SERVICES / CUSTOM SOFTWARE

Custom software development for Sydney businesses.

Aurasite builds custom software for small and medium businesses in Sydney and across NSW: client portals, internal tools, quoting and booking systems, dashboards and APIs. Every module is written from scratch for the way your business already runs, priced as one fixed number before work starts.

It usually replaces a spreadsheet nobody trusts, a per-seat SaaS subscription you use a tenth of, or a process that lives in one person's head. See how custom software is priced or read about the automation and websites that sit alongside it.

// WHAT WE BUILDBESPOKE SOFTWARE, BY MODULE

Software written for your process, not a generic one.

Off-the-shelf tools make you work their way. Custom software development starts from how your business actually operates and builds only what is needed. Each module below is scoped and priced on its own.

CS-01Client portalsA login where customers see quotes, book, pay and track jobs. Replaces the email back-and-forth and the "any update?" phone calls.
CS-02Internal toolsJob boards, stock trackers, rostering, approvals. The spreadsheet with twelve tabs, rebuilt as a small web application your team can use on a phone.
CS-03Quoting and pricing calculatorsYour pricing logic as a form: inputs in, a number out, a PDF quote sent. The same maths every time, whoever is on the desk.
CS-04Databases you controlCustomer history, orders and records migrated out of a platform that will not let you export, into a database you can query and keep.
CS-05APIs and integrationsConnections between the systems you already pay for: accounting, CRM, payments, calendars. Data entered once, everywhere it needs to be. See automation.
CS-06Reporting and dashboardsThe numbers you check every Monday, calculated automatically and put in front of you. Leads, jobs, revenue, response times.

ST-02Fixed quote in 48 hoursOne number covering scope, integrations and screens. It does not move. If the scope moves, we requote before touching it.
ST-03Build in the openA senior engineer builds it and shows you working software early, not mock-ups. Feedback rounds are part of the price.
ST-04Handover and 30 days of fixesSource code, repositories, hosting and accounts are transferred to you at launch. Anything that breaks in the first 30 days is fixed free.
// WHO IT SUITSFROM ONE TOOL TO A FULL SYSTEM

A good fit

Trades, clinics, salons, agencies, wholesalers and professional services in Sydney and regional NSW that have outgrown spreadsheets and generic apps. Typically 2 to 50 staff, one or two processes that eat hours every week, and an owner who wants to own the fix rather than rent it.

It also suits businesses replacing an expensive SaaS stack. One fixed build often costs less than a year of per-seat subscriptions and keeps working after the invoices stop.

Also a good fit

Enterprise procurement, ERP rollouts and projects that need a 40-page requirements document before a line of code. We write the document, then build to it. We also take on software other agencies built and left: we audit it, rebuild the parts that are failing and maintain the rest.

If a $30 a month app genuinely does the job, we will say so in the reply and point you at it.

// FROM THE LEDGERCUSTOM BUILDS, LIVE
// THE STACKBORING ON PURPOSE

What we build with

Web applications in TypeScript and Python, hosted on Vercel or AWS, with a managed database (Postgres, or Airtable when a spreadsheet-shaped tool is the right answer). Static front ends where speed matters, server code where logic matters.

Nothing exotic. The stack is chosen so another competent developer can pick it up in an afternoon, because you own it and may one day want someone else to work on it.

What you get at the end

A repository with a README, hosting in your own accounts, monitoring and error alerts wired up, and a short handover session. Every public surface ships with PageSpeed 90 or better and the same local SEO foundations as our websites.

// QUESTIONSASKED BEFORE MOST BRIEFS

How much does custom software cost in Sydney?

Aurasite builds start from $1,500 AUD and are priced per module, integration and screen. A typical internal tool with two integrations lands between $5,000 and $10,000. The pricing page has an interactive estimate, and the real number is fixed in writing within 48 hours of a brief.

Do I own the software?

Yes. Source code, repositories, hosting and every account are transferred to you at launch. There is no licence fee, no lock-in and no monthly bill to Aurasite unless you choose a support arrangement.

How long does a build take?

Small tools ship in two to three weeks. A client portal with payments and integrations usually takes four to eight weeks. The quote includes a delivery date.

Can you replace the SaaS tools we pay for?

Often, yes. We map what you actually use, rebuild that as custom software at a fixed price, and migrate the data out. Where a subscription is genuinely the right tool we say so and integrate with it instead.

Do you work outside Sydney?

Yes. We are based in Sydney and work with businesses across NSW and Australia. Most projects run remotely with a site visit where it helps.
