Systems running real businesses
A closer look at some of the systems we have designed, built and still support today.
Aroma, New Malden
The brief
Aroma wanted guests to order and pay from their table without waiting for staff, and wanted every order to reach the kitchen straight away, clearly printed and without mistakes.
Ongoing support
We look after the hosting and keep adding features as the restaurant asks for them, such as new menu options, printer improvements and the collection app.
What we built
- A QR code on each table opens the menu on the customer’s phone, with no app to download
- Customers choose options such as salads and sauces, with required choices so nothing is missed
- Payment by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Stripe before the order is sent
- Paid orders print automatically in the kitchen with the Aroma logo, and appear on a live kitchen display tablet
- An admin panel for menu items, prices and photos (uploaded photos are resized automatically)
- Order history, daily and monthly sales reports, and a printed daily closing report
- Ordering hours controlled from the admin panel
- A Click & Collect app for iPhone and Android, which we are now taking through App Store and Google Play launch
RedLionMOT
The brief
A busy garage needed one place to take bookings, look up vehicles, run jobs and produce invoices, instead of paper diaries and separate tools.
Ongoing support
We support the system on an ongoing basis. For example, when mileage readings looked wrong we traced it to how units came back from DVSA data and fixed it across the whole system.
What we built
- Online MOT and service booking for customers
- Live DVSA lookups for vehicle details, MOT history and mileage
- Job cards and service package checklists for the workshop
- PDF invoices and a staff view of all web bookings
- A staff dashboard that runs the garage day to day
- Booking reports for any date range, with filters, revenue and VAT totals, service and payment breakdowns, charts, Excel export and print or PDF
- Search engine work on the public website: faster images, business schema and FAQ content
Webwudu CRM (our own)
The brief
We wanted one system to run Webwudu itself: customers, work, money and sales, without paying for several separate subscriptions.
Ongoing support
We use it every day, so it keeps improving. It is the same approach we take when building systems for clients.
What we built
- Clients, projects and invoices in one place
- Expenses with receipts, VAT handling and UK tax categories
- A shared inbox that links emails to the right customer automatically
- Cold-calling campaigns with a call console, pitch library and call logging
- VoIP integration that shows live call status and records talk time
- Automatic lead finding from public business listings
- A social media planner that turns a strategy document into a tickable plan
- Staff roles and permissions, so each person sees only what they need
CarStorePK
The brief
CarStorePK needed a marketplace where people in Pakistan can list cars for sale and buyers can search them, on the web and on Android.
Ongoing support
We host and maintain the platform, including server security, updates and new app releases.
What we built
- A searchable marketplace with hundreds of live listings
- Seller accounts with sign-in by email or mobile number
- Photo uploads for each listing
- A companion Android app that uses the same backend, downloadable from the website
- SEO-friendly listing pages
- A move to a new, hardened server with no loss of data
