Capability 1 · Vertical SaaS

We ship products, not integrations.

Every other AU AI shop connects the apps you already own and hands you a diagram. We build the actual product — custom , iOS/Android apps, and internal tools, for the businesses whose work doesn't fit an off-the-shelf product. Fixed-price discovery, fixed-price build, optional care-plan retainer. AU-hosted by default. Our own product, SlabLogic — concrete-estimating SaaS for Australian contractors — is launching soon.

The Neurastruct Method: structure-first, human-reviewed, audit-ready — AU-hosted, every line reviewed before it goes out.

Plain English

What's a SaaS, and when do you actually need one?

Software-as-a-Service is software you use through a browser instead of installing on every machine. You need one when off-the-shelf doesn't cover the workflow your business actually runs on, and you don't want to wedge a spreadsheet into doing the job of three apps.

The honest test: if you've ever paid for two SaaS subscriptions whose only purpose is to talk to each other through a third one, or your team runs a critical process out of a Google Sheet with conditional formatting that one person knows how to maintain — you're past the point where custom makes sense.

The flagship proof

SlabLogic — our vertical SaaS, launching soon.

Most AI shops connect the apps you already own. Our proof is a product we built from the ground up for a trade that had nothing fit for purpose — measured with a real design partner before it goes to market.

A vertical SaaS product, built structure-first and reviewed line by line.

SlabLogicLaunching soon · Design partner Breeny's Concreting

From quoting marathons to 30-minute reviews — with an AI you can audit.

SlabLogic ingests construction plans (PDF, DWG, JPG), turns them into a structured takeoff, and prices both concrete and earthworks against the contractor's own price book. Confidence-scored detections, audit-trail revisions, tenant-isolated infrastructure, offline-first — every line is reviewed before a quote ships. Measured with design partner Breeny's Concreting (Daniel Breen, Victoria) in Q1 2026: residential concrete quoting dropped from hours to under 30 minutes. Launching soon.

Vertical product programme

One vertical product a year — yours could be next.

SlabLogic proves the pattern. Each year we take on one more SlabLogic-shaped vertical SaaS — for a trade that quotes from measurements or plans and has nothing fit for purpose to do it in.

It's the same architecture spine re-pointed: structured extraction, a price book applied automatically, a confidence-scored review queue, tenant isolation, AU-hosted and audit-ready. We run it with a design partner and measure the outcome before general availability — so what launches is a product, not a pitch deck.

Price-book intelligence

SlabLogic's pricing engine, generalised.

Your price book, applied automatically to any quote input. Ingest your rate card once, and it prices extracted quantities, a spec, or a measurement set — confidence-scored and human-reviewed before anything goes out.

It's not a second product with its own price tag. It's the engine that prices a SlabLogic takeoff, packaged to plug into a custom Build or a vertical product — priced against your own book, not a generic template.

Example workflows

Here's what we'd build for your business.

Two illustrative builds. Both are pattern walkthroughs, not deployed case studies — the real scope gets written after we understand your workflow.

Example workflow — based on patterns from solo-practitioner recruiters.

Independent recruiter · candidate pipeline SaaS

The problem. An independent recruiter runs everything out of Gmail labels, a Google Sheet, and LinkedIn. Tracking 'where each candidate is' works for the first 30 candidates per role; by candidate 80 the sheet is a wasteland of conditional formatting and people are getting forgotten. CRM tools exist but they're priced for 10-person agencies, not solo operators.

What we'd build. A purpose-built SaaS — single user, AU-hosted — that ingests candidate threads from Gmail, tracks stage (sourced → screened → submitted → interviewed → placed), and surfaces the 'what should I do today' view that's currently held only in the recruiter's head. Same fixed-price discipline as a workflow build — written scope, weekly demos, hand-off documentation.

Realistic outcome. The recruiter stops dropping candidates and starts running 2× the active roles without adding hours. The software pays itself off inside a quarter against the cost of one missed placement.

Example workflow — based on observed patterns at multi-clinician practices.

Allied-health clinic · intake-form mobile app

The problem. A physiotherapy practice with 4 clinicians sees 60 new patients a month. Each one fills in a paper intake form on a clipboard in the waiting room. The receptionist re-types it into the practice management system. Sometimes the form is hand-written illegibly, sometimes a section is missed, and the clinician finds out at the start of the session. Patient data sits in the clipboard tray for an hour before it's anywhere secure.

