§0Custom business apps · built in weeks · owned by you

See your business app working — before you pay for it.

Fixed-price custom apps for service businesses: scheduling, invoicing, client portals. Built in weeks. Owned by you forever.

Live, working software — not screenshots. Explore it read-only — no sign-up — then we build yours.

01Why soar.quest

Three reasons owners choose a build over another SaaS subscription.

01

Proof over promises

You see a live, working version of your app at a URL — before you commit a cent. No mockups, no “trust me.” Nobody else in the proposal stack does this.

02

You own it

The app, the data, and the box it runs on are yours. No per-seat fees, no lock-in, full export any day. Anti-SaaS by design — you’re never held hostage.

03

Boring-solid engineering

Exact-decimal money, real permissions, verified backups, printable documents — from an engineer who built ERP systems for a living. Built to be trusted with the business.

02See it working

Two real apps, running right now.

Open either one — you’ll get a read-only tour of a genuine app the framework serves: real records, dashboards, PDFs, and workflows. This is exactly what a build looks like.

Field service

Scheduling & dispatch

Jobs on a board and a calendar, technicians and resources, a customer’s history, on-site checklists, job photos, and a live ops dashboard.

Invoicing

Invoices & a client portal

Gap-free invoice numbers, exact-decimal totals and tax, line items, payments, a printable PDF, multi-currency, and per-client access.

03How it works

From a 15-minute call to an app you own.

Day 0 · Talk

Describe the workflow

Fifteen minutes. You explain how the work actually moves; I ask the boring operational questions.

Day 2–3 · Proof

See it working

You get a URL to a live draft of your app — real screens, your data shapes, your language. Free. This is the pitch.

Week 1–2+ · Build

Iterate on the real thing

We refine against the working app, not documents. Escrow milestones release payment as delivered work lands.

Handoff · Own it

Keys, data, runbook

Deployed on your box with verified backups, a runbook, and a 30-day fix window. Walk away whole, any day.

04Inside every build

The spec sheet.

Every tier ships on the same engine — the parts a business actually runs on.

4.1

Exact-decimal money

Totals, tax, and multi-currency that reconcile to the cent — never floating-point.

4.2

Roles & permissions

Owner, staff, and per-client access — enforced in the engine, not the UI.

4.3

Printable documents

Invoices, run sheets, and reports that come out of a printer looking right.

4.4

Verified backups

Backups that are restored and checked on a schedule — not just taken.

4.5

Client portals

Self-service login for your customers: their records, their documents, nothing else.

4.6

Notifications

Email and Telegram/WhatsApp messages on the events that matter to the crew.

4.7

Integrations

Sheets, Calendar, and the tools you already run — data flows both ways.

4.8

Full export

Every table, any day, one click. Ownership is a feature, not a promise.

05What it costs

Fixed scope, fixed price. Pick the depth you need.

One core workflow, a full ops system, or an ERP-lite with automations and integrations. Start where it makes sense — most clients grow the same app over time.

Tier 1 — Working Tool

Digitize one workflow

from $1,500
1–2 weeks

One core workflow, done properly: your data, the views to run it, roles, and notifications. Internal use, no portal.

Most popular
Tier 2 — Ops System + Portal

The business backbone

from $3,500
2–4 weeks

Scheduling and jobs, invoicing (PDF, numbering), a customer portal with self-service login, notifications, and dashboards.

Tier 3 — ERP-lite

Ops + automation + integrations

from $6,000
4–6 weeks

A multi-role ops system with workflows and automations, documents, integrations (Sheets, Calendar, WhatsApp, Telegram), and reporting.

Keep it healthy Optional monthly care on your own box: updates, verified backups, monitoring, and small changes. from $150/mo

Each tier ships with a one-page scope. Anything beyond it is a clear change order or the next tier — so the price stays fixed.

06The deal

Risk sits with me, not you.

Escrow milestones

Pay in stages against delivered work — through Upwork’s escrow or a 30 / 40 / 30 split direct. Money moves as the app does.

30-day fix window

Anything that breaks in the first 30 days after delivery, I fix — free. Defects are on me, not your budget.

You keep everything

Full handoff: the app, your data, the server, and a runbook. Walk away any day with all of it — no lock-in, ever.

07Case file

08Who builds it

Ahmed Elbatanony

Ahmed Elbatanony

I built ERP infrastructure for a living — the kind of software a business runs its money and operations on — and my master’s research was on no-code platforms, which is exactly what makes fast, owned, custom apps possible.

Based in Cairo, working EU and US hours. One engineer, accountable end to end: you talk to the person who builds it.

09Questions owners ask

FAQ

Do I really own it? +

Yes — the app, the data, and the server it runs on. Full export any day, no per-seat fees, no lock-in. If we part ways, everything stays with you, including a runbook for whoever comes next.

How can the price be fixed? +

Every tier ships with a one-page scope we agree on up front. Anything beyond it becomes a clear change order or the next tier — so the number you sign is the number you pay.

What happens if something breaks? +

Anything that breaks in the first 30 days after delivery, I fix free — defects are on my budget, not yours. After that, the optional care plan (from $150/mo) covers updates, verified backups, monitoring, and small changes.

What does it run on? +

Your own box — one self-contained service, with verified backups and a runbook. No stack of subscriptions underneath, nothing that dies when a vendor pivots.

Can it grow after launch? +

That's the norm — most clients start with one workflow and grow the same app: a portal next quarter, automations after that. Growth lands as change orders or the next tier, on the app you already own.

Are the demos real? +

Completely — they're live apps served by the engine right now, with seeded records, dashboards, and printable PDFs. The share links are read-only tours; no sign-up, nothing to install.
