95 Solutions is a software development company for businesses that need something built properly the first time: a website that loads fast and ranks, an ecommerce store that is easy to run, a web app that replaces a spreadsheet, or a SaaS product ready for its first paying users. We work with founders, marketing managers and operations leads who want a small senior team rather than a large vendor with layers of account managers between them and the people writing the code.
Most projects we take on start with a business problem, not a technology request. Orders are keyed in by hand, a WordPress site has become too slow to edit, a product idea needs an MVP to show early customers, or the team pays for five tools that almost do the job. As a custom software development company, we first decide whether new code is the right answer at all, then write it in a way your next developer can pick up without needing us on the phone.
Our Software Development Services
As a software development services company, we keep each service on its own page with scope, process and pricing, and our full list of services shows how they connect to marketing work. Many projects touch two or three of them, for example a Shopify store with a private app, or a web app with an AI automation layer on top.
| Service | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Web development | Marketing sites and stores on Shopify, WordPress, WooCommerce, Webflow and other platforms, plus redesigns and landing pages. |
| Ecommerce development | Store builds, catalog and checkout work, and integrations with ERPs, 3PLs, marketplaces and feeds. |
| Web application development | Browser-based tools such as dashboards, client portals, booking systems and internal admin panels. |
| SaaS development | Multi-tenant products with accounts, subscription billing, roles and usage limits, from MVP to later versions. |
| Mobile app development | iOS and Android apps, usually cross-platform, connected to your existing backend or to a new API we build. |
| Custom software development | Internal tools, CRMs and workflow systems built around how your team actually works. |
| CMS development | Custom, headless and extended content management systems for publishers and content-heavy sites. |
| AI automation | Workflows, agents and integrations that use large language models to remove repetitive work from your team. |
| UI UX design services | User research, wireframes, Figma prototypes and design systems for sites, dashboards and SaaS products, agreed before code is written. |
| QA testing services | Test plans, manual regression testing across browsers and devices, and automated suites that run before every release. |
| DevOps consulting | CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, monitoring and tested backups, so releases become routine instead of risky. |
Design, testing and DevOps can be booked on their own for software your team already runs, or folded into a build so one senior lead owns the whole delivery. If you came here looking for an AI software development company, note that most useful AI work we ship is a feature inside a larger system: a support inbox that drafts replies, a product catalog rewritten in bulk, or an intake form that classifies requests. That is why AI sits next to the other services rather than replacing them.
How We Deliver Software Development Projects
- Discovery sprint (1 to 2 weeks). We spend this time on users, workflows, data, integrations and constraints. You get a written scope, wireframes or a clickable prototype for the key screens, an architecture note and a fixed quote for the build. The sprint fee is credited to the build if you go ahead.
- Architecture and setup (3 to 5 days). We choose the stack for the job, create the repository inside your GitHub or GitLab organization, and set up staging and production environments on hosting you control. Access, secrets and billing sit in your name from day one.
- Build in short cycles (usually 4 to 14 weeks). Work ships to staging every one to two weeks with a short written update covering what was done, what is next and any decision we need from you. You click through real software early instead of waiting for a big reveal at the end. It is an agile rhythm without heavy ceremony: a prioritized backlog, short sprints and a demo at the end of each.
- Testing and review (every cycle, plus 1 to 2 weeks before launch). We test against the acceptance criteria in the scope, across browsers and devices, with realistic data volumes. Code is reviewed before it merges, and anything touching payments, personal data or user permissions gets a second pair of eyes.
- Launch (1 to 3 days, then 2 weeks of close watch). We plan the cutover, migrate data, switch on error logging and uptime monitoring, and stay close through the first days of real traffic. For public websites this also covers redirects, analytics and Google Search Console checks.
- Handover and support (about 1 week). You receive documentation, credentials and a recorded walkthrough. After launch you can keep us on a support plan, bring the work in-house, or add a dedicated developer to your own team.

