take?

A focused first release, such as a portal or an internal tool, usually takes a few weeks to a few months. Larger platforms are planned in stages, so something useful is live early and each stage builds on the last.

### Who owns the code?

The project agreement sets out ownership. Normally the source code, designs and documentation pass to you once the project is paid, and they live in your own repository and cloud accounts.

### Can you work with our existing systems and team?

Yes. We connect to your ERP, CRM, payment and sign-in providers through their APIs, and we can work alongside your in-house developers with code reviews and shared documentation.

### What happens after launch?

We monitor the system, fix issues and add features on a monthly plan, or hand everything over to your team with documentation and a walkthrough.

### How do we choose a software agency, and what are the red flags?

Look for an agency that asks about your business before quoting, starts with a small paid first phase, names the people doing the work and gives you the code from day one. Be wary of a firm price after one call, vague scope, no testing, or no access to the code until the final payment.

### Should we hire an agency or build an in-house team?

An agency is usually faster and cheaper for a first version or a large build, because you get design, development and testing without months of hiring. An in-house team makes sense once the software is at the center of your business and changes every week. Many companies start with an agency and hire later, which is why we document everything for a clean handover.
