Custom software
A product or a system for one business. We find the smallest version that changes the week, then we build it and stay with it.
Custom software
Custom software.
Built in South Africa.
Berrybyte is a software studio, not an agency. We build products people can open and systems a business can run on. You bring the problem. We bring the build.
Start a projectWhat we build
Products we own
Shiftd for South African car culture. SquaredUp for landlords with a few doors. We ship them and we keep them alive.
Business systems
Billing, shops, ledgers and the daily tools a team actually opens. Built to replace WhatsApp threads and after-the-fact spreadsheets.
After launch
Most software dies because nobody owns it. The person who writes the code is the person who picks up when it breaks.

Questions
Do you build custom software in South Africa?
Yes. Berrybyte is a software studio based in South Africa. We build products and client systems here, for people and businesses who need software they can actually open.
What kind of software do you make?
Apps, billing, shops and operations tools. Our own products include Shiftd and SquaredUp Landlords. Client work includes ecommerce, flight-school billing and aviation ops.
Are you a software agency?
No. Berrybyte is one person. No account manager, no handover to a junior. The person who answers is the person who writes the code.
Do you build brochure websites?
No. If you need another pretty page, we are the wrong studio. We build software that runs a job.
How do I start a project?
Send a note through the contact form. Say what you want to change and who it is for. You get a reply within two working days.
Got a problem worth building?
A product idea. A business stuck in admin. If we are the wrong studio, we will say so.
