Bespoke Development
Software that fits your organisation. Not the other way round.
When the spreadsheet’s groaning and the off-the-shelf tool almost does it, we build the thing that actually does. Custom platforms, integrations and internal tools, from the team that builds and runs its own products.
£2.6M
Facilitated in year one by the payment modernisation we delivered for CMO Group PLC.

Live products we build and run in-house, so we feel your maintenance pain too.
100%
Of the code is yours. No lock-in, no hostage-taking.
What’s included
From idea to maintenance,software that works.
Five stages, in the open, with working software long before the end. No black boxes, no big reveals.
Discovery & scoping
We map the workflow before we touch the tech. What you get: a spec you could take anywhere.
Architecture
Boring, proven foundations. Exciting software is what you build on top.
Build in the open
Working software every couple of weeks, not a big reveal at the end.
Testing & payments
Especially where money changes hands. We’ve launched Apple Pay and Google Pay across a national retail estate; we know the checklist.
Handover & care
Documentation, training, and support if you want it.
Why Harri Digital
Bespoke development, from a team that runs its own.
Pitch, The Bridge of Lights and Luminary don’t maintain themselves. That’s the standard your build inherits.
Same senior team, start to finish
No junior handoff halfway through. The person who scopes your project is the person who builds it.
We run our own products
Pitch, The Bridge of Lights and Luminary are ours to keep alive at 2am. That changes how carefully we build yours.
No middle-management markup
You’re not paying for account managers relaying messages. You talk directly to the person doing the work.
Honest answers
Sometimes you shouldn’t build. We’ll say so.
Buy it when...
- A good off-the-shelf tool covers 90% of the job.
- Your process is standard, and there’s no shame in that.
- Budget is tight and a subscription gets you moving today.
Build it when...
- The workarounds cost more than the software would.
- The tool is your competitive edge, not just your admin.
- You’re integrating systems that were never meant to meet.
A scoping call costs you nothing and might save you a build.
No hourly rate. No surprise invoice.
We scope the whole project up front and agree a fixed price before any work starts. If the brief changes significantly partway through, we’ll tell you before it costs you anything, not after.
Questions
Bespoke development questions, answered.
How much does bespoke development cost?
More than a template, less than a year of workarounds. We scope first and give you a fixed price, so you decide with real numbers.
Who owns the code?
You do. Repository, documentation, the lot.
Can you take over an existing system?
Usually, yes. We’ll audit it first and tell you honestly whether it’s worth rescuing.
Do you handle payment and ecommerce work?
Yes. Our biggest agency win to date modernised payments across eight national superstores for CMO Group PLC: Apple Pay and Google Pay, £2.6M facilitated in year one.
