We migrate FileMaker databases to custom Ruby on Rails web applications.
Keep your data. Keep your workflows. Lose the limitations.
Your FileMaker developer is the only person who understands the system. What happens when they leave?
Your team can't work remotely or access critical data on mobile. That's a dealbreaker.
Connecting FileMaker to your other tools requires expensive workarounds that break every update.
FileMaker Server licensing, per-user fees, and specialist developer rates keep climbing year after year.
Your data is locked inside FileMaker. On the modern web, you could chat with your data using ChatGPT or Claude and get instant answers.
Send us your FileMaker file and we'll analyze it quickly — tables, scripts, layouts, relationships, and business logic. You get a detailed migration plan and a fixed price.
We rebuild your application as a modern Ruby on Rails web app. Every feature mapped, every workflow preserved, every record migrated.
We run both systems in parallel so your team can validate everything. When you're confident, we cut over with zero downtime.
No. We migrate every record from your FileMaker database. We also validate the migrated data against the original to ensure nothing is lost or corrupted.
We provide a free estimate after reviewing your FileMaker application. Once we've scoped the work, you get a fixed price for the entire migration — no hourly billing, no surprises.
Yes. We build the new system alongside your existing one. Your team continues using FileMaker until the new app is fully tested and ready. We handle the final data sync at cutover.
We provide documentation and training for your team. We also offer optional ongoing support and maintenance if you want us to continue managing updates and improvements.
Rails is a proven framework used by companies like Shopify, GitHub, and Basecamp. It's ideal for business applications: fast to develop, easy to maintain, and backed by a massive ecosystem of libraries. Your FileMaker data model maps naturally to Rails' database layer.
