BUILT FOR THE SHOP FLOOR ✦ MIDWEST US

We build the software that manufacturers actually use.

Operational software, AI systems, and complete products — built one piece at a time, around the way your people already work.

CAPABILITIES

Three disciplines. One standard: your people actually use it.

Most shops have software somebody bought that nobody opens. It got built around how software companies think the work happens, not how it actually happens on the floor — so people went back to the whiteboard and the group text, and the licence renews anyway.

01
OPERATIONAL SOFTWARE

Custom apps for the shop floor

✦

Material requests, work orders, field-to-office workflows. Web and iOS, built to be used on a shop floor by people who have no patience for software.

02
AI SYSTEMS

Automation that earns its keep

✦

Document processing for POs, RFQs, and invoices. Quoting assistants. Anomaly flags on pricing and spend. AI aimed at a specific bottleneck, never at a press release.

03
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Your idea, built and shipped

✦

Bring us the product in your head. We architect and build it end to end — iOS and web apps, Bluetooth hardware, cloud backends, App Store review and release. One person from sketch to shipped — the same one who scoped it.

CONSTRUCTION / FABRICATION

Materials Request Platform

PROBLEM

Orders lived in texts, paper, and memory. Crews waited; purchasing chased.

BUILD

Crews submit requests from the iOS field app; they hit the office portal instantly with live order state across field, shop, purchasing, and delivery.

HOW ENGAGEMENTS RUN

Fixed scope. Working software early. No black boxes.

STAGE I — DISCOVERYNO CHARGE

Put a dollar figure on the bottleneck

One to two weeks, working remotely against your real numbers — a walkthrough of the job as it actually runs, your own documents, your own systems. You end up with a defensible annual cost for the bottleneck and an honest recommendation, including “don't build this” when that's the answer. No fee, no obligation. We ask for your time and your paperwork, nothing else.

STAGE II — PROPOSALONE NUMBER

A fixed price for the first piece

Not the whole system on day one. The one workflow worth fixing first, scoped and priced firm — with an honest range for everything after it. Half at signature, half on delivery. No hourly meter, no change-order ambush.

STAGE III — BUILD

Working software in weeks, not quarters

Something your people can actually use inside two months — then you decide whether there's a next piece. Progress you can click the whole way: a demo of running software every week, not a status deck.

STAGE IV — LAUNCH & PROVE

Measure against the baseline

Deploy, train your people, then run the Stage I arithmetic again — same numbers, same source, same people in the room. You’ll know what changed, either way.

STAGE V — SUPPORT

Somebody answers in month six

Support is agreed at signature, not sold to you after launch. Hosting, monitoring, backups, fixes — and the person who built it is the person who picks up.

Justus Escarpita, founder of Cedallion

Cedallion is one person. The one who scopes your project is the one who builds it — no account manager, no handoff, nobody junior doing the work.

I build the software my family’s construction company runs on — materials ordering, estimating, scheduling — and it’s in daily use on real jobs, which is a harder test than a client demo. I also engineered a Bluetooth-connected training app from the architecture up, through App Store review and into beta under licence with a national brand.

Bring us the bottleneck.

A discovery, run remotely over one to two weeks, at no charge. You'll get what the bottleneck costs you today, what fixing it looks like, and a fixed price for the first piece. If the honest answer is that software isn't the fix, we'll tell you that instead.
