what we do
Still running on spreadsheets and manual work? We build AI automation and custom workflows that fit how your team already works — no bloated "system" required.
Bespoke software built around your business, not the other way around. From internal tools and custom platforms to full-scale products — designed, built, and supported by CERIS.
Fast, conversion-focused websites and custom web apps — company profiles, landing pages, e-commerce, client portals, and dashboards. Hand-coded, mobile-first, SEO-ready, and yours to keep. No page-builder bloat.
Custom iOS and Android apps built around your users and your operations — consumer apps, internal field and inventory tools, and B2B portals. Cross-platform, with local payments and Bahasa support baked in.
Odoo implementation and custom ERP for Indonesian businesses — an experienced ERP consultant (konsultan ERP) with 5+ years of hands-on Odoo, serving Batam, Kepri, Sumatra, and beyond. We run Odoo ourselves, so you get an implementer that actually uses it.
how we solve problems
Walk through how we take a client's manual, painful process and turn it into something that runs itself.
SEO · Indonesia
A remote SEO specialist hand-researched 20+ competitor and high-traffic keywords every single day. We built a simple custom tool that pulls the data and builds the report at the click of a button.
The problem
Working remotely for a US company, the client had to find at least 20 competitor brands and high-traffic keywords a day, then look up the search volume and the 7- and 30-day trend for each. It was pure repetition — and it ate most of his working day.
What we found
We walked through his real workflow in detail, then brainstormed internally. Finding candidate keywords, pulling volume, and tracking trends were all repeatable lookups a machine could do. The only part that truly needed him was deciding which results actually mattered.
Our approach
We proposed a single, focused custom app rather than something heavy. Google Autocomplete expands the keyword set, and DataForSEO supplies the search volume plus the 7- and 30-day pulse. He logs in, clicks once to run it, and clicks once more to export — nothing else to learn.
What we built
We built a Django web app with a simple login. One button kicks off the whole pipeline: expand keywords via autocomplete, enrich each with volume and 7-/30-day trend data, and present the full list. A second button exports that day’s results straight to Excel.
The result
What used to take 9–12 hours now runs on its own. The client logs in, clicks once, and spends roughly an hour reviewing the output instead of gathering it — close to 10× less time on the task each day.
Software Agency · Singapore
A software company was building around 10 client websites a day by hand for a loyal customer. We built a web app that generates them from a template and keywords, so the team just reviews the output.
The problem
A fellow software company came to us with a loyal client whose work meant producing around 10 quality websites every day. Their team built each one by hand — a full day of repetitive work across several people, day after day.
What we found
After mapping the workflow with them and brainstorming internally, the pattern was clear: the only real differences between sites were the domain, the target keywords, and the reference template. The actual building was a repeatable generation task — and quality control was the part that needed people.
Our approach
We proposed a web app that wraps GPT as the generation engine. The team enters the target domain, the required keywords, and a source template as a reference, then clicks once to start. They can walk away — grab a coffee, work on other projects — and come back to finished sites.
What we built
We built the app around their inputs: key in the domain and keywords, point it at the template references, and click to start. It processes the batch over a few hours; when it’s done, one more click downloads the whole set of finished websites, ready for review.
The result
The daily build no longer needs a room of people. What took 8–12 hours now takes 2–3 hours of reviewing the output, freeing the team for other projects while the batch runs on its own.
E-commerce · Indonesia
A Shopee dropshipper needed a monthly sales report for his vendor. Instead of a heavy ERP, we built a lightweight custom tool that pulls the orders and builds the report in a single click.
The problem
A Shopee marketplace dropshipper had a simple, recurring need: every month, produce a sales report for his vendor and settle the commission. The catch was that Shopee’s own export didn’t match what the vendor wanted, so he had to recraft and revalidate the report by hand each time.
What we found
He’d been advised elsewhere to adopt Odoo ERP with a Shopee connector, but that was overkill for what he actually did: pull the month’s orders, craft the report, validate it, and send it to the vendor. We were upfront — even suggesting the plain Shopee export first — but his requirement was specific enough that a focused tool fit best.
Our approach
Rather than a heavy platform with menus and modules he’d never touch, we proposed a simple custom web app: open it, log in, and click one button to do the whole job. After weighing it against the ERP route, the client agreed and we started building.
What we built
The tool does exactly the four steps and nothing more: log in, click once, and it pulls the month’s Shopee orders, crafts the vendor-formatted report, and exports it to Excel. On his own testing, all that was left for him was a quick review before sending it on.
The result
What used to take 3–6 hours a month now runs on one click. He logs in monthly, reviews the generated report, and sends it to the vendor — no reformatting, no revalidating from scratch, and no ERP to maintain.
Café · Indonesia
A café was running a standalone POS alongside separate spreadsheets and software. We implemented Odoo ERP to bring the POS, purchasing, and accounting into one connected system — live in about a month.
The problem
The café was running a standalone POS alongside separate spreadsheets and other software. None of it talked to each other, so the same information had to be moved between tools by hand. The owner wanted a POS that was reliable, could connect to his other systems, and could be customised to how the café actually ran — without building everything from scratch, which would take too long.
What we found
Each part of the business — sales, purchasing, accounting — ran in its own silo, so the same data was maintained in several places at once. Rather than build a new system from scratch, the faster and more reliable path was to bring everything onto one proven, customisable platform.
Our approach
We proposed Odoo’s POS module as the reliable, customisable POS he was after, then offered to migrate his existing workflows — purchasing and accounting — into Odoo as well, so everything connected seamlessly. Knowing he and his staff would need to adapt, we built a role-based training and support package into the proposal. He was hesitant at first about the change, but after weighing it up — and with a long-standing trust in our founder — he decided to go ahead.
What we built
We implemented Odoo around how the café already worked and, within about a month, went live with his existing workflow intact. Go-live came with hands-on training and a manual written to match how the owner and his team actually prefer to learn — which is why they picked it up quickly. We also included 30 days of free support for the first implementation.
The result
The café now runs on a single connected platform — POS, purchasing, and accounting in one place, instead of scattered tools that don’t talk to each other. The team adapted quickly thanks to the tailored training, and we’ve continued to add enhancements and improvements as new needs come up.

A remote SEO specialist hand-researched 20+ competitor and high-traffic keywords every single day. We built a simple custom tool that pulls the data and builds the report at the click of a button.
The problem
Working remotely for a US company, the client had to find at least 20 competitor brands and high-traffic keywords a day, then look up the search volume and the 7- and 30-day trend for each. It was pure repetition — and it ate most of his working day.
