An independent software studio

The software your business runs on, built for how you actually work.

We design and build custom web and mobile software for small businesses: staff scheduling, client records, time clocks, billing, the portal your team opens every morning. Twenty years of healthcare systems behind it, and our names on every build.

Recent work: a scheduling, timesheet and invoicing portal for a home-care agency, now live on Google Cloud.

The TruLena’s Heart of Home Care portal home screen for an owner: shifts today, open shifts, a time-off request to decide, expenses to review, unpaid invoices, recent notes and recent activity.

What we build

Most small businesses run on a mix of texts, paper and spreadsheets that one person understands. We replace that with one system the whole team can use, and we stay small enough that you talk to the people who built it.

Business portals and internal tools

Scheduling, time clocks, client records, approvals, invoicing. One place for the office and the people in the field, that works on any phone without an app store.

iPhone and Android apps

Native apps from first sketch to the App Store and Google Play, including the reviews, the privacy labels and the store listing. We publish our own, so we know the whole road.

Systems that handle sensitive data

Healthcare and other regulated work: roles and permissions enforced on the server, two-step sign-in, audit trails, encrypted records, backups that have been restored, hosting under a HIPAA agreement.

Recent work

One portal for a home-care agency in Maine: scheduling, timesheets, chart notes and invoices.

TruLena’s Heart of Home Care has two owners, an office admin and a team of caregivers in people’s homes all day. We built them one portal for the whole business, phone-first for the caregivers and complete for the office.

Scheduling and coverage

Repeating shifts, conflict checks, a coverage board that ranks who can fill an open shift.

Clock in, timesheets, payroll

From the caregiver’s phone on server time, with late and missed-visit alerts and a payroll export.

Chart notes and documents

Notes that can never be altered, photos with location data stripped, every view logged.

Expenses and invoices

Receipts and mileage from the phone; visits become invoice lines once and only once.

Our own apps

We also design, build and run two products of our own. They keep us honest about what shipping and supporting software really takes.
