About

I'm Matt Anderson.

Stellify is a Laravel development studio that lets developers and AI build full-stack applications as structured data, not files — for Laravel developers, agencies, and business owners who want tailored software they own. I founded Stellify Software Ltd., the UK company behind it.

The product

What Stellify does

The Laravel studio

A browser-based studio where full-stack Laravel and Vue apps are built as structured data — files, methods, and statements stored as connected records. The outcome: AI edits land at the statement level, precisely, instead of regenerating whole files.

A library of reusable modules

Production-tested modules — billing, bookings, auth, messaging and more — that can be searched and referenced straight into a new project. You ship features by reusing proven code rather than rebuilding it.

AI-native editing via MCP

Connect your own AI editor to Stellify over MCP and let it find, wire, and edit existing code. The structure is what makes the AI accurate — it works with addressable records, not guesswork over text.

Export & GitHub sync

Every project exports as a standard Laravel codebase and syncs to GitHub on demand. Your repository stays the source of truth, and you can leave with your code at any time.

Bespoke builds for businesses

We take on a small number of contract projects — tailored systems for gyms, holiday parks, hospitality, hire & rental, clinics and professional services, built fast in our own studio and owned outright by the client. See Stellify for business.

Hosting & support

You own the code. It's standard, modular Laravel that follows Laravel conventions, synced to your own GitHub repository — run it on your own Laravel Cloud account, or with your own developer or a development partner. When our modules improve, the update is synced to your repository, ready to deploy — keeping a system current is included in Studio plans.

The difference

What makes Stellify different

Code as structured data, not flat files

AI editors like Cursor, Windsurf and GitHub Copilot work on flat files, regenerating whole blocks of text. Stellify stores every file, method and statement as an addressable record, so edits are surgical and nothing around them gets rewritten. See the full comparison.

Reuse before rebuild

New projects reference existing, production-tested modules instead of generating everything from scratch. In a scoped benchmark, building on a referenced module used roughly 14× fewer AI tokens than generating the same feature fresh — we published the numbers.

Reversible adoption — export standard Laravel

No-code builders lock your app inside a proprietary runtime you can never leave. Stellify exports plain Laravel on every plan, including the free tier, so trying it costs you nothing in lock-in.

Full-stack in one studio

Server-side Laravel and client-side Vue live in the same structured system, so one AI edit can change a controller, a route and the UI coherently — no juggling separate front-end and back-end tools.

Start free, month-to-month

A free Hobby tier, paid plans from $20/month, and no mandated annual contract — where enterprise platforms typically require 12-month commitments. Cancel anytime and take your exported code with you.

Who it's for

Who uses Stellify

  • Laravel developers who want AI edits that land precisely, with a library of proven modules to build on.
  • Freelancers and consultants running several client projects at once.
  • Small agencies and product teams shipping bespoke web applications.
  • Business owners — gyms, holiday parks, hospitality venues, hire & rental firms, clinics and professional-services practices — commissioning tailored systems they own instead of renting generic software.
  • SaaS founders starting from a production-ready starter kit rather than a blank repo.
Where it started

Why I built Stellify.

I kept hitting the same wall: rebuilding the same auth, billing and dashboards from scratch on every project — rewriting code that already existed, locked inside a file in some other repo. Files make code disposable: tied to one project, awkward to reuse, painful to edit precisely. So I started building the thing I wanted to exist — a system where code lives as structured, connected records in a database, not flat files. Once it's structured, it stops being locked to a single project: it becomes reusable, composable, and precisely editable. Everything Stellify does grows out of that one decision.

The team

The team behind Stellify

Stellify Software Ltd. was founded in 2018 by Matt Anderson, a UK software developer who spent years building web applications for companies large and small before turning the reuse problem into a product. Matt still writes the code, answers the emails, and works directly with every client.

It's a deliberately small operation: one founder, an AI-assisted studio, and a growing library of production-tested modules doing the work a bigger team would.

The north star

Reusable, production-ready code flowing into real projects.

It's the goal everything Stellify does ladders up to — production-ready code you can edit and sync straight into real projects, instead of rebuilding the same things from scratch every time.

The process

How Stellify works

Building it yourself: sign up free — no credit card — and build in the browser studio, or connect your own AI editor over MCP. Search the library, reference the modules you need, and export or sync to GitHub whenever you like. The full walkthrough is here.

Commissioning a build: tell us what you need in a conversation on our site and we turn it into a clear, itemised proposal — you confirm the requirements and preview the finished system before it goes live, and building is covered by your plan. You deal directly with Matt by email from first brief to acceptance — no account managers — and because builds start from proven modules, tailored systems ship in days, not months.

After acceptance: your system syncs to your own GitHub repository as standard, modular Laravel — run it on your own Laravel Cloud account, or with your own developer or a development partner — and when our modules improve, the update is synced to your repository, ready to deploy — keeping a system current is included in Studio plans. Reach us anytime via the contact page.

Where we're going

Friction-free, without compromise.

Our objective is to make creating complex, bespoke applications as friction-free as possible — without sacrificing feel, UI or UX.

We're especially excited about NativePHP and the opportunity it opens up to extend Stellify beyond the web into the mobile and desktop app space — full-stack apps built as structured data, shipped natively.

We always strive to ship the highest quality software we possibly can.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is Stellify?

Stellify is a Laravel studio that lets developers and AI build full-stack web applications as structured data instead of flat files. Code is stored as connected records — files, methods, statements — so it can be searched, reused, and edited precisely.

Is Stellify a no-code platform?

No. Stellify produces real Laravel and Vue code — it just stores it as structured data while you work on it. You can export everything as a standard Laravel project at any time.

How is Stellify different from Cursor or Windsurf?

Cursor and Windsurf are AI editors that work on flat files, regenerating whole blocks of text. Stellify's structured data lets AI edits land at the statement level, and lets proven modules be referenced into new projects instead of rebuilt. Full comparison here.

How much does Stellify cost?

There's a free Hobby tier, and paid plans start at $20/month with no mandated annual contract. Commissioned builds are quoted per project — see pricing.

Can I take my code elsewhere?

Yes. Stellify exports standard Laravel — plain files you can host anywhere — on every plan, including the free tier. Your repository stays the source of truth.

Does Stellify build software for businesses?

Yes. We take on a small number of contract projects — tailored systems built in our own studio that you own outright, with pay-per-job maintenance after launch. See Stellify for business.
