Custom database automation that fits how your business works.

Since 1997, we’ve been the automation partner for companies stuck in the growth gap—too big for spreadsheets, too lean for enterprise bloat. We build FileMaker systems, custom web apps, and integrated workflows that actually make sense for how you work.

750+ projects later, we’ve worked with everyone from regional healthcare networks to Disney, Amgen, and DirectTV. What they have in common: unique operations that generic software can’t touch, and the need for systems that scale without the enterprise headache.

The Growth Gap Problem

Here’s the scenario:

You’ve got 50 employees. Maybe 100. Sales are up, operations are drowning. Your data lives in six different places. Everyone’s hunting for information. Spreadsheets are breaking. Off-the-shelf tools almost work, but not quite.

Sound familiar?

We specialize in this exact inflection point. Companies with 20-200 employees who need automation that fits their specific workflows—not the other way around. Whether you’re coordinating multi-location inventory, managing complex client workflows, or just trying to get your systems talking to each other, we build solutions that click.

Why FileMaker?

FileMaker sits in the sweet spot for mid-market companies: more flexible than off-the-shelf software, less complex than enterprise platforms, faster to develop than custom code from scratch.

FileMaker works across your entire operation:

  • Native apps for Mac, Windows, iOS, and web browsers
  • Connects to existing data sources (SQL, Oracle, Excel, APIs)
  • Develops faster than traditional programming
  • Scales from 5 users to 500 users
  • Modifies easily as your business evolves


Perfect for companies who:

  • Value flexibility to adapt as business needs change
  • Have unique workflows that generic software can’t handle
  • Need custom reporting and dashboards
  • Want to eliminate spreadsheet-based operations
  • Require integration with multiple existing systems
