AI-Driven Software Development Company in Singapore
Saigon Technology pairs senior engineers with applied AI, so custom software development in Singapore ships with a smaller team, fewer rebuilds, and a lower total cost. Funded startups to enterprise teams contract with our Singapore office and build with 400+ engineers in Vietnam.
Why Singapore Businesses Choose Saigon Technology for Custom Software Development
Most Singapore buyers weigh a local agency against an offshore vendor. Saigon Technology is a software development company in Singapore with an office on Cecil Street and engineering centres in Vietnam. Here is how that changes the business case:
- Singapore office, Singapore contracts. We sign under Singapore law and invoice in SGD, so your legal and finance teams deal with a local entity.
- Nearly 200 Singapore projects delivered since 2012, with Singapore delivery led by CEO Thanh (Bruce) Pham and Phuc (Cris) Tran, Program Manager.
- Singapore clients include Mobile Boost, Minmed Group, Outperformers, Loan City, and Realitiverse.
- USD $22-$46/hr (about SGD 28-59) for senior-led, AI-native engineers, vs. a median $65/hr for a senior developer in Singapore on active contracts (Lemon.io, Q3 2026).
- Applied AI takes the repetitive build work, so a smaller senior-led team ships the same scope.
- Ho Chi Minh City runs one hour behind Singapore, so standups, sprint reviews, and fixes land inside your business day.
- ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 27001 certified by BSI, with delivery aligned to PDPA and MAS TRM.
Who we build for
- Funded startups - ship your MVP under a fixed-price engagement with scope locked upfront, then keep the same engineers as a dedicated team or your own ODC after launch, the way Loan City moved from a fixed-price build to its own ODC
- Mid-market companies - add engineers without Singapore hiring costs through staff augmentation or a dedicated team, with matched profiles in 1-2 working days
- Software companies, SaaS vendors & agencies - take on more client work without adding payroll through month-to-month offshore developers, white-label delivery, or a fixed-price build like the survey platform we delivered for Innobay Group
- Enterprise teams - move AI and domain projects into production with PDPA and MAS TRM controls and data residency in AWS Singapore, then build long-term capacity through your own ODC in Vietnam or a BOT team you take over

Fixed Price → ODC
Offshore Model
AI Build (Fixed Price)
Fixed Price
Loan City
A Singapore fintech arrived with AI-generated requirements and no roadmap. Two weeks of discovery rescoped them into a buildable MVP, then a fixed-price three-month build of a three-portal loan comparison platform for borrowers, lenders, and admins, which matured into an ODC after go-live. Focus: Singpass identity, security-first architecture, disciplined scope control.
Singpass identity verification with MyInfo auto-fill
Role-based access, document upload and preview, and real-time application tracking
Rule-based loan matching engine
A scoring algorithm with asynchronous processing - not a machine-learning model - leaving an auditable matching trail

Over the past year, collaborating with Saigon Technology Solution company, we have brought high-quality financial software solutions.

Saigon Technology provided the expert advice and technical development needed for our platform. I truly appreciate their professionalism and ongoing support.
Jason Soo
CEO of Loan City, Singapore
During our collaboration, Mr. Thanh and his company, Saigon Technology, have consistently demonstrated world-class leadership and execution in complex fintech projects. His ability to scale and lead high-performing engineering teams, while maintaining cost-efficiency and product quality, has been critical to our technology operations. His strategic insights and leadership enabled us to significantly improve system stability and deployment velocity.
Abe Jarrett
Senior Vice President of Software Engineering at Origence, USA
I have worked with Thanh (Bruce) Pham on several projects, and I admire his professionalism and his dedication to delivering high-quality work. He is responsive when answering emails and calls, as well as making sure that work always gets done on time. I am glad to be working with him and hope to continue working with him.
Mr. RJ Macasaet
Head of Partnership - DMI Global
As the Owner and Director of ISMS Global, Australia, I understand perfectly how challenging it is to find a support team of skilled and professional developers to help grow a system. A few years ago, I found Saigon Technology Software (STS), led by Mr. Thanh Pham (CEO), and I have never looked back. STS has single-handedly taken ISMS camp management software from a concept on a napkin to an international product used by major companies around the world. If you are looking for a trusted partner to help you, then you should be talking to Thanh Pham.
Mr. Paul Upson
Director of ISMS Global, Australia
The Custom Software Development Company Behind Nearly 200 Singapore Projects
Saigon Technology is a software development company founded in 2012, with 400+ engineers in Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang and an office on Cecil Street, Singapore. Senior engineers set the architecture and review every pull request while applied AI handles repetitive build work, so the same roadmap needs fewer people and fewer rebuilds.
Saigon Technology's 30+ AI engineers work across machine learning, MLOps, data engineering, and generative AI, with 50+ AI projects delivered. Before you commit budget, you can inspect working demos of fracture detection, semantic search, and OCR in our Research Labs. Models can run in AWS Singapore when data residency is contractual.
Saigon Technology's Singapore office is at 20 Cecil St, #14-00 & 15-00 PLUS, Singapore 049705. Contracts are signed under Singapore law and invoiced in SGD. For EDG, PSG, or OIP applications, we prepare the scope, development schedule, and qualifying cost documentation your consultant needs. Office hours: Mon-Fri 09:00-18:00 SGT, by appointment.
Saigon Technology holds ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 27001 certificates issued by BSI UK. Delivery is aligned to PDPA and MAS TRM. Data can stay in AWS Singapore (ap-southeast-1), Azure Southeast Asia, or GCP asia-southeast1. A 72-hour PDPC breach-notification workflow is written into every SOW.
Saigon Technology runs five engagement models behind one relationship: staff augmentation, dedicated teams, fixed-price, ODC, and BOT. Loan City started with a fixed-price three-month build and moved to an ODC after go-live.
Saigon Technology screens every candidate in three separate rounds: Talent Acquisition, a Tech Lead, and HR. Matched profiles reach you in 1-2 working days, and you interview the shortlist yourself before anyone joins your team.
Every Saigon Technology engagement can start with a two-week risk-free trial on real work, and you walk away at no cost if the fit is wrong. If a developer later leaves or does not fit, we replace them at no extra cost, and the outgoing engineer briefs the replacement.
Loan City onboarded 50+ lenders and 2,000+ borrowers within three months of launching the platform Saigon Technology built. For Realitiverse, a Singapore fitness and mental wellness platform, we built a fixed-price app with AI search for exercises and meditation.
