Backends that stay maintainable after the third year.
Most of the business software we are asked to rescue is not badly written. It is written without a plan for its second year: no tests, no migrations, no way to tell what changed when something breaks.
We build Laravel applications the other way round. Schema first, migrations from day one, a test suite that runs in CI, and a deployment you can roll back. The result is an application that a different team could pick up — which is the only honest measure of whether it was built well.
Why it matters
Documented, tested and deployable by someone who is not us. You are not locked in.
Every schema change is versioned and reversible, so a bad deploy is an inconvenience rather than an incident.
Feature tests on the paths that move money or data. Not coverage theatre.
Included
Versioned, documented, and rate-limited by default.
A CMS your team can actually use, not a database viewer.
Long work moves off the request cycle. Horizon shows you what is happening.
Razorpay, Stripe and Cashfree, with webhooks that survive a redelivery.
How we work
We agree the data model and the API shape before any UI exists. Changing a table on paper costs nothing.
Domain logic, tests and admin, in vertical slices you can review weekly.
Payments, mail, storage and any third parties, each behind an interface so they can be swapped.
Load testing, security review, deployment runbook and a walkthrough with your team.
FAQ
Usually, yes. We start with a paid audit — a few days reading the code and the database — and give you a written assessment of what it would cost to stabilise versus rebuild. Sometimes the honest answer is that it is fine and you need a smaller fix than you expected.
Laravel 13 for anything new. For existing projects we will tell you what it costs to get current, because staying on an unsupported version is a security decision, not a budget one.
Yes, entirely, including the repository history. That is in the contract.
