Your Trusted Partner to Bring Software Ideas to Life

New product development means discovery, design, architecture, and build — end to end. BlastAsia has taken software from a blank page to a live product for 25 years, across hundreds of engagements, before AI-native delivery was even part of the toolkit. However you need yours built — fixed-price Turnkey, continuous AI-native xDD, or a traditional staffed Dedicated Developer Team — that same depth of experience is behind it.

✓ 25 Years, Since 2001

✓ Full Lifecycle: Discovery to Launch

✓ AI-Native or Traditional — Your Call

THE PROBLEM

Most Software Partners Only Offer One Shape — And Make You Fit It

Fixed-scope firms can't flex into ongoing work once the contract's signed. Staffing firms can't quote you a fixed price for a bounded project. AI-native shops can't hand you a traditional team you direct day to day. Whichever one you talk to first becomes the shape of your engagement, whether or not it actually fits what you need.

Fixed-scope firms can't go ongoing

SolarOS was designed from the ground up for net-metering statutory clocks, audit-grade REC lineage, and MRV emissions reporting. These aren't features grafted onto a generic asset-management platform. They're the engineered core of a compliance-first solar system.

Staffing firms can't do fixed price

Every REC issued carries an end-to-end, auditable chain from generation data to certificate — so a buyer, auditor, or regulator asking for lineage gets a defensible answer, not a reconstruction project.

AI-native shops can't do traditional staffing

Every platform BlastAsia delivers is owned outright by the client. Full source code, deployed on your own infrastructure, with no recurring license fees and no dependency on a vendor's pricing decisions or product roadmap.

THREE PATHS

Three Paths to a New Build

All three models run through the same 25 years of engineering discipline. What changes is how the engagement is shaped — and priced.

FIXED SCOPE

Turnkey Development

One project, delivered start to finish, at a fixed price and fixed scope — built on the Xamun Software Factory's AI-native pipeline.

Best when: you know what you're building and want one clean delivery, not an open-ended relationship.

CONTINUOUS

xDD (Continuous Delivery)

Ongoing, AI-native delivery with a fixed monthly scope and fee — every sprint ships working software, and the roadmap can evolve as you learn.

Best when: your product's roadmap is still evolving and you want AI-native speed without re-scoping a new project every time priorities shift.

CORE SEGMENT

Dedicated Developer Team

Utilities and grid operators tracking Renewable Portfolio Standard compliance across distributed generation connected to their network.

Best when: you want to direct the roadmap yourself, day to day, with a team you staff rather than a pipeline you feed requirements into.

HOW TO CHOOSE

Three Questions That Point You to the Right Model

If you're not sure which path fits, these three questions usually settle it.

Do you know the full scope today?

If yes, and it's not expected to change — Turnkey. If the scope is still evolving, or you expect it to change as you learn — xDD.

Is this a one-time build or an ongoing product?

One-time, bounded delivery — Turnkey. An ongoing product you'll keep evolving — xDD or a Dedicated Dev Team, depending on the next question.

Do you want AI-native speed, or a team you direct yourself?

AI-native speed, spec-driven — xDD or Turnkey. A traditional staffed team you manage day to day — Dedicated Dev Team.

PROOF

New Builds, Delivered Both Ways

Two real engagements — one built through the Xamun Software Factory, one delivered by a traditional staffed team — both taken from idea to a working, delivered system.

HEALTHTECH · AI-NATIVE BUILD

152-Screen Digital Health Platform, Built in ~20 Weeks

BlastAsia (via the Xamun Software Factory) built a comprehensive digital health platform for a healthtech startup — role-based portals for patients, doctors, and employment counsellors, covering medication management, patient diary, community features, pharma integrations, employment support, and content management.

Fixed Scope, Fixed Price Projects

BlastAsia built a new web and mobile system for an agricultural cooperative, tracking berry harvest end to end — from farm, through warehouse and cold storage, to sorting, packing, and release — with QR/barcode scanning and direct accounting-system integration. Delivered as a Dedicated Developer Team engagement.

Not Sure Which Model Fits Your Build?

Tell us what you're trying to build. We'll help you figure out whether it's a Turnkey project, an xDD engagement, or a Dedicated Dev Team — before you commit to anything.

SOFTWARE LIFECYCLE SOLUTIONS

Already Have Software to Look After?

New App Build is one of three Software Lifecycle Solutions. If your software already exists, one of these two is probably the better starting point.

APP MAINTENANCE

Keep It Running, Keep It Improving

Bug fixes, performance tuning, and ongoing enhancements for software that's already live — whether it was built by BlastAsia or someone else.

Future-Proof Your Legacy App

Refactor in place, or reverse-engineer and rebuild at AI speed onto a modern stack — without a multi-year rewrite.

Powered by Xamun.AI

The Engine Behind Turnkey and xDD

Both the Turnkey and xDD paths run on the Xamun Software Factory — a spec-first methodology where every requirement is precisely defined and agreed before any code is written, then accelerated with AI-assisted code generation and expert engineering review at every sprint.

​A Dedicated Developer Team doesn't run through this factory — it's a traditional staffed team working directly in your stack, which is exactly the point for engagements where you want to direct the work yourself rather than feed requirements into a build pipeline.

BlastAsia doesn't yet have its own dedicated Software Factory explainer page — this links out to Xamun's own site for the deeper technical explanation.

80%

Codebase Auto-Generated

On Turnkey and xDD builds — AI generates routine code so engineers focus on business logic and edge cases.

2wk

Sprint Cadence

Working, tested software every two weeks — compliance logic tested continuously, not discovered broken at go-live.

 

Spec-First

No Requirement Drift

Every requirement precisely specified and agreed before development begins.

100%

Code Ownership

Full source code delivered to you on every model — Turnkey, xDD, or Dedicated Dev Team. No vendor lock-in, ever.
