Portals & Applications.

I build client portals, internal tools and booking flows that don’t feel like off-the-shelf software – because I design them before I develop them.

What it’s about

Most software looks as if nobody designed it.

It’s the application people spend the most time in – and usually the ugliest. Because it was thought through functionally and never designed.

Yet a portal isn’t a sideshow for your brand. Anyone who logs in every day experiences your company just as they do on your website. Only for longer.

That’s why I build these applications like a brand project: first understand what people really do in them. Then design. Then build.

What I build

Four things that keep coming up.

Client portals

A dedicated area for your clients: login, appointments, documents, status. Everything in one place instead of scattered across emails.

Internal tools

What your team needs every day and has so far done in spreadsheets. Tailored to your workflow, not to that of off-the-shelf software.

Booking & Appointments

Booking flows people actually complete – on a phone too, without explanation.

Documents & Data

Files, forms and records in one place, with clear permissions and no searching.

Process

From conversation to a running application.

Understand

We go through what happens today – who does what, where it gets stuck, what could actually go. Often it turns out that some features aren’t needed at all.

Design

I design the interface before it’s built. If helpful, I’ll show you a clickable prototype first.

Build

Built in Next.js and Supabase. You get interim versions you can try out, not just status reports.

Support

After launch, someone stays around. Adjustments, new requirements, operations – as ongoing support if you like.

Right for you?

Honestly: not always.

Good signs

✓Your clients should be able to view or do something themselves.
✓It should fit your brand, not look like off-the-shelf software.
✓You want one person for design and technology, not two.
✓You know who will use the application every day.

Probably not

×There’s a ready-made industry solution that does exactly this.
×You need something by next week, although workflows and goals are still open.
×It’s still unclear who decides on content and workflows.
×Your budget is fixed before it’s clear what you need it for.
×An AI-generated draft should be built as is – without a concept for workflows and permissions.

Example

A staff portal for a recruitment agency.

For SangCare I built the brand, website and a dedicated portal – including a photo shoot. How it came about and the decisions behind it are in the case study (in German).
