What we build here
CapabilitiesFlutter app development
iOS and Android from one codebase, which is why a cross-platform build lands closer to the cost of one app than two. We use Flutter for most mobile work and ship to both stores.
Mobile app developmentUI and UX design
Product design that exists to be built: prototypes, a design system, and screens validated with real users before production code starts. Design and engineering sit in the same team here, not in separate agencies.
End-to-end product developmentWeb application development
Dashboards, customer portals and SaaS on React and Node. Fast by default, and structured so the second year of the product is not a rewrite.
Web application developmentSaaS and marketplaces
Multi-tenant products with billing, roles and onboarding, and multi-vendor marketplaces with payments and matching. The plumbing decided up front rather than retrofitted.
SaaS developmentAI and agentic development
AI features that do real work inside a product: intake, matching, drafting and automation, built with evaluation and human review rather than a demo.
AI & agentic developmentDedicated developers
Senior React, Node, Flutter and AI engineers embedded in your team when you have the product direction and need capacity rather than a scoped build.
Hire dedicated developersWorking with a studio in Surat
Most of our clients are elsewhere: the UK, Australia and Canada. That shapes how we work, and it turns out to suit local clients too. Everything runs in two-week sprints with working software at the end of each, a board you can see at any time, and direct access to the engineers rather than an account manager. Nothing waits for a monthly status call.
Being in Surat, you get the option the remote clients do not have. Come in for the discovery workshop, sit with the designers while the prototype takes shape, or walk through a release in person. We have found that the projects that go best start with a day in the same room, wherever the client is based, and it is considerably easier to arrange when you are nearby.
On price, our blended rate is about $20 per hour for a senior team. We publish the resulting ranges on every service page and in the cost guides, because a range you can read beats a quote you have to book a call to hear. If you want a firm number rather than a band, the Scoping Sprint ends with a fixed quote.
We also build and run our own products from here, including Denti360, DatumQ and Cleargate. That matters more than it sounds: we live with our architecture decisions for years rather than handing them over and moving on, which is why the advice on this site leans towards building less and building it properly.
Not sure which service you need?
Start with a 2-week Scoping Sprint. We'll pin down exactly what to build and what it costs before you commit to a path. Fixed price, credited against the build.
Frequently asked
Are you a software development company in Surat?
Yes. Sapient Codelabs is a product engineering studio based in Surat, Gujarat, founded in 2019. We are just over twenty people and have delivered more than a hundred products for sixty-plus clients. We work with companies in Surat and across India, alongside clients in the UK, Australia and Canada.
Do you do Flutter app development in Surat?
Yes, and it is most of our mobile work. Flutter gives you iOS and Android from a single codebase, which keeps a cross-platform build much closer to the cost of one app than two. We handle design, build, store submission and the maintenance afterwards.
Do you offer UI/UX design as well as development?
Yes, and in the same team rather than as a separate engagement. Designers and engineers work together from discovery onwards, so what gets designed is what gets built. If you only need design, we will say so rather than selling you a build you do not need.
Can we meet in person?
Yes, if you are in or near Surat. Most of our work runs remotely with two-week sprints and a demo at the end of each, because that is what clients elsewhere need, but an in-person kickoff or workshop is straightforward when you are local. Call +91 97257 89197 or use the contact form.
What does software development cost in Surat?
Our blended rate is about $20 per hour for a senior team, and we publish the resulting bands rather than asking you to book a call. A production-ready MVP typically runs $5,000 to $25,000, a custom web application $5,000 to $50,000+, and a mobile app $10,000 to $50,000 for a funded first version. The cost guides break each one down feature by feature.
Do you hire developers in Surat?
Yes. We recruit locally for engineering and design roles, and open positions are listed on the careers page. We are a small senior team rather than a large staffing operation, so we hire steadily rather than in bulk.
Who owns the code you write for us?
You do. Clients own all the intellectual property, and you get repository access from day one rather than at handover, so you can read the commit history as it happens or take a working codebase away at any point in the engagement.
