About Simple Dev

We fix the parts of a business that eat the day.

Simple Dev is a Brisbane studio that builds websites, apps and the systems behind them, then stays on to look after them. We work with businesses that have outgrown the way they run.

Who we are

One studio, from the first call to the fixes after launch.

A lot of our projects start with a complaint rather than a brief. Enquiries arrive in too many places and nobody owns them. Bookings get sorted by text. The website says less about the business than the owner would on the phone.

We design the screens, write the code, put it live and keep looking after it. While we work, you see every screen in your own client portal and approve it before we build. And you can open the work we have shipped for other businesses today, because all of it is live.

The problems we fix

Where the hours go, and what we built instead.

Each of these started as a real problem inside a real business. What changed is taken from the project itself, and you can open every site from its card.

01

Enquiries lose their thread between tools.

What we built

One platform for a car finance broker. A deal moves from the website quote to settlement inside it, with the staff pipeline and the customer portal in the same system.

What changed

An enquiry now arrives with an account created and a broker assigned, and customers send documents through the portal instead of an email thread.

02

Every booking gets arranged by text message.

What we built

Online booking for a boxing coach. The page shows real availability, session packs are paid up front, and credits land in the client's account when the payment clears.

What changed

Clients now book and pay without sending a message, and the diary fills without the coach touching it.

03

The business has no website it controls.

What we built

A site for a Scarborough barbershop covering all 19 services and 11 products, plus an admin behind every page so the staff make their own changes.

What changed

Live at eternalmen.com.au. Enquiries land in the staff inbox and email the team as they arrive.

04

Staff juggle a separate tool for every job.

What we built

A single platform for hospitality venues. Reservations, rotas, costing, compliance and staffing sit under one login on a flat monthly fee.

05

The same questions get answered one DM at a time.

What we built

A site for an online fitness coach that explains the coaching and who it suits, then points everyone at one application for a free consultation.

06

A dated design sits on top of copy that is approved and ranking.

What we built

A new design for a car loan lender laid over the original copy, with an eligibility and loan sizing check added to the landing page.

What changed

Shipped with every word of live copy intact, held in place by a build gate that asserts all 437 original strings still appear in the output.

How a project runs

Five stages. You see every screen before we build it.

  1. 01

    Discover

    We start with how the business runs today and which job eats the most hours. That decides what the first version has to do.

  2. 02

    Design

    Each page and screen goes into your client portal on desktop and phone. You pin comments where you want changes, then approve it.

  3. 03

    Build

    We build to the screens you approved. Progress shows up in the portal as recorded walkthroughs you can comment on at the exact moment.

  4. 04

    Launch

    We put it live and check it on desktop and phone against what you signed off.

  5. 05

    Support

    After launch we keep looking after it. Ongoing changes can run on a monthly retainer.

The client portal

Feedback goes on the screen, not in an email chain.

Every client signs in to their own portal on simpledev.au. It is where the work lives while we build it, and it stays open after launch.

  • Pin a comment to the exact spot you want changed. Our reply stays in that thread.
  • Put a new version beside the last one and see what moved.
  • Approve a screen, or ask for changes, with one button.
  • When we need a login or a decision from you, it arrives as a request you answer in the portal.
  • Files and invoices for the project are kept together, and you can invite your own staff.

What you can expect

The terms, in plain words.

A fixed price for project work

Project work is quoted on a fixed scope at a fixed price, agreed before we start.

You see it before we build it

Screens come to you in the portal for comments and approval first. Nothing is built from a guess.

We stay after launch

Regular updates and support can continue on a monthly retainer once the project is live.
