What it does for your shop

Own the relationship with every customer who walks in.

Not a feature list — the things that bring people back more often, lift your rating and turn your happiest customers into your loudest advocates.

🔔

A direct line to your customers

Send a message straight to their phone — fresh batch out the oven, a quiet-Tuesday offer, the new seasonal menu. Fill the slow hours without paying Instagram or a delivery app to reach your own regulars.

🔁

Turn first-timers into regulars

Digital loyalty that lives on their phone, not at the bottom of a bag. Every visit earns something, so choosing you becomes a habit — and a regular is worth far more to you than a one-off.

More five-star reviews

Send delighted customers straight to your Google reviews with one tap, and quietly catch an unhappy one before they post. Your rating climbs, and a higher rating brings more new faces through the door.

Everything they need, always right

Your full menu, opening hours and directions for every site — updated from your phone in seconds and identical for every customer. No reprints, no "are you open?" DMs.

Truly yours

Your icon on the home screen. Your name in the search bar.

On a delivery app you're one tile among hundreds, paying a commission to reach a customer who was never really yours. Your own app turns that around: the customer is yours, the relationship is yours and every screen carries nothing but your brand — the polish of a bespoke build, delivered and maintained end to end.

  • Your logo, colours and typeface throughout
  • Your own App Store & Google Play listing, in your name
  • Not a trace of our branding anywhere a customer can see

From handshake to home screen

You do almost nothing. That's the point.

Three steps on our side, a couple of short reviews on yours.

01

We brand it

Send your logo and colours — or we'll pull them straight from your shopfront and packaging. We design every screen around your brand, by hand.

02

We load your world

Menu, prices, photos and every location go in. You get a working app on your phone to play with and sign off.

03

We publish

We handle both app stores, the certificates and the back-and-forth with Apple. You get a link to share with your regulars.

We don't rush it. Every screen is crafted around your brand and tested on real devices until it's right — then the developer accounts, renewals and store admin stay with us, for good.

The people behind it

Two engineers who build it themselves.

We're a small team of two. We design, build and look after every app we make, and you work with us directly from the first call onwards.

"I build software for a living, and I wanted to put that to work for the independent shops I actually visit. Work with us and you deal with me directly — and I look after every app I build like it's my own."

Ridwan Hussein Founder · Software engineer at Chase UK · King's College London

"I spend my days building software where reliability really matters, and I bring that same care to every app we make — so yours stays fast and dependable long after it launches."

Ahmed Kafi Co-founder · Software engineer at Adaptive · King's College London
Looked after, always

An app isn't a poster. It needs keeping alive.

Apple and Google change the rules constantly. Certificates expire, phones update, security patches land. An unmaintained app quietly breaks — or gets pulled — inside a year, taking your customer connection down with it. We keep yours fast, current and on both stores, so it never does.

You run your shop. We run the app — and you never get the email from Apple.

Everything, handled

No tiers, no add-ons, no surprises. Everything below is included from day one.

  • Hosting & the agency-held developer accounts
  • Every OS & app-store compliance update
  • Security patches and bug fixes
  • Menu, price and photo changes whenever you need
  • Real human support — not a ticket queue
Before you ask

The questions every owner asks.

Do I need to be techy?

Not at all. You send your logo, menu and a few photos — or we pull them straight from your shopfront — and we handle the building, publishing and upkeep. Day-to-day changes like prices and specials take seconds from your phone.

What does it cost?

It's tailored to your shop rather than a one-size price. We'll walk you through setup and the monthly arrangement on a quick, no-obligation call — so the number always matches what you're getting.

How long until it's live?

We don't rush it. Every screen is crafted around your brand and tested on real devices before we submit to Apple and Google. We'll give you a realistic timeline on the call.

What if I want changes later?

Menu, prices, photos and opening hours you change yourself, anytime. Bigger changes are either covered by your plan or quoted up front — just ask.

Does it work if I have more than one location?

Yes. Multiple sites each get their own opening hours, directions and tap-to-call, and the app scales as you open more — so one shop or five, your customers always see the right information.

Can customers order and pay in the app?

Today the app covers menu, locations, loyalty and reviews — the things that bring people back. Ordering and payments are on the roadmap; mention it on the call and we'll talk through what's possible and when.
