Software that solves business problems
Is your business spending too much time, money or effort working around an inefficient process?
Dan Spelt helps businesses identify where technology can improve efficiency, reduce costs and create better ways of working — then designs and builds the software to make it happen.
You bring the problem. Dan finds the opportunity.

Start with the problem. Not the software.
You don't need to know what technology you need.
Dan starts by understanding how your business works, where time and resources are being lost, and whether software can deliver a worthwhile return.
If it can, he develops a solution around your business — rather than asking your business to adapt to someone else's software.

Before deciding what to build, start by understanding the business problem and the potential return.

Have a problem worth solving?
The first conversation isn't about selling you software. It's about determining whether there's a better, more efficient and more cost-effective way to do what you're doing now.
