Business Apps & Systems

Software built around the way your business works.

For businesses that need more than a standard website: internal apps, dashboards and systems shaped by how the work actually gets done — then operated for the team that uses them.

  • Internal business apps
  • Employee dashboards
  • CRM-style systems
  • Scheduling tools
  • Customer management
  • Inventory systems
  • Workflow tools
  • Internal portals
  • Custom business software
  • Automation-driven systems

One-time project

Custom App Development

App development Custom Quote

The build is quoted for your system, not from a menu. The quote depends on complexity, features, integrations, the number of screens, workflows, security requirements, infrastructure and your business requirements.

  • Built around your actual processes, not a template
  • Security-aware from the first screen
  • Integrations with existing tools where the scope calls for them
  • A proposal with scope, quote and timeline estimate before any paid work

Monthly plan based on employee usage

App Operation / Support

Once your app is built, choose the plan that matches the number of employees who use it. The plan covers running the app for your team — it never includes the build, which is always quoted first.

  • Starter

    $35/month

    1–5 employees

    For smaller teams running a Light Astra-built internal business system.

  • Team

    $50/month

    6–20 employees

    For growing teams that need the system available to more employees.

  • Business

    Starting at$100/month

    21+ employees

    Custom pricing for larger teams or more complex operating requirements.

Every operation plan covers

  • Application operation and support
  • System health visibility
  • Routine maintenance
  • Basic support by email
  • Usage appropriate to the employee tier

Plans cover operating the app for your team. New features, redesigns and new development are quoted separately, and third-party costs such as hosting or paid services stay separate.

Two separate costs: the app build (custom quote, one-time project) and the monthly operation plan by employee usage.
