SaaS platform development
SaaS differs from an ordinary system in one way: different companies work inside it at the same time. Isolation, plans and billing take most of the budget — the product screens are the fast part.
We scope the estimate before the work starts; timelines and warranty go in the contract.
What the work includes
Isolation by architecture
A query physically cannot return another tenant's rows. For sensitive niches, a database per customer.
Plans and limits from day one
How many users, how many documents, which features on which tier — data structure, not a settings checkbox.
Billing in the first release
Charges, renewals, failed payments, refunds. Without payment you will not learn whether anyone will pay.
Customers onboard themselves
Sign-up and a workspace without your involvement — otherwise the product does not scale past the first dozen.
Admin panel as product
You see customers, their activity and payments, not «an internal screen for the developer».
No provider lock-in
The infrastructure can move: choosing a platform should not become permanent.
What makes SaaS different
When a system is built for one company, nobody asks whether customer A might see customer B's data. In SaaS that is the main question.
It has to be answered by architecture rather than by a careful programmer: the restriction lives in the data layer.
Hence three tasks absent from an ordinary project: data isolation, plans with limits, and billing.
They cannot be cut «for now» — they get rewritten together with the foundation.
What goes into the first release
Sign-up and a company workspace.
The core: exactly the one function people pay for. One, not three.
Plans and payment: two or three tiers, card or Kaspi, an invoice for companies.
Admin panel: customers, activity, payments.
Analytics, integrations and a mobile app — second wave, once real customers arrive.
How we run it
- Product discovery. What exactly people pay for and who pays.
- Architecture. Data isolation, pricing model, load on growth.
- Development. A working slice every two weeks.
- Billing. Plans, card and Kaspi payment, invoices for companies.
- Launch. First customers, data collection, next iteration.
Frequently asked
How much does SaaS platform development cost?
From ₸1,500,000. Isolation, the pricing model and billing move the number most.
How is tenant data isolated?
The restriction works in the data layer: a query physically cannot return another tenant's rows. For sensitive niches we use a database per customer.
Can we accept payment via Kaspi?
Yes. We usually implement both card acquiring and Kaspi, plus invoicing for companies.
How long until the first version?
8-12 weeks — longer than an ordinary system because of plans, billing and access separation.
Does the infrastructure stay ours?
Yes, together with the source code and documentation.
