all under one roof

An advisory-led practice for South African businesses. It starts with a conversation about where you're going — then the software gets built and the books get kept to match.

What's on offer — and why it works together

Start here No. 1

Consulting

Every engagement starts with advice. Before a line of code is written or a return is filed, we work out what the business actually needs — then the other two services carry it out. Practical, numbers-first consulting for owners who want a plan they can act on Monday morning.

  • Business & entity structuring
  • Systems & software advisory
  • Process automation & AI adoption
  • Pricing, margins & management accounts
  • Growth & succession planning
  • A second opinion before the big decision

From the workshop

The camping app

field-tested, not focus-grouped

The latest build out of the practice: a camping companion made for the way South Africans actually get outdoors — planned around load-shedding, long gravel roads and places with no signal.

Trip planning, packing checklists and campsite notes that work offline first, built natively in Swift. Designed at the same desk where the tax returns get done — and tested where they don't.

Jerim codepoet

partners in code

Some projects are a two-hander. Bigger development and design work is delivered together with codepoet — a working partnership across code, design and brand.

The service promise

Old-fashioned standards, modern tools

One point of contact

The person you brief is the person who does the work. Nothing gets lost between departments — there aren't any.

Your data stays yours

Client information is kept off unnecessary third-party platforms. Privacy by design, not by policy document.

Plain language

Tax, systems and strategy explained in words you can repeat to your bank manager without a translator.

Agreed scope

Clear deliverables and fees set up front. If something changes, you hear about it before it costs you.

The practice

An adviser who builds his own tools

Jerim.co.za is the practice of Jerim — a Cape Town-based consultant, developer and accounting professional. By day the work runs through strategy sessions, trial balances, VAT returns and CIPC filings. The rest of the time goes into software: reporting tools, automation pipelines, privacy-first AI systems — and the occasional camping app.

The result is a practice that treats a messy business, a messy process and a messy ledger the same way: find where it doesn't balance, and fix it.
