App & SaaS Development

Custom web apps, mobile apps, and SaaS products built to scale your business and solve real problems.

Custom App & SaaS Development That Solves Real Problems

Off-the-shelf software can only take you so far. When your business needs a tool that doesn’t exist yet — or when you have a SaaS idea ready to bring to market — Ariel Digital builds custom applications and software products designed around your exact requirements.

Why Custom App Development?

Every business has unique workflows, pain points, and opportunities. Generic software forces you to adapt your business to its limitations. Custom development flips that equation:

  • Purpose-built solutions that match your exact workflow
  • Scalable architecture that grows with your business or user base
  • Full ownership of your code and intellectual property
  • Competitive advantage through proprietary tools and platforms
  • Seamless integrations with your existing systems and data

Our Development Services

Custom Web Applications

From internal dashboards and client portals to complex multi-tenant platforms, we build web applications using modern frameworks that are fast, secure, and maintainable. Whether you need a project management tool for your team or a customer-facing platform, we deliver production-ready software.

SaaS Product Development

Have an idea for a software-as-a-service product? We help founders and businesses go from concept to launch. Our SaaS development process covers everything from MVP scoping to subscription billing, user management, and the infrastructure needed to serve thousands of customers.

Mobile Applications

Reach your users wherever they are with native-quality mobile apps. We build cross-platform applications that work on iOS and Android from a single codebase — reducing cost and time to market without sacrificing performance.

API Development & Integrations

Connect your systems, automate workflows, and unlock your data. We design and build RESTful APIs and integrations that tie your tools together and create new capabilities for your business.

Our Development Process

1. Discovery & Scoping

We start by mapping your requirements, user stories, and business goals. This phase produces a clear project scope, technical architecture, and development roadmap — so there are no surprises.

2. Design & Prototyping

Before writing production code, we create wireframes and interactive prototypes. You’ll see how the application looks and feels, validate the user experience, and provide feedback early when changes are cheap.

3. Agile Development

We build in iterative sprints, delivering working software every two weeks. You’ll see progress continuously, test real features, and provide input throughout the build — not just at the end.

4. Launch & Ongoing Support

We handle deployment, monitoring, and post-launch optimization. After your app is live, we provide ongoing maintenance, feature development, and scaling support to keep your product growing.

FAQs

App & SaaS Development FAQs

How much does custom app development cost?
Custom app development costs depend on complexity, features, and platform. Simple web applications start around $10,000, while complex SaaS platforms or mobile apps can range from $25,000 to $100,000 or more. We provide detailed estimates after a thorough discovery and scoping phase.
How long does it take to build a custom application?
A minimum viable product (MVP) typically takes 2-4 months to build. Full-featured applications can take 4-8 months or longer depending on scope. We work in two-week sprints so you see working software early and can provide feedback throughout the process.
What technologies do you use for app development?
We select the best technology stack for each project's requirements. For web applications, we commonly use modern frameworks like React, Next.js, and Astro. For mobile apps, we use cross-platform tools like React Native. Our backend and infrastructure choices are tailored to your scalability and performance needs.
Do I own the source code?
Yes, you own 100% of the source code and intellectual property for everything we build. When the project is complete, all code, documentation, and assets are transferred to you. You're never locked in or dependent on us to access your own software.
What is a SaaS product and should I build one?
SaaS (Software as a Service) is software delivered over the internet on a subscription basis. If you have a solution to a problem that many businesses or users share, building a SaaS product can create recurring revenue. We help evaluate whether a SaaS model fits your idea during our discovery phase.
Can you build a mobile app for both iPhone and Android?
Yes. We build cross-platform mobile applications that run on both iOS and Android from a single codebase. This approach significantly reduces development time and cost compared to building two separate native apps, while still delivering a high-quality user experience.
What happens after my app launches?
We provide post-launch support including bug fixes, monitoring, and performance optimization. Most clients continue with an ongoing maintenance agreement for updates, new features, and infrastructure management. Software is never truly finished — it evolves with your business and users.
How do you handle project communication and updates?
We use agile project management with two-week sprints. You get regular demo sessions to see working software, a shared project board to track progress, and direct access to your development team. We believe in over-communicating rather than leaving you in the dark.
Can you integrate my app with other tools and services?
Yes. API development and third-party integrations are a core part of what we do. Whether you need to connect with payment processors, CRMs, email platforms, accounting software, or other business tools, we build reliable integrations that keep your systems in sync.
What if I just have an idea and don't know where to start?
That's exactly where our discovery process begins. We help you refine your idea, define the core features, identify your target users, and map out a realistic development roadmap. Many of our best projects started as a rough concept that we shaped into a viable product together.
