Stop renting your software.

Burclea designs and builds the systems your business runs on, so you own them instead of paying for them every month.

Ownership

Built once, owned by you

Software we build for you carries no per-user licence fee.

Privacy

Sensitive data sealed at the source

Where it matters, we build on Ghostables so stored records cannot be read by whoever holds the database.

UK company

Part of Ghostables Ltd

Burclea is the consultancy and build studio of Ghostables Ltd.

Most businesses pay rent on software they could own.

Subscriptions arrive one at a time and never leave. A licence per user here, an add-on there, a platform that charges more as you grow. Each one is small. Together they are a monthly bill that only goes up.

Much of that software does a job that is specific to you and does not change often. Those are the parts worth building once and owning. We help you find them, and then we build them.

Services

What we build

Consultancy to find the savings, and the engineering to deliver them.

Custom applications

Internal tools, portals and line-of-business systems built around how your organisation already works, instead of the other way round.

Progressive web apps

One application that installs on phones, tablets and desktops from the browser, works on a poor connection, and avoids app store fees and review queues.

Learn more

SaaS platforms

Multi-tenant products with accounts, billing and administration, for organisations that want to sell software as well as use it.

Learn more

Licence and subscription reduction

A review of what you pay per user, per month, for platforms such as Microsoft Dynamics, and a plan to replace the parts that cost more than they return.

Encrypted applications

Applications built on Ghostables, where sensitive records are sealed before they are stored, so a stolen copy of the database holds no readable records.

Consultancy

An independent view of your systems and suppliers: what to keep, what to renegotiate, what to replace, and what it would take.

Built on Ghostables

Privacy built in from the first line

A breach costs more than the fine. It costs customers, time and trust. As more business data is fed into AI tools and third-party platforms, the simplest protection is for that data to be unreadable to anyone who should not have it.

Burclea is part of Ghostables Ltd. When an application holds sensitive records, we can build it on Ghostables, which seals data before it is stored and flags any record changed behind your back.

  • Stored records the host cannot read
  • Changes made outside the proper path are flagged
  • Runs in your own infrastructure

How an engagement works

Four steps, each with a clear decision at the end of it.

  1. Review

    We go through what you pay for each month, who uses it and what it does for you.

  2. Decide

    You get a short written plan: what to keep, what to replace, the cost to build and when it pays for itself.

  3. Build

    We build in stages you can see and use, and move your data across with you.

  4. Hand over

    The system is yours. We stay on for support and changes for as long as you want us to.
