Organic software. Built in Glasgow.
Agilus. For those who matter.
The plumber doing wages at the kitchen table on a Sunday night.
The dental laboratory still finishing a crown after the lab has closed.
The trampoline park owner sweeping the foam pit before anyone arrives.
The fire protection director re-reading a regulation on a Sunday afternoon.
Agilus builds organic software for the people doing the real work in Scotland. Bespoke, founder-led, built after we have spent time on the ground with you. The systems we make are designed around the way you actually work, not the way a Silicon Valley product manager imagined you might.
If that is you, or someone you know, come and find us.

Founder profiles.
Bowden Family / BounceStation, Irvine
The Bowden family runs a children’s leisure centre that opens every weekend to several hundred families. The business was on a generic EPOS system that took twenty per cent of staff time to fight with. We rebuilt the operation on Posilus: sessions, parties, payments, bookings, all on one platform, integrated with Dojo at fair UK card processing rates. The card processing alone now saves hundreds of pounds a month.

Nicky and his two brothers, Mark and Greg, run a fire protection business across Scotland, with engineers on site before most offices open. The compliance documentation alone was killing the operation: four standalone systems, each one bought separately, none of them talking to each other. We brought everything into Tradilus: enquiry to invoice in one place, drawing-linked compliance records, subcontractor tracking, the analytics the directors actually use.
Read the full storyDr Usman Qureshi / Luxe Skin, Glasgow
Dr Q runs Luxe Skin, an aesthetic clinic on Ingram Street in Glasgow that he founded in 2012. He personally performs every treatment, and the clinic runs on Q-Plan, a monthly subscription that lets patients build a treatment balance and draw on it whenever they choose. It is a commercial model that maps neatly onto how Agilus thinks about software. We jointly developed AesthetiQ with him: patient records, treatments, scheduling, payments and regulatory compliance, all designed around the chairside.

James is a strength and conditioning coach who runs Mauchline Barbell Club on Kilmarnock Road: small-group coaching, programmed strength blocks, nutrition work, seminars. A club like that lives on scheduling, programming and retention, and the software for it has meant renting American platforms priced for gym chains, not for a coach with a barbell club. We are bringing the whole operation onto Vitalus, with bookings, memberships, programming, payments and member progress in one place, which will save the club hundreds of pounds a year and hand James back the hours he spends on admin.

The Agilus stack.
Hover over a heading above, or click a layer, to pull it out of the stack.
Layer 01
Software shaped around the way your business actually works, not the other way round. One monthly subscription covers the build, the hosting and the ongoing support.
Layer 02
Practical AI built into the everyday running of your business. Every provider that touches your data is named, and none of them train on it. Where the conversation is confidential, the processing runs on your own hardware and nothing leaves the building in a form anyone else can use.
Layer 03
The engine room beneath every Agilus application. Built once, improved with every project, and reused so you never pay to reinvent the basics.
Layer 04
Card payments at fair UK rates, integrated directly into your platform. More of every payment stays with the people who earned it.
Layer 05
Architecture matched to the sensitivity of the data.
The platforms.
The Scottish alternative to Calendly, bundled inside every Agilus platform rather than rented per user. Public booking pages, shareable links, embeddable widgets, calendar sync. Built into every vertical and available standalone.
Horizontal capability, built into every vertical Explore Agilus Diary
Voice and email handling for the customer-facing side of the operation, from the first enquiry through to a booked appointment.
Available today: intelligent inbound email handling that responds with an outbound voice call to book the appointment, including auto-response and routing.
In active development: inbound call handling and routing.
Clinical and confidential work: transcription and the model run on your hardware. Nothing is sent away to be read.
Property management for independent letting and estate agents. Enquiry handling, viewing booking, Home Report, LBTT, market appraisal, and the property-side intelligence that takes the cold-call load off the human team. Built for the independent agent who refuses to be absorbed into a national chain.
Vertical platform Explore PropilusClinical practice management for the aesthetics sector. Botox, fillers, skin treatments and body contouring: the regulated aesthetic procedures market specifically. Patient records, treatments, scheduling, payments and regulatory compliance, all designed around the chairside.
Vertical platform Explore AesthetiQClinic management for private medical practice. Private GPs, private consultants, and private hospitals running on bespoke clinical workflow rather than the NHS systems they came from. Patient records, scheduling, billing, regulatory compliance, integrated with the rest of the operation rather than bolted onto it.
Vertical platform Explore MedilusDental laboratory and dental practice management. Practice scheduling and patient records on one side, lab order management and technician workflows on the other, materials tracking and regulatory documentation across both. Designed around how a real dental operation runs end to end.
Vertical platform Explore DentilusOperations management for the building trade. Contractors, installers, and trade suppliers across the sectors that build, fit out, and maintain Scotland’s building stock. Enquiry to invoice in one place, drawing-linked records, scheduled work tracking, subcontractor management, materials movement, the documentation that has to match the work and the analytics the directors actually use.
Vertical platform Explore TradilusOperations management for independent fitness and movement businesses. Private gyms, personal training studios, pilates and yoga studios, sports clubs, dance schools and martial arts schools, wherever a member-based business runs on scheduling, payments, and retention. UK alternative to the American gym management platforms that price out the smaller operator.
Vertical platform Explore VitalusPoint of sale for any operator that takes payment at a counter, terminal, or table. Hospitality, retail, leisure, clinical practices, trade counters and professional services, wherever the till runs. Dojo, Worldpay and Global Payments integrated, lower processing fees, built around how each operator actually takes money.

How organic software gets built.
Here is exactly how an Agilus engagement runs, from first conversation to live software.
01
30 to 60 minutes
A direct call with the founder. No sales script, no qualifying questions. The goal is to understand what you actually need.
02
1 to 2 weeks
Mapping your operation in enough detail to estimate the build properly. You see a written specification before any money changes hands.
03
4 to 12 weeks
Engineering, design, and delivery of the first working version. You see progress weekly.
04
Monthly, indefinite
Hosting, support, improvements, integrations, evolution. The same engineer who built it stays on it.
Same engineer, start to finish. Grow with us.
The argument.
Software in Scotland gets built for two markets. One end is small: cheap tools that do not fit, sold by the million. The other end is enormous: bespoke platforms costing six figures, built for FTSE companies with finance directors.
Between them is the part of the economy that actually employs your neighbours. Twelve to fifty people. A warehouse, a workshop, a clinic. Half a million to five million in turnover.
Nobody is building for them. Off-the-shelf does not fit. Enterprise is unaffordable. There is no organic software grown for them. So they carry the cost: in software bills, in staff hours, in late Wednesday nights at the bookkeeper’s desk.
Agilus works for you. Bank on us. Save with us.
