A small business was never meant to hire four vendors — someone to build the site, someone for email, someone for the app, someone else when it breaks. Horde-M is one growing collection of tools and hands you pull from instead.
Not out of software — out of the people. A shop owner in Festac needs a booking site, the system that runs behind it, an email address that is not a free one, and someone who answers when something breaks at 9pm. Four problems, four quotes, four people who each know one piece and none of whom talk to each other. A horde solves it the other way round: one set of tools, already built, already working together, that you pull from as you need them.
Three things you can pull down. Take one, or take all three and stop co-ordinating between vendors who have never met.
The thing itself, built and shipped.
Storefronts, booking sites, internal systems, operations tooling, mobile apps. Scoped against what the business actually does rather than a feature list, and handed over running — not as a repository you now have to find someone to maintain.
you@yourbusiness, not yourbusiness1234@gmail.
Custom-domain email set up on your own name and sold with the domain, mailboxes and routing configured. It is the cheapest credibility a small business can buy, and the one most of them are missing when they first quote a customer.
Hands on your codebase, by the sprint or the month.
For teams that already have software and need capacity rather than a vendor. We work inside your repository, your conventions and your review process, and leave the codebase in a state your own people can carry.
Everything currently in the horde. Each piece is live work for a real business — two of them run the same hotel group from opposite ends.
Hospitality site & stay-request flow · Divic Exclusive Hotels — Festac, Lagos
Two properties under one name, one site, and enquiries that file themselves into the hotel's own system.
Multi-property operations system · Divic Exclusive Hotels — Festac, Lagos
Front desk, housekeeping, billing and point of sale for two properties, in one system with one truth.
Storefront & self-serve admin · Lamadew Cosmetics
A skincare line that was selling through DMs, given a real catalogue, a real cart, and an admin the owner runs alone.
Local-first, multi-tenant accounting · Horde-M — our own product
Double-entry books that keep themselves, for Nigerian businesses who were keeping them in a notebook.
A content management system is in build — the next piece into the rack, so the businesses we build sites for can run their own words and images without coming back to us for every change. More on it when it is ready to be used rather than announced.
Tell us what the business does and what is currently breaking or missing. You will get a straight answer on whether we are the right people, what it would take, and roughly what it costs — not a discovery call.