Why Choose 95 Solutions as Your Software Development Company
- We build and run our own software. Our team co-builds AM Jarvis, a SaaS suite for Shopify and WooCommerce stores that covers bulk product imports, bulk editing with preview and undo, Merchant Center fixes and rank tracking. We also wrote the custom PHP and SQLite CMS behind Boiler Decoder and this website. We live with our own bugs, hosting bills and user requests, and that shapes how we build yours.
- Senior-led from the first call. Mustafa, our founder, holds a BS in Computer Science and has 11+ years in digital marketing. He leads scope and architecture on every project, so the person who agreed the plan is the person accountable for it.
- Software built by people who also sell. Because we also run SEO, paid ads and analytics through our digital marketing services, what we ship comes with tracking, page speed, structured data and conversion paths considered from the start, not bolted on after launch.
- You own everything. Code lives in your repository, hosting and domains sit in your accounts, and there are no license fees on work we write for you. If you ever part ways with us, nothing is held back.
- US contracts and overlapping hours. You contract with a US LLC and pay in USD. Our working hours overlap UK business hours and the full US business day, so reviews and calls happen during your day, not overnight.
Build, Buy or Configure: How We Advise
A good custom software development company will sometimes talk you out of custom code. During discovery we compare three routes and price the ones that make sense.
| Route | When it fits | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| Buy a SaaS tool | The process is standard (invoicing, help desk, email) and your team can adapt to the tool's way of working. | Per-seat monthly fees and limited control over data and features. |
| Configure a platform | You need a store or content site, and Shopify, WordPress or Webflow covers most of the requirement. | Platform limits and app fees, but fast to launch and easy to staff. |
| Build custom | The workflow is what makes your business different, off-the-shelf tools force workarounds, or you plan to sell the software. | Higher upfront cost and ongoing ownership, in exchange for full control and no per-seat fees. |
Many of the best builds are hybrids: a Shopify store with a private app, a WordPress site with one custom plugin, or a Laravel back office that syncs with tools you already pay for. The discovery write-up shows each option side by side so the decision is yours, made with real numbers.
What You Get at Handover
Handover is where many projects go wrong, usually months later when someone new has to change something. Every build we deliver includes:
- The full Git repository with commit history, in your organization.
- A README covering local setup, environment variables and deployment steps.
- A data model overview and notes on the main architectural decisions and why they were made.
- A list of every third-party service the software depends on, with who owns and pays for each account.
- Admin credentials, test accounts and a recorded walkthrough of the admin area.
- A short list of known limitations and suggested next steps, so the backlog does not start from zero.
What Success Looks Like With a Software Development Company
Success on a software project is measured against what was agreed in discovery, not against how the demo felt. Before the build starts, we write down the checks the finished software has to pass, and you sign off on each one at launch.
- Acceptance criteria met. Every feature in the scope has written criteria, and each one is ticked off on staging by you, not just by us.
- A steady release rhythm. Working software reaches staging every one to two weeks, with a written update each time. Long gaps are a warning sign we track ourselves.
- No open critical defects at launch. Bugs are logged by severity, and anything that blocks payments, data or logins is fixed before go-live.
- Monitoring switched on. Error tracking, uptime alerts and backups with a tested restore are running on day one, with alerts going to someone on your side as well as ours.
- A business measure you chose. Hours of manual work per week, orders processed per person, time to quote, or signups for an MVP. We record the starting point in discovery so you can measure the change honestly.
How to Choose a Software Development Company
Choose the software development company that shows you a written scope, names the people who will write your code, and puts the repository in your account, not the one with the lowest first quote. Price comparisons only mean something once two software development firms have scoped the same thing. Lists of the best software development companies are a fair place to build a shortlist, but the checks below tell you more about who will build your product.
- Ask for a paid scoping step. A fixed quote given after one call is a guess. A short discovery phase produces a scope you can take to any team, including ours.
- Check who does the work. Ask whether the senior person on the sales call reviews code and makes architecture decisions, or hands off after signing.
- Look at the delivery rhythm. You should see working software on staging every week or two, with a short written update. Months of silence followed by a big reveal is where budgets go wrong.
- Read the ownership clauses. Code, hosting, domains and third-party accounts should sit in your name, with no license fee on custom work.
