Artificially builds custom software for companies that have outgrown spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools: internal platforms, CRM and ERP systems, booking and e-commerce platforms, SaaS products, mobile apps and AI-powered workflows. We work from Bucharest, Romania, for clients across Europe and worldwide, and we publish our real price ranges so you can plan before the first call.

What drives the price
The difference between a 20,000 EUR project and a 100,000 EUR one usually comes down to five things.
- Integrations with payment providers, ERPs, shipping and other systems
- User roles and permissions
- Real-time features such as chat, live dashboards and notifications (typically +20–30%)
- AI components such as classification, recommendations or natural-language features
- Compliance requirements such as GDPR audit trails and access controls
How a project runs
A 15-minute call, then a scoped proposal within 5 days with team size, estimated hours and a budget cap. A short discovery phase (typically 2,000–5,000 EUR) maps requirements and architecture and usually saves 10–20% of the total by avoiding rework. We then build in sprints with regular demos, launch, and support the system with monthly plans and no lock-in.
The full cost of ownership
Budget for hosting (typically 50–500 EUR per month) and maintenance (about 10–15% of the build cost per year). Over three years, total cost is usually 1.5–2x the initial build — still well below enterprise SaaS licences for most mid-size companies, and the code is yours.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does custom software cost?
From about 15,000–30,000 EUR for a simple web application to 40,000–100,000 EUR for business platforms such as CRM, ERP or booking systems, and 60,000–150,000 EUR for multi-tenant SaaS. The main drivers are integrations, user roles, real-time features, AI and compliance.
Fixed price or time and materials?
We usually recommend time and materials with an agreed budget cap: you pay only for work done and keep flexibility as requirements evolve. Fixed price works for small, well-defined scopes.
Who owns the code?
You do. We work in your repositories and can deploy to your own cloud account.
When is off-the-shelf software the better choice?
When your processes match a standard product closely and licence costs stay reasonable at your size. We will tell you honestly if a tool like Salesforce, Shopify or an off-the-shelf ERP fits better.
