Custom Software Studio

We build your app.
We keep it running.

New Trail Design builds custom software for small businesses — then manages the hosting and backend services so everything stays running after launch.

What we do

Three pieces, one studio

Most software shops stop once the app is built. We don't — your app needs somewhere to live and a backend that doesn't break. We coordinate with trusted service partners to make that happen.

BUILD

Custom app development

A working app built around how your business actually runs — bookings, scheduling, inventory, client portals, whatever the job needs. No generic templates.

HOST

Hosting

Your app gets its own subdomain and secure HTTPS — deployed, monitored, and kept online through trusted third-party hosting services.

DATA

Database & backend

Your app's data — accounts, records, and files — stored and managed securely through reliable third-party database services.

How it works

From request to live product

The same three steps, every time — in this order, because each one depends on the last.

01

We build it

Once your project is scoped and a $100 deposit is received, we get to work — building around your actual workflow, tested before anything goes live. The remaining balance is due before or at launch.

02

We host it

Your app goes live on a subdomain, with hosting, HTTPS, and uptime managed through our network of trusted services.

03

We maintain it

We keep the backend running and the data safe through our service partners — so the app still works the same way a year from now.

Pricing

Straightforward, by the piece

Every project's different — these are starting points. Final pricing depends on scope, and we'll always confirm it with you before starting.
