Custom software, AI and cybersecurity from one team
We take a business from scattered tools and paperwork to one system it can depend on, then make that system smarter and keep it secure. The same engineers design it, build it and run it.
Software engineering
Complete business platforms: the office application, the field and mobile experience, and the app customers use.
- Web and mobile applications
- Customer portals and branded apps
- Integrations with the tools you keep
Applied AI
AI that does real work inside the business: answering customers, reading documents and checking the details people miss.
- AI agents for calls, texts and chat
- Document review and compliance checks
- Automated scheduling and follow-up
Cybersecurity
Security software that tests, protects and watches over a business's applications, accounts and AI systems.
- Security testing of apps and code
- Continuous monitoring and alerts
- Compliance readiness and documentation
How we build
Four rules shape every system we deliver, whatever the industry.
Custom built
We design and build software around each client's own operation: their workflow, their documents and their people. The software fits the business, so the business never has to bend to the software.
Proven foundations
We build on established, industry-standard infrastructure and spend our engineering on the part that makes your business different.
Secure by default
Every system ships with access by role and a security review on every release, and can be backed by our own security products.
Operated by the builders
The team that engineered your system supports it. Questions and changes go straight to the people who know it best.
Business software we build and run
Our own platforms, tailored to every client, and fully custom software for operations that need something built from the ground up.
Projects, contracts, crews, daily field logs, budgets, approvals, an owner portal with e-signatures, and certified payroll checks.
A branded app for each business: booking with deposits, client history with photos, a product shop, rewards and an owner dashboard.
Answers calls, texts, website chat and social messages around the clock, books appointments, sends reminders and requests reviews.
Scans applications and code for weaknesses, tests AI systems against misuse, and prepares the documentation compliance and cyber insurance require.
Watches applications, accounts and websites around the clock and alerts your team the moment something needs attention.
Web, mobile and AI applications designed and engineered from scratch around a single business's operation.
Cybersecurity for small and mid-size businesses
Attackers target small and mid-size businesses because they rarely have a security team. CBT Defense gives them one: Shield to find and fix weaknesses, Sentinel to watch around the clock. No single tool makes a business untouchable; layers of protection make it a hard target.
CBT Shield
Tests your applications, code and AI systems the way an attacker would, then tells you exactly what to fix.
- Application and code security scans
- AI system testing on every change
- Two-step sign-in and access reviews
- Compliance readiness for government contracts
- Cyber insurance preparation
CBT Sentinel
Keeps watch over your systems day and night and raises the alarm before a small problem becomes a costly one.
- Continuous monitoring of apps and websites
- Uptime and error alerts
- Suspicious sign-in detection
- Monthly security reports
- Backup checks and recovery planning
How a custom software project works
Every client goes through the same five phases. We set everything up, so your team starts with a working system.
Discovery
We study how your business runs today, where work is lost and what it costs.
Design
We design the system around your services, roles, documents and rules.
Build and migrate
We build and test it, then move your existing records into it.
Launch
We train your team and go live together, with us on hand.
Operate
We keep it updated, secure and improving as your business grows.
