SaaS Platforms

SaaS platforms that compete with the incumbents.

Multi-tenant products with subscriptions, onboarding, and roadmaps — built by a team that's already shipped one into a crowded market.

A SaaS product is a different animal from a website or an internal tool. You're not shipping one build — you're standing up a business that has to onboard strangers, bill them monthly, keep their data isolated, and keep shipping features while all of that runs.

We know that shape because we've lived it. MyProvisions is a construction management platform we built end to end: estimating, scheduling, CRM, project management, invoicing, and a client portal, competing directly with entrenched names like Houzz Pro, Buildertrend, JobTread, and CoConstruct.

That experience is the value. We've already made the multi-tenant, billing, permissions, and onboarding decisions that sink first-time SaaS builds — and we know which incumbent features actually matter to users versus which ones just look good on a pricing page.

What we build

Where we go deep.

MVP to first paying users

A focused v1 that solves one wedge problem better than anyone else.

Multi-tenant architecture

Organizations, teams, invites, and hard data isolation from day one.

Subscriptions & billing

Plans, trials, upgrades, seats, usage metering, dunning, and invoices.

Onboarding & activation

The first ten minutes that decide whether a trial ever converts.

Admin & analytics

Internal tooling, support impersonation, MRR, churn, and funnel visibility.

Scale & reliability

Performance budgets, background jobs, monitoring, and safe releases.

Depth

What we learned building MyProvisions

Lessons from shipping a construction platform into a market owned by well-funded incumbents.

Win a wedge, not the whole category

Houzz Pro and Buildertrend do everything, mediocrely, for everyone. We won attention by making estimating and change orders dramatically faster for a specific contractor profile, then expanded outward.

Onboarding is the product

Incumbents lose deals in setup — data imports, seat provisioning, and week-long training. We treated first-session value as a hard requirement and it became the main reason users switched.

Price against workflow, not feature lists

Competing on a feature grid is a losing game against a bigger roadmap. We priced and positioned around hours saved per job, which is the number the owner actually feels.

Build the admin side early

Support impersonation, tenant metrics, and billing visibility feel optional until you have fifty accounts. Building them early is what let us support customers without slowing the roadmap.

Mobile parity is non-negotiable

In construction the field is the user. Any workflow that only worked on desktop went unused, regardless of how good it looked.

Market context

We build in the same league as

The platforms our own product goes up against — and what we take from studying them closely.

Houzz Pro

Broad contractor suite with strong lead marketplace and client-facing polish.

Buildertrend

Deep project management and scheduling, priced for established builders.

JobTread

Estimating-led workflow with strong cost tracking and templating.

CoConstruct

Custom-home focus with selections and client communication at the core.

Procore

Enterprise-grade commercial construction platform and integration ecosystem.

Where we differ

  • Faster onboarding — usable value in the first session, not the first month
  • Workflows shaped around real field behavior, not office assumptions
  • Modern, genuinely fast interface instead of a decade of layered legacy UI
  • Pricing and packaging that fits growing contractors, not enterprise procurement

FAQ

Common questions.

Can you take a SaaS idea from zero?

Yes — that's the work we like most. We start with positioning and a wedge feature set, then ship an MVP you can put in front of paying users quickly.

Do you take equity or work fixed-price?

Typically fixed-price phases with a retainer for ongoing product work. We'll discuss alternative structures for the right partnership.

Who owns the product?

You do — code, data, infrastructure, and accounts. We build it to be maintainable by any competent team, including your own hires later.
