Software
built for
everyone.

Common Ground Studios Ltd is a London-based UK software development and product studio. We design, build, and support accessible digital products for organisations across the UK. Alongside custom development, we develop and license our own platforms including Turf and Campsite.

From first brief to long-term support, we combine the rigour of enterprise-grade software development with the responsiveness of a team that genuinely invests in the outcomes of the people and organisations it serves.

Feature requests are scoped, developed, and deployed within 20 working days. A commitment that reflects the agility baked into how we work. Fast, flexible, and adaptive by design.

01
Accessibility First

Every product is designed for all users from day one. WCAG compliance is our baseline, not our ceiling.

02
20-Day Delivery

Feature requests scoped, built, and shipped within 20 working days. Agility is structural, not an exception.

03
True Partnership

We move at the pace our clients need. Invested in your outcomes, not just the deliverable.

04
Enterprise Grade

The rigour of enterprise-level development with the responsiveness of a lean, adaptive team.

05
Built to Last

Inclusive design creates better products for everyone. We build software that grows with your users.

Two apps.

Turf

When you go outside and move (running, walking, riding), you’re not only logging a workout. Your route fills in pieces of a map, like neighbourhoods or blocks you’ve touched, so progress feels visible and place-based instead of only a list of numbers.

It’s for people who want a bit of game and competition with their training: see how you rank, celebrate steady habits, and still keep the real win as showing up and moving. Less clinical tracker, more outdoor playground: the city or trail is the board; every outing can leave a mark you see next time you open the map.

01
Claim the map
Routes paint the ground you’ve covered (streets, blocks, patches of park), so your training has a shape on the world, not just digits on a dashboard.
02
Playful competition
See how you stack up against others on the board. Friendly ranking turns consistency into something you can compare and cheer, without forgetting that moving is what matters.
03
How it felt, honestly
Review a session, skim highlights after a workout, and on supported setups pull in other activities you’ve already done so your picture of the week stays truthful.
04
Still your coach
Under the map: summaries, trends, planning ahead, and settings to tune how much you share and how things look: personal training companion first, playground energy on top.

Campsite

Campsite is a private, branded digital HQ for one organisation’s staff: updates, schedules, and day-to-day admin together. A calm, focused workspace for internal communication and operations, for groups that have outgrown endless chats and scattered spreadsheets.

Common Ground Studios licenses it so each customer gets their own separate product: your branding and your own “camp-site” subdomain. It’s not a WhatsApp-style org-wide chat at the core, and not a shop or payment system: just comms, rotas, and org tools in one hub.

01
Broadcasts, not noise
Leaders send clear one-way updates to staff: structured announcements at the centre, so important news doesn’t get lost in endless group chat threads.
02
Rotas & calendars
Scheduling built in: who’s on, what’s on, and when, so people know shifts and key dates without digging through spreadsheets.
03
Staff perks (information, not checkout)
A sensible place to check and share staff discount and benefits information. We’re not processing payments here: just keeping perks visible and easy to find.
04
Org admin & platform support
Organisation admins run their own setup day to day. Behind that, the platform operator has a separate admin side to create and support each customer organisation: clean separation, less confusion.
