Asli One Global / Services / SaaS development

The parts of a SaaS that only hurt after launch.

SaaS product development · Worldwide

Anyone can build the screens. The things that decide whether a SaaS survives — tenancy, roles, billing, metering, dunning, the admin console you did not scope — are the things a team learns by operating one. We operate ten.

In short

Asli One Global builds SaaS products for clients worldwide — multi-tenant architecture, authentication and role-based access, subscription and usage-based billing, webhooks and public APIs, and the internal admin console every SaaS eventually needs. The team runs ten of its own software products in production, including live subscription billing through Razorpay and a prepaid wallet that meters usage per message sent.

01

What we actually build into a SaaS

Every item here exists in something we run today. None of it is a capability we would be attempting for the first time on your budget.

01.01

Multi-tenancy

Tenant isolation, per-tenant configuration and the migration story. We will also tell you honestly when single-tenant is the better answer — see below.

01.02

Auth and roles

Sign-up, sign-in, sessions, invitations and role-based access control. One of our products ships twelve distinct roles, because a restaurant owner and a floor waiter must not see the same screen.

01.03

Subscription billing

Plans, upgrades, downgrades, renewals and failed-payment handling, wired to a real gateway. Ours runs live on Razorpay today.

01.04

Usage metering

Prepaid wallets, per-unit debits and balance enforcement. Ours meters at one paisa per email, which is as small a unit as billing gets.

01.05

APIs and webhooks

A public REST API, keys and rotation, rate limits per plan, and outbound webhooks with retries — the integration surface customers ask for in month three.

01.06

The admin console

Impersonation, tenant management, audit trails and the manual override every support team needs at 2am. Nobody scopes this. Everybody needs it.

02

The mistake we made, so you can decide with your eyes open

Five of our own products — the industry ERPs — are sold as dedicated single-tenant deployments rather than multi-tenant SaaS. Each customer gets their own instance, their own database, their own upgrade and their own support surface.

That was a deliberate early choice and it has real benefits: total data isolation, per-customer hosting regions, and the freedom to modify one customer's system without touching anyone else's. It is also why those five products have no list price, and why they cap how many customers one engineer can carry.

We tell you this because it is the single most consequential architectural decision in a SaaS build, it is very expensive to reverse, and most vendors will simply say "multi-tenant" because it is the fashionable answer. We have lived on both sides of it and can tell you which one your business model actually wants, before you write the first migration.

When we are not the right choice

  • You need SOC 2 or ISO 27001 from your development partner. We hold neither and say so on the security page.
  • You need a team of twenty starting next month. We are four people. Capacity is real and we will not pretend otherwise.
  • You need same-timezone coverage in North America. We work 09:30–18:30 IST and overlap the US at the edges of the day.
  • Your product is deep infrastructure — a database engine, a compiler, real-time video at scale. Hire specialists.
  • You want the cheapest possible hourly rate. There is always someone cheaper, and you can usually tell why afterwards.

Tell us what it does. We'll tell you what it costs.

Frequently asked questions

Q.01Do you build SaaS MVPs?

Yes, and usually as a fixed-scope phase one: the narrowest thing that a real customer can pay for, priced against a written scope so you know the number before you commit. You see it work, then decide on phase two. That is how our healthcare marketplace client has bought from the start.

Q.02Can you build subscription billing?

Yes — it runs in our own products today. Plans, upgrades and downgrades, renewals, failed payments and webhooks, live on Razorpay. We have also built prepaid wallet metering that debits at one paisa per message, which is the harder half of usage-based billing.

Q.03Should my SaaS be multi-tenant or single-tenant?

It depends on your buyer, and it is the most expensive decision to reverse. Multi-tenant scales customers per engineer and enables self-serve. Single-tenant gives total data isolation, per-customer hosting regions and per-customer modification — which is why enterprise and regulated buyers often demand it. We run five products on single-tenant and the rest multi-tenant, so we can tell you what each one actually costs to operate rather than which is fashionable.

Q.04Will you keep running it after launch?

If you want us to. Deployment, monitoring and support can be part of the engagement. We already operate ten products, so keeping something alive is the normal state of affairs here rather than a new service line.

Q.05Who owns the SaaS you build for us?

Whatever the contract says, agreed before work starts — full assignment to you, or a licence at a lower price where we retain the core. We settle this in writing first, every time.

Q.06What does a SaaS build cost?

Quoted against a written scope. The published reference point is a phase-one two-sided marketplace — NestJS and Prisma API, Flutter app, partner and admin panels — contracted at INR 70,000, about USD 733. Scope drives everything, so send yours to info@asli.one for a real number.
