Websites, workflows, apps, and ERPs — built for small businesses through real, in-person conversations. No templates. No guesswork.
Every tool is designed to fit your business — not the other way around.
Fast, modern sites that reflect your brand and turn visitors into customers — built from scratch, not from a theme.
Eliminate the repetitive stuff. We connect your tools and automate the busywork so your team can focus on real work.
Web and mobile applications purpose-built for how your business actually operates day to day.
Inventory, invoicing, scheduling, reporting — one system tailored to your operation, without enterprise pricing.
Software should fit like it was measured for you — because it was. Every project starts and stays face-to-face.
We meet in person — or virtually if you're outside the Dayton/Cincinnati area — to understand your business, your pain points, and how your team actually works.
We map the look, feel, and function together — you guide every decision before a line of code is written.
We build in short cycles, providing local testing copies throughout so you can track progress, try the app hands-on, and confirm everything works the way you expect.
We deliver, train your team hands-on, and stick around to keep everything running smoothly.
“Anything is possible — it just takes time, money, and effort.”
The Ambos motto
Large, off-the-shelf ERPs typically run $1,700+ per user per year, with implementations that can reach six figures — and prices climb every renewal. Most small businesses can't absorb those constant increases. Worse, those systems were never made to fit your business in the first place.
Five-figure implementations before you see value. Per-user fees that punish growth. Annual price hikes you can't negotiate. A generic system your team bends around — not the other way.
A one-time build cost quoted upfront, based on the size and capabilities of your app — nothing more. Then a set monthly service fee that's a fraction of the big providers. You pay your own database charges directly, at cost, so there's no markup hiding in your bill.
Priced by scope and capability. You know the number before we start.
One predictable fee for support and upkeep — no per-user pricing, no surprise increases.
Hosting and database charges billed to you directly at cost. You own your data and your bill.
Ambos Design Works started on the shop floor, not in a boardroom. While working inside a small company, I learned how to modernize its processes firsthand — and discovered I could help other businesses do the same: getting organized, cutting busywork, and boosting productivity with tools built to fit.
We bring an engineer's discipline to every project: measure first, design deliberately, build precisely. And we do it the old-fashioned way — sitting across the table from you, sketching until the solution clicks.
Let's TalkTell us a little about your business and what's slowing you down. We'll set up a time to sit down together — coffee's on us.
