Atlassian Apps That Fit Your Processes, Not the Other Way Around

We design and build custom Forge apps when standard Jira and Confluence features — or existing Marketplace apps — don’t fully support your use cases. A rough idea is enough. We’ll help you shape it.

When standard apps aren't enough

Organizations often reach a point where standard tools fall short. That’s when a custom Forge app becomes the most sustainable solution.

Missing functionality

Required functionality doesn’t exist in Jira or Confluence — and no Marketplace app covers it either.

Partial match

Marketplace apps don’t fully match the use case, leaving gaps in your workflows.

Too specific for configuration

Processes are too specific to be solved with configuration alone — they need a tailored solution.

Migrating from Data Center to Cloud?

Some functionality that exists in Data Center has no direct equivalent in Atlassian Cloud:

  • User macros in Confluence that render dynamic or context-specific content
  • Script Runner scripts and Groovy-based customizations relying on server-side execution
  • Extended custom field types or field behaviors from Data Center apps
  • Process logic that was built around server access and can’t be replicated through configuration alone

A custom Forge app can replicate exactly the behavior you need — cloud-native, without external hosting, and ready to run from day one.

Custom apps for Jira & Confluence — built for the cloud

All apps are built using modern Atlassian Cloud technology and proven development practices. We deliver:

New custom apps

New custom apps for Atlassian Cloud built with Forge — designed around your exact requirements.

Extensions for existing apps

Extensions and new modules for existing Seibert apps that add the capabilities you need.

Private or public

Private apps for internal use or Marketplace-ready solutions — we support both paths.

Built for the long term

Apps designed for long-term maintainability and compliance.

Secure, compliant, and future-proof by design

We are recognized Forge and Runs on Atlassian experts and actively shape best practices in this space.

  • Apps run entirely on Atlassian’s cloud infrastructure
  • No external servers required
  • All data stays within the Atlassian ecosystem
  • Simplified compliance for security- and privacy-sensitive organizations

What customers build with custom Forge apps

  • Specialized Jira issue workflows and visualizations
  • Custom reporting and status views
  • Domain-specific data models and forms
  • Automation and UI extensions tightly embedded in Jira or Confluence

If your process feels “almost supported” by Jira or Confluence, a custom app often closes that final gap.

You get transparency, working increments, and a solution that fits your organization, not a black box. Our approach:

  • Discovery & clarification of requirements
  • Architecture and feasibility assessment

  • Delivery, rollout, and optional long-term support
