Custom Software Development From Empiric Infotech LLP
Empiric Infotech LLP is a custom software development company for Australian businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools, or run a product with customers and a roadmap to match. You get a remote developer, or a small dedicated team, working full time on your software: operations and job management systems, customer portals, integrations, mobile apps and AI features. The day lines up better than most expect. There are 3.5 hours of overlap with your working day, 2:00 to 5:30 PM AEST, developers stay live until midnight AEST, and Perth teams get 12:00 noon to 10:00 PM AWST. Custom software in Australia has to respect the Privacy Act and the Australian Privacy Principles, stand up to security questionnaires built on the ACSC Essential Eight, and talk to Xero or MYOB. Your developer builds all of that inside your own cloud account, in an Australian region when your data needs to stay onshore. Our Australian work includes Architecture CRM and Acceleread. Invoices are in AUD, issued without GST, paid by BPAY, direct EFT or wire, and a senior team lead checks and tests every release before it goes live.
What our custom software development company delivers for Australian businesses
Software built around how your business runs, by a developer who stays to maintain it.
Operations software that replaces spreadsheets
Job management, scheduling, quoting, inventory and approvals built around your process, with role-based access, audit trails and reports your accountant can work from.
Xero, MYOB and the rest of your stack
Two-way sync with Xero or MYOB, ABN Lookup for supplier and customer checks, courier and Australia Post APIs, HubSpot, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, with queues and retries so a failed sync raises an alert.
The Privacy Act and the APPs
Collection notices, access and correction requests, retention and deletion rules, and audit logs that support a quick assessment under the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme. Data stays in AWS Sydney, Azure Australia East or Google Cloud Sydney when it has to stay onshore.
Essential Eight in the software you own
Multi-factor authentication, restricted admin access, patched dependencies, and backups proven by test restores, documented in a form your customers' security reviewers recognise.
Payments for your Australian customers
Stripe with BECS Direct Debit or PayTo for recurring payments, GST shown on the tax invoices you issue to Australian customers, and AUD alongside other currencies for overseas accounts.
Mobile apps and AI features
iOS and Android apps in Flutter or FlutterFlow, and AI features such as document processing, assistants and search over your own records, with clear rules on which data the model sees. Acceleread, an Australian speed-reading app, runs on iOS, Android, macOS and Apple Vision Pro.
Messages and prices that follow Australian rules
Marketing email and SMS sent the way the Spam Act 2003 requires: consent recorded at sign-up, the sender clearly identified and an unsubscribe that works in every message. Prices shown to consumers include GST, as the Australian Consumer Law expects, and renewal terms are clear before anyone pays.

How an Australian custom software engagement starts
A developer on your project in the first week, working the hours that suit Australian time zones.
An afternoon call
Thirty minutes after lunch AEST, or late morning in Perth. You walk us through the process or product, the systems around it and what done looks like.
A scope and one developer
Within 24 hours you get a written scope and an introduction to one developer who fits your stack. The NDA and IP assignment are signed before any work.
A trial week
Your developer starts within 48 hours on a real task. Reviewed, tested work arrives in the first week, and on day 7 you choose whether to continue, with a full refund if you decide it is not right.
Monthly in AUD
One AUD invoice a month, issued without GST for you to self-assess, paid by BPAY, direct EFT or wire. No super or payroll tax, and seven days' notice to stop.
Custom software development pricing for Australian businesses
Monthly for a full-time developer on an ongoing roadmap, 160 to 172 hours billed upfront, or hourly for a defined job such as one Xero integration. Both are invoiced in AUD without GST, and a senior team lead checks and tests the work on either plan. No setup or recruitment fees, no superannuation and no payroll tax.
Hourly plan
- A dedicated developer, exclusive to you while you have hours booked
- Pay as you go - billed by the hour, time tracked, a weekly report
- Best for short, defined work; no monthly commitment
- Code review and pre-delivery testing by a senior lead, built in
Monthly plan

- Best for long-term, multi-track work; add a developer in 48 hours, no re-contracting
The first 90 days of a custom software engagement in Australia
Run through your afternoons and evenings, with reviewed work waiting each morning.
- Week 1
Access and a first reviewed change
Repository and cloud access, a local environment, a map of how releases happen today and one pull request reviewed and merged. Day 7 is the trial decision.
- Month 1
The first process live
The workflow that costs your team the most time, rebuilt or automated and in production, with personal information stored in an Australian region where required.
- Month 2
Xero or MYOB and the other integrations
Accounting sync, payments and the connections to your other systems, each shipped with tests and alerts for failed syncs.
- Month 3
An Essential Eight review and the next quarter
MFA, admin access, patching and backups checked against the Essential Eight, performance tuned, and the next quarter planned with your developer.

Why Australian businesses choose a dedicated developer for custom software
Custom software keeps changing after it goes live, because the business it supports keeps changing. Australian agencies usually quote a fixed stage and charge variations for the rest, and senior developers in Sydney and Melbourne are slow to hire and expensive to keep. A dedicated developer gives you one engineer who learns your operations and stays to change the software as they change.
The time difference works in your favour. Planning happens in your afternoon, developers stay live until midnight AEST, and reviewed work is usually waiting the next morning. Perth gets the widest window, 12:00 noon to 10:00 PM AWST.
You carry none of the employment overhead: no superannuation, payroll tax or Fair Work obligations, and AUD invoices issued without GST. Since 2020 we have delivered 375+ projects for 200+ clients in 25+ countries. You own the code and accounts from day one, a senior team lead checks and tests every release, and seven days' notice ends the engagement.
It suits Australian businesses whose software is already part of the daily work: a product with paying customers, a job or operations system the team opens every morning, or integrations that need attention each time a supplier changes theirs. Most start with one developer and keep the engagement running for six to eighteen months, adding a second developer only when the backlog calls for it.
