Our services

Our software development services

Whichever way you build — a full squad, a few senior specialists, or a whole product from scratch — we shape the team around it. Our software development services span the full lifecycle — design, build, test, and operations — each backed by senior engineers, Agile methodology, and AI-augmented delivery.

Dedicated Development Team

Our dedicated software development team model gives you a cross-functional engineering team, led by a Squad Leader who owns AI enablement — agents set up, orchestrated, and managed as part of delivery. Recruited, onboarded, and embedded in your product.

AI Product Development

We build AI features that ship to production: LLM integrations, RAG pipelines, agentic workflows, multimodal document intelligence, and enterprise AI automations — governed for regulated industries.

Training, Coaching & Enablement Services

Capability that stays after we leave — that's the point of our training, coaching and enablement services: hands-on AI enablement, from adopting agents to redesigning how your teams deliver, plus Scrum Alliance Authorized Training (CSM, CSPO, CSP-SM, CSP-PO).

Why Axon Active

A custom software development company built for the long term

Most custom software development companies run the bench, rotating engineers between accounts. We don’t. At Axon Active, we run your custom software development with engineers handpicked per stack at kickoff and kept on your product — 100% dedicated, never rotated.

100% handpicked per stack, no bench, no rotation

We match skillset over headcount. Every engineer is hired for a specific engagement at kickoff — matched by stack, product domain, and team culture, across 80+ active dedicated squads. No bench, no rotational seats, no shadow engineers. See how to hire a dedicated development team →

17+ years of compounding domain knowledge

We believe domain knowledge is always the key. AI brings faster delivery — the speed comes from the tools — but quality comes from domain depth and security guardrails. Most tools take weeks to learn; domain knowledge takes years to build. See our story →

Inside Axon Active

Software development in Vietnam, Swiss-governed

Our delivery engine is software development capacity in Vietnam — 650+ engineers across Ho Chi Minh City, Thu Duc, Da Nang, and Can Tho. As a Swiss-owned Vietnam software development company, we pair that scale with the oversight and quality gates enterprises expect.

The team delivers marketplace software development with React, Python, and PHP

Services — Outsourced software development, without the outsourcing feeling
In-house, offshore

Outsourced software development, without the outsourcing feeling

Traditional outsourced software development saves you cost but costs you control. We run software development outsourcing as a dedicated team you direct — one that works like an in-house team, with full visibility into the code, the progress, and the people.

AI path routing

Which AI service do you actually need?

AI plays two roles in software: as the product you’re building, or as the method that ships it faster. One builds AI features; the other uses AI to build.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does an engagement with Axon Active start?

It starts with an initial call. We listen to what you’re building, your needs, and your expectations. We walk you through what we offer and propose a team shape, timeline, and pricing model. No deck, no sales script. If we’re not the right fit, we’ll tell you. If we are, we move to contract discussion and kick off hiring and onboarding.

Can we combine multiple services into one engagement?

Most of our larger engagements do. Common pairings: Dedicated Development Team + Specialist Consulting (Product Owner as a Service) — the offshore squad plus a specialist to bridge business and delivery; AI Product Development + Data Engineering — AI features need clean, accessible data; DevOps & Cloud Services + Dedicated Team — engineering capacity plus the cloud expertise to operate what gets built; Training, Coaching & Enablement + Dedicated Team — helping internal teams adopt the practices the offshore squad already uses. Every engagement runs under one contract and one delivery lead, so there’s no procurement maze. If a combination doesn’t fit your situation, we’ll suggest a phased approach.

How is pricing structured across your services?

Most services use a monthly per-engineer or per-specialist rate that includes everything operational — recruiting, HR, office, equipment, training, internal mentoring, and team coordination. There are no setup fees and no exit fees. What’s not included: third-party licenses specific to your product, and on-site travel costs.

What security and quality certifications does Axon Active hold?

We hold ISO/IEC 27001:2022 for information security management — the standard financial services and healthcare industries treat as a baseline. We’re also certified to ISO 9001:2015 for quality management and operate to GDPR and Swiss FADP standards in all client engagements involving personal data. For specific industry compliance frameworks (FINMA for Swiss financial services, IEC 62304 for medical software, and similar), we work alongside your compliance team to meet the requirements — we don’t claim certifications we don’t hold. Certificates and audit reports are available under NDA during the discovery phase.

How do you handle GDPR, FADP, and EU AI Act compliance in delivery?

Compliance isn’t a checkbox at the end of the engagement — it’s baked into how teams are set up. GDPR / FADP: data flows are mapped during discovery, personal data classification is part of every system design, and our delivery teams in Vietnam work only with pseudonymized or anonymized test data when production data residency rules apply. EU AI Act: for AI features, we classify system risk level (minimal / limited / high) early, design the documentation trail (model cards, training data lineage, eval datasets) required for high-risk systems, and integrate human-in-the-loop where the Act requires it. We work with your DPO and compliance team — not around them. Industry-specific frameworks (FINMA, IEC 62304, HIPAA) are handled alongside your domain experts.

Where are your teams, and how does communication work?

Our delivery teams are in Vietnam (Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City, Thu Duc, Can Tho), with onsite specialists embedded at client sites. For EU clients, there’s a 4-hour daily overlap between CET afternoon and Vietnamese morning-to-midday — that’s when standups, planning, and live discussions happen. For clients in other regions (US, APAC, Middle East), we adjust the team’s working hours to maintain at least 1-2 hours of live overlap with your business day. Outside the overlap window, work is async. Working language is English, over your Slack or Teams.

What custom software development services does Axon Active offer?

As a full-service software development company, we provide end-to-end custom software development services across six engagement models — dedicated teams, specialist consulting, AI product development, DevOps & cloud, data engineering, and training & coaching.

Are you a custom software development company or an agency?

We’re a 100% Swiss-owned custom software development company, not a staffing agency. Where a custom software development agency rents out individual developers, we build and keep a dedicated team on your product — a long-term engineering partner.
