ReliableSystems built to run a counter on a Monday morning, not to demo well.
SecureBuilt for POPIA from day one. Your records are kept apart from every other business, and every change is logged.
PartnerYou keep the code and the data. No lock-in, no black boxes.
What we do
Develop. Automate. Scale. Launch.
Four things, done properly. We take the process you already run on spreadsheets, paper books and WhatsApp, and turn it into a system that holds up under load.
Develop custom software
Software built around how your business actually works, instead of forcing your business to work the way a package expects. Stock systems, tills, customer portals, internal tools. Built with well-known tools, so another developer can pick it up in five years without starting over.
The repeat work goes away. Quote to invoice, stock to ledger, service due to reminder sent — the handoffs that leak money get wired together and logged.
Numbers you can act on, and fewer people needed to produce them. How hard each unit is working, who owes you and for how long, what each asset earns, and what it costs you standing still. Straight off today's figures, not pieced together at month-end.
Got the idea but not the build? We take it from a conversation to a working product — scoped, costed, built and shipped, with you owning the code at the end of it.
HIRE IQ — the hire desk, the fleet and the ledger in one system.
An ERP and point-of-sale platform for equipment, vehicle and plant hire businesses. Everything from the scan at the counter to the invoice SARS will accept, with the traffic-fine and privacy side South African operators actually need.
Fleet and equipment register. Every unit as available, on hire, reserved, in for maintenance or retired, with its full history.
Maintenance reminders — services flagged before they fall due, by date or by recorded usage, per unit.
Counter POS — barcode and QR scanning, fast checkout, pre-hire checklists and digital contract signing.
Book-out and return — expected return dates, damage and cleaning charges calculated on the return workflow.
SA compliance built in — 15% VAT, SARS-structured invoices, AARTO fine redirection and POPIA consent handling.
Debtor and creditor ledgers — live balances, credit-limit warnings, aging reports and statements.

Design preview of work in progress. HIRE IQ has not been commercially released and this is not a screenshot of a live installation.
Keeps selling when the internet goes down. Your prices sit on the till itself, and every sale is saved on the machine before anything else can go wrong.
Real hardware — barcode scanners, thermal and serial receipt printers, cash drawers.
Stock that knows its age — batch and expiry tracking, oldest-expiring stock sold first.
Ready for SARS. Invoice numbers that never skip a number, VAT figures your return needs, and records kept the full five years.
A till cannot cook the books — prices and totals are set by the server, never by the machine on the counter.
Second product
Prospra IQ — a till that keeps trading when the line drops.
Point of sale and light ERP for South African retail. Built for shops where the connection is not a given and the receipt printer is older than the laptop.
Every engagement runs the same way. You know what is being built, what it costs and when it lands before any code is written.
Discovery
We sit with the people doing the work and map how it actually happens, including the shortcuts they have invented to get round the current system. You get a written scope out of it, not a sales presentation.
Design
Data model, screens and integration points agreed up front. You approve the shape of the system before anything is built.
Build
Short cycles with something usable at the end of each one. You see progress continuously and can redirect early, when it is still cheap.
Run
Deployment, data migration, training and support. Monitoring and audit logging from day one, so problems surface before your customers find them.
