Custom Laravel + Vue platforms.
Production SaaS, internal tools, and multi-tenant platforms off-the-shelf software cannot handle - scoped, written to be inherited, and maintained for the long haul.
Production SaaS, internal tools and the multi-tenant platforms that off-the-shelf software cannot handle. We scope against your Figma or spec and write the code to be inherited: readable by whoever you hire next, with tests where tests pay for themselves. Always Tickets, a platform for football tickets we built in 2025, runs on this pattern.
Pick this when
- You need logic no CMS can model - workflows, pipelines, domain rules.
- The product will live for years and change direction several times.
- You care who owns the codebase in year three, and who can read it.
Most of the real engineering we do lives here: a custom application, built for one business, that no configurable product could cover. The value is in the parts you cannot see from the outside - the domain model, the queues, the integrations, the permissions.
Written to be inherited
We write the platform so the next developer you hire can read it. Plain code over clever code. Tests where they pay for themselves, not for a coverage number. Documentation that matches what the code actually does. When you take over ownership in year three, there is nothing to reverse-engineer.
One team, from scope to year five
The people who scope the build are the people who write it and the people who maintain it. No junior ships the first version while a senior moves on. That continuity is the whole point - it is why the platforms we build in year one are still the platforms we run in year five.

Xcruiter
Multi-tenant recruitment SaaS on Laravel and Vue. We took over a live codebase in 2023, rebuilt the foundations that needed it, and have shipped features on it since - ATS integrations, a candidate pipeline, a client portal. One codebase, same hands on the keyboard.
Read the caseWhat we won't do
- Ship without a written scope. "We'll figure it out as we go" is a rebuild in year two.
- Wrap a no-code platform and call it a Laravel app.
- Hand the build to a junior and review their PRs from another project.
Common questions
Why not Next.js, Nuxt or a full SPA?
Because for most platforms we build, the value is in the backend - domain model, queues, integrations, permissions - not in rich client-side interaction. Laravel + Inertia + Vue gives us SPA-smooth navigation without a separate frontend app, a separate deploy, a separate auth layer. When a client needs a full SPA (editors, canvas apps, real-time collaboration), we reach for Vue standalone. We don’t default to it.
Can you integrate with our existing systems?
Yes. Most of our work has at least one external system in the loop - CRMs, ERPs, payment, identity, data warehouses. We’ve written adapters for Recman, HubSpot, Stripe, Przelewy24, Auth0, SAML/OIDC, S3-compatible storage, countless REST and a few stubborn SOAP endpoints. Integration work is written plainly and tested against real API fixtures.
Do you host the sites you build?
We run sites on provisioned VPS servers, set up the way a developer would: version-controlled deploys, a staging environment, server-level caching and off-server backups. Not shared cPanel hosting behind an FTP password.
Do you only build WordPress, or also custom applications?
Both. Alongside WordPress we build custom platforms in Laravel and Vue.js, with the same team and the same long-haul maintenance approach. WordPress is one half of what INFIGO does; bespoke application work is the other.
