Custom SaaS Development

A well-scoped MVP with core features, auth, billing, and basic admin usually takes 10-14 weeks. We spend the first two weeks on architecture and design before writing production code, which prevents expensive rewrites later. The timeline depends heavily on the complexity of your domain logic and the number of third-party integrations required.

Yes. We regularly take over codebases from previous teams or in-house developers. We start with a thorough code audit to assess architecture quality, test coverage, and technical debt. From there we create a prioritized plan that balances feature development with the refactoring necessary to unblock future growth.

We default to AWS for most SaaS products because of its breadth of managed services, mature multi-region support, and enterprise compliance certifications. That said, we have deployed successfully on GCP, Azure, and Railway. We choose based on your team's existing expertise, compliance requirements, and budget constraints.

We implement row-level security in PostgreSQL with tenant-scoped access policies, ensuring data isolation at the database level rather than relying solely on application logic. This approach scales cleanly, passes enterprise security audits, and allows us to offer dedicated database instances for high-value customers without rewriting the application layer.

Yes. Most of our SaaS clients retain us on a monthly basis for feature development, infrastructure management, and performance optimization after launch. We offer flexible retainer arrangements that scale with your needs, and we can also train your in-house team to take over the codebase with full documentation and knowledge transfer sessions.

Security is built into our architecture from day one, not retrofitted before an audit. We implement encrypted data storage, role-based access control, comprehensive audit logging, and data residency controls as part of the core platform. For SOC 2 and GDPR specifically, we build automated data export and deletion workflows, consent management, and immutable audit trails. Our clients have passed enterprise security reviews from Fortune 500 companies using the infrastructure we built.

A focused MVP that covers architecture, design, core features, billing, and production deployment typically lands in the €60,000–€120,000 range. A scaled v1 with multi-tenancy, advanced integrations, and enterprise-grade observability runs €150,000–€300,000. Full multi-product SaaS platforms with multiple modules and team-expansion engagements start at €350,000 and scale from there. We provide fixed pricing per phase after a paid discovery sprint, so there are no surprise invoices and you always know what each stage costs before it starts.

A complete engagement covers product strategy, system architecture, UX and UI design, full-stack engineering, infrastructure setup, security review, analytics instrumentation, and the first 30 days of post-launch hypercare. You also receive full documentation, infrastructure handover materials, and a runbook covering deployment, monitoring, and incident response: everything a future team would need to operate the platform without us. Nothing is held back as an upsell after launch.

You own everything (source code, infrastructure accounts, design files, documentation, and all intellectual property) from day one. Code is committed to your GitHub or GitLab organization, not ours. Cloud accounts on AWS, GCP, or Azure are created in your name with your billing. We hold no rights to your data or product, and our contracts are explicit about this. Premium studio standards mean zero vendor lock-in and zero ambiguity around ownership.

A custom SaaS development company designs, builds, and scales the technical product that founders, CTOs, or internal teams cannot deliver fast enough alone. That includes the architecture decisions that determine whether the product can reach ten thousand paying customers without a rewrite, the multi-tenancy and billing systems that enterprise buyers expect, and the engineering velocity that turns a roadmap into shipped software. We operate as your senior engineering team, not a code outsourcing shop.

Buy when the workflow is generic (accounting, CRM, helpdesk) and a mature category leader already solves it well. Build custom when the workflow is your competitive advantage, when no off-the-shelf product fits your data model, when integration costs exceed the tool itself, or when per-seat pricing breaks down at your scale. The decision is rarely about features. It is about whether the workflow is core to how you win, and whether you can afford to wait for a vendor's roadmap to catch up to your business.

In-house wins when you already have an experienced engineering manager in place, a 12+ month runway for hiring and ramp-up, and a roadmap that shifts week by week based on user feedback. An agency wins when you need to ship inside a fixed window, when the senior engineering talent you need would take 6–9 months to hire, or when your team is strong on domain but light on infrastructure, design, or architecture. Many of our clients use us to ship v1 quickly and then transition us into a coaching role as their internal team grows around the codebase we delivered.
