Code Sense Studio is a software studio in Lisbon. We build for small businesses and product teams, and run products of our own, like Ombar Suite.
Clients and collaborators in Portugal, Indonesia and Germany.
Code editor showing the studio as code: it builds web apps and internal tools with Next.js, NestJS and PostgreSQL, is based in Lisbon and works with clients in Portugal, Indonesia and Germany; every project gets a demo first, then the build. A terminal then deploys Ombar: live with 2 dive shops and about 2,000 bookings a month.

Clear steps, so you know what happens after you book a call.
We talk about what you need and whether the studio is the right fit.
Before anyone commits, we build a small demo to check it is heading where you want.
Once the direction is right, we quote the project as a whole, with the scope written down.
Anything beyond the agreed scope is priced on its own, so there are no surprises on either side.
Code Sense Studio is a software studio based in Lisbon and registered in Estonia as Code Sense Studios OÜ. It is small on purpose: clients talk directly to the engineer building their product.
We work with clients and collaborators in Portugal, Indonesia and Germany, across the whole stack, from database design to the interface, with AI tools like Claude and Codex as part of the daily workflow.
The aim is simple: useful software for businesses of every size, built together with the people who will use it.

Joao is one of those rare developers who is as technically gifted as he is great to be around. On our Crop Controller project, he was lightning-fast and consistently ahead of the game. I quickly learned I could trust him with total autonomy over UI decisions, and he never let me down. He has a real knack for looking at a requirement and spotting how it might need to evolve, ensuring his solutions are truly built to last. More than just his skills, though, it's Joao's heart and hustle that make the difference. He's incredibly committed, has a stellar work ethic, and his happy, team-first attitude made every sprint better. Any team would be lucky to have him.
