Software studio on subscription, Zurich
The software studio for an era in which AI writes the code.
With the Axisbits Engine™, our own software for programming with AI, the AI writes the code. A human reviews and decides, always and on everything. For you, that means a complete software department on subscription, from strategy to operations, for the monthly cost of a single full-time employee.

What we've built
What a software product of your own can do for you, we measured on ourselves first.
We have built more than 100 customer portals, platforms and SaaS products. Then we built one for ourselves, capable of taking over individualised assembly-line work, with human accountability at its core. Since then, the same team serves four times as many clients as a year ago, and each one needs 75 percent less of our time.

Why now
Software is being reinvented right now.
Software development now costs a fraction of what it did two years ago. Most software companies bolt an AI tool on top and otherwise carry on as before.
We built the Axisbits Engine™ for AI-assisted programming and aligned all our processes around it. With it, we set the standard for using AI in software development professionally and safely.
This changes a calculation every company knows. Until now, renting software was the only option. Whatever gets built belongs to the vendor, and the dependency grows every year. Your own product would have been the right alternative, but for most companies it was too expensive and too slow. Not anymore.
The money that used to go into licences becomes your own product within a few months. It belongs to you, it depends on no one, and it is an asset of your company instead of a cost item. Renting becomes owning.
The offer
A software department you subscribe to.
✓ one dedicated team
✓ one point of contact
✓ one fixed monthly fee
✓ everything we build belongs to you
In the workshop, your idea becomes a concept: what the product will do, what it brings you and how it will be built. After that, your point of contact keeps thinking along with you and pushes back when a feature isn't worth its money.
Five specialists and the Engine, which takes over everything repetitive. We define upfront what will be live after twelve weeks, and we guarantee it. Your effort: one hour every two weeks.
Your product keeps running securely and grows stage by stage. Every month you decide how much pace you need, and everything is documented so that you are never dependent on us.
AI writes, humans decide
Product Owner
Understands your business, translates your goals into instructions for the AI and reviews every result before you see it.
Designer
Defines at the start how your product looks and how it is used. Every later feature follows these design rules.
Developer
Defines the core architecture and approves every stage before it goes into your product. A stage is a group of finished features. Nothing goes live without their approval.
Tester
Defines how to tell that a feature works correctly before it is built. Then tests every stage, automatically and by hand.
Operations
Brings your product safely into operation: first to a test environment, then to a demo, and only then live. Never directly.
No no-code, no throwaway stack. Custom code that grows with you from day one and belongs to you.
Two ways to work with us
The first step is free.
Reliability
Our clients stay because we are good business partners. Not because a contract binds them.
Everything belongs to you.
Code, designs, documentation and data. If you stop, you take a finished product with complete documentation with you.
Nothing goes live without approval.
A senior developer reviews every stage before it goes into your product. With us, only a human puts AI output into production.
Your data lives where you want it.
In Zurich, in Frankfurt or wherever your industry requires. Login and access rights run on services that are independently security-audited.
One contractual partner in Zurich.

Before you ask
The most frequently asked questions.
Do I need to understand software?
No. Your point of contact talks with you about benefits, costs and deadlines, not technology. You decide what the product should do. How it gets built is our job.
How concrete does my idea need to be?
A rough idea is enough. In the workshop, we ask the questions that shape the first version and work out the concept with you.
How long am I committed?
The first three months are fixed, because that is when we guarantee the first version. After that, the subscription runs monthly, with 30 days' notice to the end of the month. Every month you can book more pace, switch to operations only, or cancel.
What does it cost?
A one-time setup followed by a monthly subscription. Because the Engine takes over everything repetitive, the monthly fee is no higher than the cost of one full-time employee. All figures are listed openly on the Build a new product page.
You'll find more answers on the pages for building new software and taking over existing software.
What happens next.
You tell us what you're planning. You get an honest assessment, the numbers for your case and an answer to whether the workshop is worth it.
Two hours with our team, online and free of charge. You don't need to prepare anything: we ask the questions that shape your first version.
You see in black and white what your product will do, what it brings you and how it will be built. Then you can decide calmly whether to hire us.
In 30 minutes, we'll work out what your own software means for your company.
In the project check with our Account Executive, you get the numbers for your case and an honest answer to whether it's worth it. If it is, we book the free workshop right away.

Latest insights

SDK stands for Software Development Kit. Online the abbreviation also turns up for a German health insurer, but in software development SDK always means a package of tools, libraries and documentation for a particular platform. It lets you build apps faster, because standard functions such as login or payment ship ready-made.

Embedded software is control code that runs directly on a hardware system, without a generic operating system in between. In 2026 embedded software has become a compliance topic, because the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) starts to bite from September 2026 with its first reporting duties — including for Swiss manufacturers active on the EU market.

Business Process Management (BPM) is the structured control of business processes through modeling, automation, measurement and optimization. The EU rules DORA and NIS2 reach Swiss companies too, by way of their supply chains.
