SaaS platforms, CRMs, HRMS and custom web applications built on Ruby on Rails. Scalable, secure, API-driven and handed over fully documented. Serving startups and enterprises in Navi Mumbai, Mumbai, Bangalore and across India.

Ruby on Rails has powered Shopify, GitHub, Basecamp and Airbnb for a reason: it lets a small team ship a working product fast and then scale it without rewriting. For Indian startups racing to market and enterprises replacing spreadsheets with real systems, that speed is the whole point. We have built and run our own Rails products, Watskart and Property CRM, which means we know what it takes to keep one alive after launch, not just to ship it.

What we build with Ruby on Rails

SaaS products

Multi-tenant platforms with subscription billing, role-based access, admin dashboards and usage analytics, built to onboard customers without engineering involvement.

CRM and sales systems

Lead management, pipeline tracking, customer records and reporting tailored to how your sales team actually works. Our Property CRM product started exactly this way.

HRMS, LMS and DRMS

Human resource management, learning management and document management systems for organisations that have outgrown off-the-shelf tools.

Ecommerce and marketplace platforms

Custom storefronts, vendor marketplaces and WhatsApp-commerce integrations. Watskart, our WhatsApp store builder, runs on Rails.

Chatbots and API-driven systems

Conversational interfaces, third-party integrations and REST or GraphQL APIs that connect your product to payment gateways, messaging platforms and internal tools.

Legacy modernisation

Upgrading old Rails applications to current versions, refactoring for performance, adding test coverage and moving to modern infrastructure on AWS.

In practice

Every item above ships in fortnightly cycles

A named lead, a shared task board and a monthly report against the KPIs we agreed. Nothing waits on another vendor because design, development and QA sit with us.

Our development process

  1. Discovery. Requirements, user stories, data model and integrations documented before any code is written.
  2. Design. UX wireframes and UI design, reviewed with you and tested with users where possible.
  3. Agile build. Two-week sprints with a demo at the end of each. You see working software every fortnight, not a big reveal at the end.
  4. QA. Automated test coverage plus a dedicated QA team running functional, integration, regression and user acceptance testing.
  5. Deploy and support. CI/CD pipelines, AWS infrastructure, monitoring, and a support plan that keeps the product healthy.

Technology stack

Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL and MySQL, Redis, Sidekiq, Hotwire and Stimulus for the front end, React where a richer interface is needed, AWS for hosting, GitHub for version control, and Docker for consistent environments.

Why Rails in 2026?

Convention over configuration means less boilerplate and faster shipping. A mature ecosystem means most problems have a well-tested gem. Hotwire means modern, responsive interfaces without a heavyweight JavaScript framework. For most business applications, Rails remains the fastest route from idea to a product customers can pay for.

Frequently asked questions

Is Ruby on Rails still a good choice for new projects?

Yes. Rails remains one of the fastest ways to take a business application from idea to a product customers can pay for. Its mature ecosystem, strong conventions and modern Hotwire front end make it well suited to SaaS, CRM, marketplaces and internal tools. Shopify, GitHub and Basecamp still run on it.

How much does custom SaaS development cost in India?

A minimum viable product typically starts in the mid lakhs and grows with scope, integrations and design complexity. We estimate after a discovery phase that documents requirements, user stories and the data model, so the estimate reflects real work rather than a guess.

Do you build the product and then leave?

No. We offer ongoing support, maintenance and feature development, and we hand over clean, tested, documented code so your own team can take over whenever you choose. We maintain our own Rails products, so we know what post-launch support actually involves.

Can you take over an existing Rails application?

Yes. We regularly upgrade legacy Rails apps to current versions, add test coverage, refactor for performance and migrate to modern AWS infrastructure.

What is your development process?

Discovery, design, then two-week agile sprints with a working demo at the end of each. A dedicated QA team tests every release. We deploy through CI/CD to AWS and provide monitoring and support after launch.
