Blacksmiths Technology is a UK property technology company that has been building bespoke digital solutions for estate agents, lettings agencies, and property developers since 2008. Their flagship product Finch delivers smart forms, digital ID, e-signing, and Open Banking payments - while the broader Blacksmiths team builds custom solutions for the specific workflow challenges that standard products cannot solve.
Every estate agency has processes that do not fit neatly into the modules of an off-the-shelf CRM or digital tool. Blacksmiths Technology works with agencies that have identified specific workflow problems - and builds the digital solutions that solve them properly.
Blacksmiths Technology builds custom digital onboarding workflows for estate agencies - combining e-signing, ID collection, data capture, and payment in a single branded experience specific to your agency's process.
Blacksmiths Technology builds custom API integrations between property software systems that do not have off-the-shelf connectors. If data needs to flow between two systems, Blacksmiths can build the bridge.
Blacksmiths' no-code and bespoke build capability means you are not limited to what existing products support. If your process needs a digital equivalent, Blacksmiths Technology can build it.
Blacksmiths Technology audits existing digital workflows and builds the missing pieces - whether that is an AML check integration, a secure document exchange process, or an automated compliance trigger.
Blacksmiths Technology combines a flagship product (Finch) with bespoke development capability - giving estate agencies both proven tools and the ability to build what does not yet exist.
Finch is Blacksmiths' flagship product - a smart forms and contracts platform for UK property businesses combining e-signing, digital ID, Open Banking payments, and AML compliance in one workflow. Reduces transaction times by up to 59%.
Blacksmiths Technology builds custom API integrations between property software systems - CRMs, portals, compliance tools, and third-party services. Data flows where it needs to without manual re-entry.
Complex property workflows that no standard product supports can be built from scratch by the Blacksmiths development team. The no-code platform accelerates delivery; the bespoke capability removes limits.
Remote ID collection with AI-verified selfie matching, AML checks, and secure bank detail change workflows - all built on the Finch platform and available as standalone solutions or integrated into bespoke workflows.
Collect bank transfer payments from clients using Open Banking - up to 80% cheaper than card processing. Available as a component of Finch or integrated into custom digital workflows.
Blacksmiths Technology provides consultancy for estate agencies and property businesses that want to understand their digital options before committing to a build. The team has 15+ years of UK property technology experience.
Blacksmiths Technology starts with understanding the problem, not selling a solution. Most engagements begin with a workflow audit or product demonstration.
The Blacksmiths team reviews your specific workflow challenge - paper-based processes, system integration gaps, compliance bottlenecks - and maps the digital solution requirements.
A solution is designed that addresses the specific problem - whether that is a Finch implementation, a custom API integration, or a bespoke workflow build. Scope, timeline, and commercial structure are defined.
The Blacksmiths technical team builds the solution. Finch implementations typically take days. Custom builds are scoped individually. Integration with your existing systems is handled by the technical team.
The solution is tested with your team before full client rollout. Training is provided for the specific workflows being implemented.
Blacksmiths provides ongoing support and iterative development as your workflows evolve. The relationship is designed to be long-term - as property technology requirements change, the solutions evolve with them.
Blacksmiths Technology works with estate agencies of all sizes. Kerfuffle members get a direct conversation with the team that has been solving property-specific technology problems since 2008.

A practical demonstration of Finch smart forms and contracts, plus a conversation about bespoke build capability for workflows that no standard product supports.
Blacksmiths Technology built a custom onboarding workflow for our agency that combined our specific terms of business, our AML check process, and our payment collection into a single client-facing journey. It took two weeks to build and has saved our onboarding team hours every week since launch.Operations Director, lettings agency London
