Service — Custom platforms & tools
Custom platforms that fit around your process
A custom platform is software built exactly around your process: a client portal, internal dashboard, planning tool or full SaaS product. Van Borg designs and builds these platforms from first prototype to scalable production environment — for when standard software pinches or simply doesn't exist.
What you get
Product thinking, not just code
We start from the problem and the users, not from features. So you only build what adds value.
A working prototype fast
A clickable, testable product within weeks — so you decide on real user feedback instead of assumptions.
Scalable, secure architecture
Built on modern, proven technology with security, privacy and growth in mind — from 10 to 10,000 users without a rebuild.
AI where it adds value
Smart search, automatic processing and assistants, built into your platform where they genuinely save time.
Where it pays off immediately
Client portals
Clients checking their own status, documents and invoices — fewer emails, more trust.
Internal dashboards
All key numbers from different systems live in one view, instead of monthly Excel archaeology.
Industry-specific tools
Software for niches without a decent off-the-shelf option — your way of working as a product.
SaaS products
From idea to sellable product, including accounts, payments and administration.
Frequently asked questions
When should you choose custom software over an off-the-shelf package?
Choose standard software when it covers 80% or more of your process. Choose custom when your process is your competitive edge, when your team works around limitations daily, or when separate tools need to be connected. We'll run this calculation honestly with you in the strategy call — sometimes our advice is not to build.
How long does building a custom platform take?
A first working version is typically live within four to eight weeks. After that we iterate based on real usage. You never wait months for a delivery you can only hope is right.
Who owns the software after delivery?
You do. Source code, data and documentation are your property, cleanly transferable to any other team. We'd rather keep you as a client through good work — not lock-in.
