Our story
MakeProps was born from a passion.
Théo Balzeau's passion for software development. Since middle school every day has been spent building software or thinking about it.
In middle school
The first line of code
Théo discovers development by building the first piece of a social network. The passion takes hold.
In high school
MakeSense
He creates MakeSense, a complete social network. The project doesn't make it but that's where his product design experience is built.
At university
Click and collect
Click and collect software for restaurants. That's where the method is forged. Deliver fast without sacrificing quality.

Solving a real problem

Today
Eight people and the same passion
A team of 8 people, recurring clients in France and Switzerland and a profitable company that grows every year.
Our foundations
What guides us every day.
Inventing, designing, building and serving. That's what we bring to every project.
A service mindset
We exist to serve our clients' ideas and ambitions. We listen, we immerse ourselves and we co-build as true technical partners.
Technical excellence
Expertise is not a sales pitch, it's a prerequisite. All our people are engineers. We design, we code, we are software architects.
Openness
Open to other tools, other languages, other ways of working and other industries. MakeProps works with everyone.
Focus on results
Our work must have a real impact. The client brings the purpose of the project and we bring the technical excellence to make it happen.
Continuous improvement
Every week the team improves the way it works to get better on deadlines and on the quality of what it delivers.
Technology within everyone's reach
We take the time to analyse and explain the technology so you can decide with full knowledge.
Our mission
Make custom software accessible to as many companies as possible.
Too many companies think custom software isn't for them. Too expensive, too complex, reserved for large groups. Our mission is to prove them wrong. We industrialise our methods so costs stay under control, deadlines are met and quality stays consistent.
Between two worlds. We are in the middle.
Large IT services firms
Expertise but time sold at a high price and layers of management between the client and the people who build.
Freelancers and small agencies
Close at hand but quickly limited when the need becomes complex.
MakeProps
The technical expertise of a large firm with the closeness, responsiveness and accessibility of a human-sized team. No middleman and no promises we can't keep.
The team
Architects and not just executors.
Expert engineers who design, code and maintain your software from Chambéry. The people who plan the architecture are the ones who write the code.
