I build software Australian mortgage brokers actually use.
I'm Nick Clunes. I write and run a small set of lending applications from Newcastle. Brokers, licensees, lenders and aggregators bring me the work their systems cannot do, and I build it the way an in-house developer would.
Products
Six applications, all of them in use. Three have public sites; the rest run inside the businesses they were built for.
Short scopes, working software, your keys at the end.
- 01
I identify the problem or time consuming aspect of the business and scope the solution.
- 02
Applications and databases run in Sydney, on Australian infrastructure.
- 03
We aim to write code which runs without the assistance of AI.
- 04
Deterministic where money is involved. A model never decides a number.
No rate card, no sales team, no discovery phase that bills for a document nobody reads.
I worked inside mortgage broking before I wrote software for it. Every application here started as a job that was costing a broker time or money, often my own. I write the code, I run the releases, and you talk to me rather than an account manager. The goal has always been time: mine goes back into flying recreational aircraft, and the software hands the same hours to the brokers who use it.
