Work that kept getting stuck, turned into a system.

WHAT IT IS

One interface for the whole house. Lighting, heating, security, cameras, music and the car sit on a single screen, designed to be read at a glance and tapped without thinking. It runs on a wall-mounted display and replaced a pile of separate apps, each with its own login.

WHY WE BUILT IT FIRST

Home Assistant is the platform we build on: it talks to the devices, runs the automations and keeps control local rather than in someone else's cloud. The dashboard is the part people actually touch. Running our own first is how we learn what survives a real household: which automations earn their keep, what has to be on the first screen, and how to keep it maintainable when a device changes.

THE PROBLEM

Bike parts customers arrive with a fitment question. Standard catalogues make them guess, and a wrong guess means a return, a refund and a support email. For a specialist parts business, that uncertainty is the most expensive thing on the site.

WHAT WE BUILT

A part finder built around the bike instead of a search box. The customer clicks the highlighted part on the bike and gets the compatible bearings and upgrade kits for it. Around that sits the rest of the shop: categories, cart, a trade page for workshops, and an import workflow that keeps stock data in one place rather than copied between systems.

THE PROBLEM

A proper site audit means checking a dozen areas: speed, structure, metadata, links, images, schema, security, mobile behaviour. Done by hand it is slow and inconsistent, and the raw output from audit tools is unreadable for the person who has to act on it.

WHAT WE BUILT

A tool that takes a URL and runs the checks in one pass, scoring each category and writing each finding as a plain line: what was checked, what was found, and whether it matters. It renders the page in a real browser first, so sites built with JavaScript are audited properly rather than judged on an empty shell.

THE PROBLEM

Public sector work is a real pipeline for a small firm, but the opportunities are scattered across national portals and individual council sites. Someone has to check them daily, read past the irrelevant ones and spot the few worth bidding for. That is a job nobody has time for, and missing a good fit costs a contract.

WHAT THE AGENT DOES

It runs on a schedule rather than waiting to be asked. It sweeps the portals, filters to the categories the business actually delivers, scores each opportunity against a capability profile, and drafts a response for the strongest matches using the company knowledge base.

THE PROBLEM

Engineering teams lose days to administrative drawing checks: title blocks, revisions, tolerances, standard callouts. The work is repetitive, it is easy to miss something, and every error found late costs more than the check would have.

WHAT WE BUILT

A web product where a drawing goes in and a structured check comes out. Upload a PDF, the pipeline classifies it, extracts the fields that matter and tests them against a standards knowledge base. Anything uncertain is flagged for a person rather than silently passed.

THE CHALLENGE

In a specialist niche, buyers need more than contact details. They need to understand the bloodlines, see the stock properly and trust the breeder before they enquire. Without that structure, reputation stays fragmented across word of mouth, messages and scattered content.

WHAT KINKO BUILT

A site centred on authority, proof and enquiry: a cinematic homepage, achievements content, a dedicated Dikke Line story page, a stock catalogue, individual pigeon profiles, gallery content and direct routes into form, email, phone and WhatsApp contact.

THE PROBLEM

Bathroom work is a considered purchase. Customers compare several fitters before they call, and most trade websites look the same: a couple of stock photos, a phone number, and no evidence of the work itself. The business behind the site deserved better than that.

WHAT WE BUILT

A site built around proof and clarity. Plain positioning that says what they do, separate pages for bathrooms, plumbing and heating, a project archive with individual pages for real jobs, a cost guide answering the question every customer asks first, and local pages for the towns they cover.

THE SITUATION

Order details and job status lived across three spreadsheets and two inboxes. Chasing the right status took staff away from the shop floor.

WHAT WE BUILT

We connected order intake to job tracking, added stock alerts and gave the team one live job board. Status updates replaced the daily envelope chase.

THE SITUATION

Quotes were retyped from design notes into a job, then into an invoice. Mid-project changes meant the numbers drifted from the real cost.

WHAT WE BUILT

An approved quote now flows into the job and the invoice without retyping. Extras and changes are logged as the work happens, so the final figure reflects what was actually done.

THE SITUATION

Jobs were updated in the office, then again from the van, then again in a report. Three versions of the truth, none of them current.

WHAT WE BUILT

A live job list the field team updates directly, with reminders for what is due and a report assembled as the jobs progress.

THE SITUATION

Enquiries, deposits and bookings were spread across inbox threads and a diary. A missed follow-up or a forgotten deposit slipped through.

WHAT WE BUILT

Enquiries become a booking with a deposit reminder, all in one list. A small AI assistant answers the common booking questions and sends the follow-up, so the artist works instead of chasing.
