Ship the software
your team actually
needs
— in weeks.

Internal tools, customer portals, and full SaaS products. We handle the boring parts — logins, payments, hosting, analytics, monitoring — so you focus on what makes your product yours. One team, design through deployment. You own every line.

  • Fixed-price first phase
  • 100% code ownership
  • Senior-only team
  • 30-day warranty
§ 01 / Is this for you?

Straight talk: who this fits, who it doesn't.

We'd rather turn down the wrong project than sell you one. Here's how to tell if we're a match.

✓ This is for you if
  • You have a product idea validated with real users and you need it built well, fast.
  • You're spending hours in spreadsheets or manual tools that a simple internal app would kill.
  • You're a non-technical founder and you need a senior team to act as your tech partner, not just coders.
  • You've been burned by offshore teams or juniors — you want people who've shipped real products before.
— Probably not a fit if
  • You want us to build a staffing marketplace for $5k. We pass on unrealistic budgets rather than underdeliver.
  • You want a dedicated team of 10 in 48 hours. We stay small on purpose — 1–3 senior people per project.
  • You're only looking for a designer or only looking for a coder. We ship end-to-end or not at all.
§ 02 / Deliverables

What you actually walk away with.

No slideware. Every item below is a real artifact in your GitHub, your cloud, or your vault — on day one of launch.

01

Production app

Live, fast, monitored, secure. Deployed on your Vercel / AWS / Fly / Cloudflare account. Real users from day one of launch.

02

Design system

Component library, tokens, Figma file. Clean enough that your next designer can extend it without a rewrite.

03

Auth, billing, analytics

Done right the first time. Stripe, Auth.js, PostHog, Sentry. We've set up this plumbing dozens of times.

04

CI/CD & infra

Preview deploys on every PR, automated tests, staging environment, production pipeline. In your GitHub org, on your cloud.

05

Docs & handover

README that your next engineer can read on day one. Architecture diagrams, deployment runbooks, credentials in your vault.

06

30-day warranty + retainer option

Free fixes for 30 days post-launch. Optional retainer if you want us to keep shipping features instead of hiring a team.

§ 03 / How it works

A simple, four-step process.

You always know what's happening, what it costs, and what's next. Weekly demos. No surprises.

STEP 0101 / 04

Scope & prototype

Fixed-price scoping phase. We turn your idea into a clickable Figma prototype and a line-item build plan. Usually 1–2 weeks.

STEP 0202 / 04

MVP build

Weekly demos you can click. Real code, in your GitHub, deployed to staging. No 'trust us, it's going well.' Usually 4–8 weeks.

STEP 0303 / 04

Launch

Production deploy, user onboarding, monitoring. We're on-call during launch week.

STEP 0404 / 04

Handover or retainer

Full handover to your team, or ongoing retainer where we keep shipping features at 1–2 devs capacity.

§ 04 / Use cases

What we've actually shipped.

Three examples of real client work. Names redacted where clients asked; outcomes are real.

Customer portal

B2B SaaS dashboard

Next.js + Supabase + Stripe. Multi-tenant, role-based access, analytics, billing self-serve. Replaced a spreadsheet-and-email workflow.

OutcomeLaunched in 7 weeks
Internal tool

Ops console for a 40-person team

Django + Postgres + React. Unified 4 separate spreadsheets and a shared Gmail inbox into one app with approvals and audit logs.

Outcome18 hrs / week saved
SaaS MVP

Vertical AI SaaS from 0 → paying users

Next.js + tRPC + Clerk + Stripe + OpenAI. Real users paying by month 3. Raised seed on the traction.

Outcome$18k MRR in 90 days
We hired Softpers to scope a 'small internal tool'. Eight weeks later we had a production SaaS with paying customers. They're the first agency I've worked with that feels like actual co-founders, not vendors.

§ 07 / FAQ

Questions we actually get asked.

Straight answers, no jargon. If yours isn't here, just ask below.

01How is this different from hiring an agency or freelancers?
We only staff senior people — 5+ years in production — and we keep teams small (1–3 per project). No juniors learning on your dime, no handoffs between 'account manager' and 'implementer'. You talk directly to the people writing the code. Most of our work comes from referrals from clients who got burned by cheaper options first.
02Will I get locked into your hosting or contracts?
03What tech stack do you use?
04Can you work with our existing codebase?
05What about ongoing maintenance?
06Can I raise funding with what you build?
