Performance is the feature
Sites your visitors can feel.
Fast pages, clean design, content your team can actually edit. We build marketing sites, web apps, and customer portals — then hand over the keys with documentation your non-engineers can follow.

What we build
Three shapes. One standard.
Engineers fluent in modern tooling, pairing through the hard parts — on your stack, in your tools.
Marketing sites
Your public face: homepage, service pages, pricing, blog, contact. Built for conversion and speed, with a CMS your marketing team edits without calling us. Typical build: 3–6 weeks.
Web apps
Dashboards, internal tools, SaaS front-ends. Auth, roles, billing, and integrations done properly from the start — not patched in after launch. We build with the boring stack that survives contact with real users.
Portals
Client portals, member areas, booking flows, LMS front-ends. The unglamorous infrastructure of your business, made pleasant to use — and to maintain.
Stack notes
Boring tech, on purpose.
We choose stacks your next hire can maintain. No exotic frameworks that die in eighteen months, no lock-in disguised as convenience.
Build process
From kickoff to launch.
Discovery
We map your audience, your content, and your actual goals — not the goals in the RFP. You get a sitemap, a content model, and a fixed scope with a fixed price.
Design & prototype
Real pages in the browser, not static mockups in a Figma file you'll never open again. You click through the actual site early, when changes are cheap.
Build
Staging link from day one. Weekly demos, performance budgets enforced on every merge, content entry running in parallel so launch isn't a scramble.
Launch & handover
DNS, analytics, search console, backups — the launch checklist nobody sees. Then training: your team edits, publishes, and deploys without us.
Performance commitments
Numbers in writing.
"Fast" is a feeling until it's measured. We put these targets in the contract and verify them at launch on real devices.
- Largest Contentful Paint under 2.5s — on a mid-range phone, throttled 4G.
- Cumulative Layout Shift under 0.1 — no jumping buttons, no reflowing text.
- Interaction to Next Paint under 200ms — every click and tap feels instant.
- WCAG 2.2 AA — keyboard navigation, contrast, focus states, screen-reader labels. Accessibility is a launch gate, not a backlog item.
- SEO foundations — semantic HTML, meta, sitemaps, structured data, and clean URLs from day one.
Lighthouse performance target on every launch — not an average
not quarters — marketing sites ship in weeks, scoped fixed
of code and CMS owned by you from day one — your repos, your accounts
deploys without a rehearsed rollback — launch-day surprises aren't a plan
What we build to — written into the engagement before we start, not claimed after.
FAQ
Asked before we start.
Usually, yes — and it's often the smarter spend. We audit what's there first: if the foundation is sound, we rebuild the front-end on top of it. If it's holding you back, we'll show you exactly why before suggesting a rebuild.
That's a launch requirement, not a favor. Every site ships with a CMS your non-technical team can use, plus a recorded training session. If editing requires calling us, we consider the build incomplete.
We do page-level copy refinement and full visual design as part of every build. For complete brand identity work (logo, guidelines), we partner with designers we trust — or work with yours.
30 days of fixes on us, then your choice: we hand over everything and you run it, or we stay on a care plan for updates, monitoring, and small improvements. No retainer traps.
A freelancer gives you one person's judgment. You get a full team: separate eyes on design, engineering, and QA, plus a process with staging, reviews, and performance gates. And we're still here in six months when you need changes.
