Outpost Digital Solutions

Software Development
Studio

Custom software for businesses outgrowing the spreadsheet.

We take the mess of spreadsheets, shared docs, and group chats that your company actually runs on — and turn it into software built around how you work. No generic CRM, no off-the-shelf platform. Just your software, made for you.

Start the conversation

Sound familiar?

Still running on a
shared spreadsheet?

It worked when the team was three people. It doesn’t work now. And every workaround you’ve stacked on top is one delete-key away from losing a quarter of revenue.

Spreadsheet life

Everyone sees everything — salaries, commissions, personal data.
No history. Someone deletes a row and it's gone forever.
Copy-paste errors corrupt records silently.
Your team works off different versions of the same file.
Sharing with a client means sharing your whole sheet.
Formulas break when the wrong person touches a cell.

Your software, custom-built

Role-based access — reps see their clients, owners see everything.
Full audit log on every edit. Every change is timestamped and attributed.
Validated input only. Dropdowns, not free-text mistakes.
Real-time sync. Everyone sees the same data, instantly.
Granular sharing — give a client read-only access to just their records.
A single source of truth that your whole company runs on.

How we build

No templates. Just your software.

Every build starts from zero. The goal isn’t to sell you something we’ve already written — it’s to understand your business well enough to write something that fits it.

Built from your workflow

We don't start from a template and make you fit it. We start from the way your team already works — your data, your terminology, your edge cases — and build from there.

You own every line

Your stack, your data, your code. Firebase project under your account, source on your GitHub. If we ever part ways, nothing comes down with us.

Built to outlast the hype

Firebase-backed, production-ready. Real auth, real access control, real audit logs. Not a prototype dressed up as software — the real thing, from day one.

Our process

From first call to shipped product.

Four steps. No black box. You see the software take shape at every stage, and you’re the one steering.

STEP 01

Discovery

A working conversation, not a questionnaire. We dig into the sheets you're using, the workarounds you've built, and the things that break when someone new joins the team.

STEP 02

Design

Wireframes and clickable prototypes before a line of production code. You see screens, click through flows, and tell us what's wrong — while it's still cheap to change.

STEP 03

Build

Firebase, Next.js, React Native — whatever fits. Role-based auth, real-time sync, audit logs, and permissions wired in from the first commit. Shipped in small, reviewable slices.

STEP 04

Iterate

Software grows with your business. New team, new report, new integration — we keep shipping. No surprise rewrites, no vendor-lock migrations.

What you get

Enterprise-grade, standard.

Every build ships with the things good software needs — not as add-ons or upgrade tiers, but as the baseline.

Role-based access

Reps see their clients. Managers see their teams. Owners see everything. Enforced at the database, not just the UI.

Full audit log

Every change, every user, every timestamp. Hard to fake. Useful for compliance, indispensable for trust.

Real-time sync

Multi-user editing without collisions. Everyone always sees the same truth.

Mobile-friendly

Responsive web by default. Native iOS / Android builds when the workflow needs them.

Secure by default

Firestore security rules written with care. Authentication with Google, email, or SSO.

Custom reports & CSV export

Dashboards shaped around the metrics you actually track. Raw exports whenever you need them.

Integrations

Stripe, Twilio, HubSpot, QuickBooks, webhooks — whatever the rest of your stack needs to talk to.

Owner dashboard

A console only you can see. KPIs, user management, billing visibility — the view from the top.

The toolkit

Built on ods-ui-library.

Every project we ship is built on our own component library — a battle-tested set of React + Firebase building blocks for lists, dashboards, chat, permissions, and more. Written once. Hardened over real production use. Yours from day one.

OdsList

The flagship list view.

Schema-driven CRM-style data view with per-column role permissions, expandable detail rows, multiple saved views, inline editing, grouping, sorting, and full audit log on every change. The component most of our apps are built around.

SimpleDataTable

Lightweight, generic table.

Sorting, full-text search, grouping, custom cell renderers, and a toolbar slot. For when you don’t need OdsList’s heavy machinery — just a clean, sortable table that works.

OdsCard

The building block.

A versatile card primitive with optional title, subtitle, icon, and action slot. The base of every dashboard tile and surface in the library.

OdsStatCard

KPI tiles, made simple.

Metric value, trend arrow, optional accent color. Drop them into any dashboard to surface the numbers that matter at a glance.

OdsPanel

Firestore collection in a box.

Define your fields and columns in config; OdsPanel handles read, write, and display end-to-end. Build an entire admin section without touching boilerplate.

ChatApp

Self-contained messaging.

Plug in your Firestore database and current user — get a working chat surface with channels, threads, and admin controls. Drop-in team comms.

LeaderboardApp

Gamified workflows.

Configurable team leaderboards with career levels and team coloring. Drives sales contests, agent rankings, and any internal challenge that benefits from a scoreboard.

ReceiptScanner & ReceiptList

Receipts, end-to-end.

Capture, OCR, categorize, and manage receipts. From mobile upload through accounting export — useful for any team tracking expenses in the field.

Permissions toolkit

Role-based access, baked in.

buildDefaultPermissions and the PermissionsMatrix type let you define column-level access once and apply it everywhere. Reps see their clients; managers see their teams; owners see everything — enforced at the database, not just the UI.

Mock data hooks

Demo-first development.

useClientListMock and useReceiptListMock generate realistic mock data so you can build, design, and demo without standing up Firestore. Swap to the live hooks the day you’re ready.

Components are versioned and shipped as a private package — every project gets the same foundation, every fix flows back across them all.

Examples of the work

A taste of what a custom build looks like.

These are sample projects we’ve built to show the caliber of what we ship. Yours wouldn’t look like either — that’s the whole point.
