Services

Software shaped around the problem.

PCGsoft starts by understanding the workflow before recommending a website, web application, mobile app, automation or AI component.

Bespoke business systems

Purpose-built tools that fit how an operation actually runs, rather than forcing a team into a template process.

Web applications and dashboards

Internal platforms and operational views that surface the right information at the right time.

Mobile applications

Focused mobile tools for people working away from a desk: clear, reliable and maintainable.

Workflow automation

Connected steps that reduce re-entry and remove friction from processes that already exist.

AI integration

Assisted tools where they earn their place: governed, practical and tied to real tasks.

Websites and digital presence

Clear, credible sites that explain the work without the noise of a generic template.

Useful, maintainable systems over technology for its own sake.

The right answer may be a website, internal application, mobile app, automation, AI-assisted tool or a carefully designed combination.

Selected work

Use the registry to move from a concise explanation to the public source or live surface where one exists.

ProductLive

The Trace Manifest

Evidence-governed AI intelligence for understanding what changed, what is credible and what people should use.

Open sourceProvisional integration

The Fates

An umbrella architecture separating capability discovery from authority to execute.

ProductActive development

Whilom

Heritage discovery, research and travel built around places, people, stories and journeys.

Trustworthy AI

Public explanations, public boundaries.

The open-source work focuses on the parts of agent systems that need careful definitions: what can be discovered, what can be remembered, what can be executed and what can be audited.

Ananke

Policy, approval, audit and recoverable outcomes around tool execution.

Mnemosyne

Project memory, provenance, reliability and conflict handling.

Horae

Discovery, admission, composition and lifecycle supervision.

Creative

A warmer corner of the studio.

Narrative and playful work, carefully built and clearly labelled by its current stage.

Read Me a Story

Under construction

A child-focused reading experience in which young readers help a mother dragon hatch her eggs by reading stories aloud.

How we work

Understand first. Build what fits.

A grounded process for making useful software without over-building the wrong thing.

  1. Understand the workflow

    Map people, hand-offs, tools and constraints before writing software.

  2. Identify the real problem

    Separate symptoms from causes so the solution targets friction that matters.

  3. Prototype the right solution

    Test assumptions early without building an entire system up front.

  4. Build, test and improve

    Deliver maintainable software, validate it in use and refine it around real operation.

About

An independent UK software studio.

PCGsoft is an independent UK software studio founded by Phil Geran. It grew from first-hand experience of operational work and the belief that useful software should reflect how people actually work, not force people into a generic process.

The studio’s current work spans transport compliance, business systems, trustworthy AI infrastructure and selected creative applications.
