01 - What we do
Off-the-shelf software rarely fits the way your business actually works. We design and build custom software, from customer portals and internal tools to integrations and SaaS products, that removes manual work, connects your systems and gives your team the information they need.
We favour proven, well-supported technology so your software is secure, maintainable and easy to extend.
02 - Our approach
We break projects into small, valuable releases so you see progress early:
How a software project runs:
- Discovery: processes, users, existing systems and the problem worth solving
- Specification: user stories, data model and architecture
- Design: interfaces tested with the people who will use them
- Development: short sprints with demos, code review and automated tests
- Deployment: secure hosting, monitoring and backups
- Support: maintenance, security updates and new features
03 - What you get
Software projects typically include:
- Technical discovery and a written specification
- UX and interface design
- Web application, API and database development
- Integrations with your CRM, ERP, payment or accounting systems
- Automated tests, documentation and deployment pipelines
- Hosting, monitoring and support agreements
04 - Why Lumna
We combine engineering with product design, so software is not only robust but also pleasant to use, which is what drives adoption.
You own the code and the documentation, and we write it so that any competent team could pick it up.
Questions
about software.
Request a quoteWhat kind of software do you build?
Customer portals, booking and ordering systems, internal dashboards, workflow tools, integrations between existing systems and SaaS products.
Which technologies do you use?
Typically TypeScript, React and Next.js on the front end and Node.js or Python on the back end, with PostgreSQL databases and cloud hosting. We choose tools to suit each project.
Can you take over an existing system?
Yes. We start with a code and infrastructure review, then agree a plan to stabilise, improve or replace it.
How do you estimate cost?
After discovery we provide a scoped estimate for a first release, broken into features, so you can prioritise what matters most.
How do you handle security and data protection?
We follow secure development practices, encrypt data in transit and at rest where appropriate, control access by role and design with UK GDPR in mind.
