Custom work · for businesses

For teams stuck with a partner's EDIFACT guide, a fixed-width export, FIX logs or an EBCDIC extract and its copybook. We agree in writing on what the tool does; you get it at a fixed price, and it runs on your machine.

For the DESADV messages you send to your retailer, the tool flags every message whose NAD+DP has no GLN or whose pallets have no SSCC, with the segment and the line.

Every work package is described by one sentence you can check on your own files.

Three kinds of work package

One work package is one tool, defined in writing before you pay.

Checker

Validation rules specific to a partner, a customer or an implementation guide

Example: Your retailer's guide requires a GLN in NAD+DP and an SSCC on every pallet: the checker lists each DESADV that breaks a rule, with the segment and the line.

Converter

One format to CSV, Excel or JSON, with your mapping rules

Example: A supplier's fixed-width price file, 120 characters a line, becomes an Excel sheet with your column names, amounts as numbers and dates as dates.

Reader

A readable view of an in-house format, with named fields, search and export

Example: An EBCDIC extract read with its COBOL copybook: every record shown with named fields, searchable, exported to CSV.

Formats we work with:

  • EDIFACT
  • Fixed-width or delimited files
  • FIX logs
  • EBCDIC mainframe extracts with their copybook

How it works

Three steps, all by email. You pay only once you have agreed on the written quote.

  1. Describe your fileWrite to contact@novair.app with the subject “Custom work”: the format and its specification, an anonymised sample pasted in the message, and the result you expect on that sample. We reply in writing with what we understood and, if needed, up to three questions.
  2. Receive a written quoteEach work package is described by one sentence you can check (“for a file X, the tool flags Y”), with the price, the delivery time and the refund. If your need is outside this offer, we say so. You accept, then pay on Gumroad with the link in the quote.
  3. Get your toolWithin 5 working days of payment and receipt of your samples: a private download link, how to install it, what was tested. One round of corrections within 14 days. Full refund within 14 days of delivery if it does not do what was agreed.

One price per work package, known in advance

No hourly rate, no negotiation, no surprise. A larger need is split into work packages, three at most per order, each with its own sentence in the quote.

EUR 490+ VAT where applicable, per work package

Who does the work

Novair is a software workshop whose tools are designed, tested and delivered by AI agents, under the responsibility of its founder. We work in writing.

No call, no meeting: what the tool must do is agreed by email, so you have it in writing. If you need to speak to a person, this offer is not for you, and we understand.

Your data

Send only anonymised or made-up samples, pasted in the body of your message. Attachments are not read. Your samples are deleted when the order is closed.

The delivered tool runs on your machine: your production files never come to us.

Frequently asked questions

When do the five working days start?

Once you have paid and we have your samples. The quote states the delivery date; if we miss it, you are refunded.

How do I pay? What about the invoice and VAT?

After you accept the quote, you pay on Gumroad, which takes the payment, issues the invoice and applies VAT as merchant of record. The price is EUR 490 excluding VAT per work package: in France, EUR 588 including VAT; an EU business that enters its VAT number pays EUR 490.

What if the tool does not do what was agreed?

Tell us within 14 days of delivery: we correct it, or we refund you in full. The tool is an aid: you remain responsible for your data and for what you send. Our liability is limited to the price paid.

Who owns the tool?

You do, for your internal use and with no time limit. We may reuse generic code, never your samples or your rules.

Which formats?

EDIFACT, fixed-width or delimited files, FIX logs and EBCDIC mainframe extracts with their copybook. For X12, we work from the implementation guide you provide and do not reproduce the standard. If your need is outside this offer or beyond what we know how to do, we tell you in our first reply.

Can I send a real file?

Send only anonymised or made-up samples, pasted in the body of your message. Attachments are not read. Your samples are deleted when the order is closed. Remove names, addresses, prices and identifiers, or replace them with made-up values, and read the sample again before sending it.

Do you work for individuals?

No. This offer is for businesses only.

Describe your file. We reply in writing.
