About

Operator · Mateus Almeida Mereu

Most companies already have their information, in spreadsheets, inboxes, chats and people's heads. What is missing is the system that connects it. Generic software asks the company to change; we build the software around the company. We are based in Milan and work in English, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. One point of contact from the first message to the monthly review.

Four principles

Principles

  1. Understand first We map how the company works before we design anything. Most of it can happen in writing.
  2. Built around you Your words, your steps, your rules. The software adapts; the company does not.
  3. Your data is yours Exportable at any time, as plain files. No artificial lock-in.
  4. Measure, never invent No made-up numbers, no guaranteed results. Reports come from records.

Craft

Built by hand on a tested core, reviewed on real screens with real data. Nothing templated, nothing decorative.

  1. Operations systems for the way the company runs

  2. Internal tools that replace the spreadsheet everyone depends on

  3. Client portals for projects, documents and next steps

  4. Reports and automations on your rules

Technology

Boring where it should be boring, precise where it matters.

  1. Two-step sign-in, roles and an audit log in every system

  2. Hosted in the EU, daily backups, restores tested

  3. Imports from spreadsheets, exports as plain CSV

  4. Automations on your rules, AI only where it helps
