Who this is for

This service is for Salesforce ISVs and internal product teams building an application meant to run inside Salesforce, whether it is headed for an AppExchange listing or built for distribution across your own orgs. It also fits a team that already has a security review coming up and wants a second set of eyes on the package before submitting it.

Deliverables

What we do

2GP packaging and release workflows

We package your application using second-generation packaging, including namespace decisions, versioning, and the upgrade paths that keep customer orgs stable release after release. We also plan how configuration and packaged metadata get split, so an upgrade does not quietly overwrite a customer's own settings.

Security review readiness support

We prepare your application for Salesforce's security review, working through the issues reviewers commonly flag: sharing and field-level security, Apex security patterns, and the documentation the review process expects.

Frontend and backend product engineering

We build the application itself, from Lightning Web Components on the frontend to Apex services and data model design on the backend, aiming for screens and flows that behave the way a Salesforce user already expects.

Roadmap-aligned feature delivery

We deliver features in the order your roadmap actually needs them, not in whatever order is easiest to build first.

Engagement

How an engagement runs

01

Discovery

We review your current package, data model, and where you stand in the AppExchange or internal rollout process, including any prior security review feedback.

02

Plan

We lay out a release plan across packaging, security review preparation, and feature work, broken into stages you can track and approve as we go.

03

Build

We build and package in a scratch org or sandbox, with governor limits and upgrade safety considered from the start, not bolted on later.

04

Launch

We support the release itself, whether that is a listing update, a version push to existing customers, or a first release.

05

Support

After launch, we stay available for the fixes and small enhancements that come up once real orgs are running your package.

What you see each week

A weekly update on packaging progress, security review status, and feature work, plus early notice of anything that needs a decision or approval from you before we move ahead.

When this is not the right fit

This is not the right fit for a Salesforce configuration project with no packaged application involved, or for a team that already has its own dedicated packaging and release engineering in place and only wants occasional advice. Our Salesforce Consulting service covers configuration-only work instead.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What is 2GP packaging and why does it matter?

Second-generation packaging is Salesforce's current model for building installable applications with proper versioning and dependency management. It matters because it is what makes safe upgrades possible once customers already have your package installed.

Can you get an existing application through Salesforce security review?

We review your Apex, sharing model, and configuration against what the review typically checks, and fix what needs fixing before you submit. The decision itself rests with Salesforce.

Do you build the application, or only handle packaging?

Both. We build the Lightning Web Components and Apex behind your application, as well as handling packaging and release.

Is this only for AppExchange-listed products?

No. The same packaging and engineering discipline applies to applications distributed internally across your own orgs, not only public AppExchange listings.

Built by the same team

The same team builds our own AppExchange products

This service is not theoretical for us. The team behind it also builds Time-Off PRO and NativeDocs, two Salesforce-native products currently in early access and not yet listed on Salesforce AppExchange. Working through packaging, configuration, and platform limits on our own products is part of how we stay current on what AppExchange delivery actually involves day to day, from namespace decisions and custom metadata to governor limits and the security review process itself.

If you want a closer look at how we think about packaging and readiness, our guide on building an AppExchange-ready application walks through namespace and data model decisions, configuration through custom metadata, permission sets and licensing, governor limits, upgrade safety, and what the security review looks for.
