Custom services
Your exact specifications. Our standard.
Custom financial systems built on the same foundation as Aperio's products. Same code quality. Same design standard. Built for your business, owned by you.
The pitch
Why custom Aperio?
Every Aperio product starts from a shared technical foundation — the same ledger model, the same AI layer, the same design system. When we build custom, you get that foundation adapted to your specifications.
You own the code. We support it. The result is enterprise-grade software built in a fraction of the time, at a fraction of the cost, and held to the same Aperio standard as our products.
You get the speed of a small team and the depth of a platform company. Both.

Featured case study
Abby Gold
Precious metals retail
A gold reseller ran daily operations on spreadsheets — weights, prices, balances, dealers — in a market where margin lives or dies on execution speed.
“We replaced three spreadsheets and a WhatsApp group with one system. Then we stopped thinking about operations and started thinking about growth.”
The problem
Every day began with manual weight-price reconciliations across three dealers and five product forms. Errors compounded. Reporting to ownership was a weekly exercise that described last week's business, not today's.
The solution
A custom Aperio Ops deployment: a weight calculator tied to live metal prices, a balance breakdown across dealers, margin-per-transaction logged to the ledger, and a dashboard ownership could read without opening Excel.

“I can see my balance, what customers owe me, what I'm holding for them, and how much I can spend — all in one place. Even tracks my profit per order. I used to do all this in my head. Now I just open Aperio.”

FAQ
Everything else.
Yes. Every business has a financial backbone. We've built for gold resellers, logistics operators, services firms, and D2C brands. If there's a ledger, there's a system we can tailor.
Discovery within 72 hours of inquiry. Proposal within 5 business days. Build start within 2 weeks of sign-off. For urgent engagements we can compress this.
You own every line. We deliver source, documentation, and deployment. Aperio retains rights only to reusable primitives — the same ones that power our products.
Yes, unilateral or mutual. Most discovery calls happen under NDA. We can send ours or sign yours.
Every build includes 30 days of post-launch support. After that, an optional retainer covers new features, integrations, and operational support.
Usually, yes. We integrate with ledgers (QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite), CRMs (HubSpot, Salesforce), and any system with a modern API. We'll confirm feasibility in discovery.
