Working with trades and compliance businesses across Glasgow, I kept seeing the same pattern: brilliant people spending more time on admin than their actual work. Excel spreadsheets, paper forms, and disconnected systems were holding them back.
One electrician spent 3 hours every Friday matching invoices to jobs. A property company used 5 different systems that didn't talk to each other. A compliance consultant was drowning in manual certificate generation.
Existing solutions were either too complex, too expensive, or built for different industries. We decided to build something that actually understands your business and speaks your language.
"We believe technology should make your life easier, not harder. That's why every feature in Cushty exists because a real business needed it to work better."
Today, we're proud to help businesses across the UK streamline their operations, reduce admin time, and focus on what they do best. From solo electricians to multi-site property companies, we've learned that the best solutions come from understanding real problems, not theoretical ones.
These aren't just words on a wall — they're the principles that shape every decision we make.
Technology should make your life easier, not harder. We obsess over simplicity so you can focus on what matters most — your business.
We build solutions for real problems, not theoretical ones. Every feature exists because a real business needed it to work better.
Powerful business tools shouldn't cost a fortune. We believe every business, regardless of size, deserves access to great technology.
From idea to helping businesses transform their operations, one step at a time.
After working with small businesses, we noticed the same admin challenges everywhere. The idea for Cushty was born from wanting to solve these real problems.
We built our first working prototype and tested it with a few local businesses. The feedback was positive — they could see the potential for saving time.
Launched our beta with a small group of businesses. Each one helped us understand what small businesses really needed and refine our approach.
Cushty officially launched to the public. We've been steadily growing and learning from each business we work with.
Today, we're focused on helping businesses save time and reduce admin stress. We're still learning and improving with each new client.
We want to give every small business the same operational advantages that big companies have — without the complexity, cost, or need for a dedicated IT team.
When small businesses can focus on what they do best instead of drowning in admin, everyone wins. Better businesses, happier owners, stronger communities.
