Where Projects Like This Go Wrong

These are the patterns we are usually called in to fix. Each one compounds the longer it is left alone.

Tools That Do Not Fit

Your team bends its process around features it did not choose, and works around gaps with spreadsheets and manual steps.

Vendor Lock-In

Your data, roadmap and pricing depend on a supplier, and switching later means migrating everything you have built on top of it.

Junior-Heavy Delivery

In junior-heavy teams, less experienced developers write the code and architecture problems surface after launch.

Launch-Day Hand-Off

Some vendors hand over the code at launch and move on, leaving your team to handle the first incident alone.

How It Works: Seven Stages With Review Points

Each stage ends with a review point, so you see progress, approve direction and catch problems before they get expensive.

STAGE 01

Discovery

We define scope, users, risks and success measures with you, so everyone agrees what gets built and why before design starts.

Agreed scope
STAGE 02

Architecture

We design the system structure, data model and API contracts, and review them with you before any feature work begins.

Architecture sign-off
STAGE 03

UI/UX Design

Clickable prototypes let your users test real flows early, when changes cost a design revision instead of a rewrite.

Prototype approval
STAGE 04

Development

Senior engineers build in short sprints with working demos, so you see real progress instead of status reports.

Sprint demos
STAGE 05

Quality

Automated tests, security checks and load testing run before release, so defects are caught by the process rather than your users.

Release readiness
STAGE 06

Deployment

We release in stages to production on AWS or Azure, with a rollback plan agreed before anything goes live.

Go-live approval
STAGE 07

Evolution

After launch we monitor, patch and improve the system, and plan the next release with you based on real usage.

Ongoing support

Scope of Work: What Is Included

Off-the-shelf tools make you adapt your process to their features, and many charge per seat as you grow. We build around your workflows, data model and security requirements instead.

Domain discovery

Workshops to model your workflows, data and constraints before any code is written

Architecture and technical design

System design, data model and security approach documented and reviewed with you

UI and UX prototypes

Interactive prototypes tested with the people who will use the system

Sprint-based development

Working software every two weeks with code review on every change

Testing and quality assurance

Automated tests, regression suites and release checks

Deployment and handover

CI/CD pipeline, production launch, documentation and full source code transfer

Core Engineering Capabilities

SaaS Products

Multi-tenant products with onboarding, billing and admin tooling, structured so new features ship without destabilizing the core.

Discuss Your SaaS

Process Automation

Workflows that replace manual hand-offs and spreadsheet syncing between teams and systems, with clear logs of what ran and when.

Explore AI and Automation

API and Integrations

Secure REST and GraphQL APIs plus connectors to payments, ERP and CRM systems, with retries and monitoring built in.

Explore Integrations

Legacy Modernization

Move aging systems to modern architecture in stages, so each release is tested before the next begins.

Why Choose Oblique Tech

Senior engineers, your IP, no lock-in.

IP and Source Ownership

You own 100% of the IP and the source code we write. No licensing terms, no vendor lock-in, no dependency on us.

NDA on Request

We sign an NDA on request before you share specifications, so your product details stay confidential from the first call.

Review Points Throughout

Each of the 7 stages ends with a review, so you see progress and can correct course early.

Support After Launch

We stay on after release with monitoring, patching and improvements, so launch day is not the end of the relationship.

Questions teams ask before starting

Direct answers on ownership, process, scope and support, so you can judge fit before the first call.

Who owns the code and IP afterward?

You do. Oblique Tech transfers 100% of the IP and the source code we write for you. We do not retain licensing rights or tie you to our services, so you can extend the system with any team. Ownership is not a premium option; it is how every engagement works.

How senior are the engineers on my project?

Senior engineers only. We do not staff projects with trainees. Senior engineers design the architecture, write the code and run the review points at each of the 7 stages, so the people making decisions are the people who understand the system.

How do you handle scope changes?

We agree scope in Discovery and confirm it at milestone sign-offs. When priorities change, we assess the impact on timeline and budget with you before any work starts, so changes are a decision you make rather than a surprise on an invoice. Fixed-scope delivery and dedicated pods are both available.

Can you work with our existing systems?

Yes. We connect new software to existing ERP, CRM, payment and database systems through REST and GraphQL APIs and webhooks, and we can modernize legacy systems in stages. We review what you run today in Discovery, then agree an integration plan before development begins.

What support do you provide after launch?

We offer Ongoing Support and SRE as an engagement model: monitoring, security patching, performance tuning and incident response with an agreed SLA. Support comes from senior engineers who can improve the system as well as keep it running. You can start support at launch or add it later.

Will you sign an NDA before we talk?

Yes, on request. Ask in your first message and we sign an NDA before any technical discussion. That covers your product details, data and ideas, including everything shared during Discovery. The IP in the finished software is also 100% yours, so confidentiality and ownership are both settled before work begins.

Plan your custom software with senior engineers.

Share your goal and constraints. We sign an NDA on request, scope the work with milestone sign-offs, and you keep 100% of the IP.
