Built, not bought

Custom CRM development that fits how you sell

We build a CRM around your pipeline, your team and your customers, connected to WhatsApp, your website and your phone line. No more forcing your business into someone else's software.

Ask Kaede a question

Every lead in one place. Bye bye, sticky notes!

Your sales process lives everywhere. And nowhere.

Leads arrive by WhatsApp, web forms, phone calls and email, and each one ends up somewhere different: a spreadsheet, a notebook, a salesperson's phone. Off the shelf CRMs promise to fix it, but you pay for features you never use and still build workarounds for the ones you need. Meanwhile follow-ups slip and nobody can say which deals are really moving.

Leads forgotten because nobody owned the follow-up

A generic CRM the team quietly stopped using

No quick answer to 'how are sales looking this month?'

A custom CRM built around your business, not the other way round

We start from how you actually sell: the stages a deal goes through, the details you need about each customer and who does what. Then we build a CRM with exactly those stages, fields, permissions and dashboards, and connect it to WhatsApp, your website forms, your phone system and your sales team. Automations take care of reminders and routine updates, so people can focus on conversations. And the data stays yours.

Custom CRM

What you get

Your pipeline, your stages

Deal stages that match your real sales process, whether that is enquiry, viewing, offer and signing, or consultation, treatment plan and follow-up.

Fields that fit your customers

Track what matters in your industry: property preferences, treatment history, project scope, renewal dates. Nothing extra, nothing missing.

Permissions for every role

Salespeople see their own leads, managers see the whole team and finance sees what it needs. Sensitive data stays with the people who should have it.

Dashboards that answer real questions

Leads by source, deals by stage, team activity and expected revenue on one screen, built around the numbers you actually check.

WhatsApp built in

Two way WhatsApp conversations inside every customer record, with bot chats, templates and team replies in one timeline.

Every lead source in one place

Website forms, landing pages, ads, phone calls, WhatsApp and email all create or update the same record, with the source tagged automatically.

Automations and reminders

New leads assigned automatically, follow-up reminders, messages triggered by stage changes and alerts when a hot lead hasn't been contacted yet.

You own your data

Your customer data belongs to your business. Export it whenever you like, connect it to other tools and decide exactly who can access it.

How it works

From the first call to up and running

Four panels, like a yonkoma comic: setup, build, twist and payoff.

  1. 01

    Map how you sell

    We sit down with you and your team, look at your spreadsheets and current tools, and map every step from first contact to paid invoice.

  2. 02

    Design the system

    We define stages, fields, roles, automations and dashboards, and show you the main screens before any building starts.

  3. 03

    Build, connect and migrate

    We build the CRM, connect WhatsApp, forms, phone and your other tools, and carefully move your existing contacts and deals across.

  4. 04

    Train, launch and grow

    We train your team, go live and keep improving the system as your business changes and the team asks for more.

Examples

What it looks like for businesses like yours

Real estate agencies

An agency in Barcelona tracks buyers, sellers and properties in one system, with each buyer's budget, preferred areas and viewing history. When a new listing comes in, the CRM shows which buyers match and reminds the agent to call them.

Aesthetic clinics and salons

A clinic in Sydney keeps each client's treatment history, consent forms and packages in a single record. When it is time for the next session, the CRM sends a WhatsApp message with a link to book.

Marketing and creative agencies

An agency in Amsterdam follows every proposal from the first call to a signed retainer, and sees at a glance which clients are due for renewal. Account managers get a reminder before a contract ends, not after.

Renovation and trades

A renovation company in Manchester logs every enquiry, site visit, quote and job in one pipeline. The office sees which quotes are still waiting for an answer, and the CRM follows up with the customer on WhatsApp after a few days.

Wholesale and B2B e-commerce

A wholesale supplier in Singapore manages trade accounts, price lists and repeat orders next to its online store. Sales reps see what each account usually buys and get an alert when a regular order is late.

Why Kaede

CRM and WhatsApp from one team

We build both of our flagship products, so your CRM and your WhatsApp bot are designed together and share one view of every customer.

Made for how you work

We don't sell you a license and disappear. We design the system around your process, your language and your team, and change it as you grow.

One team, four cities

With people in Tel Aviv, Lisbon, Bangkok and Tokyo, we work across time zones, and our outsourced sales center can work your leads straight from the CRM if you need extra hands.

What custom CRM development means

A CRM (customer relationship management system) is where a business keeps track of everyone it sells to: who they are, what they asked for, what was promised and what happens next. Custom CRM development means building that system for one specific business, instead of renting a general product and reshaping your work to fit it.

It doesn't have to be a huge project. For most small and medium businesses, a bespoke CRM is a focused tool: the pipeline you already use, the fields you already track in spreadsheets and the automations you wish someone would just do for you.

Custom CRM or off the shelf?

