What BlastAsia does

BlastAsia Inc. is a Philippines-headquartered software product engineering services and vertical-SaaS company founded in 2001, operating across 10+ countries through partner presences in the UK, Singapore, and the US. The firm sells three primary engagement models: an xDD Service that provides AI-augmented Scrum teams on story-point-based subscription billing with a Version 1 delivery commitment in 30 days; a Turnkey Development service for fixed-scope, fixed-price custom software builds; and a portfolio of six pre-built industry operating systems — KitchenOS, ClinicOS, RosterOS, LoanOS, WealthOS, and CoopOS — sold under one-time perpetual licenses for F&B, healthcare, rostering, lending, wealth management, and cooperative operations respectively. Target buyers span independent software vendors, large enterprises (with a focus on regulated industries such as healthcare, finance, and government), mid-sized corporations, and funded startups needing rapid MVP delivery.

The company's core technology stack is anchored on Microsoft's .NET and Azure platforms, with AI capabilities delivered primarily through a Build/Certified Partner relationship with Xamun.AI, which the company reports as handling 70-80% of boilerplate code generation across the software development cycle. Supplemental AI offerings include Private AI Development via a partnership with QuickReach, AI Transformation Consulting, and custom AI applications spanning computer vision, natural language processing, predictive analytics, anomaly detection, recommendation engines, optimization, and autonomous agents delivered to clients. Disclosed compliance expertise covers HIPAA, GDPR, PCI-DSS, and jurisdiction-specific regulators (MOH, MAS, HSA, NHS, SEC, AMLA, FCA, MiFID II).

Revenue mechanics combine professional services (xDD subscriptions, Turnkey fixed-price contracts, AI consulting), one-time software licensing (vertical OS products), and custom AI infrastructure projects. The company discloses 100+ successful deliveries, an average client tenure of 7.5 years, and case-study cost savings of 46-90% versus traditional development timelines. BlastAsia is privately held, founder-led (Arup Maity, Founder), with no disclosed institutional funding, parent company, or M&A activity, and reports a headcount in the 51-100 range.
