Project Pixel Lab explores practical digital tools, custom software and lightweight systems that help businesses, founders, communities and social-good projects work better.
Portals, dashboards, CRMs and internal systems built quickly on modern development tooling.
Small, focused tools that use AI where it genuinely helps, and plain logic everywhere it does not.
Interfaces designed for real people, including those using screen readers, keyboards or low bandwidth.
Joining up the tools an organisation already pays for so the admin stops eating the week.
Most bad software exists because someone picked a tool before they understood the job. The Lab works the other way round.
Honest labels: some of these are live, some are half-built, some are still just a good argument for building them.
A short assessment that tells an organisation where its digital setup is actually weak.
Turns a vague idea into a proper brief a designer or developer can quote from.
A guided checklist for small businesses that cannot afford an SEO retainer.
Helps community projects work out what they need before applying for funding.
A very simple way for a group to get a credible page online in an afternoon.
The portal Project Pixel runs on, adaptable for other service businesses.
Contact and enquiry tracking for teams who find the big platforms overkill.
Lightweight booking flows that work on a phone and do not need training.
A place for funded projects to record and show what changed.
If you can describe the problem and who it affects, that is enough to start. We will tell you honestly whether it is worth building and what it would take.
Submitting an idea does not guarantee funding, partnership or support.
Submit your project →Some Lab projects work best as partnerships: you bring the sector knowledge and the users, we bring the build. Depending on the project that could be a standard commercial arrangement, a subsidised build, a profit-share or a shared ownership agreement.
Any profit-share, ownership, licensing or partnership arrangement would be discussed openly and confirmed through a separate written agreement before work begins.
