Custom project tools
The process that works on paper and falls apart in Excel — turned into something your team will actually use.
- Drawing & document registers
- Subcontracts and scopes
- Tendering and buyout
- Change and cost tracking
We're a small development company building custom tools for contractors and builders. You'll have something working in weeks, not quarters.
Every construction business runs on a few processes nobody sold them software for. We build the tool that fits the way you already work.
The process that works on paper and falls apart in Excel — turned into something your team will actually use.
Documents arrive by email and leave by hand. We automate the reading, sorting and checking so nobody re-keys a ticket at 6pm.
The spreadsheet everyone depends on and nobody trusts. The half-finished tool the last developer left behind.
Our own platform for contractors — the contract, the work bought against it, and the site paperwork that ties back to both, in one place.
Everything you're obligated to build, organized and tracked instead of buried in a PDF.
Who is doing what, what's been missed, and where the gaps between trades are.
From invitation to award without three versions of the same spreadsheet.
Tickets and reports read, filed and checked against what you bought.
BuildOrigins is in pilot now. We have room for a small number of early accounts — get in touch if you'd like one.
Being small is the point. No long discovery phase, and nobody between the conversation and the work.
A few days with the people doing the work — not a requirements workshop.
A real tool, loaded with your projects, in your hands. You judge it by using it.
Every couple of weeks there's something new. What we build next is what you say matters next.
Or we hand it over to your team. Your call, and it's on the table from day one.
We're not trying to be an enterprise software company. The value of a small shop is that your project is the work.
We started Origins after years of watching good projects run on spreadsheets held together by one person's memory.
One of us has spent a career in construction — contracts, procurement, coordination, closeout. The other builds software. That's the whole company, and it's who you'll be working with.
Send us the process costing your team hours every week. We'll tell you straight away whether it's worth building.