When an off the shelf CRM is enough

If your sales process is simple and fairly standard, a popular CRM with a few settings changed may be all you need. There are good products out there, and we are happy to say so when that is the right call.

When custom makes more sense

  • Your process has steps that generic tools don't support, so the team keeps a spreadsheet on the side.
  • You pay for many seats or add-ons but use only a small part of the product.
  • You need WhatsApp, your website and your internal systems connected properly, not through fragile workarounds.
  • Different roles need very different views and permissions.
  • You want to own the system and the data, instead of depending on a vendor's price list and roadmap.

What goes into a good CRM

A pipeline that mirrors reality

Each stage should mean something concrete, such as 'viewing booked' or 'quote sent', so anyone can open the pipeline and understand where every deal stands without asking.

Only the fields you use

Every unnecessary field is another reason for the team to skip the CRM. We design records around the information you actually use to sell and to serve customers.

Automation for the boring parts

Assigning new leads, reminding someone to follow up, moving a deal forward when a payment arrives, sending a WhatsApp template when an appointment is booked. These small steps are where deals usually get lost, and they are easy to automate.

Dashboards for decisions

A good dashboard answers practical questions: which lead source brings real customers, where deals get stuck and who on the team needs support. We build dashboards around the decisions you make every week, not around vanity charts.

The WhatsApp connection

For many businesses WhatsApp has become a main sales channel, which is exactly why a CRM without it is only half a CRM. We connect your system to the official WhatsApp Business Platform, so conversations, bot chats and approved templates appear inside each customer record. When our WhatsApp bot qualifies a lead, the CRM already knows who it is, what they want and who should call them.

Making sure the team actually uses it

The best CRM is the one people open every morning. That is why we involve the team early, keep screens simple, make sure it works well on phones and train everyone before launch. After launch we listen to feedback and adjust, because a CRM that never changes slowly stops fitting the business it was built for.

Moving from spreadsheets without the pain

Switching systems is often what stops businesses from upgrading. We plan the move with you: what data comes across, how it is cleaned, which old habits stay and which go. Your team gets a short, practical training, and the old spreadsheets can stay available for reference until everyone is confident.

The center of the whole journey

Your CRM sits at the heart of the path from the first click to the closed deal. Leads come in from your website, your online store and your social campaigns. WhatsApp bots and AI help qualify and serve them. If you want more capacity, our outsourced sales center can work the pipeline across time zones from Tel Aviv, Lisbon, Bangkok and Tokyo. And everything reports back to one place that you own.

Frequently asked questions

Why build a custom CRM instead of using HubSpot, Salesforce or Pipedrive?

Off the shelf CRMs suit many businesses, and if one fits yours, we will tell you. A custom CRM makes sense when your process doesn't match their templates, when you pay for seats and features you never use, or when you need deep connections to WhatsApp and your own systems. You get software that fits your business instead of a business that bends to its software.

Can we hire you for just a custom CRM, without other services?

Yes, always. You can take just a custom CRM and nothing else. If you want to connect more pieces later, everything is built to plug in easily. The simplest way to start is a short consultation call on WhatsApp: tell us what your business needs and we will tell you honestly what is worth doing and what is not.

Book a consultation on WhatsApp
Is a custom CRM only for large companies?

Not at all. A CRM for small business can be simple and focused, replacing a pile of spreadsheets and apps with one place the whole team trusts. We often start with a lean first version that covers your core pipeline, then add more as you grow.

Can you move our data from spreadsheets or another CRM?

Yes. We import contacts, companies, deals and history from spreadsheets or from your current CRM, clean up duplicates where we can and map everything to the new structure. You review the migrated data before the switch, so you know everything important came across.

Does the CRM connect to WhatsApp?

Yes, and it is one of the things we know best. WhatsApp conversations, bot chats and templates live inside each customer record, and your team can reply from the CRM. Leads who start on WhatsApp are created automatically, with their source attached.

Who owns the system and the data?

Your customer data belongs to your business, and you can export it whenever you want. Hosting, access and ownership of the system itself are set out clearly in our proposal before any work starts, so you know exactly what you are getting.

Can our team use it on their phones?

Yes. We design the CRM to work in the browser on desktop and mobile, so salespeople in the field can update deals, log calls and reply to customers on the go.

Can we add features later?

Yes, a custom CRM grows with you. New stages, fields, reports, automations or integrations can be added whenever your process changes, without moving everyone to a new system.

How long does custom CRM development take?

It depends on the number of processes, the integrations and the data you bring with you. We usually recommend a focused first version, getting the team comfortable with it, and expanding from there. You get a clear scope and timeline in the proposal before we begin.

Is our data secure?

We plan security from the first day: role based permissions, secure sign in, encrypted connections and backups. We also decide together who can view and export sensitive information, which matters a lot for clinics, finance and legal businesses.
