What we build

Six types of apps.
One team. Fixed price.

From a single estimator widget to a full multi-tenant platform — every project is scoped, priced, and delivered for Southwest Florida businesses.

Estimator & Quoting Tools

Quote jobs in the field from a tablet or phone — materials, labor, margin — in under five minutes. Approved quotes auto-create jobs in your system and fire follow-up sequences in Zoho CRM.

Client Portals

Give customers a real-time view of their job status, photos, documents, and invoices — without a single phone call. Customers stop calling "where's my crew" when they can see it themselves.

Job & Field Management

Dispatch crews, track job stages, capture site photos, and collect signatures from the field — all in one screen your office and techs actually use. No more GroupMe threads and missed handoffs.

Dealer & Partner Portals

Let dealers, subs, or franchise partners submit orders, check inventory, and view their own pipeline without emailing you 40 times a week. Built-in permission layers keep each partner in their lane.

CRM & Lead Automation

We extend Zoho CRM with custom modules, Deluge scripts, and workflow rules that match how your business actually sells. Your leads get followed up. Your quoted jobs don't fall through the cracks.

Back-Office Operations

Payroll summaries, job costing, vendor POs, commission tracking — the stuff that lives in four different spreadsheets right now. We consolidate it into a single tool your team updates in real time.

Why custom beats off-the-shelf

Built around your workflow,
not someone else's.

Off-the-shelf tools are built for the average contractor. Custom software is built for you — and it pays for itself within 24 months by eliminating per-seat fees alone.

  • You own the code and data — forever

    Every line of code and every record in your database belongs to you from day one, not locked behind a vendor's servers.

  • Fixed price — scoped before a single line is written

    You approve the full scope and price before the build starts, so the invoice at the end matches the quote.

  • Built around your workflow, not a template

    Off-the-shelf tools make you adapt to their process; we map your existing workflow and build the software around it.

  • Zoho-native by default

    Every custom app we build plugs directly into your existing Zoho CRM pipeline, reports, and automations — no middleware required.

We've already shipped two vertical platforms. Yours is next.

ShedOS is a full CRM built specifically for shed dealers and manufacturers — the founding tenant is Amazon Sheds & Gazebos right here in Fort Myers. Kumber is a restaurant back-office OS, proof-of-concept'd with Micasa Restaurante. Both are real, running apps — not case studies, not prototypes. That's the team building your software.

Our process

Scoped. Built. Launched in weeks.

Discovery & Scoping

We spend 1–2 weeks mapping your actual workflow — who touches what, where jobs get dropped, what lives in spreadsheets. The output is a fixed scope document with deliverables, timeline, and price. No surprises after you sign.

Design & Wireframe

Before writing a line of code, you see clickable wireframes of every screen your team will use. We walk through it together, you give feedback, and we lock the UX before the build begins. This is where we catch "oh wait, we need..." — not at launch.

Build & Integrate

We build in two-week sprints and send you working previews at the end of each sprint — so you're never waiting weeks to see progress. Zoho integrations are wired in mid-build, not bolted on at the end, so the data flow is tested throughout.

Launch & Support

We deploy to your domain, train your team with recorded walkthroughs, and hand over documentation written for non-technical owners. Your 30- or 60-day support window starts at launch — bugs get fixed and small workflow adjustments get handled before we close the project.

FAQ

Common questions,
answered straight.

How much does custom app development cost for a small business?

Custom apps for small businesses typically run $4,500 to $28,000 for a fixed-scope project — Micro-Apps (single-purpose tools like estimators or trackers) start at $4,500, while full Business Apps with multiple modules run $12,000–$28,000. Vertical platforms are scoped individually. Every project at Neuron Media is priced flat — you know the number before the build starts.

How long does it take to build a custom business app?

Most custom apps we build for Fort Myers contractors and small businesses are delivered in 4 to 16 weeks from signed scope to launch. Micro-Apps land on the lower end; multi-module Business Apps with Zoho integration typically take 8–12 weeks. We send working previews every two weeks so you're never in the dark.

Do I own the code and data after the project?

Yes — 100%, with no strings attached. At project close, we transfer the full source code and database to you. There are no per-seat fees, no ongoing platform fees owed to us, and no data held hostage if you ever want to move it. This is a core reason contractors choose custom development over SaaS subscriptions.

Can you integrate with Zoho CRM?

Zoho CRM integration is our default, not an add-on. Fabian Castillo has been building in the Zoho ecosystem — CRM, Deluge scripting, Zoho One — since 2021. Every custom app we build can read from and write to your existing Zoho CRM, triggering automations, updating deal stages, and logging field activity without manual entry.

How is a custom app different from buying ServiceTitan or Jobber?

ServiceTitan and Jobber are built for the average contractor — which means they fit no contractor perfectly. You pay $200–$600/month per seat to work around a workflow designed for someone else. A custom app is mapped to your exact process, costs a flat fee once, and you own it outright. Over 24 months, most businesses recoup the build cost from eliminated SaaS fees alone.

Can you replace spreadsheets with a custom business app?

That's one of the most common builds we do. If your business runs on a spreadsheet for quoting, a different one for job tracking, and a group chat for crew scheduling — we can consolidate all three into a single app your whole team works in. We've done this for Fort Myers contractors who were one key employee's sick day away from complete operational chaos.

What industries do you build custom apps for?

Our primary verticals are HVAC, roofing, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, pool service, shed/outdoor structure companies, and independent restaurants. ShedOS is a live vertical CRM serving the shed industry (founding tenant: Amazon Sheds & Gazebos, Fort Myers). Kumber is a restaurant back-office OS built for independent operators. If your business runs on jobs, quotes, and crews — we've probably already solved a version of your problem.

What happens after the app launches — do you provide support?

Every project includes a 30-day support window (Micro-App) or 60-day window (Business App) after launch. During that period, bugs are fixed at no additional cost and small workflow adjustments are handled as part of the project. After the support window, we offer ongoing maintenance retainers for businesses that want a dedicated team for new features, updates, and monitoring.

Can you build a client portal for my contracting business?

Yes — client portals are one of our most requested builds. A client portal lets your customers log in and see real-time job status, crew photos, signed documents, and invoices without calling your office. We build them into your existing domain, connect them to your Zoho CRM, and brand them to match your business. Most contractors who deploy a client portal cut inbound "where's my crew" calls by over half within the first month.

Do I need a new website to use a custom app?

No. Custom apps can be deployed as a standalone tool on a subdomain (like app.yourcompany.com) or embedded into an existing website. If your site needs an upgrade, Neuron Media handles web design as well — but it's a separate project, never a requirement. We've launched apps for clients whose existing websites stayed exactly as they were.

Your business deserves software built for it.

We scope, price, and deliver in writing before a single line of code is written. Book a free 30-minute call and leave with a clear picture of what your app would cost and how long it would take.
