What we build

Less busywork.
More business.

You know what’s slowing you down. We turn that problem into a tool your team can actually use. These are examples of what we can build—not a list of ready-made products.

Don’t see what you need? That’s exactly why we build custom solutions. Tell us what’s slowing you down.

AI is one tool in the toolbox. We use it when it helps solve the problem—not because every business needs it.

AI agents, explained simply

Your own
AI employee.

Think of an AI agent as an extra pair of hands for your business. We set it up to help with the everyday jobs that eat up your time—so you can focus on your customers and your work.

What could you take off your to-do list?

You’re still the boss. You decide what it handles and what needs your say-so.

Work we’ve done

Different businesses.
Purpose-built solutions.

Custom work starts with a specific need. Here are two examples of what that can look like.

StockValor Inventory Management, by Iron Valor Automation

Custom inventory software

StockValor

An inventory app built around the business.

We approached a plumbing business about FieldWork. The conversation uncovered a different need: a better way to organize inventory.

So we built a custom web app around that need. Understand the work, then build the right tool for it.

Business custom software

Two ways to pay.
One app built for you.

For a business build, start with one problem worth solving. The build price depends on the work you need, and the ongoing operations fee is shown separately.

Pay for the build upfront

Build, then operate.

$1,000starting build cost

Plus $250/month for operations after launch.

  • Agree on the deliverables and build price before work starts.
  • Pay the build cost upfront.
  • Start with the lower monthly operations bill after launch.

Good fit: You have the build budget available now.

Discuss an upfront build

Spread the build cost

Start smaller. Pay over time.

$333.33about this much per month for 12 months on a $1,000 build

Then the bill drops to the $250/month operations fee.

$1,000 starter build example
about $83.33/month
Operations after launch
$250/month
  • Start without paying the full build cost at once.
  • Build installments and operations appear separately in your quote.
  • No added installment surcharge in this example.
Discuss monthly payments
What does the starter example cost?

$1,000 build + 12 × $250 operations = $4,000 for the build and first 12 operating months, either way.

The 12-month example assumes operations and installments start together after launch. Eleven $333.33 payments and a final $333.37 payment equal $4,000 exactly. Dates, taxes and third-party costs are set out in the quote. Larger builds have higher build installments.

Why would a build cost more?

A $1,000 project solves one focused problem. Extra workflows, user permissions, connections to other software, existing-data imports, approvals and reporting add design, build and testing work. We quote the scope before starting.

Already-built products have their own plans.

These prices are for creating your own custom app. FieldWork and LocateHQ keep their separate product pricing.

Personal app pricing

Your own idea, built for one agreed price.

There is no monthly Iron Valor fee for a personal app. Changes and upgrades are quoted separately when you ask for them. If hosting or outside services cost extra, we explain that before you approve the build.

Why Iron Valor

in mind.

From a single inventory tool to a connected operational workflow, the goal is the same: practical software, clear decisions, and a manageable scope.
