Custom Solutions

Shape

Built From Scratch. Because It Has To Be.

What's included

Some problems don't have an off-the-shelf solution. Automations, data pipelines, IoT systems, livestreaming setups, custom integrations — if it needs to be built from the ground up, this is where that happens.

Every engagement starts with a clear understanding of the problem. No unnecessary complexity, no over-engineering — just the right solution for what actually needs to be done.

Data Collection & Aggregation

Automated scraping and aggregation from multiple sources — real estate listings, car ads, job boards, market data — collected, cleaned, and organized into a single structured database. Includes handling for dynamic pages, bot detection, and scheduled updates.

Scripting & Automation

Custom scripts in PHP or JavaScript for process automation, data sorting, report generation, and scheduled tasks. When a manual process takes too long to do repeatedly, it gets automated.

Livestreaming Pipelines

End-to-end video streaming setups from source to destination. Built a full pipeline from Hikvision IP cameras through Mikrotik routing to live YouTube output. Custom infrastructure, not a SaaS workaround.

IoT & Hardware

Arduino and Raspberry Pi based solutions — remote control systems, sensor integrations, home automation. Built a full IoT system for remote control of a garage door, yard gate, and lighting via internet and a custom web interface.

How a custom project actually works

Every custom engagement is different by definition. But the approach is always the same — understand the problem first, then build the right solution.

01

Discovery & Requirements

What needs to be built, where the data comes from, what the output looks like, and what happens when things go wrong — all defined before anything is written.

02

Architecture & Build

Pipeline design, technology selection, and development. Built to be maintainable, not just functional — because custom solutions tend to stick around.

03

Deployment & Automation

Running, scheduled, and monitored. Whether it's a cron job, a hardware device, or a streaming server — it gets set up properly and left in a working state.

04

Maintenance & Updates

Sources change, APIs break, sites get updated. Ongoing maintenance available to keep everything running when the environment around it shifts.

What's under the hood.
