Custom Platform Development for Swiss Companies
Workflow and process automation engineered on top of your existing platforms or our document-AI engine. We turn rule-heavy back-office work — approvals, intake, handoffs — into role-gated state machines that move work forward on their own.
Rebuild the platform you outgrew, without freezing the business that runs on it. We modernize Swiss legacy stacks one slice at a time — from rotted databases and 40-second page loads to a typed, observable architecture your team can ship on.
A 6-12 week engineering sprint that takes an AI-coded prototype to production. Real auth, security, database, tests, CI/CD and scaling — delivered by a senior team on top of the code you already shipped.
Three tracks under one platform team
Custom platform development as three named engagements, not generic dev-shop time-and-materials. Pick the track that matches where your platform is today.
Process automation software
Workflow and back-office automation built on a real platform spine — typed states, role-scoped editing, audit trail, ERP write-out.
Legacy software modernization
Strangler-pattern migrations and refactors for Laravel, PHP, .NET and Java estates — no full rewrite unless the case demands it.
Lovable / v0 / bolt prototype hardening
We take over a no-code or AI-generated prototype and turn it into production software — typed schemas, tests, CI/CD, role-based auth.
Platform engineering as one team
Architecture, backend, frontend, DevOps and QA delivered as a single Swiss-resident engagement — not a chain of subcontractors.
How a platform engagement runs
From discovery call to first production milestone in six steps. Two are paid discovery, four are build, integration and hardening against your real workload — not a sandbox demo.
Platforms we have built
Tech stack
We use boring application technology (Laravel and Next.js) for the spine, and modern AI tooling where it actually earns its keep. We host your data in CH.

Frequently Asked Questions
Custom platform development is a multi-month engagement to build the software that runs a real slice of your business. The right call when no SaaS fits, customizing one would outprice a build, or the workflow is the competitive advantage. First milestone: 8-26 weeks.
One Swiss-resident team owns architecture, backend, frontend, DevOps and QA — no subcontractor chain. Named tracks with milestone-based scope, paid discovery up front, optional monthly support after launch. Pull requests live in your repo.
Yes — that's the prototype hardening track. We replace generated code with typed schemas, add tests and CI/CD, lift the data layer onto Postgres, and put role-based auth in front. Typical run: 6-12 weeks to a soft launch.
Yes. The legacy modernization track defaults to a strangler pattern — new features on a modern stack run alongside the old system, and we migrate slices as the case becomes clear. Full rewrites only for unmaintainable code. First milestone: 8-16 weeks.
Two to three weeks of paid discovery produce a milestone-based estimate. A first production milestone runs 8-26 weeks depending on integrations and data complexity. After launch, the team rolls into a monthly support track or hands over to your in-house engineers.
Engineering is delivered by SAPIENTROQ AG (Switzerland) with the option of CH-only data residency on AWS Zurich. We work in English and German. Standby and incident response can be contracted in CET working hours.
Laravel 12 modular monoliths on the backend, Next.js 13 with React 19 and TypeScript on the frontend, PostgreSQL and Redis for data, AWS for hosting. We pick the minimum stack that solves the problem — no JavaScript-of-the-month theatre.
