Own what your business depends on.

NowSquare builds business software you install and keep. For companies that want a product of their own, we branch one of ours and stay on as the team.

Products in operation.

They run in production, apart from ClientStack, which launches this year.

Start from a product that already runs.

Custom software spends its first year becoming usable. We skip that year. Your product starts as a branch of Reward Loyalty, ClientStack, InvoiceScript, VoxelBooking, or VoxelSite: working code, a data model built for real customers, and the people who wrote it.

  1. The base

    Pick the product closest to yours, with its full source.

  2. The branch

    We fork it into your product: your modules, your data, your integrations, your server. It leaves our update path and becomes yours.

  3. The team

    We stay on. Two or more days a week, six months at least, one senior lead who made the decisions and lives with them.

This suits companies with customers or funding in place. If you need one installation, the product's own site and its partners cover that.

How partnership works

You cannot own what you cannot operate.

Every self‑hosted product here is one PHP application and one database. Software that needs a container cluster, a message queue and a platform engineer belongs to whoever runs that infrastructure. You paid for it, and you still cannot move it, read it, or keep it alive alone.

There are millions of PHP developers. Any one of them can open this code and take over. That is what makes the licence worth something.

What you own, over time

  1. Day one

    The installation is yours.

    Any experienced developer can read it, extend it, or take over.

  2. Year one

    It runs on your terms.

    No licence server, no phone-home, no kill switch. You decide when to update and who touches the system.

  3. Year three

    It still runs if we don't.

    Your customers stay in your database, on your infrastructure, with your backups. If NowSquare disappeared tomorrow, nothing stops working.

This applies to the self-hosted products. Stampify runs as a hosted service and its label says so.

The person who architects it, builds it.

AI speeds up the build. Someone who has shipped products since 1999 decides what ships.
