What we build.

What people say.

  • “Studio Parallel helped us bring everything into one place. Enrolments, payments, and class management are now easier to run, and our team has more time for families.”

    RacheleCaribeaeManager
  • “MedVault is a great app that makes going to appointments and making sense of reports super easy. My personal favourite feature is the ‘prepare for appointment’ option which makes sure you don’t get those “Oh I forgot to mention xxx at the doctor”.”

  • “Flow Channels has been game-changing for our business. We have saved so much time communicating with our client base due to the easy integration of our media channels into the all-in-one inbox. Automating the appointment reminders into the same system cuts our administration time considerably, as well.”

  • “I’m really impressed with MedVault. It was so easy to set up, and the app is very straightforward to use. The layout is clean, simple, and easy to navigate. It’s a great way to keep all my medical information organised in one secure place, so I always have it available when I need it.”

Common questions.

What kinds of projects do you build?

Websites, web apps, mobile apps, and AI and automation. That covers business websites and ecommerce, client portals and internal tools, iOS and Android apps, and workflows that connect the tools you already use. We also build and run our own product, Flow Channels.

How much does a project cost?

It depends on scope. As a rough guide in AUD, websites start from $4,000 for a business website, web apps from $9,000, mobile apps from $20,000, and AI and automation from $5,000. Tell us what you need and we will send a free, fixed quote before any work starts.

What does the process look like, from idea to launch?

It starts with a conversation with Joe and Hayden about the problem and what to build first. We agree on scope and a fixed quote, then design and build together: you review working software as it takes shape and your feedback steers what comes next. After testing and handover, you launch, with optional monthly support if you want us to keep improving it. Timelines depend on scope, so we’ll map yours out when we talk.
