Five practices. One AI-augmented engineering team.

Wai Tech is a specialist technology studio. We pair senior engineers with Claude Code, Cursor and AI prototyping tools from day one, so you get a working prototype in days, production-grade software in weeks, and the rigour of seasoned review behind every line. We're also the team behind ARC, the investor engagement platform.

01 · SAAS DEVELOPMENT

SaaS Development

We design and build SaaS products with AI in the room from the first working session. Prototype in days, ship in weeks, scale to multi-tenant production. You get the speed of AI-augmented delivery and the rigour of senior engineering behind it.

Typical engagements run 3-6 months, roughly half the conventional timeline. A senior squad of 3-5 pairs with AI tooling for speed, keeps senior engineers accountable for the rigour.

What you get

  • AI-accelerated discovery: interview synthesis, competitor teardowns, and problem framing compressed from days into hours
  • Working prototype inside the first week, pressure-tested against real data before architecture is committed
  • Production-grade codebase paired with Claude Code, Cursor and senior review, fast, not reckless
  • Clean architecture: one Postgres, one language on the server, predictable deploys, evaluation harness for any LLM features
  • Multi-tenant data model, billing, observability and on-call baked in, so it lives past launch, not just to demo day

02 · IT CONSULTING

IT Consulting

Senior engineers embedded with your team to untangle legacy, modernise stacks, and wire AI into delivery. A modernisation in 2026 is not finished until LLM tooling is rolled out safely across your engineers, support and operations.

Two-week audit sprints followed by open-ended embeds. We keep team sizes small and scope concrete.

What you get

  • Technical audit: codebase, infrastructure, delivery process, team shape
  • AI readiness review: where LLM tooling multiplies velocity, where it adds risk, and what to roll out first
  • AEO and citation audit: how ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity currently describe your business
  • Prioritised roadmap with named risks and measurable outcomes
  • Hands-on pairing to unblock the hardest calls, not just advice from the sidelines
  • Cloud, DevOps and evaluation review, cost, reliability, deploy cadence, AI guardrails

03 · AEO - ANSWER ENGINE OPTIMISATION

AEO - Answer Engine Optimisation

Search is changing. When a customer asks an AI assistant about your category, it answers in one voice, not ten blue links. We make sure that voice says your name.

Typical AEO engagements begin with a 2-week audit, followed by 3–6 months of content and technical work with monthly reporting.

What you get

  • Citation audit: how ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity describe you today
  • Content engineering: structured, quotable passages built for LLM synthesis
  • Schema.org markup and technical SEO re-engineering
  • Monthly scorecards: citation share, paraphrase accuracy, outbound click-through
  • Playbooks your marketing team can keep running after we leave

04 · WEB & MOBILE ENGINEERING

Web & Mobile Engineering

Marketing sites, dashboards, web apps and native mobile, first-draft UI generated with AI, then finished by senior design and engineering. You see a clickable prototype in days and a production-ready build in a fraction of the traditional timeline.

Marketing builds take 4-8 weeks with AI-accelerated prototyping. Product web or mobile apps run 2-5 months with two-week cycles and weekly releases.

What you get

  • AI-generated first-pass UI (v0, Lovable, Figma Make) refined and hardened by senior design
  • Marketing sites that score top-decile on Core Web Vitals and surface cleanly to answer engines, AEO-ready by default
  • Web apps with a staging environment by day two, production release path by week one
  • iOS and Android apps in Swift / Kotlin, or cross-platform in React Native / Flutter
  • Accessibility baked in: WCAG 2.2 AA as default, not an afterthought

05 · API ENGINEERING

API Engineering

Your API contract is a product, and increasingly, its biggest consumer is an AI agent. REST, GraphQL and event-driven APIs designed for both human integrators and LLM tool-use, with versioning, deprecation, and evaluation built in.

Discrete API design engagements take 4-8 weeks. Ongoing platform work runs as a retained senior squad.

What you get

  • API design your integrators can read in one sitting, and that LLM assistants can explain accurately
  • OpenAPI / AsyncAPI contracts, generated SDKs, Claude and ChatGPT tool definitions, changelogs that stay accurate
  • Evaluation harness for agentic usage: can an agent actually complete the workflow end-to-end?
  • Observability: request tracing, latency budgets, error taxonomies, human and agent traffic separated
  • Rate limiting, auth, and quotas that match the way your customers (and their agents) integrate

Who we work with

Ambitious teams with a real product to ship.

We're opinionated about fit. The engagements that work best are ones where there's a clear owner on the client side, a real problem worth solving, and a willingness to ship weekly. We turn down work that doesn't fit.

Listed companies

Investor engagement, secure data rooms, board-pack workflows. Our ARC platform powers the stakeholder side of the listed business.

Growth-stage SaaS

Post-PMF teams scaling from one product to a platform. We embed senior squads alongside your engineers and ship alongside them.

Professional services

Law, finance, advisory and consulting firms turning bespoke processes into productised, SOC 2-grade platforms.

Government & enterprise

Modernisations, API platforms and developer portals. Security-cleared, audit-ready delivery with reporting lines to match.

Frequently asked

Straight answers to the usual questions.

What kind of teams does Wai Tech work with?
We work with listed companies, growth-stage SaaS businesses, and professional services firms that have a serious product or platform to ship. Typical engagements start at AUD $80k and run for three months or longer.
How is Wai Tech different from a dev shop or a consultancy?
We run senior-only squads paired with AI tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, v0, Figma AI) from day one, so delivery compounds. No offshore handoffs, no padded teams, no account managers in front of the builders. Most builds ship in roughly half the time a conventional studio would quote, without compromising on code quality.
How do you use AI in delivery?
Every engineer pairs with Claude Code or Cursor for production code. First-pass UI is generated with v0, Lovable or Figma AI and then refined by senior design. Discovery notes and competitor research are synthesised with LLM tooling. For any AI-powered feature we ship, an evaluation harness ships alongside it. We treat AI the same way we treat Postgres, a core tool, not an experiment.
Do you offer Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO)?
Yes, as a standalone practice. We run citation audits across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity, re-engineer your content and schema to be quotable, and set up a monthly scorecard you can take to the board. Every site we build is AEO-ready by default.
Do you work on fixed price or time and materials?
Most engagements run on a monthly retainer against a shared scope and a named team. We price on outcomes and capacity, not on hours. For discrete projects (a marketing site, a specific API), we offer fixed price.
Where are you based and where do you work?
Wai Tech is headquartered in Sydney, Australia. Our team is distributed across Australia, New Zealand and the UK. We work remotely as default and travel on-site for discovery and key milestones.
Can you take over an existing codebase?
Yes. Around half of our engagements begin as a rescue or a modernisation. We start with a two-week audit, a concrete, written account of what we found and what we would do next, before committing to build.
Do you offer AI / LLM engineering as part of SaaS work?
Yes. LLM-powered features, RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, and evaluation tooling are treated as first-class product engineering. See our AEO service for Answer Engine Optimisation specifically.
