In-house feel
Working with us is like having an experienced in-house team, fully invested in your product.
About Codebased
We build software the way it should be built. Around you.
Codebased is a UK custom software studio. We design, build and grow bespoke web and mobile software for ambitious businesses, replacing the spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools you've outgrown with systems that fit exactly how you work.
Trusted by established UK businesses
Why we exist
Most software makes you work its way. We think that's backwards.
Off-the-shelf tools force your business to bend around their assumptions. Big agencies hand you off to juniors and disappear after launch. Either way, you end up with software that gets in the way.
We started Codebased to do it properly: senior people who take the time to understand your operation, then build software that fits it exactly, and stick around to help it grow. No jargon, no hand-offs, no surprises.
The way we work
An in-house team, without the headcount.
Working with us should feel like having a senior product team down the hall, not a faceless supplier on the other side of the world.
Open communication
We communicate often and openly, and keep you updated at every step. You're never left guessing.
Real partnerships
We're here to support you for the long run, not to disappear the moment a project ships.
Focused on business
We care about your KPIs and the bottom line, not just ticking off a spec.
A scalable team
From analysis and design to development and growth, we bring the full skillset you need.
Sharing knowledge
We know a lot about building digital products, and we're always happy to share it.
What sets us apart
Senior, UK-based, and in it for the long run.
100% UK-based
Designed and built in Britain, never offshored.
Senior engineers only
No juniors cutting their teeth on your project.
Partners, not vendors
We're here for the long run, not a single project.
