Software development in the Philippines.
16:3 Studio is an independent software studio based in Quezon City, Metro Manila. We build custom web apps, business systems, and dashboards for Philippine SMBs — the kind of software that’s too specific for off-the-shelf tools but too important to run on spreadsheets.
Custom systems built for how your business actually works.
Custom Web Applications
Full-stack web apps built with Next.js, TypeScript, and modern databases. From internal tools to customer-facing platforms.
Admin portals, client dashboards, booking systems
Business Management Systems
Replace your spreadsheets and manual processes with a real system — designed for how your business actually works.
Clinic systems, inventory tracking, HR tools
Payout & Commission Platforms
Automated payout systems with Stripe Connect integration. Multi-level commissions, agent management, real-time tracking.
Agent payouts, reseller commissions, sales incentives
CRM & Customer Portals
Custom CRMs and branded portals where your clients or resellers can log in, place orders, and track their accounts.

A software partner, not just a vendor.

Common questions about working with us.
How much does custom software cost in the Philippines?
Projects typically range from ₱50,000 to ₱150,000+ depending on scope and complexity. We provide a detailed quote after a free consultation — no surprises.
How long does it take to build?
Most projects launch within 2–4 weeks. We run weekly demo cycles so you see progress every Friday — no 3-month disappearing acts.
Do I own the code?
Yes. You own the full codebase. Everything is built on standard, open-source technology (Next.js, Supabase, Firebase) so there's zero vendor lock-in. Any developer can pick it up.
Can you work with clients outside Metro Manila?
Absolutely. Most of our work is done remotely. We've built systems for clients in the US, across the Philippines, and internationally.
What if I don't know what I need?
That's normal. We start with a Discovery Sprint — a short engagement to understand your business, map your workflows, and recommend the right solution before any code is written.
