Lagom Studio is the custom software practice of Lagom Tech Solutions. We build software for small and mid-sized businesses that fits the way you already work, at a scale and a price that make sense for a business your size.
“Our dispatch team runs on three spreadsheets and a group text. Jobs get missed.”
Why Lagom Studio
Enterprise software costs more than you need and does more than you want. Off-the-shelf apps are cheap until you discover they don't match how your business actually runs, and then the spreadsheets come back. Custom software used to be the thing only big companies could afford.
We built Lagom Studio to close that gap. Software should fit the business, not the other way around.
Priced and designed for companies ten times your size. You pay for features you will never turn on and a rollout that takes a year.
Cheap to start. Then the workarounds begin: the export, the extra spreadsheet, the process you changed to suit the tool.
Built around how you actually operate, at the scale you actually need, for a price that makes sense for a business your size.
What we build
Most of the problems small businesses bring us land in one of these four. If yours is different, ask.
When the business runs on a dozen tabs, a shared inbox, and someone's memory, we replace that with one system built around your actual process.
Web and mobile applications your customers and team use directly: portals, booking, ordering, scheduling, field work.
Connect the software you already pay for, stop re-keying data, and get reporting that answers the questions you actually ask.
Not a chatbot bolted on for show. AI where it saves real hours: drafting, classifying, summarizing, extracting, and routing the work that eats your team's week.
Need something outside those lines, like a new digital product or modernizing a legacy application? Ask. If it's a fit we'll say so, and if it isn't we'll tell you that too.
How we work
We start with your operation, not a feature list. The simplest solution is often smaller than you expected.
The simplest system that solves the problem, with a fixed scope and a fixed price before any code is written.
Working software every week, not a reveal at the end. You see it, use it, and steer it as it takes shape.
Training, data migration, and a clean handoff. Your people are ready on day one.
Optional ongoing support, so the software keeps up with the business instead of holding it back.
Why the price works
Lagom built and operates bidit, a two-sided services marketplace with payments, provider storefronts, reviews, and native mobile apps, and PestelPro, an AI-powered market analysis product. We know what it costs to live with software after launch, so we build systems that are inexpensive to own, not just inexpensive to ship.
You work directly with the people doing the engineering. No account layers, no handoffs, no juniors learning on your budget.
We use the same tools we build for our clients. A small team using them well delivers in weeks what used to take an agency months, and that saving goes to you.
Every feature we leave out is one you never pay to build, maintain, or train people on. Right-sized is cheaper on day one and every day after.
How engagements work
Every project starts small on purpose, so you know exactly what you are buying before you buy it.
A short, fixed-price engagement. We learn how your business runs and where the real problem is.
Fixed scope, fixed price, working software every week. You see progress, not a reveal at the end.
Optional monthly support and improvement, so the software keeps pace with the business.
Pricing is set per project after Discovery, because the whole point is to size the work to your problem. You will always have a fixed number before any code is written.
Why “Lagom”
