A UK software company that's been quietly good at this since 2009.
Imobisoft is a Coventry-based AI and software development company. We build bespoke business applications, AI workflows, and mobile apps for UK organisations from the NHS and GSK through to Sky, SABIC, and Dunelm. Founded in 2009 by two Coventry University graduates, we now run a team of engineers across Coventry and London delivering software that, in the words of one client, "just gets out of the way and works."
What we actually do
We build software that fits the way you actually work rather than asking you to re-shape your business around someone else's product. Most of our work falls into one of four categories:
Bespoke business applications
Custom CRMs, ERPs, internal portals, and operations platforms. The kind of system that replaces three SaaS subscriptions and a heroic spreadsheet.
AI & LLM development
Strategy, design, and deployment of AI workflows and large language model applications. We build agents that do the work, not chatbots that pretend to.
Mobile apps
Native iOS and Android apps, often paired with the backend systems that make them genuinely useful. Several of our apps are in daily use across the NHS.
System integrations
Making the tools you already have actually talk to each other. Less glamorous than greenfield builds, but often the highest-ROI work we do.
How we work, plainly
We're engineers first, salespeople a distant second
The first person you talk to on a project is someone who'll actually be building it. Discovery calls don't go through SDRs, they go through a senior engineer or solutions lead.
We tell you when we're not the right fit
We turn away more enquiries than we sign. Not because we're picky for sake of it but because nothing wastes more time than a project that shouldn't have started.
We're properly accredited, because regulated clients need that
Three years of consecutive ISO 27001. Cyber Essentials accredited. On the Crown Commercial Service supplier list. The certifications matter when your end users are the NHS or a FTSE 100.
We share the work as we go, not in a dramatic reveal
No six-month silence followed by a big presentation. You see what we're building each week, you give input, and the software arrives shaped by your actual feedback.
The short version of the story
Imobisoft was founded in 2009 by Atif Syed and Syed Byhaqi, who met at Coventry University. They started with a fairly straightforward thesis: small and mid-sized UK businesses needed bespoke software, but couldn't get a fair deal from the agencies of the time. So they built one.
The early years were spent in Tyseley,building software and websites for Midlands businesses. Reputation grew, the team grew, and in time we moved to the Coventry Innovation Park putting us at the centre of the region's technology ecosystem.
In 2019, Perninder Dhadwar, formerly COO of London digital agency Dare joined as Managing Partner with the goal of making Imobisoft the Midlands' leading software development partner for SMEs and mid-market firms. The investment paid off. Through the pandemic and beyond, our team expanded relationships with the NHS, GSK, Northern Gas Networks, and dozens of other organisations across the UK.
We've kept doing one thing throughout: helping organisations realise their potential through software that actually fits. The technology has changed. The mission, genuinely, hasn't.

Things people often want to know
What does Imobisoft actually do?
Imobisoft is a UK-based AI and software development company. We build bespoke business applications, AI workflows, mobile apps, and system integrations for organisations across the public and private sectors. Most projects fall in the £20,000–£300,000 range with delivery timelines of 4–16 weeks.
Where is Imobisoft based?
Our headquarters is in Coventry, at the University Technology Park (CV1 2TT). We have a London presence and remote engineering capability. We deliver work nationwide and have completed projects for clients across England, Scotland, and Wales.
When was Imobisoft founded?
Imobisoft was founded in 2009 by Atif Syed and Syed Byhaqi, two Coventry University Computer Science graduates. The company is registered as Imobisoft Ltd (Companies House number 06811978).
What kinds of clients does Imobisoft work with?
Notable clients include the NHS, GSK, Sky, SABIC, Dunelm, Hochschild Mining, Northern Gas Networks, BBC, Coventry University, and Keele University. Most clients are UK-based mid-market firms or enterprises in regulated sectors (healthcare, energy, utilities, financial services). We also work with public-sector organisations via the Crown Commercial Service supplier framework.
Is Imobisoft accredited for security and compliance?
Yes. We are ISO 27001 certified (three consecutive years), Cyber Essentials accredited, and listed as a Crown Commercial Service Supplier. We were named a Top AI Deployment Company in the UK 2024 by Clutch and Top Umbraco Development Company UK 2024 by Clutch.
What technologies does Imobisoft work with?
We work with modern stacks including .NET, MS SQL,TypeScript, Next.js, Node.js, Python (FastAPI), PostgreSQL, Redis, and major cloud providers (AWS, Azure). For AI work we build with Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, and open-source models. For mobile we develop natively for iOS and Android. For enterprise CMS we have particular depth in Umbraco. We are technology-agnostic, we choose the right stack for the problem rather than the other way round.
How does Imobisoft compare to off-the-shelf SaaS?
The trade-off is straightforward: SaaS gives you something usable on day one, but locks you into ongoing per-seat fees and a feature roadmap controlled by someone else. Bespoke software requires an upfront investment but you own it outright. With AI-assisted development our build costs and timelines have come down dramatically over the past 18 months. Most clients who switch from SaaS to bespoke save £30,000–£60,000 per year, with payback inside year one.
How do I get in touch?
Contact us at info@imobisoft.co.uk or call +44 24 7615 8240. The fastest way is the contact form on our site — we reply within 4 working hours during the UK working week, usually quicker.
Got something you want to build?
A 30-minute discovery call usually tells both of us whether we're a fit. If we are, brilliant. If not, we'll point you somewhere better.
