Custom apps built for Australian businesses.
Booking systems, quote calculators, client portals, loyalty programs, and more — scoped, built, and maintained by Orion Web Service. Every app is custom to your business. No templates. No SaaS lock-in.
Most off-the-shelf SaaS tools are built for the average business. They charge monthly fees in perpetuity, enforce workflows that do not match how you actually operate, and deliver a generic experience your customers immediately recognise as third-party. Orion builds custom applications that are designed around your specific workflow, branded to your identity, and owned entirely by you at delivery.
Built on your brief. Delivered to your stack.
Orion apps are built with React and Next.js — fast, scalable, and deployable to any modern hosting environment. They integrate with the tools your business already uses and work across every device without requiring a download. The ten types listed below represent common builds. If your requirement is different, that is not a problem. Everything here starts with a conversation.
App types we build
These are common starting points. Every build is scoped to your specific brief — the list below is illustrative, not exhaustive.
Quote Engine
An embeddable pricing and quote calculator configured to your services, pricing logic, and conditions. Customers get an instant estimate. You get qualified leads with context before the first conversation.
Booking System
Custom appointment booking with real-time availability, automated confirmations, and reminder sequences. Built to your workflow — not retrofitted from a generic SaaS product.
Lead Qualifier
A multi-step intake form with conditional logic that scores, filters, and routes enquiries before they reach your team. Eliminates low-quality leads and gives your sales process better inputs.
Client Portal
A secure, branded login area where clients access project updates, documents, invoices, and approvals. Replaces scattered email threads with a single structured environment.
Review Collector
An automated post-service sequence — SMS or email — that drives Google and Facebook reviews from satisfied customers while flagging dissatisfied ones before they go public.
Loyalty App
A digital stamp card and rewards program. Customers register, earn points on purchases, and redeem rewards. Replaces paper cards with a tracked, branded digital experience.
Product Catalogue
A searchable, filterable catalogue of your products or services with displayed or price-on-request pricing. Reduces inbound enquiry volume while improving buyer decision quality.
Event Manager
Event registration, waitlists, ticketing, and automated reminders. Post-event survey and attendance reporting included. Handles everything from single workshops to multi-session programs.
Staff Scheduler
Internal shift scheduling with availability management, leave requests, and team notifications. Reduces the administrative overhead of managing variable rosters across multiple staff.
NDIS Intake
A compliant participant onboarding form with service agreement generation, support need capture, and document upload. Built to NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission standards.
Do not see what you need? Every app Orion builds starts with a brief. If you have a specific workflow or operational problem, bring it to us.
Discuss a Custom BriefHow it works
Brief
You tell us what the app needs to do. We ask the right questions to understand the workflow, the end users, and the commercial outcome the app needs to support.
Scope
We produce a scope document covering delivery phases, technical decisions, timeline, and a fixed quote. Nothing moves to build without your sign-off.
Build
Development runs in structured phases with regular check-ins. You see working builds before they are final. Feedback is incorporated before the next phase begins.
Deploy
The app goes live on Asteri Hosting or your own infrastructure. Full handover documentation is included. Every deployment is tested before it reaches your users.
Maintain
Ongoing support, updates, and hosting are available through Orion. Alternatively, full code ownership transfers to your team at completion — your choice.

You own the code. Full stop.
Every app delivered by Orion Web Service transfers full code ownership to the client at completion. There is no proprietary platform dependency, no ongoing licence fee to Orion unless you choose continued maintenance support, and no lock-in of any kind. If you want to take the codebase to another developer after delivery, that is entirely your right.
Web apps. Any device. No download required.
Orion builds responsive web applications — accessible from any browser on any device without requiring an app store download. Progressive Web App configuration is available for projects that need offline access or home screen installation. Native iOS and Android builds can be scoped separately for projects that specifically require them.
Launch is not the end of the engagement.
Orion can host and maintain your app on Asteri Hosting with ongoing support, security updates, and minor changes included. Or we hand the codebase over to your team at go-live. Both paths are supported and neither is mandatory.
Full code handover
Complete codebase and documentation delivered at project completion.
Asteri Hosting
Managed hosting with security monitoring, updates, and minor change support.
Ongoing support
Orion remains available for enhancements, integrations, and second-phase builds.
