Software development services, from first sketch to production support.
Eleven service lines, one delivery team and one roadmap. You can buy any one of them on its own — most engagements use three or four, quoted as a single outcome rather than a stack of invoices.
Canopus IT Solutions builds and runs software across eleven service lines — custom software, SaaS products, AI systems, mobile apps, enterprise applications, API integration, cloud and DevOps, web development, eCommerce, digital marketing, and dedicated engineering teams. Each is delivered by the same team, under one contract, with full IP transferred to you.
Engineering services
The eight lines that produce working software. Pick the one closest to your problem — the page tells you how the work is scoped, how long it takes and what you receive at the end.
Web platforms, internal tools and workflow automation built to a specification you own. Typically 10–20 weeks from discovery to production.
SaaS Product DevelopmentMulti-tenant architecture, subscription billing, RBAC and usage analytics. MVP in 8–12 weeks, then scale.
AI & Intelligent SystemsRAG assistants, agents and document intelligence with evaluation harnesses and guardrails before launch.
Mobile App DevelopmentSwift, Kotlin, Flutter and React Native — including offline-first apps for field and driver teams.
Enterprise ApplicationsCRM, ERP, HRM and operations systems — custom-built or fitted around Zoho, Odoo and Dynamics.
API & System IntegrationStripe, Razorpay, Salesforce, SAP, Twilio, EDI and webhook pipelines that survive the other side's outages.
Cloud, DevOps & ModernisationAWS, Azure and GCP migration, containers, CI/CD, observability and monthly cloud-cost reduction.
Dedicated Teams & SupportA named squad on your roadmap, plus maintenance and AMC with contractual response times.
Web, commerce and demand
The three lines that put a product in front of buyers. Engineering-led, which is why the technical SEO work lands rather than sitting in a backlog no developer will touch.
Website & Web Development
Marketing sites, web applications and WordPress builds measured against Core Web Vitals, not against a design mock.
- Next.js, Laravel, WordPress
- Headless CMS and content modelling
- Accessibility and CWV budgets
eCommerce Development
Shopify Plus, WooCommerce and headless storefronts wired to the ERP, the 3PL and the tax engine that actually run the business.
- Store builds and replatforming
- Checkout, payments and subscriptions
- Inventory and order sync
Digital Marketing & SEO
Technical SEO, Google Ads, Meta and LinkedIn — run by people who can also ship the code the fixes require.
- Technical SEO and schema
- Paid search and paid social
- Conversion rate optimisation
Which service do I actually need?
Buyers rarely arrive knowing the service name. They arrive with a sentence. Find the sentence closest to yours.
| If you're saying this… | Start here | Typical scope | Typical timeline |
|---|---|---|---|
| "Our team runs the whole operation on spreadsheets." | Custom Software | Spec, build, handover | 10–20 weeks |
| "We want to sell this as a subscription product." | SaaS Development | Multi-tenant MVP with billing | 8–12 weeks to MVP |
| "We have thousands of documents nobody can search." | AI & Intelligent Systems | Retrieval, evaluation, guardrails | 6–14 weeks |
| "Our field staff need something that works without signal." | Mobile Apps | Offline-first iOS and Android | 10–18 weeks |
| "Two systems disagree and someone re-keys the data." | API & Integration | Two systems, one data contract | 4–12 weeks |
| "The server falls over and nobody knows why." | Cloud & DevOps | Migration, CI/CD, alerting | 3–14 weeks |
| "Our CRM doesn't match how we actually sell." | Enterprise Applications | Custom build or Zoho/Odoo fit | 6–20 weeks |
| "The site is slow and we're invisible in search." | Digital Marketing & SEO | Retained technical SEO and paid | 3–6 months to compound |
| "We need more engineers, not another vendor." | Dedicated Teams | Named squad on your backlog | Live in 3–4 weeks |
Scroll the table sideways to see scope and timeline.
