Customer portals
Orders, documents, tickets, invoices and status for your customers, with roles for their teams and yours.

The workflow your software can't bend to, built properly.
Customer portals, internal tools and SaaS back ends on Laravel. Paid discovery sets the scope, the build ships with tests and CI/CD, and the rollback plan is rehearsed before anyone depends on it.

[01]Fit and scope
Is Laravel the right call?
Good fit if
- Your workflow has outgrown spreadsheets, email threads and SaaS workarounds
- You need roles, audit logs and integrations that hold up under real use
- You want to own the code and host it in your own cloud account
- You already run a Laravel app and need a team that can maintain it
Not a fit if
- A SaaS product already covers the workflow well enough
- You need a content website, where WordPress is the better tool
- Your organization is standardized on another stack
- You want a fixed price before anyone has mapped the workflow
[02]What we build
Four kinds of application. One standard.
If a SaaS tool already does the job well, we will tell you to buy it. Custom software is for when it doesn't.
Internal tools
The spreadsheet that became a business process, rebuilt with permissions, audit logs and integrations.
Ops · finance · field teams
SaaS back ends
Multi-tenant APIs, billing, roles, queues and webhooks behind a product your team designs with us.
Tenants · billing · API
Integrations and automation
ERP, CRM, payment and logistics systems talking to each other reliably, with retries and alerts.
Sync · ETL · webhooks
[03]Discovery first
Two weeks that save you two months.
Fixed-price discovery produces the scope, the architecture and the estimate. If you build with someone else afterward, you keep everything.
Understand
Workflow interviews, data inventory, systems map, risks. We watch people do the job today.
Decide
Scope by release, architecture, roles and permissions model, integration contracts, hosting plan.
Commit
Written scope, timeline, fixed price, clickable wireframes of the core screens, and a walkthrough.
Exit point: keep the scope, architecture and wireframes, build with anyone
[04]Scope by area
What a Laravel build covers here.
Marked included, excluded or optional in every proposal.
Architecture
Modular monolith by default. Queues, events, caching and a data model designed for the next three years, not the next demo.
Roles and permissions
Teams, roles, row-level access and audit logs. Who did what, when, is always answerable.
UI and UX
Designed with our UX team first. Livewire or Inertia for internal tools, Next.js when the product is public.
Integrations
Typed contracts, retries, dead-letter queues and alerts for every external system.
Testing
Feature and unit tests on every business rule. Coverage reported in CI. No green build, no deploy.
DevOps
Docker, GitHub Actions, staging and production, zero-downtime deploys, backups with restore drills.
Security
OWASP checks, dependency scanning, secrets management, rate limits, 2FA where it matters.
Handover
Repository, runbooks, architecture notes and a recorded walkthrough for your next developer.
[05]Inspectable artifact
A deploy and rollback log, as we keep it.
A sample with illustrative values. Every release has a tested way back.
| Release | Scope | Tests | Deploy | Rollback drill |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| v1.6.0 | Carrier rate import, ERP sync retry policy | 412 pass · 0 fail | 2026-10-28 · 02:10 ET · 0s downtime | 4m 12s |
| v1.5.2 | Audit log export, permission fix | 398 pass · 0 fail | 2026-10-14 · 02:05 ET · 0s downtime | 3m 48s |
| v1.5.0 | Document center, role: dispatcher | 371 pass · 0 fail | 2026-09-30 · 02:12 ET · 0s downtime | 4m 03s |
| v1.4.1 | Hotfix: timezone on shipment ETA | 355 pass · 0 fail | 2026-09-18 · 14:40 ET · 0s downtime | 3m 55s |
[06]Engagement models
Discovery, then one of three builds.
What changes the price: number of roles, integrations, data migration, real-time features, compliance requirements.
Scope A · Internal tool
Replace the spreadsheet
8-12weeks
- Discovery sprint
- Up to 3 roles, 1-2 integrations
- Livewire UI, tests, CI/CD
- Runbooks and handover
Scope B · most chosen · Portal
Customer or partner portal
12-16weeks
- Discovery sprint
- UX design with prototype
- External and internal roles
- 3-5 integrations, audit logs
- Zero-downtime deploys, monitoring
Scope C · SaaS back end
Product foundation
16-20+weeks
- Everything in Scope B
- Multi-tenancy, billing, webhooks
- Public API with docs
- Next.js front end if public
[07]Concept
A carrier portal that never double-posts.
A concept for a logistics team: email threads and a shared spreadsheet replaced by a portal that syncs to the ERP, with roles, audit logs and a rollback drill before every release.

[09]Questions
Before you commission software.
Why Laravel and not Node, Django or .NET?
Laravel gives us a mature, well-documented framework with first-class queues, testing and deployment tooling, and a deep talent pool for whoever maintains it after us. If your organization is standardized on something else, we will say so and refer you.
Why is discovery paid?
Because it is real work that produces real assets: a scope, an architecture and wireframes you keep. Free discovery is a sales call with extra steps.
Who owns the code?
You do, from the first commit. The repository lives in your GitHub organization.
What happens if you disappear?
Your developers, or any Laravel team, can pick up a repository with tests, runbooks and CI already in place. That is the point of building it this way.
Can you take over an existing Laravel app?
Yes, after a paid review of the code, dependencies, tests and deployment. You get a written state report with risks and options before we change anything. Some apps need stabilizing before new features make sense.
Which Laravel and PHP versions do you use?
New builds start on the current supported Laravel release and PHP version. Older apps get a staged upgrade plan, one major version at a time. Where tests are missing, we add them around the risky areas first.
Livewire, Inertia or a separate front end?
Livewire suits internal tools with many forms and tables. Inertia with Vue or React suits interfaces that need richer interaction. A separate Next.js front end makes sense when the product is public. We decide in discovery and write the reason into the architecture note.
Where will the application be hosted?
In your cloud account, not ours. Common options are Laravel Forge on a VPS, Laravel Cloud or AWS. We set up staging and production, backups and monitoring, then hand you the admin credentials.
How do you stop queues and integrations from failing silently?
Jobs are written so a retry cannot post the same order or invoice twice. Failed jobs land in a dead-letter queue and raise an alert. A runbook explains how to inspect and replay them.
What happens after launch?
A care plan with a named on-call window covers updates, security patches, backups and small changes. If your own developers take over, they get the runbooks and a recorded walkthrough. Either way, the handoff is written down.
