Custom Software Development for businesses in Tampa Bay
We're headquartered in Tampa and have spent the last five-plus years shipping production software for operators, founders, and growth-stage teams — more than twenty products across healthcare, hospitality, e-commerce, fintech, insurance, and local services. Our clients include Tampa businesses like Corner to Corner Cleaning Solutions, as well as companies across Florida and the rest of the US.
A lot of Tampa businesses come to us running on a stack of spreadsheets, free SaaS tools, and Zapier glue that stopped fitting a year ago. We replace that with focused software built around how your business actually runs: a customer portal, an admin dashboard, a booking and payments flow, a CRM that matches your sales process, or an AI workflow that takes the repetitive work off your team's plate.
Every engagement starts with a short paid discovery, ends with a fixed-fee estimate you own regardless of who builds it, and ships in two-week sprints to a GitHub org in your name. Senior engineers scope the work and write the code — there's no hand-off to a junior team once the contract is signed.

The software your Tampa business is missing
From a first customer-facing web app to a full operations platform, we build the systems that let a Tampa business grow without adding headcount to manage the mess.
Custom Web Applications
Customer portals, booking flows, dashboards, and SaaS products — built in React and TypeScript with a real backend.
Internal Tools & Admin Portals
The operations software your team actually uses every day: job tracking, scheduling, approvals, reporting.
CRM & Lead Management Systems
Pipelines shaped to your sales process, with website forms, email, and calendar wired straight in.
Mobile Apps
iOS and Android apps in React Native or native Swift — from field-service tools to consumer products.
AI Agents & Automation
LLM-powered workflows that draft, classify, summarize, and route work — grounded in your own data.
Integrations & APIs
Stripe, QuickBooks, Google Workspace, Shopify, Twilio, and the systems you already run — connected properly.
Legacy Modernization
Incremental strangler-fig rewrites of aging systems. The old thing keeps running while we replace it.
Fractional CTO
Architecture, code review, vendor decisions, and hiring help for Tampa founders without a technical co-founder.
Built for the way Tampa Bay businesses operate
The same problems show up across the region — service companies, healthcare practices, hospitality groups, and startups. Here's how we solve them.
Home & field-service companies
Pain
Cleaning, HVAC, landscaping, detailing, and contracting businesses across Tampa Bay run on spreadsheets, texts, and three disconnected apps.
Solution
One system for leads, quotes, scheduling, crews, invoicing, and reviews — with a mobile view your techs can use from the truck.
Healthcare & professional practices
Pain
Intake, scheduling, and follow-up are manual, and the practice management software you're paying for doesn't fit your workflow.
Solution
Custom patient or client portals, intake automation, and reporting layers that sit alongside the systems you can't replace.
Hospitality, nightlife & events
Pain
Reservations, ticketing, staffing, and promoter tracking live in five tools that don't talk to each other.
Solution
Purpose-built operations platforms — we've shipped ticketing, venue check-in, and event sites for hospitality groups.
Startups & founders in Tampa
Pain
You have the idea and the customers but no technical co-founder, and agency quotes came back as a black box.
Solution
Fixed-fee MVP builds with a transparent scope, a senior team, and a codebase you own when it's time to hire in-house.
Built for ownership, scalability, and the long haul
A Tampa software partner that ships, then gets out of the way.
Local and accountable
A team you can meet in person in Tampa. No offshore hand-offs, no account managers between you and the engineers.
You own everything
Full IP assignment, your GitHub org from day one, and infrastructure in your accounts — never locked in to us.
Senior engineers only
The people who scope the project are the people who build it. 20+ shipped products, 5+ years, no junior bench.
Opinionated, but not married to a stack
We default to a tight set of tools we trust in production, and pick the right one for each layer.

Questions about software development in Tampa
What Tampa Bay businesses usually ask before kicking off a project with us.
Still unsure what you need?
Book a 30-minute technical discovery call. We'll help you clarify scope and the right next step.
Are you actually located in Tampa?
Yes. KeyesCode is a Florida LLC headquartered in Tampa, and our founders live and work in Tampa Bay. We meet clients in person across Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties, and work remote-first with everyone else.
How much does custom software development cost in Tampa?
It depends entirely on scope, which is why we don't quote off a phone call. A short paid discovery (usually 1–2 weeks) produces a fixed-fee estimate you own whether or not we build it. Focused internal tools and MVPs typically start in the low five figures; full operations platforms and multi-platform products are larger. We'll tell you early if an off-the-shelf tool would do the job for less.
How long does a typical project take?
Most focused builds ship a usable first version in 6–12 weeks. Larger platforms are staged so something is live and generating value within the first couple of months, then extended in two-week sprints. Average kickoff after signing is about two weeks.
Who owns the code and the accounts?
You do. We assign all IP on delivery, push to a GitHub organization in your name from day one, and deploy into cloud accounts you control. If you ever want to bring development in-house or switch vendors, nothing is held hostage.
Do you work with businesses outside Tampa?
Yes — we've shipped for clients across Florida and the US, and most collaboration happens over Slack and video regardless of where you are. Tampa Bay clients get the added option of in-person kickoffs and working sessions.
Can you take over or fix software another agency built?
Often. We start with a paid code and infrastructure audit, tell you honestly whether it's worth stabilizing or replacing, and if we take it on we modernize incrementally so your business keeps running the whole time.
