Lalabase was not drawn up on a whiteboard. For fifteen years I ran my own client projects in CodebaseHQ: tickets, time entries, repositories, all in one place. The tool did its job, and I paid for it gladly.
The price was never my problem. Thirteen pounds a month at the start, twenty pounds at the end. My problem was that the product stopped moving while my work kept moving. I wanted to ask questions of my projects instead of searching five tools, and I wanted to know which jurisdiction my clients' data sits in.
At some point it was clear that I did not want to keep waiting for that. So I started building what I needed myself. My own fifteen years of data were the first migration Lalabase ever processed. The tool further down this page is exactly the one I moved myself with.
To check for yourself: the last entry on the CodebaseHQ product blog is dated 28 September 2020. The service is operated by Krystal Hosting Ltd. in London and billed in pounds sterling. These details are as of August 2026.
