01 / Services

Custom software and AI, built around your business

Apps and platforms built from scratch, AI that plugs into the systems you already run and senior advice before you commit budget. Start with a scoped project or keep us on retainer.

  • Custom software development

    Internal tools, client portals and automation shaped around how your business actually works — for the jobs off-the-shelf tools can't handle or that you've outgrown.

  • MVP development

    Go from idea to a launched product fast — tightly scoped, built to grow past version one.

  • SaaS & web apps

    SaaS platforms, dashboards and customer-facing apps with Rails APIs and fast, accessible React frontends.

  • APIs & backend

    Well-designed REST APIs, third-party integrations, background jobs and payment flows that hold up under load.

  • Rails upgrades & rescue

    Upgrade legacy Rails apps, pay down tech debt and fix the slow pages and queries your users complain about.

  • Maintenance & scaling

    Monitoring, security patches, dependency updates and steady feature work after launch — on a simple monthly retainer.

AI & agents

Put AI to work inside your business

We build AI agents and integrations that connect language models to your data, tools and existing systems — with the guardrails real operations need.

Your systems

  • CRM
  • Databases
  • Docs & wikis
  • Email & Slack
  • Internal APIs

AI agent

  • Understands the request
  • Uses your tools and data
  • Hands off to a person when unsure

Work done

  • Support tickets triaged
  • Records updated
  • Reports drafted
  • Leads qualified
  • Custom AI agents

    Agents that take real actions, not just chat — triaging requests, updating records and escalating to your team when it matters.

  • AI in your workflows

    Automate the repetitive work: document processing, data extraction, summaries and draft replies, inside the tools your team already uses.

  • Connect AI to your systems

    Plug AI into your existing apps, databases and APIs — Rails backends and legacy systems included — so answers come from your own data.

  • AI strategy & evaluation

    Find where AI actually pays off, prototype it fast and measure accuracy and cost before you roll it out to everyone.

03 / Process

How a project works

No surprises. You always know what's being built, when, and for how much.

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    Thirty minutes on your goals, constraints and timeline — and an honest answer on whether we're the right fit.

  2. 02

    Scope & proposal

    A written proposal with milestones, timeline and a clear quote. We agree on the cost together before any work starts.

  3. 03

    Build in the open

    Weekly demos, a shared board and a staging link from week one. Feedback goes straight to the engineers writing the code.

  4. 04

    Launch & support

    We deploy, monitor and hand over documentation — or stay on to keep improving the product with you.

04 / About

A team of experienced engineers, start to finish

Our engineers have spent years building production software — from early-stage MVPs to platforms with real customers depending on them every day.

We started NeoKalpa to build products we believe in, and to give clients what we always wanted from an agency: senior engineering, straight answers, and no hand-offs to people you've never met.

  • Senior engineers on every project

    The engineers you talk to are the engineers who build it.

  • Clear scopes, honest estimates

    If something changes, you hear it from us first — with options.

  • You own everything

    Code, designs and infrastructure accounts are yours, set up in your name.

  • Built to be maintained

    Tests, docs and boring, proven tech your next hire will understand.

05 / FAQ

Questions, answered

How do you price projects?

Every project starts with a written quote shaped around your scope and budget, and we agree on it together before work begins. Ongoing work runs on a simple monthly retainer.

How long does an MVP take?

Most MVPs launch in one to three months. A focused product with one core workflow sits at the shorter end; payments, integrations or AI features add time. After the discovery call you'll get a realistic timeline with milestones.

Do you work with existing codebases?

Yes. Rails upgrades, React refactors, performance fixes and picking up projects mid-flight are a big part of what we do.

Can you add AI to our existing product?

Yes — that's most of our AI work. We connect models to the apps, databases and APIs you already run, start with one high-value workflow and measure accuracy and cost before expanding.

What happens to our data when we use AI?

We design integrations so your data stays in your own infrastructure wherever possible, choose providers and settings that keep it out of model training and add access controls and audit logs.

Do you offer consulting on its own?

Yes. Architecture reviews, discovery and fractional CTO support are available without a build project — as a one-off engagement or a monthly retainer.

Who will work on my project?

Experienced engineers from our core team, with one technical lead as your main point of contact from kickoff to launch.

Will I own the code?

For projects we build for you — including SaaS platforms you'll run as your own business — yes. Once the work is paid for, the code, designs and infrastructure accounts are yours, set up in your name, with no lock-in. Our own products work like any SaaS: you subscribe, and your data always belongs to you.

Can you sign an NDA?

Of course — send it over before the discovery call.

What happens after launch?

You can keep us on a maintenance retainer for monitoring, updates and new features, or we hand over clean documentation so your team can take it from there.