- Match location to hours, not labels. Onshore, nearshore or offshore matters less than whether working hours overlap yours, which legal entity signs the contract and what currency you pay in.
- Test fit on the smallest real problem. If you need an MVP software development company, ask how they would cut scope to launch sooner. The answer tells you more than a portfolio.
In-House Developers, Freelancers or a Software Development Company?
There are three common ways to get software built, and each one suits a different stage. This is the comparison we walk through with founders who are unsure which to pick.
| Option | Works well when | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| In-house team | Software is your core product, you have years of work ahead and someone senior can hire and manage engineers. | Hiring takes months, one developer is a single point of failure, and salaries continue between projects. |
| Freelancers | The task is small and well defined, such as a plugin, a script or a bug fix, and you can review the work yourself. | Design, testing, hosting and documentation often fall between people, and availability can change mid-project. |
| A software development company | You need design, development, testing and launch delivered as one accountable project, with a fixed scope and price. | Quality depends on who actually writes the code, so ask to meet them and confirm the repository sits in your account. |
Many clients use a mix: we build the first version as a project, then a dedicated developer continues inside their team while an in-house hire is found. If you are weighing a software development outsourcing company against hiring, the deciding questions are how much work you have after launch and who on your side will own the product roadmap.
Software Development Mistakes We Help Clients Avoid
- Building every feature for version one. MVPs that try to match a mature competitor launch late and teach you little. We cut to the smallest version that real users will pay for or use daily.
- Skipping the data model. Rushing to screens before agreeing what a customer, order or job record contains leads to painful rewrites later. Discovery settles this first.
- Accounts in the vendor's name. Repositories, hosting and domains registered to the developer turn a change of supplier into a dispute. Everything we set up is in your name.
- Treating launch as the finish line. Dependencies need updates, users find edge cases and integrations change their APIs. Plan support time, or a handover to your own team, from the start.
Software Development Company Use Cases by Industry
The patterns repeat across sectors. These are typical builds we scope, with the honest limits of each.
- Ecommerce and retail. Shopify and WooCommerce private apps, product data tools, order routing between store, 3PL and ERP, and wholesale portals. This is where our own SaaS work sits.
- Logistics and distribution. As a logistics software development company for smaller operators, we build shipment tracking dashboards, carrier and warehouse integrations, and driver or job scheduling tools. Large transport management platforms are outside our scope.
- Professional services and education. Client portals, intake and quoting tools, internal CRMs, course portals and booking systems connected to payments and email.
- Finance and healthcare. Client dashboards, reporting tools and appointment or intake systems. Anything handling payment card data or patient health information needs the right compliance plan, which we scope with your compliance lead. Core banking platforms and regulated medical software are not projects we take on.
Who Our Software Development Services Fit
A good fit
- Ecommerce brands on Shopify or WooCommerce that need custom features, integrations or a rebuild.
- Founders with a validated idea who need an MVP scoped tightly enough to launch and learn from.
- Service businesses replacing spreadsheets and manual steps with an internal tool or client portal.
- Marketing teams that want developers who understand tracking, SEO and landing pages.
- Companies with an in-house team that need extra senior capacity for a defined project.
Probably not a fit
- Projects that need developers on site in your office every day.
- Regulated systems that require formal certifications, such as medical device or core banking software.
- Programs that need dozens of developers from week one. A large vendor with big delivery teams is the better choice there. For internal systems that can be delivered in phases by a senior team, see our enterprise software development services.
- Budgets that only stretch to a template with no scoping. A good theme and a DIY builder will serve you better, and we will say so.
Software Development Pricing
Most projects start with a fixed-price discovery sprint, and the sprint fee is credited to the build if you go ahead. Builds are then quoted at a fixed price per agreed scope, with any additions handled through a written change request so the budget never drifts quietly. Ongoing support and dedicated developers are billed monthly. What moves the price most is the number of user roles and screens, the integrations with outside systems, how much existing data has to be cleaned and migrated, and whether you need web and mobile apps or one of them.
Every build starts with a paid Discovery Sprint that ends in a fixed quote. The fee is credited to the build if you go ahead.
