SaaS Development for Businesses in Austria & DACH

Custom SaaS platforms built from scratch. No page builders, no templates — every line of code is yours and tailored exactly to your business model. I develop your product from the first database schema to the production deployment.

My Tech Stack

I rely on a modern, battle-tested stack that proves itself daily in my own products:

• Next.js with TypeScript — Server and client rendering in one framework, type-safe from API to button
• PostgreSQL — Relational database for complex business logic, proven for decades
• Redis — Caching, sessions, and real-time features like queues or pub/sub
• Hetzner servers — European infrastructure starting at €6/month
• Nginx + PM2 — Reverse proxy and process manager for stable, self-healing deployments

This stack scales seamlessly from an MVP with 50 users to thousands of active accounts — without ever needing to rethink the architecture.

From Idea to MVP

Every SaaS project starts with an intensive analysis. I take the time to understand your business model — not just the features, but also the monetization, target audience, and growth strategy. From there, a clear plan emerges:

• Requirements engineering — Which features does the MVP actually need? What can wait for version 2?
• Database design — The foundation everything builds on. Multi-tenancy, permissions, data model
• API development — RESTful or tRPC, depending on requirements, always type-safe
• Frontend — Responsive UI with React/Next.js, optimized for conversion and usability
• Deployment — CI/CD pipeline, staging and production environment, domain, SSL

The timeline always depends on scope and complexity — blanket estimates aren't serious. You get regular updates and can test, give feedback, and adjust direction at any time.

Real-World Example: Baseloq

Baseloq is my own SaaS product and the best proof of what's possible with this stack. It's a WhatsApp-based workforce management solution that I built completely from scratch:

• WhatsApp Business API — Employees report sick, log work hours, or receive shift schedules directly via WhatsApp
• 25 languages — Automatic translation so every employee can communicate in their language
• Stripe billing — Subscriptions, invoices, and payment management fully integrated
• Admin dashboard — Real-time overview of all employees, shifts, and absences

Baseloq runs on a single Hetzner server, processes hundreds of WhatsApp messages daily, and has an uptime of over 99.9%. This is exactly the quality and reliability I bring to your project.

What It Costs

Every SaaS project is individual — scope, complexity, and integrations determine the price. I work with fixed prices: after a brief conversation, you get a clear quote. No timesheets, no hidden fees, no unpleasant surprises.

The fixed price covers the entire development: from planning and design to the production deployment including the first months of hosting. After that, ongoing server costs apply, which on Hetzner typically range between €6 and €30 per month.

Why fixed price? Because I know from experience how long a project takes. And because you as a client deserve planning certainty. If I misjudge, that's my risk — not yours.
