Our origin story

We started Softonics after too many good ideas got flattened into the same five website templates.

The internet is full of polished surfaces. We wanted to make spaces with a little more grain: spaces where the people behind a business could be felt, not just their value proposition. So that is what we do, one collaboration at a time.

Based between Manchester, Bristol and wherever the good Wi-Fi is.

Small by design. Curious by nature.

A humanity statement

Technology can make things faster. It cannot decide what matters. That bit still belongs to us: the odd questions, the quiet observations, the care we take when nobody is looking. We believe the best digital experiences leave room for a person to recognise themselves in them. So we listen closely, make deliberately and keep the edges a little human.
