Take the thing you do well and make it a product other people pay for
Most SaaS products start as an internal tool that turned out to be better than what the market sells. We build the version other businesses can subscribe to — multi-tenant, billed, and able to survive its second hundred customers.
This is for you if:
- You built something internally and customers keep asking to use it.
- You are paying per-seat for software that does 20% of what you need.
- You have a validated idea and need a first release that is not a prototype.
- An existing product works but cannot take on more customers without falling over.
What You Actually Get
Scoped to a first release you can actually sell, then extended once real customers tell you what matters.
Multi-Tenant Architecture
Data separated per customer from the first commit. Retrofitting tenancy later is the single most expensive rebuild in this category.
Subscription Billing
Plans, trials, upgrades, failed-payment handling and dunning on Stripe or Paddle, including the tax handling your market needs.
Accounts, Roles & Teams
Sign-up, invitations, role-based permissions and SSO where enterprise buyers will ask for it.
Usage Metering
What each account consumes, exposed to them and to you, so pricing can be based on evidence instead of a guess.
Security Baseline
Encryption at rest and in transit, audit logging, scoped API tokens and a documented backup and restore you have seen tested.
Deploy Pipeline
Staging, automated tests and one-command deploys, so shipping a fix does not require us.
What A Build Like This Involves
An illustration of scope and sequence, not a client project. Real timelines move with the specifics, and the proposal you get would be costed against yours.
A recruitment firm has spent years refining a spreadsheet-and-scripts process for screening applicants, and three competitors have asked to license it. The task is turning an internal tool into something a stranger can sign up for and trust with their data.
Weeks 1–2 · Scope and architecture
Decide what makes the first paid release and what waits. Model tenancy, roles and the data boundaries between customers. Choose the billing provider on the tax rules of the markets being sold into, because that is harder to change later than the code.
Weeks 3–7 · Core build
Accounts, invitations and permissions. The screening engine itself, ported from scripts into something with tests around it. Subscription plans with a trial, upgrade path and failed-payment handling. An admin view for the operator.
Weeks 8–9 · Hardening
Load testing against a realistic number of tenants. Audit logging, backup and a restore actually performed rather than assumed. Rate limiting on the API, and the security review a first enterprise buyer will run.
Weeks 10–11 · Launch
Onboarding flow, documentation, and a support inbox wired to a real person. Deploy pipeline handed over with staging, so the team ships fixes without us.
About eleven weeks to a release you can charge for
Other Work Under Business Automation
Automation compounds. One workflow saves hours; connecting it to the CRM and the routing rules is where the week comes back.
SaaS Product Development FAQs
Usually yes, and often you should. The parts worth doing properly from day one are tenancy and billing, because both are painful to retrofit. Everything else can wait for real customers to tell you it matters.
