SaaS platforms · Monselice, Padua and Veneto

Turning a service you're good at into software others pay to use.

Design and development of SaaS platforms: users, subscriptions, roles, data and the core feature, built on a base that holds when customers arrive.

The point

I've built a few for myself: OPVS for candidate selection, SEO Command Center to publish content on several sites, Dvralis for construction firms. I know what it means to go from an idea to something people really use, and how much the foundations chosen at the start matter.

What changes, in practice.

A core that works

A first version focused on the one thing someone would choose the product for.

Clear rules from the start

Users, companies, roles, plans and limits designed before they become a problem to rewrite.

Measured growth

Every version says what it made possible, for whom, and which question is still open.

Who it makes sense for.

  • From skill to product

    When a process you do well can become a service many customers use in the same way.

  • Projects that become products

    When a tool built for one client turns out to be useful to others too.

  • Industry software

    For sectors with their own rules and words, which generic software doesn't understand.

How I work, in four phases.

  1. Phase 1

    Value and boundaries

    Who uses it, what problem it solves, what they do today instead and the first promise to keep.

  2. Phase 2

    Data, roles and rules

    The foundations that let it grow without redoing everything at every new request.

  3. Phase 3

    The first version

    I build the path that proves the value, not a list of features.

  4. Phase 4

    Launch and data

    Support, real use, errors and feedback decide what comes next.

Questions I'm often asked.

Can I start with a minimal version?

Yes, if "minimal" means it does one specific thing well. Not an unfinished version: the smallest part someone can really use.

Can subscriptions be added later?

Yes, but it pays to think straight away about how companies, users and limits relate: adding them later without having planned for it costs much more.

Tell me how your work runs today.

A few lines are enough: what you do, which tools you use, where time gets lost. I reply myself, within two working days.
