FULL STACK

Everything behind the page, too.

A website is the front door. Most businesses also need the rooms behind it: customer accounts, bookings, payments, reports and an admin team that can run it all. We design and build the full stack, then keep it running. Every web application we ship is fast, modern, scalable and fully responsive.

  • Accounts, roles and permissions
  • Databases and secure APIs
  • Admin dashboards and reporting
  • Payments, invoices and subscriptions
  • Email, SMS and notification workflows
  • Integrations with the tools you already use

  • Laravel
  • PHP
  • React
  • JavaScript
  • REST APIs
  • SQL databases
  • Liquid
  • Shopify APIs
  • Hydrogen
  • Cloud deployment

50% to start, the rest before launch. Larger builds are split into milestones.
Ongoing care from $99/mo: updates, backups, small tweaks. Quoted with every build.

No monthly fee to keep your site live. Once your site is built, it stays online, unlike Shopify or Wix, where stopping the subscription takes your site down.

QUESTIONS

Good questions.

How much does a project cost?

Packages start at $1,500 for a launch site, $3,000 for a fully animated front end and $7,500 for a full-stack application. Every project is quoted exactly after a short call.

How long does it take?

Typically 2 to 3 weeks for a launch site, 4 to 6 weeks for a custom front end and 8 to 16 weeks for a web application. We confirm the timeline when we scope.

Do you build web applications and dashboards, or only websites?

Both. We build full-stack applications with accounts, databases, APIs, admin dashboards, payments and integrations.

Do you work with Shopify?

Yes. We build and customize Shopify stores: custom themes, new sections and features, apps and integrations, speed and SEO work, and migrations from other platforms.

Can you customize the theme I already have?

Usually, yes. We review the theme first. If it can do what you need, we customize it. If not, we tell you and quote a custom build.

Do I pay Shopify separately?

Yes. Your Shopify plan, any paid theme and any paid apps are billed by Shopify and the app makers. Our quote covers our design and development work.

Who owns the code and the content?

You do. Once the project is paid for, the code, design files and content are yours.

What happens after launch?

Your site stays live with no monthly fee. If you'd like us to keep looking after it (monitoring, security updates, backups and small changes), that's the monthly care plan. Or we hand everything over with documentation.

Do I pay a monthly fee to keep my website online?

No. Once your site is built, it stays live with no monthly fee to us, unlike website builders such as Shopify or Wix, where your site goes down if you stop paying the subscription. For a website, the only recurring cost is your domain name, which renews yearly with the registrar (typically around $10 to $15 a year). Web applications with a database or backend also have hosting costs, paid directly to the provider, never to us. The care plan (from $99/mo) is separate and optional: it covers updates, backups and small tweaks. It is not what keeps your site online.

Can you work with our existing website or system?

Yes. We redesign, extend and integrate with existing sites, databases and tools.

How does payment work?

Launch and Studio projects are 50% to start and the rest before launch. Larger builds are split into milestones, typically 40% to start, 30% when the design or staging is approved, and 30% before launch. Care plans are billed monthly in advance. The exact schedule is set out in your quote.

Will it work on phones and tablets?

Yes. Everything we build is mobile-first and tested across screen sizes.
