From a single internal tool to a full platform — all owned by you.
Inventory, finance, HR, and operations in one place — built around your actual processes.
Pipelines, support, and automation that match how your team sells and serves.
Multi-tenant products with billing, dashboards, and analytics, built to scale.
Dashboards and admin panels that replace fragile spreadsheets and manual work.
We architect before we build — data models, API contracts, and service boundaries reviewed with you up front — so the software scales instead of buckling at version two. You get senior engineers, fortnightly demos, and full ownership. And because we're in Nepal, you get that quality at 60–80% lower cost than a US or European firm.

A company that only builds custom software will always tell you to build custom software, so treat this section with the suspicion it deserves and then use it anyway. Off-the-shelf wins more often than we would like. If your process is genuinely ordinary, accounting, payroll, basic inventory, an existing product will be cheaper, already debugged, and maintained by somebody else forever. Paying a subscription to avoid owning a codebase is frequently the right trade.
Custom earns its cost in three situations. When the workflow is the business, and bending it to fit a product would remove the thing you are actually good at. When the tools exist but none of them talk to each other, and the real product is the integration. And when you have outgrown the ceiling of what a package allows, usually noticed as a spreadsheet that has quietly become load-bearing.
The honest middle path is to buy the ordinary parts and build the part that is yours. Most of the systems worth having are an off-the-shelf core with something specific bolted onto it, not a rewrite of everything from nothing.
This is the requirement that surprises people halfway through building an ERP, a POS or any system that bills a customer. Under the Electronic Billing Procedure, 2074, software that issues electronic tax invoices in Nepal has to be registered with the Inland Revenue Department and able to submit billing data to the CBMS portal. It is not a formality you bolt on at the end. Approval requires the software provider to file an application with a technical architecture description, sample invoices and a user manual.
Electronic billing is mandatory above NPR 10 crore of annual turnover, and NPR 5 crore in hospitality. Below those thresholds a VAT-registered business can adopt it voluntarily, which is worth deciding before the invoice module is designed rather than after. Retrofitting CBMS submission into a system that was never shaped around it is the expensive version.
So it belongs in the first conversation. If your system will issue a tax invoice, say so at scoping, and ask whoever quotes you how they intend to handle IRD registration and what it adds to the timeline. A quote that does not mention it has probably not accounted for it.
Yes, if it issues electronic tax invoices. Under the Electronic Billing Procedure, 2074, the software has to be registered with the Inland Revenue Department and able to submit billing data to the CBMS portal, and approval requires an application covering the technical architecture, sample invoices and a user manual. Electronic billing is mandatory above NPR 10 crore in annual turnover, or NPR 5 crore in hospitality, and voluntary for VAT-registered businesses below that. Decide before the invoicing module is designed, because retrofitting CBMS submission afterwards costs considerably more than building for it.
Custom software in Nepal typically starts from NPR 300,000 for a focused internal tool, with full ERP/CRM/SaaS platforms ranging higher based on modules, users, and integrations. International clients are quoted in USD (from roughly $8,000). AntByte Labs gives a fixed-price quote after a free discovery call.
Custom software is built specifically for your workflow — unlike off-the-shelf tools you bend your business around. We build ERPs, CRMs, SaaS products, dashboards, and internal tools that fit exactly how your team works, then own and extend over time.
A focused tool takes 6–10 weeks; a full platform takes 3–6 months, delivered in two-week sprints with a working demo each sprint. We start with the highest-value module so you get something usable early, not at the very end.
Yes. We integrate with accounting, payment, ERP, and third-party APIs — and build secure APIs so your new software talks to the tools you already use. Migrations from spreadsheets or legacy systems are part of what we do.
Yes. We build custom ERPs (inventory, finance, HR, operations) and CRMs (sales pipeline, support, automation) tailored to your processes — including offline-first systems for environments where connectivity is unreliable.
Yes. Full source code, database, and documentation transfer to you on final payment. No licensing traps, no per-seat fees to us, no vendor lock-in — the software is yours to run and extend.
