Software development for Newcastle & Durham
Custom platforms, SaaS, mobile and AI for businesses in Newcastle, Gateshead and County Durham — senior engineers who meet you in person and build software you own.
A product engineering studio for Newcastle & Durham
Newcastle and Durham are home to some of the most ambitious businesses in the North — university spin-outs, fast-growing professional services firms, established manufacturers and a lively startup scene. What many of them share is a need for software that does exactly what their business needs and nothing that it does not.
InteleForge builds that software. From our base in Darlington we work on site across Tyne and Wear and County Durham, running discovery workshops with your team, designing the product around how you actually operate, and building it on a modern, well-supported stack that any competent engineer can maintain. Our portfolio includes a live events marketplace with ticketing, Stripe payments and organiser dashboards — proof that we ship complete products, not prototypes.
Engagements start with a short, fixed-price discovery and a fixed price for the first build phase. You own the code, the designs and the cloud accounts from the first commit.

Software services for businesses in Newcastle & Durham
Every service is delivered end to end by the same senior team, with a fixed price for the first phase.
Product Engineering
One senior team takes your idea through discovery, design, build and launch — and stays to scale it. This is how we built theSBKdance, a live events marketplace.
SaaS & Web Platforms
Dashboards, workflows, subscriptions and integrations — custom web applications that your customers pay for and your operation runs on.
AI & Automation
Copilots, agents, document understanding and automation built into your product — designed around a real workflow, measured against a real outcome.
Mobile Apps
Cross-platform apps that feel native, share a backend with your web product, and ship to both app stores from a single codebase.
Cloud & DevOps
Cloud architecture, automated deployments, security and monitoring — so your product is fast, resilient and affordable to run.
Product Strategy & UX
Discovery, user research, prototypes and a roadmap — so the product you invest in is the one customers actually want.
