Software that keeps running when no one's watching it.

AKME builds point-of-sale software for restaurants and cafés, and learning platforms for schools and training providers — plus the identity infrastructure that holds them together. VHF/UHF radio-to-IP links, for the sites that need one.

Four disciplines, one standard: it has to work unattended

Everything below is built on open, well-understood technology rather than closed platforms — so you're never locked out of your own system, and nothing depends on a subscription you don't control.

FRONT OF HOUSE

Point-of-sale for restaurants & cafés

Order-taking, billing, kitchen tickets and daily sales reporting, configured to match how your floor actually runs. Works through short internet outages and syncs once back online; receipt and kitchen printers set up and staff trained on-site.

deployment window: 3–7 days · on-site support included

PLATFORMS

Websites & learning management systems

Moodle-based LMS builds with the advanced features most agencies skip — custom gradebooks, cohorts, reporting — for schools and training providers. For businesses that just need a straightforward web presence, simple WordPress sites, built and handed over ready to edit.

platform: Moodle, WordPress · content structure planned before build

INFRASTRUCTURE

Local identity & vault infrastructure

A self-hosted Authentik server so logins across your tools run on infrastructure you control, not a third party's. Paired with a self-hosted password vault (Bitwarden/Vaultwarden) so credentials for the business stay in one place, backed up, and off other people's servers.

self-hosted · no third-party identity dependency

ALSO AVAILABLE

Radio-to-IP networking

For sites with no fibre and weak cellular coverage: bringing VHF/UHF radio systems onto shared internet infrastructure, so a remote location still stays on the network.

bands: VHF / UHF · scope assessed per site

How a project runs

The same five steps whether it's a single café till or a multi-site radio link.

01

Site visit & discovery

We look at how the space or the site actually operates before proposing anything — floor flow for a café, terrain and coverage for a radio link.

02

System design

A written plan covering hardware, software, and what happens if the internet or power drops — before anything is bought or installed.

03

Build & configure

Software configured and tested off-site first, so installation day is short.

04

On-site deployment

Hardware installed, staff or operators walked through it directly, not left with a manual.

05

Ongoing support

A direct line back to whoever built the system — no ticket queue.

Why work with AKME

Small enough to answer the phone yourself, technical enough to build both software and RF systems in-house.

Built and run locally

Every deployment has been set up and supported on-site, not shipped as a box you configure yourself.

No vendor lock-in

Systems are built on open, standard technology. Your data and your hardware stay yours.

One point of contact

The person who designs the system is the same person who answers when something needs fixing.

Tell us what you're running, or what you want to run.

A new café till, a school LMS rollout, an identity server for the business — happy to have a look and tell you honestly whether it's a good fit.
