11–2 weeks
First, we listen
We meet your team, observe how you work today and look at the data available. Together we set measurable goals and the priorities to start from.
What you getA document with goals, priorities and a detailed estimate
We build custom technology for companies that want to work better.
Flain is a software house based in Rimini. We design websites, business software, integrations and IoT devices for manufacturing, production and hospitality companies, in Italy and abroad.
The right technology is the kind you don’t notice. It saves time, removes needless steps and leaves people the decisions that really matter.
That’s why we always start from how you work today, not from a product to sell. A Flain project begins with a few days spent with your team and ends, if all goes well, many years later.
Four disciplines, one team
Design, software, IoT and data work at the same table. And when external partners are needed, we coordinate them: you keep a single point of contact.
01
Design
Research with the people who will use the tool, flows, interfaces. Before we write a line of code, it has to be clear what’s needed and why.
02
Software development
Custom websites, web apps, business software and mobile apps. Documented, tested code, ready to grow.
03
IoT & machine integration
We connect machinery and sensors to your systems. When a custom device is needed, we build it with selected hardware partners and coordinate the whole project ourselves.
04
Data & AI
Integrations, dashboards and models that turn the data you collect into decisions, with no Excel sheets in between.
Why custom
Off-the-shelf software is fine for many things. But when it becomes the way your company works, it pays to have it built for you.

What we believe in
01
Everything documented
Every project has up-to-date documentation: anyone who joins the team, yours or ours, always knows where to pick up.
02
One contact, always the same
The person looking after you knows the project from the first meeting to the latest release. No anonymous tickets.
03
We decide by the numbers
Every feature starts from a concrete goal and is assessed after release, not on gut feeling.
04
Better small
We release early and often. A simple tool the team uses is worth more than a complete one left in a drawer.
The industries we know best
Travel & hospitality
Software to manage itineraries, services, quotes and internal operations. Fewer manual steps, a better experience for the end customer.
Manufacturing
Quote configurators, portals for sales networks and partners, dashboards to monitor production and orders.
Production
Job order management, integration with ERP and machinery, real-time operational reports.
How we work
Three phases, always the same. You always know where we are, what you’re about to receive and how much is left.
22-week sprints
Then we build, in small steps
Design and development move forward in two-week sprints. With each sprint you see the product grow, try it out and decide with us what comes next.
What you getA working demo every two weeks
3Ongoing
And we stay after launch
We monitor, fix and add features as your company grows. Many of our projects have been running for years.
What you getSupport, updates and a shared roadmap
Where we meet
The best way to understand how you work is to see you at work. That’s why we usually come to you.
The first meeting
On site, at your office or plant.
Half a day with the team who will use the tool is worth more than ten meetings.
Online
Remote calls and demos for every sprint update. All it takes is a link.
Across Italy and abroad
We work remotely with companies anywhere, travelling for the key moments of the project.
