Independent software studio · Built from real work
Practical apps, built from the inside. For the business you run, the people you support, and the life you share.
Five apps already in daily use. Or a competitively priced custom build, with scope and quote agreed with Peter.
Built alongside a working contractor, a studio, a charity and a busy household.
The story behind the softwareReady to use
Five apps in daily use — in a working contractor, a software studio, a registered charity and a busy household. Each started with a problem we had ourselves.
For surfacing & groundworks contractors
The job book a whole firm can run on.
Scheduling, crews, job costs, invoices, CIS, Sage exports, debt chasing and site communications in one connected system — built inside a contractor and used there every working day.
14-day free trialNo card needed · then £99/month per company.
For construction & trade businesses
From the first enquiry through to cleared payment.
The commercial side on its own: leads, quotes, contracts, invoicing, applications for payment and retentions in one register — and it chases the money for you, on a ladder you set, with statements, credit limits and aged debt built in.
14-day free trialNo card needed · then £55/month or £550/year per company.
For app & software studios New
The paperwork between winning the work and getting paid.
Proposals your clients accept online, service agreements, a monthly billing run, invoices and credit control, and a portal where each client sees what you have sent them, under your own logo and colours. It runs EdwardsApps' own back office today.
Free on the App Store and the webNo card needed · set up in a few minutes.
For small UK charities
Every pot and every claim, on the record.
Donations, collection pots, Gift Aid, restricted funds, policies and compliance deadlines in one place, with a trail trustees can follow.
14-day free trialThen £12/month or £120/year.
For busy households
The household, in one shared place.
Tasks, both calendars, lists, budgets and the kids' week together — so you're both looking at the same week.
New: connect an AI assistant that speaks MCP, and ask it what's on the list instead of opening the app.

Made for you
It might be a spreadsheet, a WhatsApp thread, some duplicated admin, or a process only one person understands. Tell us how it works today and we'll shape a tool around it.
Custom builds, shaped around youCompetitively pricedClear scope and quote agreed before work begins.
Plain English is fine — and if Peter doesn't think it's worth building, he'll say so.
No technical brief needed — just what happens now, and what a good day would look like.
You see real software while it is still easy to change, rather than waiting months for a big reveal.
It goes to the people doing the job, and we adjust what matters once it is in their hands.
Behind the apps
Peter Edwards is a director of a working surfacing and groundworks contractor, chairman of a poverty-prevention charity, and spent nine years as a pub landlord. That background tends to show up in the questions asked and the details noticed.
