SaaS Development

Building a software product is different from building a tool for one company. You need sign-ups, subscriptions, separate data for every customer, and an architecture that doesn’t fall over as you grow.

We help founders and companies take a SaaS idea from a first version to a product that real customers pay for.

Who we work with

• Founders building a first version (MVP) to test with customers
• Companies turning an internal tool into a product they can sell
• SaaS teams that need extra development capacity
• Products that need rebuilding because the first version can’t scale

What we build

• Sign-up, login, teams and permissions
• Subscription billing with Stripe or similar
• Multi-tenant architecture that keeps each customer’s data separate
• Customer dashboards and an internal admin panel
• APIs and integrations with the tools your customers use
• Hosting, backups and monitoring on AWS, Google Cloud or similar

How we build products

1. Narrow the first version. We help you decide what the MVP needs, and what can wait.
2. Get the foundation right. Data model, accounts and billing, done properly the first time, because they’re hard to change later.
3. Build in short cycles. Frequent demos, so you can show progress to users or investors.
4. Launch to real users. We deploy, set up monitoring and fix issues as the first customers arrive.
5. Keep improving. Optional ongoing development as feedback comes in.

What you own

The full source code in your repository, cloud accounts in your name, technical documentation, and a deployment setup another developer could pick up.

Technology

Typically React or Next.js on the front end; Node.js, Laravel or Python on the back end; PostgreSQL; and Stripe for billing, hosted on AWS, Google Cloud or DigitalOcean.

Cost and timeline

SaaS builds are quoted in phases, usually starting with the first version. Cloud hosting and third-party services are billed to you by those providers. Your timeline is set out in the written proposal after a free scope review. See how we price projects and our payment terms.

Good to know

We build the product. Market validation, pricing and sales stay with you, although we’re happy to share what we see. We can’t guarantee a product’s commercial success.

Questions we often get

Can you build an MVP quickly?

We can keep the first version small so it launches sooner. How soon depends on the features you choose.

Will I own the code?

Yes. Once the project is paid in full, the custom code is yours, and it lives in your repository.

Can you take over an existing product?

Often, yes. We start with a code review so we both know what we’re working with.

Will you keep my idea confidential?

Yes. Confidentiality is part of our Terms. If you need a separate NDA, send it over and we’ll review it.
