Your FileMaker solution is probably fine. Its interface isn’t. We build the fast, modern layer your team stares at all day.
Your system works. That’s exactly why nobody fixed the interface.
Your system works. Your data is fine. What’s not fine is the layer your team stares at eight hours a day. Most FileMaker solutions still look and feel like the year they were built.
It looks like 2009
Grey gradients, beveled buttons, cramped system fonts. Your team notices, even if nobody says it out loud.
Every click waits
Layout switches and full refreshes, dozens of times an hour. That waiting quietly adds up to real hours.
New people get lost
If a screen needs training to find, the interface is doing the training’s job — and doing it badly.
Everything on one screen
Forms and portals crammed into one dense view, because adding screens used to be painful.
Nothing works like the web
Your team lives in modern apps all day. Then they open FileMaker and travel back a decade.
Friction compounds
One extra click is nothing. A thousand a week, per person, is a hiring decision.
No rebuild. We work on what you already have.
We put a fast, modern interface on top of the FileMaker solution you already run. Some backend work always comes with it — a screen has to fetch its data somehow — but we touch only what that screen needs. That is why it lands in weeks instead of the year a rebuild costs.
A modern UI on your existing solution
A web-grade interface, layered over the FileMaker you already own.
Up to 4× faster in daily use
Fewer reloads, no layout roulette, navigation that keeps up with your team.
Native WebViewer technology
HTML, CSS, and JavaScript running inside FileMaker, not beside it.
The screens that matter, rebuilt
The dashboards, portals, and forms your team actually touches every day.
Your data stays your data
We connect to your current tables, fields, and scripts. No copies, no migration.
No rebuild, no rip-out
Your investment stands. We change the layer holding it back, and only the backend that layer actually needs.
One screen, rebuilt.
Drag the handle. On the left, a FileMaker layout of the kind I get sent most weeks. On the right, the same job done as an interface layer. Both panes are demonstrations built for this page, not a client file.

Speed is the whole point.
Most “FileMaker is slow” complaints aren’t about the database. They’re about layout switching and full-screen redraws. Remove those, and the whole system feels new.
This is the top of the range, not the average. Navigation-heavy solutions gain the most. I measure yours before I put a number in a quote.
The difference, side by side.
- Grey, dated, something you apologise for
- Layout switch on every action
- Full-screen refreshes
- Training required to find things
- Clean, web-grade interface
- Instant, in-place navigation
- Smooth, partial updates
- Obvious from the first click
What we take on.
From one stubborn screen to the entire interface, plus the backend work those screens need.
FileMaker UI Modernization
Dated layouts rebuilt as clean, fast, web-grade interfaces, screen by screen.
WebViewer Interface Development
Rich HTML/JS interfaces running natively inside your FileMaker windows.
Dashboard Design
Live KPIs, charts, and overviews your team reads without being asked to.
Performance Improvements
We hunt down the redraws and round-trips that make a solid solution feel slow.
Workflow Optimization
Fewer clicks, fewer screens, faster paths through the work that repeats every day.
Custom Business App Interfaces
Bespoke front-ends built around the data and rules you already trust.
What it costs, before you ask.
Fixed prices per scope, so you know where you stand before we start. All amounts exclude VAT.

Smaller jobs and ad-hoc work: €110 per hour, €880 per day. The week counts above are lead times, not billed days. The free preview costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
Four steps. No drama.
A clear path from the interface you have to one your team stops complaining about.
Analyze
We go through your solution screen by screen and find where the time actually goes.
Design
You get a working concept for your most-used screen, not a mood board.
Build
We build the new layer on your live data structure, behind your existing security.
Launch
Your team switches over. The old layouts stay as a safety net until you delete them yourself.
One point of contact. Four developers.
I am Duncan Muller, owner of FMHyper. My background is in web design and backend systems, including experience at Google. For fifteen years I have designed and built FileMaker solutions, from data models and scripts to portals, dashboards and interfaces.
I remain your point of contact: I discuss your request, prepare the quote and keep you informed. Delivery is handled by a team of four developers, so knowledge is shared and progress never depends on one person’s calendar.
Duncan is highly professional and a true team player. He first investigates what is actually needed and where the greatest gains can be made. He then delivers a future-proof solution.
What people ask me first.
What people ask me before we start. Short answers, no sales voice.
Do we have to rebuild our whole solution?
Will it work with our FileMaker Server?
Is our data safe? Does anything leave FileMaker?
Does the 4× speed claim apply to every solution?
Does it work on mobile and WebDirect?
Watch your project happen.
Every client gets a private portal: live progress, milestones, and a screenshot with every update. No “where are we?” emails. You already know.
See it on your own layout.
Send one screenshot of a screen your team uses every day. Within two working days you get back a preview of that same screen, rebuilt from your own layout, with what it would cost and how long it would take. Free, and nothing is expected of you afterwards.
