The company behind the products

Different problems.
The same standard.

Smiling Plug LLC develops and operates its own software products. Each serves a different audience, with one shared aim: make useful things easier to do.

Our approach starts with the task in front of you. Remove unnecessary steps, make information clear, and let the software handle the repetition.

Our design principles
  • Do it once.Information should carry forward. A detail you have already entered should not become another task.
  • Make the next step clear.Useful information belongs where you make the decision, with limitations explained plainly.
  • Keep your business at the centre.Business tools should support your customer relationships and the way you work.
  • Respect your choices.Clear terms, straightforward controls and no manufactured urgency.
