Services
Custom Web Applications, Built and Shipped Solo
Member areas, dashboards, SaaS tools, and internal platforms built by one developer from brief to deployment — no agency layers, no handoffs, just direct communication and working code.
Who this is for
Businesses and founders building tools that need to do real work behind a login — not just pages, but applications with user accounts, data management, workflows, or API integrations. This suits projects where the brief is clear enough to scope, but bespoke enough that an off-the-shelf SaaS tool won't cut it.
Examples: member dashboards for service businesses, internal portals for team collaboration, lightweight SaaS products, booking systems with custom workflows, or any web tool that replaces spreadsheets, emails, or manual processes with structured data and automation.
What's included
- Discovery and technical scoping: We define workflows, data models, user roles, and integration points before writing code — realistic timelines, no surprise constraints halfway through.
- User authentication and permissions: Secure login, password recovery, role-based access, and session management built to work reliably from day one.
- Database design and data integrity: Structured data models, validation, and sensible relationships so your application doesn't collapse under edge cases or scale issues.
- API integrations: Connect to payment gateways, email services, third-party APIs, or webhooks — documented, tested, and built to handle failures gracefully.
- Staged delivery and testing: Agreed milestones with functional previews so you can test workflows in the browser and suggest changes before final deployment.
- Full code ownership: Complete source code and repository access at handover — no proprietary platforms, no vendor lock-in, no ongoing licence fees.
Pricing
Custom web applications start from $8,000 AUD for the upfront build. Final cost depends on user roles, data complexity, integrations, and workflow requirements — every project is scoped individually during discovery. Hosting is $79/month. Optional ongoing edits and feature additions are available as a monthly site changes plan ($149/month for up to 3 hours; extra work quoted hourly).
