Sound familiar?

Every operating business has one step where the work piles up. It's usually held together by one person, a spreadsheet, and memory.

"Quoting takes us three days. The job goes to whoever answers first."

Machine shop

"We miss calls because we're on ladders. Missed calls are missed jobs."

Roofing company

"My office manager loses every Friday reconciling delivery-app payouts."

Restaurant

"Patient intake is four pieces of paper and the same info typed in twice."

Clinic

None of these need another software subscription. They need one system built around how you already work — and someone accountable for keeping it running.

How it works

Three steps. Prices on the table before we start — hourly billing rewards slowness, so we don't do it.

Step 1 · Half a day

The Audit

$750 — credited toward your build

We spend half a day inside your operation. You get a one-page map of your three most expensive bottlenecks, priced in your own hours and dollars, plus a fixed quote to fix the worst one. Keep the map either way.

Step 2 · 2–6 weeks

The Build

$3,000 – $15,000 fixed

One bottleneck, one working system. Quoted before we start, demoed on your real work, and nothing goes out the door to a customer without your sign-off. If it isn't earning its keep in month one, we make it right.

Step 3 · Ongoing, cancel anytime

The Watch

from $400 /month

Systems break silently — ours are watched. We monitor everything we build, fix problems before you notice them, and ship a small improvement every month. Cancel anytime and everything keeps running; it's yours.

Why widn

The name is the job: we find the narrowest point in your operation and widen it.

You own everything

The code lives in your repository. The accounts are in your name. There is no lock-in, no proprietary platform, no hostage situation. Fire us anytime — everything keeps working.

Local, if you want it

We build native Windows and Mac software that runs in your building. Your drawings, your patient records, your pricing — none of it has to touch anyone else's cloud. Almost nobody else offers this. We lead with it.

Humans stay in charge

Modern AI makes us fast — it's the power tool, not the craftsman. Anything that reaches your customers (a quote, an invoice, an email) waits for a human yes. Yours or ours, always someone's.

Fixed prices, published

You saw our prices before we ever spoke — they're on this page. Every project is a fixed quote against a fixed scope, so the risk of an estimate being wrong is ours, not yours.

Built for businesses where the work is real

We work with operating companies — where data is messy, the work is physical, and off-the-shelf software never quite fits.
