3D3DStart a build →Software · you own every line
Custom software you own outright.
Business tools, web apps, automations, and full operating platforms — sized from a single workflow to a multi-service system. Source code, database, and deploy keys are yours at delivery.
What we build
Shaped to one operation, not licensed to thousands.
Business tools, estimating systems, dashboards, mobile-ready web apps, and workflow automations — built for how your operation actually runs. Twelve deployed apps and counting, from an operations platform (Hullmark) to an estimating tool built for High End Welding (Ironclad) to a parametric CAD engine (FORMA).
Pricing
Three clear starting points.
All include full ownership at delivery. Pick the tier that matches your scope; anything complex gets a brief before quoting.
- $1,500
Starter Tool
A focused single-workflow app — forms, calculations, reports, or data entry.
- $2,500
Business App
Multi-user, mobile-ready, with auth, a custom dashboard, and integrations.
- $5,000
Full System
A complex platform with multiple services, external APIs, and full admin controls.
Ownership
You own the code outright.
No licences, no royalties, no clause that lets us revoke access. Source code, database schema, environment keys, and deploy access all transfer to you on delivery. Hand it to any developer, run it indefinitely, or bring us back — your call.
FORMA
Our parametric CAD engine — download it.
FORMA is 3D3D's own parametric CAD engine — the same tool we use in-house to rebuild part geometry from a photo and one key measurement. The desktop app is free to download for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

How a project runs
Four steps, fixed price, nothing open-ended.
- 01
Scope it together
We define what it does in plain language — no jargon, no assumptions.
- 02
Fixed-price quote
A line-item breakdown with a delivery date. The price does not move unless scope moves — and scope changes need your written approval.
- 03
Review at each milestone
You review working software as it's built, not a slide deck at the end.
- 04
Get the keys
Source, data, and deploy access transfer to you at delivery. No retainer required.
What we've built
Software we shipped, not slideware.
Every one of these is real software we designed, built, and run — some of it is ours, some of it was built for a customer and belongs to them. The status on each page is honest: live, beta, free, still building.

Straight answers.
What kind of software does 3D3D build?
Business tools, estimating systems, dashboards, mobile-ready web apps, and workflow automations — shaped to one operation rather than licensed to thousands. The shelf includes an operations platform (Hullmark), an estimating tool built for High End Welding (Ironclad), and a parametric CAD engine (FORMA). Twelve deployed apps and counting.
What do the three price tiers include?
Starter Tool ($1,500): a focused single-workflow app — forms, calculations, reports, or data entry. Business App ($2,500): multi-user, mobile-ready, with auth, a custom dashboard, and integrations. Full System ($5,000): complex platform with multiple services, external APIs, and full admin controls. Every tier delivers source code, deploy access, and full ownership at delivery.
Who owns the source code?
You do, completely. Source code, database schema, environment keys, and deploy access all transfer to you on delivery. No licence fees, no royalties, no clause that lets us revoke access. Hand it to any developer, run it indefinitely, or bring us back — your call.
Can you rescue or take over an existing system?
Often yes. Describe what exists and what hurts; we'll tell you honestly whether it's fixable, replaceable, or better left as is. Rescues are scoped and priced the same way as new builds — fixed price, fixed scope, nothing open-ended.
How does a project run from start to delivery?
Four steps: scope it together in plain language, receive a fixed-price quote before work starts, review working software at each milestone, and get the keys at delivery. No open-ended retainers. Price does not move unless scope moves — and scope changes require your written approval.
What is ORA and how does it relate to custom software?
ORA is 3D3D's private governed AI platform: loopback-only, every action audited, no data leaving your machine. It can be built into a custom software project or deployed standalone. Setup from $1,500. See /private-ai for the full details.
