Zilligent Labs

Boutique software studio

Your idea. Built right. On budget.

We turn software ideas into production-quality products with fixed pricing and no scope surprises. AI-assisted development — directed and owned by senior engineers.

  • Fixed pricing
  • You own the code
  • Weekly updates
  • Test-first quality
  • Staging from day one

Currently accepting founding clients. Early partners get priority scheduling and hands-on attention.

Sound familiar?

You’re not missing a tool — you’re missing a delivery system with accountability.

  • AI builders hit a wall

    You tried an AI builder but it couldn’t handle your business rules, permissions, or integrations.

  • Agency sticker shock

    An agency quoted six figures for what feels like a mid-size product.

  • Freelancer risk

    A freelancer went quiet mid-project — with your deposit and your timeline.

  • Prototype vs. production

    Your demo works in a video call but breaks with real users and real data.

How we’re different

Process isn’t red tape — it’s how fixed pricing stays honest.

  • Clarity

    We define what to build — and why — before engineering starts. Signed scope, explicit assumptions.

    Discovery → design sign-off → build

  • Reliability

    Fixed-price quotes for agreed scope. Test-first development and automated quality checks on every change.

    Predictable budget, fewer regressions

  • Transparency

    Private staging from early builds, weekly updates, and full source + docs at handoff. You own your product logic.

    No black box, no lock-in

“Varies” means it depends on the vendor or engagement model — not a guarantee.

See it in action

John’s journey — from chaos to a client portal

A relatable story: custom workflows, permissions, and accountability — the kind of product AI builders struggle with.

  • The problem

    John runs a 15-person accounting firm. Tax season is chaos — clients email documents everywhere, call for status updates, and nothing is tracked.

  • John tries DIY

    He tried an AI builder. It generated a basic upload form — but no role permissions, no audit trail, no deadline tracking. His team couldn’t use it.

  • John finds Zilligent

    Free 45-minute consultation. We mapped what he needed — and what he didn’t. No commitment required.

  • Discovery & design

    We documented workflows, roles, and edge cases. John approved the design before code. A signed scope document — no surprises.

  • Build & review

    Every Friday, a working preview on a private staging site. New ideas? We gave a clear cost estimate before starting — no hidden charges.

  • Launch

    Five weeks later: a client portal his team actually uses. On budget. Automated tests catch issues before clients do.

  • After launch

    John’s on a monthly support plan. When regulations changed, we updated the workflow in a day — while competitors still use email chains.

Led by Premdeep

16 years building software at companies you’ve heard of — and startups you haven’t. Engineering background includes FAANG experience and a Master’s in Engineering from an Ivy League university.

Domains: telecom, cloud, commerce, and enterprise solutions. Roles spanning development, SRE, and requirements — so we know what breaks at scale and what must be specified before code ships.
