About

A small studio, on purpose.

Dextry is an Australian software studio that builds custom software and practical AI for small and mid-sized businesses. It's deliberately small: real software engineers working directly with the people who'll use the software.

The story

Why Dextry exists.

Plenty of Australian businesses are held together by spreadsheets, copy-paste and one person who knows how everything works. Off-the-shelf software gets them part of the way, and big consultancies are priced for big companies.

Dextry sits in between: custom software and AI built for how a business actually runs, at a scale and price that makes sense for a small or mid-sized business.

The approach

How the work gets done.

  • Small first, then grow

    Every project starts with the smallest release that proves its value. Big-bang projects are where budgets go to die.

  • Boring technology, carefully chosen

    Proven, well-supported tools, so your software is easy to maintain and easy for another developer to pick up.

  • Honest about AI

    AI where it earns its keep, and a plain 'no' where it doesn't. A person stays in charge of anything that matters.

  • Your data, in Australia

    Hosting in Sydney, backups in Australia, and no personal data sent offshore without you knowing and agreeing.

  • You own it

    The code, the data and the documentation are yours. No lock-in, and no hostage situations.

Why a small studio

Why a small Australian studio.

A small team isn't right for every project, and you'll be told if yours needs a bigger one. For most small and mid-sized businesses, it's a better deal.

  • You talk to the engineers building it

    No account managers or hand-offs. The engineers in the consult are the ones writing the code.

  • Focused, not stretched

    A small number of clients at a time, so your project gets attention rather than a ticket number.

  • Lean overheads

    No office tower or sales team to pay for. Your budget goes into the software.

  • Local hours, local law

    Australian business hours, Australian privacy law, and an Australian business you can hold to account.
