Our work and results.

Bill drafting delivered a year early.

South Dakota LRC planned two years for bill drafting. We delivered it in one and used year two to build the public legislative website.

When COVID disrupted the session, we delivered remote voting in about two weeks.

LRC chose us again.

We've worked with South Dakota LRC since 2018. In 2023, they chose us again to continue developing their software. We still work with their team as new needs arise.

Working software.
Direct collaboration.

On time and under budget should be the minimum you expect. We work with your team, adapt as needs become clearer, and weave new features into the existing scope.

Your staff help shape the system.: We work directly with the people using the software and share working software early. Their feedback guides improvements.
The history comes with you.: For South Dakota LRC, we brought in records dating to Dakota Territory that were absent from the replaced system. Data preservation is part of the work.
Delivery and ongoing support.: Staff training, documentation, integrations, hosting, and support belong in the conversation from the start. Development and ongoing costs depend on the services your project needs, and we work through those costs with you as part of the proposal.

Support around
the clock.

24/7 support for the systems your people depend on.

Contact support with an issue

Tell us which system is affected, what your team is trying to do, when the issue started, and whether work has stopped. Include an error message or example that helps us understand the problem. Keep passwords and sensitive records out of the initial message.

Azure point-in-time backups: We maintain full point-in-time backups in Azure, providing recovery to an earlier state when needed.
Full access controls: Access controls govern who can use the system and which information and functions they can access. We work with your requirements for users and permissions.

Infrastructure and monitoring

Our infrastructure includes Azure Government and Azure Commercial. We use Cloudflare for network services and self-hosted Sentry for application error monitoring. The environment depends on the service and your requirements.

Frequently asked questions.

Want to talk through something specific to your project?

Get in touch

Do you only build government software?

No. We build for government and enterprise, including financial software, document tools, mapping, and accessibility. Our work for ByteWish Foundation includes timekeeping, payroll, invoicing, sales-tax mapping, and ACH tools.

Explore our work

Can you work with the software we already use?

Yes. We build integrations, improve existing applications, and replace older systems. Our legislative work includes tools inside Microsoft Word, so staff can keep working in an editor they know.

Tell us what you use, what works well, and what gets in the way.

What happens when we need new features?

We expect useful ideas to come up as people use the software. We work with your team to adapt priorities and weave new features into the existing scope while staying on time and under budget.

Does it cost more to bring over older data?

No. Data conversion is included. We don't charge extra based on how many years of history you bring with you. For South Dakota LRC, we brought in records dating to Dakota Territory that weren't available in the system we replaced.

Who owns the source code and data?

You do. Our standard is client ownership of both. We earn your continued business through the quality of the software and the service we provide.

Can our staff export data and connect other systems?

Yes. Our systems include full exports that end users can run themselves and a full-featured OpenAPI specification for integrations. Your team can get its data without asking us to prepare an export.

What happens after the software goes live?

We provide 24/7 support and ongoing development and maintenance. We discuss training, documentation, hosting, and support with you as part of the project, including the ongoing costs.

How much will our project cost?

That depends on what you need built, the systems it connects to, and the hosting and support you need. Share your requirements, deadline, and budget so we can put together a proposal. We work through development and ongoing costs with you up front.

Is your county property-tax software available yet?

It's in development for South Dakota counties. We'd like to hear about your county's current systems, your staff's needs, and any upcoming RFPs.
