Microcelium

Stop rebuilding the foundations. Start building what matters.

Your project gets a head start

Every software project needs the same foundations: user management, access controls, data pipelines, system integrations, observability and infrastructure. Building those from scratch every time is expensive and slow. We know, because we used to do it.

Microcelium is what happened when we stopped rebuilding the same foundations and started refining them. A library of production-tested components, born from real projects, improved across dozens more. Every component has been tested and refined across real projects, handling real data, under real pressure.

Your project runs on proven, pre-built components that are already tested in the real world. Your budget goes into the things that set your business apart.

Think of it like building a house: we provide the foundations, the building fabric, the electrics, plumbing and structural engineering. You choose the layout, the finishes and everything that makes it yours.

What's already built

Customer portals Authentication, dashboards, account management, ticketing and invoicing: your users get a polished experience out of the box

Backend services The engine behind your application: authentication, role-based access control, data processing and the business logic that ties it all together

Data processing Pull in data from anywhere — spreadsheets, other systems, sensors — clean it, organise it and put it where it needs to go

Business automation Repetitive tasks handled automatically — approvals, notifications, scheduling, reporting — so your team focuses on the work that matters

Built-in intelligence

AI that works for you Document analysis, smart search, content generation and decision support — practical AI woven into your workflows, not added as an afterthought

Intelligent agents Software that acts on your behalf — monitoring systems, responding to events and handling routine decisions without human intervention

Proven infrastructure Containerised services, CI/CD pipelines and observability: configured and managed so you never have to think about it

Start from zero or build on what you have

Don't have accounting, payments, CRM or messaging in place? Microcelium provides them. Already using tools your team relies on? We integrate cleanly. Want to consolidate suppliers onto one platform? Microcelium's modules cover the same ground, so you can lift the lot across when you're ready. Either way, your business logic stays yours. If you change providers tomorrow, nothing breaks.

Systems that talk to each other When something happens in one system — a sale, a booking, an alert — the rest of your tools know about it automatically

Scales without drama Start small and grow. The platform handles increased users, data and complexity, without needing to be rebuilt

Nothing proprietary No vendor lock-in. Every integration uses open standards. If you want to move, you take everything with you

Full observability 24/7 monitoring, logging and alerting built in. If something goes wrong, we know before you do

Secure from the start

Security isn't something we add at the end. Every Microcelium component is built with encryption, access controls and audit trails from day one. We're ISO 27001 certified, the international standard for information security, the same framework used by banks and government agencies.

Data protection Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Access is controlled so the right people have access to the right things.

Audit trails Every action is logged. When auditors or regulators ask "who did what, when?", you have the answer instantly.

Secrets management Credentials managed securely and rotated automatically. No passwords in spreadsheets and no shared logins.

Continuous checking Automated security scans run constantly, catching vulnerabilities before they become problems.

Your processes, automated properly

Every business has processes: bookings, payments, staff allocation, customer communications. Microcelium automates them so they run consistently, every time. Not "AI magic". Documented, testable automation that your team can understand and your auditors can verify.

Need to switch from Xero to another accounting tool? Move from Stripe to a different payment processor? The connections are designed to be swapped without rebuilding your system. Because the one thing worse than manual processes is automated ones you can't change.

Frequently asked questions

Doesn't using Microcelium create vendor lock-in?

No. You own everything we build for you — your code, your data, your infrastructure. Microcelium uses open standards throughout, with no proprietary frameworks or closed formats. If you want to take it in-house or move to another provider, everything is yours. We don't create lock-in because we don't need to — clients stay because the work is good, not because they're trapped.

Do I own the code that Microcelium generates for my project?

Yes. You own everything we build for you — your code, your data, your infrastructure. There's no vendor lock-in. If you want to take it in-house or move to another provider, everything is yours. Microcelium uses open standards throughout.

Can Microcelium integrate with tools we already use?

Yes — and we work both ways. If you already use accounting, CRM, payment or messaging tools your team relies on, we integrate with them rather than replacing them. If you'd rather consolidate, Microcelium ships native modules for the same surface so you can run accounting, CRM, payments and messaging on one platform. Either way, the connections are swap-able without rebuilding your system if your tools change later.

How does Microcelium handle security?

Security is built into every component from day one — encryption at rest and in transit, role-based access controls, audit trails, secrets management and automated security scanning. The entire platform is covered by our ISO 27001 certification.

Start with a head start

We don't start from scratch. We configure what already works, then focus on building the things that set your business apart.
