Web apps

Web apps built on Laravel.

Customer portals, SaaS products and the internal tools that run your business, built on Laravel: fast to develop, easy to maintain and ready for your mobile and TV apps to plug into.

What we build

Software your business runs on.

From a focused internal tool to a multi-tenant SaaS product, every web app we build shares the same solid foundations.

Customer & member portals
Accounts, self-service, documents, billing history and role-based access for your customers or members.
SaaS products
Multi-tenant platforms with subscriptions, teams, permissions and usage-based billing.
Booking & scheduling
Availability, reservations, reminders and payments, with calendars your staff can actually manage.
Admin panels & internal tools
Filament back offices shaped around how your team works, with dashboards, reports and bulk actions.
APIs for your apps
Clean, versioned APIs designed alongside your mobile and TV apps rather than bolted on afterwards.
Integrations
Stripe, Xero, MYOB, single sign-on, maps and email providers, connected cleanly and documented.

The stack

Laravel at the core.

We go deep on one ecosystem rather than dabbling in many. It means fewer moving parts, faster delivery and developers you can hire when you're ready to grow a team.

The tools we use for web apps
Layer We use Why
Backend Laravel Mature, secure and productive, with queues, scheduling and authentication built in.
Interface Livewire, or Inertia with React or Vue Interactive screens without the overhead of a separate front-end app, or a full SPA when it earns its keep.
Admin Filament A complete back office in days, not months, extended to fit your workflows.
Data PostgreSQL & Redis Reliable relational data, with fast caching and queues.
Hosting Laravel Cloud or AWS Autoscaling infrastructure in Australian regions, in your own account.
Quality Pest & CI pipelines Automated tests on the parts that matter, run on every change.

Already have an app?

We take over, upgrade and rescue.

Laravel upgrades
Bring an older Laravel app up to the current release, safely and in stages.
Legacy migrations
Move ageing PHP, Rails or no-code systems onto modern Laravel without losing data.
Performance
Find the slow queries and heavy pages, then fix them properly.
Project rescue
Stalled build or departed developer? We assess the code and chart a way forward.

Questions

Web app questions.

Livewire or a JavaScript front end?

Most business apps are best served by Livewire: interactive, fast to build and simple to maintain. When a product needs a richer client-side experience, we use Inertia with React or Vue on the same Laravel backend.

Do you build the admin panel too?

Yes. Almost every web app we build includes a Filament admin panel so your team can manage customers, content and operations from day one.

Can the same backend power our mobile and TV apps?

That is how we prefer to build. We design the API alongside the apps, so web, mobile and TV share one source of truth.

Where will it be hosted?

Usually Laravel Cloud or AWS, in Australian regions for Australian customers, and always in an account you own.

How much does a web app cost?

Every project is different, so we only quote once we understand what you need. The first conversation is free, and you get a written quote before any work starts.
