PlanWise is a software consultancy for organisations that need a product built properly. We scope the problem before we quote, design it with your users, build it with senior engineers and hand it over running in your own cloud.

Built and run on the platforms your team already trusts
Engage us for a single phase or the full journey — from the first discovery workshop through to a product running in production with your team supporting it.
Turn a rough idea into a costed, prioritised delivery plan — with the risky assumptions tested before you commit budget.
Web platforms, internal tools and customer portals built by small senior teams, shipped in two-week increments you can review.
Learn more about Custom Software DevelopmentResearch-led interface design and a component library your developers can build from without guesswork.
Learn more about UI/UX DesignInfrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines and monitoring — so deploying to production stops being an event.
Learn more about Cloud & DevOpsMove legacy systems off ageing platforms incrementally, without a risky big-bang rewrite or a feature freeze.
Learn more about Application ModernisationAutomated test coverage, performance testing and an ongoing support agreement with response times in writing.
Learn more about Quality Engineering & SupportSeven stages, one accountable team. Each stage ends with something you can review and a decision that is yours to make — nothing moves forward without your sign-off.
Workshops with your stakeholders, interviews with the people who will use the product, and a hard look at the systems it has to live alongside.
Discovery becomes a delivery plan you can budget against: what gets built first, what waits, and what it is likely to cost.
Clickable prototypes tested with real users, then a design system your engineers can build from without guesswork.
Small senior teams shipping working software every fortnight, in your repositories, against a backlog you control.
Quality built into the pipeline rather than discovered by a customer — regression, performance and security checks before anything ships.
Infrastructure as code, automated pipelines and monitoring, in your own cloud accounts — so going live is routine and reversible.
A support agreement with response times in writing and time each month for improvements — or a structured handover to your own team.
From customer-facing platforms to the internal tools that run your operations — including AI where it genuinely earns its place.
Multi-tenant products with billing, roles and the admin tooling you need to run them.
Self-service portals and web applications that take load off your operations team.
Cross-platform and native iOS and Android apps, sharing an API with your web product.
Practical AI — document processing, assistants grounded in your own data, and workflow automation — with evaluation and guardrails.
APIs, integrations with the systems you already run, and reporting you can trust.
Replace the spreadsheets and manual steps holding your team back with software built for the job.
Every engagement has a defined output and a clear exit point. Most clients start with discovery; some join us mid-flight or after launch.
Start here if the idea is still forming. You leave with a costed plan you could take to any supplier.
A senior cross-functional team that takes the product from plan to production. Stop at any milestone.
Senior specialists embedded in your squads, working in your tooling and ceremonies.
Keep a live product healthy, secure and improving after launch — whoever built it.
We work the way a good in-house team works — close to the problem, honest about trade-offs, and accountable for what happens after launch.
No layers of juniors billed at senior rates. The people in your kick-off are the people writing your code.
A costed plan before we start, and a written change process if the scope moves. No open-ended invoices.
GDPR-aware data handling, dependency scanning and secrets management built into the pipeline, not bolted on later.
Source code, infrastructure and documentation are yours from day one, in your repositories and your cloud accounts.
No house framework we push on every client. These are the platforms we know deeply enough to support in production.
“PlanWise spent three weeks on discovery before quoting, and that changed the whole project. We dropped two features we would have wasted a quarter building and launched earlier than the original plan.”
“Our releases used to take a full weekend and a rollback plan nobody trusted. Six weeks after they rebuilt the pipeline we were deploying twice a week during office hours.”
“What stood out was that we owned everything from the start — our repositories, our cloud account, documentation written as they went. Handover was genuinely uneventful.”
A 30-minute call, no charge and no sales script. You describe the problem, we tell you honestly whether we are the right people for it.
