Web-based calculators
Your methods turned into reliable online tools.
Wollopit for engineers
Engineers: calculators that write the report for you. Inputs in, branded report out.
Calculations in spreadsheets only one person trusts and reports formatted by hand. We build engineering calculators and reporting tools that turn inputs into consistent, branded documents.
Looking for custom engineering calculators or report software?
Every engineering firm has spreadsheets that do the real work. They're powerful, fragile and hard to share. We turn them into proper web tools with version control, validation and automatic reports.
Wollopit builds project portals, compliance registers, quoting tools and websites for engineers around how your sites actually run. We connect the systems you already use, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so the office and the site finally see the same numbers.

What we hear from engineers
Does your engineering firm have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

05How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your engineering firm: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
06Questions
FAQ
Things engineers ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can you rebuild our existing spreadsheets exactly?
Yes. We start from your spreadsheets and check the new tool against them so the results match before anyone relies on it.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your engineering firm. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
Can it work alongside the software we already use?
Usually, yes. We connect to your accounting, project and rostering tools and only replace what's holding you back. If something should go we'll explain why before anything changes.
Will it work on site with bad reception?
Yes. Field tools can save everything on the device and sync when the phone finds signal again, so nobody loses a docket or a photo.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
