A storefront
that sells.
An engine
you run.
Business,
assembled into a system.
Storefront
and engine together.

I put the whole business into one system: a storefront that brings in and serves clients, and an admin panel where you run things. Leads, warehouse, cash desk, payroll, reports.

We work with businesses in five countries

The “before” state

The business lives in your head, a notebook and spreadsheets

These aren’t my words. They’re quotes from owners on our first calls, translated word for word — from different countries, different niches, different sizes.

“I’m a guy, a pen and a scrap of paper… I don’t know how much I earn, how much I spend”

Hair extensionsLos Angeles

“Why is it all a mess? I dished out wages to everyone left and right and I have no idea what I earned”

Demolition and cleaningUSA

“He showed me his notebook. I said: bro, you have a half-million-dollar car and you’re running it in a notebook?”

Car rentalPhiladelphia

“It’s fully finished and working, very convenient — in the developers’ opinion. That’s why I still keep Google Sheets”

Cafe and wine barUkraine

What all four share — not a missing website. A missing system — one that shows the business in numbers and can be run without keeping it all in your head.

One day

What actually changes

Not “process optimization”, but one real day of a salon owner — before the system and after. The hours are real, taken from work calls.

  • 08:40A call: “anything free at two?” — you flip through the notebook while the client waits
  • 09:15The client didn’t show. Nobody sent a reminder — that slot went to waste
  • 12:00You add up revenue in a spreadsheet. Two numbers don’t match, you hunt for where
  • 15:20A stylist asks: “how much did I make this week?” — you count it by hand
  • 18:30You reconcile shifts and payroll. Another evening over a spreadsheet
  • 21:10You remember you didn’t order supplies. Stock levels are nowhere to be seen
  • 08:40The booking came in by itself through the site. The slot is taken, nothing for you to do
  • 09:15Reminders went out a day ahead and an hour ahead. The client came
  • 12:00Revenue in the panel for any period. It added up by itself
  • 15:20The stylist sees their shifts and total in their own dashboard
  • 18:30Payroll was calculated from actual shifts. You only check it
  • 21:10The system flagged it: stock below the minimum. The order was placed the same day

What I do

One project — two layers. You can’t skip either

A storefront without an engine is a pretty picture that changes nothing inside. An engine without a storefront is a spreadsheet that brings no clients. We build both and wire them together into one system.

volt-taxi.com.ua
VOLT taxi service site — order page
dispatcher panel
Dispatcher panel: orders, drivers, finances, demand by day

The client sees

  • A site or app that works on a phone just as well as on a laptop
  • An order, booking or purchase in the fewest steps
  • Online payment, a personal dashboard, order status
  • The language, currency and quirks of your exact market

You see

  • All leads in one place, with history and assignees
  • Money: revenue, costs, payroll, debts — in numbers, not by feel
  • Roles: a manager sees only their own leads; you see the whole picture
  • Reports that build themselves and alerts in Telegram

Niches

I’ve already dug into a business like yours

Every niche has its own logic. So instead of adapting someone else’s template, I build the system around the way your process actually works.

Rental and fleet

Bookings, deposits, insurance, service, fines, driver payouts

Taxi and delivery

Dispatch, rates and zones, driver app, payouts

HoReCa

Menu and table orders, kitchen, cash desk, inventory, food cost

Salons and studios

Online booking, stylists, client cards, reminders, payroll

Retail and manufacturing

Catalog, stock levels, orders, production stages, suppliers

Logistics and warehouse

Receiving, putaway, shipping, client dashboard, invoices

Service crews

Sites, work orders in Telegram, daily payouts, the day’s cash forecast

Education

Courses and lessons, homework, student progress, payments, community

Psychologists and coaches

Booking, client dashboard, journals, payments, repeat sessions

Cinema and events

Listings, seating map, seat booking, cash desk, bar

Agencies and studios

Projects, tasks, time, invoices, client reports

Yours not on the list?

Then it will be the twelfth. I’ll figure it out from scratch — working it out from scratch is what I do every time

How I work

Come without a spec

The most common praise from clients sounds like this: “you can work with him without a spec — he pulls the thoughts out of your head and structures them”. That is exactly where I start.

  1. 01

    A talk about business, not about a website

    I ask how your money, leads and people are set up and where time is lost every day. No jargon, no “so what is your stack”.

  2. 02

    I fix the scope and the price range

    In writing: what is included, what won’t be there, what it costs and where the ceiling is. Before the work starts, not after.

  3. 03

    Clickable prototype

    First the part you can open and click through — so you see the system before it is fully paid for.

