Retail

Store apps, stock systems and ecommerce platforms that store teams like using and customers barely notice.

What we see

Retail software is judged on the shop floor. If an app is slower than paper, staff go back to paper, and the data head office relies on quietly gets worse.

Our designers work shifts in stores before we design anything, and we pilot with ten stores before rolling out to three hundred. We’ve built for grocery, fashion and home improvement chains in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Oman, always around the Ramadan and Eid trading peak.

What we build

  • Shop assistant restocking shelves

    Store and colleague apps

    Gap scans, deliveries, price changes and tasks on the phones staff already carry.

  • Stock, pricing and promotions

    Replenishment and pricing systems that react in hours, not at the weekly report.

  • Ecommerce and orders

    Order management, click and collect and marketplace integrations that survive White Friday and 11.11.

  • Loyalty and customer data

    Customer data that’s accurate, consented and useful to the people planning ranges.

  • Supplier portals

    Where suppliers confirm orders, deliveries and invoices without chains of email.

Questions from retail teams

Can you work during the Ramadan and Eid trading peak?

We plan for it. Discovery and build work carry on; releases to stores pause from two weeks before Ramadan until after Eid al-Fitr, and over the November sales, unless you ask otherwise.

Do you handle card payments?

We integrate with your payment provider and keep card data out of your systems, which keeps your PCI DSS scope as small as possible.

Can you test in our stores?

We prefer to. Our teams pilot with a small group of stores, visit them weekly and change the product based on what staff tell us.
