Custom CRM & Admin Dashboard Development

Escape the per-seat SaaS tax. I build tailored, high-speed CRM platforms and internal operations dashboards with Next.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, and strict RBAC controls — designed 100% around your business workflow.

Built for Sales Velocity and Operational Security

Generic software forces your team to adapt to its limitations. A custom dashboard empowers your team with instant search, automated lead routing, and complete data sovereignty.

Tailored to Your Exact Sales Funnel

No rigid off-the-shelf constraints. Every column, stage, lead status, conversion pipeline, and custom formula is designed specifically around how your team closes deals.

Granular Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

Strict multi-tier permission matrix protecting sensitive revenue numbers, customer contact information, and audit logs. Easily segregate Admins, Sales Managers, SDRs, and External Contractors.

Sub-100ms Instant Search & Filtering

Fast client-side indexing combined with optimized PostgreSQL trigram indexes (pg_trgm) allowing your team to search through 100,000+ lead records in milliseconds without page refreshes.

Bulk Ingest & One-Click CSV/Excel Exports

High-speed streaming parser handling 50,000+ row CSV imports with schema validation, automatic duplicate deduplication, and instantaneous formatted exports.

Automated Scraping & Ingestion Pipelines

Direct integration with custom Playwright scraping bots, Meta Ads Leads webhooks, and third-party APIs. New qualified opportunities populate sales queues automatically.

Real-Time Revenue & Conversion Metrics

Live KPI charts, rep quota tracking, win/loss conversion ratios, and activity timeline audit trails rendered with interactive Recharts components.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers regarding migration, per-seat costs, and customization.

Why should we build a custom CRM instead of paying for HubSpot or Salesforce?

Off-the-shelf CRMs charge hefty per-seat monthly fees ($100–$150/user/month). For a 20-person sales team, that is $24,000–$36,000 every single year — for rigid tools that force you into their workflow. A custom CRM is a one-time build that you own forever with zero per-user fees, saving tens of thousands in licensing while aligning 100% with your operational processes.

Can we migrate our existing customer data from spreadsheets or our old CRM?

Yes. I write automated ETL scripts that sanitize, deduplicate, and import your existing customer lists, sales histories, and notes from Excel, CSV, or legacy CRM API exports into your new database with complete data integrity.

How fast is the search functionality when our database reaches 100,000+ leads?

Lightning fast. By combining PostgreSQL generalized inverted indexes (GIN) with trigram matching and client-side memory caching, search queries return matching accounts in under 100 milliseconds, even across hundreds of thousands of contacts.

Is our sensitive company and customer data secure?

Absolutely. Your platform runs entirely on your own private cloud infrastructure (AWS or Supabase). All connections use SSL encryption, passwords use bcrypt/argon2 hashing, and database queries are parameterized to eliminate SQL injection vulnerabilities.
