What you need
A marketplace: two sides, one platform, your commission.
Buyers and sellers, listings and payments, trust and disputes. Marketplaces are hard; we build the version that proves the model before you spend a fortune.
The first problem
Chicken and egg
A launch plan that seeds one side properly before opening the other.
The second
Payments and payouts
Stripe Connect for split payments, commissions and seller payouts.
The third
Trust
Verification, reviews, messaging and dispute handling.
What we’d build
A system the business runs on, from about £9,750 + VAT
Fixed price agreed after one conversation. A care plan afterwards is about £113 a month + VAT — hosting, fixes, updates — and you can stop it whenever you like. You own everything: domain, code, content.
- Listings and search
- Split payments and payouts
- Messaging
- Reviews and verification
- Admin moderation
Straight answers
Service marketplace or product?
Both — the plumbing differs and we scope to which.
How long?
A first version in two to three months, typically.
Your situation, in three taps
What would we actually build for you?
Do you have a website now?
Do customers need to book or buy from you?
Is there admin you’d pay to make disappear?
Proof, not promises
Things we’ve built that a marketplace would recognise
- Lead Capture AI — an AI lead engine serving eleven industries
- Motivaite — a consumer app on iOS, Android and web
- Sameside — a private AI coaching platform where nobody sees anyone else’s answers
- Teach me AI — an AI learning platform that dates and re-checks every fact it teaches
- The Job Planner — job management for trades where the AI does the admin
- Set Trader — a marketplace where payments are held until the buyer has checked what they bought
