WebNest · Small business incubator
Every small business needs a web to grow in.
WebNest is the CostusWorx small business incubator. We spin the web around your idea: the software, the hosting and the POPIA paperwork a young business needs, built on the same tools we use to run our own products. Four businesses are already flying.

How the nest works
From idea to a business that flies
A spider builds its web before it catches anything. We do the same for your business: the connections first, then the growth.
- 1
Hatch
Bring us the idea. We shape it into a first working product on proven CostusWorx building blocks, so you're not paying to reinvent logins, billing or reports.
- 2
Connect
We host it in South Africa, secure it, and wire it into the tools you already use: email, WhatsApp, payments and your accounting package.
- 3
Grow
Real users, real data. We support it, watch the numbers with you and keep it POPIA-compliant as it grows.
- 4
Fly
When you're ready, it's yours to scale, move or sell. No lock-in, and the code and data go with you.

Online ordering
Cakes by Des
Cakes baked to order. Customers pick their cakes and a delivery date online, Des confirms, and the payment link goes out on WhatsApp.
Pet treats
Doggie Treats by Des
Natural, handmade dog treats with an online shop, a loyalty club and a blog. Baked in Copperleaf, sold online.
Health · GLP-1
Steadily
A GLP-1 journey diary for patients, with a portal for their doctor. Personal health data, so POPIA was built in from the first line.
Why incubate with us
Built by people who've done it
A small business can't afford to learn the hard way. We already have.
Every business here is real
The businesses on this page take real orders from real customers. That's where we learned what a small business actually needs online, and what it doesn't.
You own what we build
Your domain, your data, your code. When you're ready to leave the nest, it all goes with you.
Compliance isn't an extra
POPIA notices, consent, secure hosting and backups are in from day one. You don't get a surprise bill for them later.
