WordPress is open source, giving you the flexibility to create your own custom plugins that extend its functionality.
Website plugins allow us to seamlessly integrate new features without the need for custom-coding from scratch.
Whilst there are many reputable plugins that can be used and incorporated on websites, they might lack the desired functionality for your requirements.
We’ve created many types of plugins – from bespoke tools incorporating AI, to membership subscriptions.

How long does it take to build a plugin?
The development timeline for a bespoke plugin depends on the complexity and scope of the required functionality. Simple plugins may take a few weeks, while complex plugins with advanced features and multiple integrations can take several months. During the initial discovery phase, we provide a detailed timeline based on your requirements and any dependencies involved.
What types of platforms do you build?
- Customer Portals: Secure, feature-rich portals for customer engagement and self-service.
- SaaS Platforms: Custom Software-as-a-Service solutions that enable subscription-based models.
- Enterprise Platforms: Internal systems for managing business processes, employee portals, or collaboration tools.
- API Platforms: Platforms that centralize and manage data exchange across systems using APIs.
What industries do you cater to for platform development?
We cater to a variety of industries, including:
- Finance & Banking: Platforms for payment processing, trading, and financial management.
- Healthcare: HIPAA-compliant patient management and telemedicine platforms.
- Retail & eCommerce: Scalable multi-vendor marketplaces and custom retail platforms.
- Manufacturing & Logistics: Platforms for supply chain management, inventory tracking, and process automation.
- Education & eLearning: Custom LMS (Learning Management Systems) for online education and corporate training.
How do you ensure the plugin is secure?
Security is a top priority in our development process. To ensure a secure plugin:
- We follow OWASP security guidelines for safe coding.
- We use parameterized queries and input validation to prevent SQL injection and XSS attacks.
- We implement role-based access controls to restrict sensitive features to authorized users.
- Our team conducts security audits and penetration testing to identify and fix vulnerabilities before deployment.
When should I consider building a bespoke plugin instead of using an existing one?
Consider building a bespoke plugin if:
- You have unique requirements that off-the-shelf plugins can’t meet.
- Existing plugins lack the scalability or flexibility you need for future growth.
- You need full control over functionality, performance, and security.
- Your website or platform requires complex integrations with other tools, APIs, or databases. A bespoke plugin ensures that you get precisely what you need without compromising on features, performance, or design.
What is a bespoke plugin, and how is it different from an off-the-shelf plugin?
A bespoke plugin is a custom-built software solution designed specifically to address the unique needs and functionalities of your website or platform. Unlike off-the-shelf plugins, which are pre-built and cater to general use cases, a bespoke plugin is tailored to your exact requirements. It integrates seamlessly into your existing system, ensuring that it meets your business logic, workflows, and performance standards, without the limitations or excess features often found in generic plugins.
