Custom Software Development
We build production-grade web applications from scratch: custom backend APIs, modern frontend frameworks, and infrastructure designed to scale. Tech stack agnostic, we align with your existing systems or build greenfield. Every project includes enterprise-grade security, authentication, and hosting management.
Why it matters
Traditional custom software takes 6–12 months and costs $100k–500k before you know whether the product works. Off-the-shelf platforms promise speed but collapse under real-world complexity. The answer is a tailored approach led by a senior architect who builds exactly what you need, nothing more, nothing less.
The solution
We build custom backends handling database operations, authentication, business logic, and API management. The frontend is built using modern frameworks with performance optimisation. We are tech stack agnostic: we can align with your existing architecture or build greenfield with the right tools for your requirements. Every project starts with a 2-week scope sprint that produces a working prototype.
Results
Recent builds have delivered production MVPs in 4–6 weeks at 30–50% of the cost of equivalent traditional builds. One client's platform now handles 50k+ monthly active users on infrastructure that costs under $500/month to operate.
Best for
- Businesses needing a web application or internal tool built in weeks, not months
- Startups validating a product concept before committing to a full engineering team
- Companies with existing platforms hitting scalability limits
- Organisations wanting API-first architecture that integrates with their existing stack
Not for
- Businesses needing native iOS/Android apps (we build web-first, not mobile-native)
- Companies wanting to hire a permanent dev team (we build and hand off, or maintain)
- Enterprise with existing engineering capacity and established architecture
Frequently Asked Questions
We are tech stack agnostic. We select the right tools for each project: Node.js, Python, or Go for backends; React, Next.js, or Vue for frontends; PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or your existing database. We build custom APIs and endpoints that integrate with whatever systems you already have.
Yes. Our architecture supports horizontal scaling, caching, and CDN delivery. We manage hosting and infrastructure so you don't have to. Clients have grown from MVP to 50k+ monthly users without re-architecting.
We offer ongoing support retainers for maintenance, feature development, performance monitoring, and hosting management. We also provide handoff documentation and training if you want to bring development in-house.
2-week scope sprint produces a working prototype. Full MVP delivery takes 4–8 weeks. Complex platforms with multiple user roles and integrations take 8–12 weeks.
MVPs range from A$15,000–$40,000. Full platform builds range from A$40,000–$100,000. Ongoing support and hosting starts at A$3,000/month. All projects start with a fixed-price scope sprint.