What we'd build. A simple mobile app (iOS + Android, cross-platform — same one app on both) that patients use in the waiting room. Skip logic — diabetics get the diabetic-relevant questions, runners get the running-relevant questions. Submissions write directly to the practice management system over an , AU-hosted backend. Offline-capable, so a flat NBN day doesn't break the waiting room.

Realistic outcome. Receptionist time on intake drops to near zero. Data quality goes up because the form refuses to submit incomplete sections. Patient data never lives on a clipboard.

How we engage

Discover · Build · Run.

Product scoping first, then a fixed-price build, then optional care. Build sizing depends on whether it's a focused MVP, a full SaaS, or a mobile app.

Discover

$6,500

1–2 week product scoping. Architecture, data model, integration register, screen inventory, and a written technical proposal with a fixed-price Build quote. The $6,500 is credited back against your Build if you proceed — and if you don't, the written scope is yours to keep.

  • 1–2 week engagement
  • Architecture + data model
  • Written technical proposal
  • Fixed-price Build quote
  • Credited to your Build

Build

from $25,000

Lean $25k–$45k (single-platform). Production SaaS $60k–$95k. Mobile cross-platform $45k–$95k. Builds above $95k are co-delivered with vetted contractors, one point of contact — the fixed price holds even if a contractor drops out.

  • Fixed-price after Discover
  • Weekly progress demos
  • Hand-off documentation
  • 30-day post-launch support

Run

from $1,500/mo

Optional care-plan retainer. Bug fixes, dependency updates, minor feature work. Two tiers depending on how active the system needs to be.

When Custom Software from Neurastruct is the right fit.

  • You've outgrown your spreadsheet stack or two SaaS subscriptions that only exist to talk to each other
  • You have IP, a trade secret, or a workflow that off-the-shelf tools don't cover
  • You want to own the code and the data, not rent it
  • You want fixed-price engagements with weekly demos, not open-ended hourly billing
  • You need an enterprise-scale platform with 100+ named users on day one
  • You want a generic CRM/POS/HR tool — buy that off-the-shelf and we'll help you wire it up under AI Automation instead

What's outside scope for Custom Software.

Things we deliberately don't take on — so you know where Neurastruct fits and where you want a different partner.

  • Enterprise-scale platforms with 100+ named users on day one. That's a different shape of project and a different size of team.
  • Generic CRM, POS, or HR tools. Buy those off-the-shelf — we'll wire them up under AI Automation.
  • Hourly billing or open-ended retainers for greenfield builds. Every engagement is fixed-price after Discover.
  • Vendor lock-in. Every Build includes full source-code transfer and documentation at handoff.
FAQ

Common questions about Custom Software engagements.

When does custom software make sense over a SaaS subscription?

When the SaaS subscription doesn't cover your actual workflow, when you're paying for two of them just to talk to each other, or when your competitive edge is a workflow your competitors can also buy. If a tool exists that fits, buy it — we'll happily help you wire it up as an AI automation instead.

Who owns the code and IP?

You do. Every Build includes full source code transfer and architecture documentation at handoff. No vendor lock-in. If we part ways, your in-house team or another contractor can pick the work up.

What if scope exceeds your founder-solo cap?

We cap solo-founder builds at ~$95k. Above that, we co-deliver with vetted contractors so a single point of failure can't take your project with it. The scope, price, and accountability all stay with Neurastruct — the bench just gets deeper. The fixed price holds even if a contractor drops out — that cost is ours, not yours.

How long does a typical custom build take?

Discover sprints run 1–2 weeks. Lean MVPs ship in 6–10 weeks. Full SaaS builds run 3–6 months from Discover to first customer use. Mobile cross-platform sits in the same band as Lean MVP. We work in 1-week iterations with weekly progress demos.

Where is my data hosted?

AU-hosted by default (AWS Sydney). Tenant isolation. . We never send customer data to third-party LLM providers without explicit opt-in. Read the Trust centre for the full breakdown.

Got an idea you can't find a tool for?

The first consultation is free and takes 30 minutes. You'll leave with a clearer sense of whether custom is the right call — and a rough sizing band if it is.
