What We Build
Every Technophobia product is built in-house, runs in production for paying clients today, and is priced openly. Pick the closest fit below — every card is a real working product, not a pitch deck.
Booking Systems
Productised WordPress booking plugins for appointments, holiday lets, motorhomes, food ordering, village halls and outdoor pursuits. Real Stripe and GoCardless payments, deposits, calendar sync.
WordPress Plugin Development
Custom WordPress plugins built from scratch. Holiday Home Booking, TP Event Management, LMS, Chat Bot — all distributed and supported as commercial products.
AI Phone Receptionists
Vapi-powered AI receptionists that answer real inbound UK calls 24/7. Take messages, book appointments, route urgent callers — already running for SCSE and as personal PAs.
Business Automation
n8n workflows and NocoDB databases that replace manual admin — call logging, CRM sync, document intake, recurring tasks. Built bespoke to your process.
Tailored Business Systems
Software for businesses that don't fit any SaaS. Built end-to-end against your real workflow, hosted on your VPS, owned outright.
WordPress Websites & SEO
Bespoke WordPress sites on our own PageForge builder. SEO from a team with 20 years of search experience. From £2,500 Silver to £7,500 Platinum.
Booking Systems
Seven WordPress booking plugins covering appointments, holiday lets, motorhomes, food ordering, village halls, outdoor pursuits and learning. Each one is live, paid-for software — not a demo. Stripe and GoCardless built in, deposit and balance handling, iCal sync, customer portals, refundable damage deposits, multi-property where relevant.
Appointment Booking, Holiday Home Booking, Motorhome Booking, TP Food, Village Hall Booking, TP Outdoor Pursuit Booking and our LMS — all priced openly, all supported long-term.
WordPress Plugin Development
We build commercial-grade WordPress plugins from scratch. Holiday Home Booking is distributed via Freemius with free and premium tiers; TP Chat Bot is multi-tenant SaaS; TP Event Management runs live for Lakeland Life; our LMS powers cslearner.org.uk. Every plugin is built around a real business process, packaged properly, kept updated and supported.
If your business has a workflow no off-the-shelf plugin handles, this is where we start.
AI Phone Receptionists
Our AI receptionists are built on Vapi with a custom carrier-redirect bridge architecture, n8n call logging into NocoDB and a multi-user dashboard. Michelle answers our own +44 1229 774591 SCSE office line. Miss Moneypenny is the personal PA on +44 1229 444 271. Both take messages, route callers intelligently, book appointments and write every call into the CRM.
We deploy the same stack for clients on their own UK Twilio numbers — typically £35/mo software fee plus Vapi/Twilio usage, with a one-off setup from £750.
Business Automation
We build automation that quietly handles the repetitive parts of a business — call logging, CRM updates, lead routing, document intake, follow-up emails, recurring report generation. n8n workflows on your own VPS, NocoDB or Google Sheets as the data layer, integrated with the tools you already use.
Typical jobs: pull every inbound enquiry into a single CRM; auto-route urgent callers; sync booking data to accounting software; turn email PDFs into structured records.
Tailored Business Systems
If your operation is unusual enough that no SaaS quite works, we build the system that does. Recent examples include a CIC training & learner management platform, a holiday let event management plugin with supplier portals, a staff CRM with calling integration, and a stock and pricing matrix system for trade clients.
Hosted on your own Hostinger or 20i VPS, code owned by you, supported on a Standard £150/mo or Priority £350/mo retainer or ad-hoc at £75+VAT per hour.
