Turning a vibe-coded prototype into a system the whole company runs on
O3 was paying $35,000 a year for a resource planning platform that fit maybe 70 percent of how the business actually works. Here's how we replaced it with software we built ourselves, and what it took to make it production-ready.
Opportunity
A tool that did not fit how our business worked
O3XO runs under one roof with O3, a digital product consultancy: two lines of business, shared staff, and project-based resource planning. The company was paying $35,000 a year for a resource planning and finance platform built for none of that. The off-the-shelf tool we were using did not account for two business lines sharing people and reporting that leadership needs cut a specific way. That's the whole problem with off-the-shelf software: it's rarely built for one company’s exact situation.
The existing platform covered roughly 70% of what the team actually needed. The rest showed up as workarounds: spreadsheets on the side, manual exports, and paid-for features nobody touched. When leadership went line by line through software spend, resource planning stood out as the largest line item and the worst fit. A year earlier, the answer would have been to live with it. Custom software was too expensive to justify for an internal tool. AI-assisted development changed that math.
Solution
Meet Dialed: resource planning software built around exactly how the business runs
Dialed is O3XO's resource planning and financial operations app, built on Lovable. It includes Slack integration for team allocations, financial planning reports for utilization and forecasting, and direct integrations with Harvest, HubSpot, and Bamboo, so time, pipeline, and people data flow without manual exports. It has the workflows the team actually uses, built the way the team uses them, and nothing beyond that. No extra modules, no bloated features, no forcing internal process through someone else's product logic.
Getting a working prototype out of Lovable took roughly 527 prompts, $127 in AI credits, and less than 40 hours. But a working demo isn't a system a company runs its finances on. O3 built an enterprise-ready security and deployment framework specifically for taking Lovable apps from vibe-coded prototype to production-ready product: security review, access controls, data handling, deployment pipelines, and monitoring. Dialed went through that process before the business relied on it, and the framework is now repeatable, both for future internal builds and for client engagements.
