Web applications that follow the way your team works

Quoting tools, scheduling boards, dashboards and intake systems that run in the browser, with nothing to install.

Past the point a website can reach

Somewhere in your business a spreadsheet is doing a job it was never meant to do. It prices the quotes or holds the schedule, and one person knows how it works.

A web application is custom software that covers the whole process, built around how your team already does the work.

Kedzie Machine Works

The quote is priced from the part drawing and the shop’s own rules, and a person approves it before it goes out. Kedzie is a company we invented, so we could build its website and back office in full.

What we build most

Each one starts from the way your team does the work today.

  • Quoting and estimating tools

    Your pricing logic and margins encoded once, so every estimate comes out right no matter who builds it.

  • Scheduling and dispatch boards

    Jobs and crews on one screen, so dispatching is a drag and a click instead of a whiteboard and a prayer.

  • Dashboards and reporting

    Numbers pulled live from the systems that hold them, so nobody assembles exports every Friday afternoon.

  • Intake and workflow systems

    Requests come in the front and move through your stages, and nothing falls between desks.

It runs in any browser

Browser-based software runs on what your team already uses, from office desktops to the phone in the truck. An improvement reaches everyone at once, and no app store stands between you and your own tool. When a project needs what a native app does best, we point you to that path.

Questions

How is this different from a website?

A website is mostly read. An application is used, with logins, data, permissions and workflows that change what happens next.

We already pay for industry software. Why custom?

Keep it if it fits. Custom makes sense when the misfit costs hours every week, or when your process is your advantage and generic software flattens it. Discovery sorts that out first.

Can it use the data we already have?

Yes. We routinely connect custom applications to CRMs, scheduling tools, QuickBooks and Stripe, so nothing has to be retyped.

Custom software fits the process your team already runs, so they stop working around their tools
