Bespoke Software & Web Development in Chichester
I help businesses in Chichester build the custom tools, websites, and integrations that standard platforms can't handle. Work smarter with technology built specifically for your business.
Make your systems work for you.

My Services
I provide comprehensive digital solutions tailored to your business needs. I handle every part of your project, from design to deployment.
Website Development
Your website is often the first interaction a client has with your business. I build high-performance, accessible, SEO-ready websites with clean code and custom CMS functionality, giving you full control without breaking the layout.
API & Data Integration
Your software should not live in silos. I build middleware that connects your CRM, accounting software, and third-party services like Stripe, Xero, or Salesforce. I help you eliminate manual data entry and reduce human error.
Custom Business Software
Complex problems require robust solutions. I build secure, scalable web applications using modern frameworks like React and Laravel. I engineer for performance, security, and long-term maintainability.
Mobile App Development
Reach your customers (or staff) directly on their devices. I develop high-performance, cross-platform mobile applications. I deliver native-feeling apps for iOS and Android while reducing development and maintenance costs.
UI/UX Design
Complex functionality fails if users cannot figure out how to use it. I design intuitive interfaces, wireframes, and prototypes that prioritize clarity and efficiency before a single line of code is written.
Cloud Hosting & Infrastructure
Modern software requires modern infrastructure. I manage secure cloud deployments, automated backups, SSL certificates, and server performance. I ensure your applications remain fast, reliable, and protected.
Your Friendly, Local Technical Partner
I am Sammy McKay, a software engineer with seven years of experience shipping high-impact code. I operate as SMZR, based in Chichester, and I serve clients across West Sussex and the UK.
I bridge the gap between a freelancer and an agency. You get the direct communication and accountability of a single contact, with the technical capability usually reserved for large development teams.
I am equally comfortable engineering complex custom software as I am deploying simple, effective websites. I offer enterprise-grade capabilities scaled to your needs.
When I am not writing code, you will find me walking the South Downs with Pablo, my Boston Terrier.
