SaaS Consulting Oxford
Oxford is a global hub for deep technology, where world-class research and brilliant intellectual property form the bedrock of the next generation of software. However, the journey from a powerful technical solution to a scalable, high-growth SaaS business is a distinct and formidable challenge. A technically superior product without a sophisticated commercial strategy risks remaining a niche tool rather than a category leader.
SaaS Consulting in Oxford - From Technical IP to Market-Leading SaaS.
As a specialist SaaS consulting partner for Oxford's unique innovation ecosystem, Gravitonic provides the commercial framework to bridge that gap. We help you transform your deep tech IP into a defensible, investor-ready SaaS company poised for global growth.

We understand the unique DNA of Oxford's tech scene, from the university spin-outs in Begbroke Science Park to the high-growth companies at the Harwell Campus. Your challenges are about simplifying complex products for a commercial audience, building a go-to-market strategy from scratch, and attracting investors who understand deep tech. You need a partner who can translate your technical brilliance into a compelling commercial narrative.

Our SaaS Consulting Services
We provide an end-to-end strategic framework to ensure your deep tech SaaS achieves its maximum commercial potential.
1. Commercialisation & Go-to-Market (GTM) Strategy
We begin by building the bridge from your technology to the market. We help you identify your ideal customer profile (ICP) within a niche market, craft a compelling value proposition, and design a GTM engine to secure your first ten, then one hundred, customers.
2. Product-Market Fit & Value-Based Pricing
For deep tech, demonstrating value is paramount. We conduct rigorous analysis to validate product-market fit and help you architect a pricing strategy based on the unique, high-stakes problems you solve for your customers, moving beyond feature-based pricing.
3. Investor Readiness for Deep Tech
Securing capital for a deep tech SaaS requires a specific approach. We help you build an investor-ready financial model and a data-backed pitch deck that clearly articulates your defensible IP, market opportunity, and path to scale, designed for specialist VCs.
4. Customer Success for Complex Products
Retention in a technical SaaS is about deep integration and expert support. We help you design a customer onboarding and success framework that ensures your users achieve their goals, leading to high retention and expansion revenue.