  4. 04

    Features in parts

    I hand it over in blocks so the team gets used to it gradually. “It has to really be three to five buttons” is a requirement, not a nice-to-have.

  5. 05

    Launch and data migration

    I move over what has piled up in spreadsheets and notebooks. I train the team. I’m still in touch.

  6. 06

    Growth

    Business changes — so does the system. We add modules as you grow instead of rewriting from scratch.

Payment in stages 30% at the start · 40% at the working version · 30% at launch
Scope fixed in writing Together with what the project won’t include
The code and data are yours The system runs on your server, the access is handed to you

What people say

Word for word, from work calls

“Dima is the only programmer you can work with without a spec. He senses intuitively what I need. He is like artificial intelligence — he already knows you”
Car rental ownerPhiladelphia, USA
“I just stood at a traffic light for 30 seconds — and while I stood there I handed out five tasks”
Video production managerthis used to take half an hour
“Someone has to take all the thinking out of my head and make it real. He keeps pulling the thoughts out of my head and tries to structure them”
Car rental ownerUSA
“Fast, great and beautiful. Honestly impressive”

“They are enjoying this platform so much now. The tester says: this is just something where everything is convenient”

Economics

The system is your asset, not a rental

Off-the-shelf services charge every month and get pricier as you grow. On top of that they are built for a standard way of working — so the business adapts to the software, not the other way around.

Real math from a talk with a salon chain: the off-the-shelf service they were on cost $120 a month, their own system — about $10 a month for hosting. The difference is that the second one is also built the way this exact business works.

Off-the-shelf subscription

  • A payment every month, forever
  • Price grows with the number of employees
  • The process adapts to the software
  • Data on a server you don’t own
  • The feature you need may never appear

Your own system

  • Development once, then just hosting
  • Any number of users
  • The software is built for your process
  • The server, code and data are yours
  • I just add the feature you need

Do the math on your numbers

Rates from a real salon chain case: off-the-shelf $12 per person per month, own server $10 per month in total. The cost of the development itself we discuss separately — it differs for every process.

Formats

What it costs

We show the ranges up front — so you know the ballpark before you’ve even written to us. The exact number comes after a talk about your processes.

First launch

from $2 500

2–3 months

When you need to go live fast and check that the system sticks.

  • A site or app for clients
  • Admin panel with basic sections
  • Lead intake and notifications
  • Data migration from spreadsheets
  • Team training

Platform

from $15 000

from 6 months

When there are several systems, many users and complex processes.

  • Several roles and dashboards
  • Mobile app for iOS and Android
  • Multiple languages and currencies
  • AI assistants inside the processes
  • Complex integrations and data exchange

The exact number appears after the first talk — together with the project’s scope and budget ceiling put in writing. Payment in stages: 30% at the start, 40% at the working version, 30% at launch. Support and growth are separate, billed monthly.

Next step

Tell me how your business works

The first talk is free and doesn’t commit you to anything. We ask about processes, not about technology — and right there it becomes clear what can be automated first and what is better left alone.

  • No spec needed — we’ll write it together
  • If a ready-made service would solve it cheaper, I’ll tell you straight
  • After the talk — scope of work and price range in writing

Questions

The things people ask most often

I don’t know what exactly I need. What should I come with?

With nothing. Come with the way the work runs now: where you keep records, where leads come from, who is responsible for what, what annoys you most. The spec is our part of the job, not yours.

I have already paid developers and nothing came of it

That usually happens when the scope isn’t fixed in writing and everyone pictures the result differently. So I fix it before the start: what is included, what won’t be there, what it costs and where the ceiling is. And every project on this page can be opened and checked yourself.

My staff don’t like change. Will they handle it?

That is why the features are handed over in parts and the worker interface is kept as simple as possible: a person sees only what concerns their job, usually just a few buttons. The full picture is yours to see.

Why build my own system when ready-made CRMs exist?

If a ready-made service covers your process — take it, and we’ll say so. You need your own system when the process doesn’t fit a standard workflow, when the subscription grows with the team, or when the site, accounting and messenger have to be stitched into a single system.

What happens to the data already piled up in spreadsheets?

We move it. In one project we migrated a Google spreadsheet of 21 sheets with 16 macros and a history of tens of thousands of rows. The import is always tested on the real client file before launch.

Who owns the system after launch?

You do. The system is deployed on your server, the access is handed to you. After that you pay only for hosting — and for further work, if you need it.

Do you work only in Ukraine?

No. The projects include a car rental and a fulfillment warehouse in the USA, a car-rental marketplace in Poland, an art studio in Lithuania. We work remotely, keeping in touch over video.
