Terminal Labs

Custom software that fits your business, not the other way around.

We are a small senior team that designs, builds and ships software for companies who have outgrown spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools. No handoffs to junior teams, no six-month discovery phases.

Services

Four ways we usually get involved

Product engineering

From a whiteboard sketch to a production release: web apps and platforms built around how your business actually works.

  • Discovery & scoping
  • Design systems
  • Full-stack delivery

Integrations & APIs

We connect the tools you already pay for — ERPs, CRMs, payment providers — so data stops living in spreadsheets.

  • REST & GraphQL APIs
  • Event pipelines
  • Legacy adapters

Cloud & DevOps

Cloud-native by default: containers, managed services, infrastructure as code and CI/CD — sized for your team instead of a hyperscaler's reference architecture.

  • AWS & Terraform
  • Automated pipelines
  • Cost tuning

Modernisation

Incremental rewrites of systems that still make money but slow everyone down. No big-bang migrations.

  • Audit & roadmap
  • Strangler-fig refactors
  • Zero-downtime cutovers

Process

Short feedback loops, no surprises at the end

  1. Scope

    A short paid discovery: we map the workflow, the constraints and the success metric before writing code.

  2. Prototype

    A working slice of the product in two to three weeks, so decisions are made against something real.

  3. Build

    Two-week iterations, a demo at the end of each, and a staging environment you can click through any time.

  4. Hand over

    Documentation, infrastructure as code and a trained team — or a support retainer if you would rather we stay.

Stack

Tools we reach for

  • typescript
  • next.js
  • react
  • node.js
  • python
  • postgresql
  • aws
  • terraform
  • kubernetes
  • graphql

Why us

Cloud-native, with no ceiling on what it can do

We build on modern cloud-native foundations — containers, managed databases, infrastructure as code — so nothing about your product is capped by a theme, a plugin or a plan you have outgrown. If you can describe how your business works, it can be built that way, and it can keep changing after launch.

No platform ceiling
Features are written for your workflow instead of bent around someone else's product. Nothing is impossible because a template does not allow it.
Scales with the business
Containers and managed services that go from a handful of users to thousands without a rewrite, and cost roughly what they use.
You own all of it
Code in your repository, infrastructure as code in your own cloud account, no licence that holds your data hostage.
Built to be handed over
Tests, documentation and pipelines, so the next change does not depend on tracking down whoever made the last one.

Every project starts with the diagnostic

EUR 500 for a written scope: the workflow mapped, the risks named, a timeline and a fixed quote. You can stop there and take the document to anyone — it is yours. If we continue, it comes off the first invoice.

FAQ

What people ask before the first call

How long does it take?
A marketing site is three to five weeks. A custom application reaches a working prototype in two to three weeks and production in two to four months, depending on how much has to integrate with what you already run.
Why not a template for a few hundred euros?
Because the second change is where it costs you. A template is cheap once; when it cannot do the thing your business needs, you pay someone to fight it, then pay again to replace it. We write the thing your business needs.
Who owns the code?
You do, from the first commit. The repository, the cloud account and the domain are in your name, and the handover includes the documentation to run it without us.
Can we edit content ourselves?
Yes. Anything that changes often goes behind an editor your team can use, and you get a walkthrough on handover. Nothing routine should require a developer.
Where is it hosted?
In your own cloud account, in an EU region by default, defined as infrastructure as code so it can be rebuilt from scratch. If you would rather we host and operate it, that is the retainer.
Will it rank on Google?
Everything we ship is technically sound for search: server-rendered, fast, structured and crawlable in both languages. Rankings for competitive terms also take content and time, and we will tell you plainly which of the two you are missing.
Do you work outside Thessaloniki?
Yes. We are based in Thessaloniki, work with clients across Greece and abroad, and are happy to meet in person when it helps.
