Built around your problem
Every engagement starts with the specifics of your operation — your data, your constraints, your people — not a generic product roadmap. The result is software that fits, rather than a workflow bent to fit the software.
Black Dog Analytics builds custom software for organizations that need more than off-the-shelf tools can offer. We partner closely with each client to understand the problem, then design, build, and deliver software tailored precisely to how they actually work.
See our workEvery engagement starts with the specifics of your operation — your data, your constraints, your people — not a generic product roadmap. The result is software that fits, rather than a workflow bent to fit the software.
We turn messy real-world data into optimization models, clear visualizations, and forecasting tools your team can rely on — and we ship them as software you can actually use day to day.
We stay involved after launch: refining, extending, and supporting what we build so it keeps delivering value as your organization grows and changes.
A few examples of the bespoke tools we build for our partners.
Software that models ferry routes, schedules, and demand to find efficient operating plans — paired with clear, interactive visualizations that make the trade-offs easy for operators and stakeholders to understand.
A projection tool for service-dog training programs that forecasts outcomes and timelines across the training pipeline, helping organizations plan capacity and set realistic expectations for placements.
A milestone for us: RedactIt is the first piece of software we built for a single client and then released generally — because the problem it solved turned out to be a problem shared by an entire profession.
RedactIt lets lawyers take advantage of public AI tools without exposing client confidences. It detects and reversibly pseudonymizes the sensitive details in a legal document — names, parties, and identifiers — entirely on the user's own machine. The sanitized text can be shared with any online service, then the original information is restored locally in a single step. Built for one firm's confidentiality needs, it is now available to any practice with the same concern.
Have a problem that off-the-shelf software can't quite solve? We'd like to hear about it.
