Services
The work usually starts with one broken workflow: manual exports, repeated data entry, disconnected tools, or a web experience that no longer fits the business.
01
Replace repetitive admin with API integrations, data flows, browser automation, and small tools that fit the way the business already works.
02
Build practical dashboards, portals, admin flows, and web apps when spreadsheets and disconnected SaaS tools stop being enough.
03
Use AI where it reduces real work: summarizing, routing, drafting, classifying, checking, and coordinating actions across tools.
04
Get a clear read on what is slowing down the business, what should be automated, and what is worth building before committing budget.
Case studies
These projects show the range: SaaS products, internal operations tooling, custom web experiences, and the implementation discipline behind them.
B2B SaaS platform
Problem
Meeting no-shows needed a product workflow across outreach, accounts, billing, and reporting.
Shipped
Multi-tenant dashboard, AI-assisted outreach flows, Stripe billing, and meeting management.
SaaS system built around real operational follow-up, not a static brochure site.
Operations platform
Problem
Music operations were spread across submissions, track data, artist pipelines, and manual coordination.
Shipped
A focused internal platform for managing label workflows, content, and operational visibility.
Shows the same automation thinking used for business process tooling.
Website, CMS, and internal tooling
Problem
A US record label and publisher in Sony’s The Orchard partner network was scaling fast, and needed a rebuilt web presence plus internal tooling for operations that had outgrown spreadsheets.
Shipped
Full Next.js rebuild with an internal CMS the team manages without developers, campaign-tracking tooling, and contract data automation that cut rights checks from hours to minutes.
Live in production with ongoing systems work — a working client relationship, not a one-off site.
Process
01
Identify the current tools, handoffs, manual steps, edge cases, and business goal before proposing a build.
02
Define what should be automated, what should stay human, and what interface or integration is actually needed.
03
Ship a maintainable solution with clear behavior, documented assumptions, and a practical path for refinement.
Pricing and engagement
Consulting engagements fail when the scope is vague and the billing is hourly forever. Tricion works the other way: define the outcome first, price the project against it, and hand over something your team owns.
Fixed small scope
Map the current process, tools, and failure points. You get a written read on what is worth automating, what should stay manual, and what a build would realistically cost.
Useful before committing budget. Also works as a second opinion on an existing plan or vendor quote.
Most land between €2k and €10k
Integrations, internal tools, dashboards, and web systems. Scoped against the workflow first, then delivered at a fixed project price once the outcome is clear.
Larger systems are split into phases so every stage ships something the business can already use.
Optional, after handover
Every build is handed over with documented behavior and assumptions. Support and iteration afterwards are available, but never required to keep the system running.
No lock-in: the code, accounts, and documentation are yours.
Not sure which fits? Describe the workflow and you will get a direct read on scope and cost.

About
Tricion is led by Ivan van der Schuit, a developer and operator who has built SaaS products, AI tools, internal platforms, and custom web experiences from the ground up.
That includes hands-on systems work for Black 17 Media, a US record label and publisher operating in Sony's The Orchard partner network: internal campaign tooling, contract data automation, reporting pipelines, and a full website rebuild with CMS. Ivan studies Business IT & Management at Hogeschool Rotterdam, where this exact discipline — connecting business operations to working software — is the core of the program.
The background matters because automation work fails when it is treated as only code. The useful part is understanding how teams actually move data, make decisions, approve work, and recover when something goes wrong.
The aim is simple: fewer fragile manual steps, clearer systems, and web tools that make the business easier to operate.
