Serving the Northshore and Greater New Orleans

Software for businesses that don't have a software person.Now you do.

We build the website, the app, and the automation behind them — then we keep them running. Engineers you can call, not an agency you file tickets with.

Start a project See the three services
Gridiron IQ
Live on the App Store

A coaching app designed, built, shipped and supported in-house — depth charts, player evaluations, and game planning for football staffs.

ProjectPulse AI
In production

Cost and schedule analytics for construction, with a live Procore integration pulling job data automatically.

codascon
Open source, on npm

An architecture protocol for TypeScript that our CTO wrote and maintains publicly. The standards we hold our own code to.

Built for the businesses that actually run this parish.

Contractors, marine and dock services, restaurants, clinics, law offices, home services. Businesses with real revenue, real customers, and a website somebody's cousin built in 2018.

You don't need a marketing campaign. You need the phone to ring, the quote to go out same day, and the invoice to get paid without you chasing it.

  • Your site looks broken on a phone, and most of your customers are on a phone.
  • Nobody has been able to update your site since the guy who built it stopped answering.
  • You're paying three people to retype the same job information into three systems.
  • Leads come in by text, email, Facebook, and voicemail — and some of them just die there.
  • You've wanted an app for your crews or customers for two years and never found anyone local to build it.

Three services. They stack, but you can buy one.

Most clients start with the website, then automate whatever is eating the most hours. A few come straight to us with an app idea.

Websites, and someone who maintains them

A fast, mobile-first site that says what you do, proves you're real, and makes it easy to call you or request a quote. Written for your customers, not for a design award.

Every build ships with tracking installed, your Google Business Profile connected, and a form that reaches you by text and email — so a lead can't quietly land in a spam folder.

  • Custom design and copy, five to eight pages
  • Quote request and contact forms routed to your phone
  • Google Business Profile setup and local search basics
  • Hosting, backups, monitoring and monthly edits under the care plan
What's in a website build

Custom apps for your crews and your customers

When off-the-shelf software almost fits but not quite, and the workaround has become three spreadsheets and a group text. We build the thing that fits.

iPhone, Android, or a web app your team opens in a browser — whichever suits how the work actually gets done. Field crews get something that works with one hand and bad signal.

  • Field data capture: job photos, checklists, sign-offs, time on site
  • Customer-facing scheduling, status, and payment
  • Connections to what you already use — QuickBooks, Procore, your CRM
  • App Store and Play Store submission handled, including the rejections
How an app project runs

AI automation for the work nobody wants to do

The repetitive, deadline-driven, easy-to-forget work that quietly costs you jobs. Quote follow-ups. Invoice chasing. Retyping the same information into a second system. After-hours calls that go to voicemail and never get returned.

This is not a chatbot on your website. It's specific, boring, measurable work handed to software so your people can do the work you actually bill for.

  • Every lead — call, text, form, Facebook — landing in one place, answered fast
  • Quote follow-up sequences that run themselves until someone replies
  • Job photos, notes, and voice memos turned into written reports
  • After-hours intake that captures the emergency call instead of losing it

How a project actually goes.

Step 1

A call, free

Thirty minutes. You describe the problem. We tell you whether we're the right people, including when the answer is no.

Step 2

A written scope

What gets built, what it costs, when it's done, and what we need from you. Fixed price. No hourly surprises.

Step 3

Build, in the open

You see working software early and often. Weekly check-in, and a link you can open any time to see where it stands.

Step 4

Launch and handoff

Everything in your accounts, in your name. Training for whoever on your team needs it.

Step 5

Somebody watching it

Care plan or support retainer. Monitoring, updates, backups, and a person who answers when you text.

Two engineers. You'll work with both.

Small on purpose. The person who scopes your project is the person who builds it, and the person who answers when it breaks.

Edward Gerber

Founder — projects, product, and the person you call

Mechanical engineer and PMP-certified project manager. Twenty years running capital projects in downstream oil and gas before moving into software. Built and shipped Gridiron IQ and ProjectPulse AI.

  • BSME, plus a master's in software development
  • Sergeant, U.S. Army Reserve — active DoD Secret clearance
  • Based in Madisonville. Will come walk your shop floor.

Evans Bekoe

CTO — architecture and engineering

Author of codascon, an open-source protocol that enforces software architecture at compile time, published on npm and used to keep AI-generated code structurally correct. He sets the standard our builds are held to.

  • Creator of codascon and the odetovibe code-generation CLI
  • Research background in AI system architecture and governance
  • Architect of the ProjectPulse AI platform and its Procore integration

Why that matters to a plumbing company in Covington: the same discipline that keeps a construction analytics platform from corrupting cost data is what keeps your quote form from silently dropping leads. We don't build a lesser version for small businesses.

Tell us what's broken.

Send a few sentences about your business and what's not working. Every message gets answered, usually same day. If it's not something we should take on, we'll say so and point you somewhere better.
