What Studio Hachi does

Studio Hachi is a private, founder-owned web development studio established in 2013 and headquartered in Grand Baie, Mauritius (GMT+4). The studio delivers custom web platforms, mobile applications, marketplaces, and two proprietary white-label SaaS products — REMS (Real Estate Management System, ~2023) and Klaas (fitness/wellness studio management, ~2024) — to businesses in Mauritius, Réunion, and the broader Indian Ocean region, with project delivery extending to France, the UK, and Europe. All work is built from scratch on a modern JavaScript stack (Next.js, React, Node.js, PostgreSQL) with no templates, page builders, or third-party plugins, and the studio operates bilingually in French and English.

The studio serves five primary customer segments: real estate agencies operating under Mauritius' complex multi-scheme regulatory environment (IRS, PDS, RES, IHS, Smart City); fitness, yoga, dance, and wellness studios in Réunion and the Indian Ocean; marketplace founders and e-commerce businesses requiring multi-vendor infrastructure; professional services firms requiring bespoke web presences; and businesses needing native or cross-platform mobile applications built with React Native or Swift/Kotlin. REMS consolidates property listings, lead CRM, KYC/AML compliance tracking, buyer eligibility verification, legal fee estimation, and branded agency websites — deployed on client domains within 5 days. Klaas provides online booking, subscription management, Stripe payment processing, member portals, and studio dashboards. Both platforms are positioned as vertical-specific alternatives to generic CRM and SaaS tools that cannot handle Indian Ocean market requirements.

Commercially, Studio Hachi generates revenue through three streams: project-based custom development engagements (typically 5K-50K+ EUR, with statement-of-work scoping and milestone payments); REMS subscriptions (monthly, no long-term commitment, white-label); and Klaas subscriptions (200 EUR setup + 99 EUR/month, 6-month minimum). Distribution is exclusively direct — website contact form, email, and WhatsApp — with no resellers or channel partners. The studio deliberately maintains a small, senior-only team where the same personnel scope and deliver projects with no junior handover, and growth is intentionally constrained by client-count limits. Marketing relies on a content-led Insights blog targeting Indian Ocean business queries, organic SEO, and organic social presence on LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook, with no disclosed paid advertising, external funding, or institutional investors.
