Based in Basildon, working across Essex
Our registered address is 17 Liddell Drive in Basildon, and Essex is where we started in 2024. If your business is in Basildon, Chelmsford, Southend, Brentwood or Colchester, we can come to you, see how the work gets done, and talk to the people who will use the software.
Seeing it first hand saves time. A booking system or a stock screen is easier to get right once we have watched someone use the spreadsheet it is replacing.
You talk to the people writing the code. Some of the team are in London and we have a wider remote bench for larger builds, but the company you are hiring is an Essex one. If you are further afield, we also work with businesses in London and remotely across the UK.
What we build for Essex businesses
We take on two kinds of local project: a website, or a process that has outgrown its spreadsheet. Both are built on a stack we know well, which is Next.js, React, Laravel, a custom or Filament admin dashboard, and WordPress where it fits.
- WebsitesFast, mobile-ready sites with a fixed price. Starter is up to five pages, Professional adds a CMS so you can edit it yourself.
- Web applicationsBooking, scheduling, customer portals and dashboards, built around how your business runs.
- Laravel developmentLaravel with a custom or Filament admin dashboard. Laravel and Filament are the stack behind Prep2Pass, below.
- EcommerceOnline shops with payments, stock and order handling.
- ERP and internal systemsWeb-based systems that replace paper, spreadsheets and the same data typed in twice.
- Mobile appsFlutter, React Native or NativePHP apps for iPhone and Android from one codebase. From £1,999, depending on your requirements.
Built for an Essex driving school
Prep2Pass is a driving school in Essex. We built the platform it runs on: student registration, lesson scheduling and instructor management, with a Filament admin panel behind it.
It is built in Laravel and it is live, so you can look at it before you speak to us. There is more on our projects page.
“Before working with Boolet, our internal processes were slow and fragmented. Their custom software streamlined everything into one platform, saving us hours each week. Boolet exceeded our expectations, the team was highly professional throughout the project.”

Meet us in Essex
The first conversation is a free 30-minute call, by phone or video. After that we are glad to meet in person, which usually means we come to your premises.
During a build, the weekly catch-up is usually a video call with a demo you can click through, because it is quicker for everyone. We come back on site when it helps, for example for a handover or a training session at launch.