Timelines assume a single production system with normal integration load. Regulated domains — hospital systems, payments infrastructure, anything touching HL7/FHIR or PCI scope — carry extra review, evidence and audit work that lands at the top of the range or beyond it, and we say so during scoping rather than after. A number comes out of discovery rather than out of a table: stage one ends with a written estimate set against a specification you keep either way.
Nobody buys one service. They buy a working system.
A logistics client "bought mobile app development". What they actually needed was a driver app, a dispatch web console, a telematics ingestion pipeline, two carrier integrations and a monitoring setup that pages someone at 3am. Five service lines, one team, one statement of work.
This is the reason we don't sell services as separate contracts. The interesting failures happen at the seams between them — and seams are exactly where two vendors point at each other.
Buying delivery under your own brand
Agencies and consultancies buy the engineering lines above white-labelled: we build under your brand, on your process, invisible to your client and contractually barred from approaching them. It is a way of contracting rather than a twelfth service line, so it sits with the engagement models — see white-label development partnerships for what we do and do not white-label.
What comes with every service line
These are not upsells and they are not conditional on the size of the project.
- Full IP assignment on paymentRepository, infrastructure, credentials and documentation — transferred, not licensed.
- A named team lead for the whole engagementThe person who scoped it stays through launch.
- Two-week sprints with a working demoSlippage surfaces in a fortnight, not at a deadline.
- Automated tests and code review on every changeNo merge without a second pair of eyes.
- Written architecture and runbook documentationEnough for another team to take over without us.
- Staging environment matching productionIncluding data shape, not just an empty database.
- Dependency and secrets scanning in CIFindings triaged, not just reported.
- A 30-day post-launch defect windowBugs from our build are fixed at no charge.
The same five stages, whichever service you buy
Discover
1–3 weeks. Requirements, constraints and a costed plan you can take elsewhere.
Design
2–4 weeks. Flows, data model, architecture decision records and a clickable prototype.
Build
The bulk of the engagement. Sprint demos, staging deploys, QA inside each cycle.
Launch
1–2 weeks. Load testing, observability, rollback plan and a documented handover.
Operate
Ongoing. Monitoring, patching and continuous delivery under an AMC retainer.
Choosing between services
Do I have to pick one service, or can they be combined?
Almost every engagement combines several. A SaaS build typically pulls in custom software, API integration and cloud work under one statement of work and one team lead. You are quoted for the outcome, not billed separately per service line.
What is the smallest project you will take?
It depends on the shape of the work rather than a floor figure. A new build has to carry discovery, architecture and a production launch, so it needs a problem worth solving that way. Scoped work on a system you already run starts smaller — a single integration, a cloud migration, a two-week AI evaluation — because the scope is already known and there is less to coordinate. We don't take website projects under $3,000 at all. Maintenance and AMC retainers sit lower again because the work is continuous rather than a build.
How do you decide which technology to use?
By what your team can maintain after we leave, not by what is newest. If your engineers know Laravel, we don't hand you a Go microservice estate. Where you have no in-house team, we default to TypeScript, PostgreSQL and a managed cloud runtime because hiring for that stack is easiest anywhere in the world.
Can you work alongside our existing development team?
Yes. We run as an embedded squad inside your process — your board, your standups, your code review rules — or as a separate workstream with a defined API contract between us. Both are common; the second causes fewer arguments when the two teams use different stacks.
Which service should I start with if I only have an idea?
A discovery engagement inside custom software or SaaS development. Two to three weeks produces a scope, an architecture, a costed plan and a clickable prototype. It's paid work, it's yours to take elsewhere, and it's the cheapest way to find out whether the expensive part is worth doing.
Do you offer fixed-price contracts across all services?
For anything with a written specification, yes. For AI work, discovery-stage products and legacy modernisation we recommend time and materials with a capped sprint budget — fixed price on an unknown forces both sides to pad the estimate and argue about scope later. Compare the models.
Not sure which service fits? Describe the problem.
You don't need to know the service name. Tell us what is going wrong or what you want to exist, and an engineer replies within one business day with a route through it.
