Custom business applications
Turn spreadsheets, repetitive tasks and disconnected tools into applications built around the way your team works. Add AI where it makes a difference.
Let’s talk about your workflow
Examples of what we can build, tailored to your team—not a catalogue of ready-made products.
Combine supplier catalogues, purchasing costs, manufacturing steps and lead times. We interview your specialists and review past quotes with their source documents to capture the know-how behind each estimate, with human approval before sending.
Keep the business logic that works. Add shared access, permissions, validation, approvals and reporting, without the confusion of competing file versions.
Turn authorised meeting recordings into summaries, decisions and action items. Let participants review the results before sharing them or creating tasks.
Bring onboarding, leave requests, employee records and approvals into one workflow, with access matched to each person’s role.
Bring timesheets, invoices, payment tracking and reminders together. Reduce duplicate entry and see what needs attention.
Build the features you actually use, add the ones you are missing and choose where the application runs. No Akemis per-seat licence fee.
Custom features, AI assistance and secure automation can support any of these applications.
Add the screens, business rules, reports and integrations your team needs. Agree each extension’s scope and cost as your business evolves.
Extract information from documents, draft responses, search your business knowledge and prepare decisions, with human review where it matters.
Connect multi-step tasks across your application: gather information, prepare a proposal, request approval and carry out authorised actions.
Expose selected application functions through a secure MCP interface. Connect compatible AI assistants and harnesses with authentication, role-based permissions, audit records and approval gates for sensitive actions.
Subscription replacement is one possible project. Use this calculator to estimate current spend, then compare it with the complete cost of a custom application.
The subscription treadmill
Illustrative calculation: seats × monthly price × 12. Excludes discounts, taxes and extras. This is current spend, not promised savings.
Review real examples, source documents and existing tools. Interview the people who know the exceptions and unwritten rules.
Choose one workflow, agree the scope and compare development and running costs with the expected benefit.
Put a working application in your team’s hands. Validate the business rules, permissions and AI outputs against real examples.
Agree migration, training, hosting and support. Add capabilities as your business evolves.
We agree hosting, backups, monitoring and ongoing support, so your team can focus on using the application.
Deploy in your cloud account or on-premise, with agreed requirements, access controls and responsibility for operations.
We agree development, migration, hosting, maintenance and any third-party costs before you decide. When replacing a subscription, we independently build the functionality you need. Sometimes keeping or connecting an existing tool is the better choice.
Bring a spreadsheet, a difficult process or an idea. We’ll help define a useful first application.
