Yes, this is the other half of what we do. We rebuild your site in custom Astro on Cloudflare, with brand, design, and AI-legible markup baked in. You keep your content and your domain; you lose the monthly platform fees and the template constraints. Every migration ships with an AI-editable handoff so you can keep updating the site yourself by talking to Claude or Cursor after we hand it back. Start at $4,000, productized.

Yes, and this is the part most agencies skip. Webflow and WordPress can't be safely edited by AI tools today: Webflow has no API for agents, WordPress hides content in serialized database blobs that page builders own. A custom Astro site is the opposite. Claude Code and Cursor can read the whole codebase, understand the design system, and ship changes through plain English. We set you up to do that safely. The handoff includes a project-tuned CLAUDE.md that tells Claude what your brand rules, components, and no-touch zones are; Claude Code hooks that run lint and tests on every change; preview URLs on every edit so you see the change before it goes live; one-click rollback when something does go wrong; and a 60-minute walkthrough so you know exactly how to prompt for edits. Founders are typing things like 'add a testimonial section under the pricing block' and shipping it themselves, same day, without us in the loop.

Both. Our in-house team handles brand, identity, and visual design, standalone if you only need brand work (from $800), or bundled into any site or app build. We don't subcontract this to anyone.

Yes, and it's the best proof we can offer. Two of the four products we've shipped are our own, built on our own money and live today: Song Cage, a songwriting app on web, iOS, Android, and inside DAWs, and The Curious Thing, which turns a photo of your kid into a printed fantasy jigsaw puzzle. Client work gets the same architecture, the same security passes, and the same production standards we run on our own products. You don't have to take our standards on faith; you can sign up and check.

Three things. First: we ship our own products (Song Cage, The Curious Thing), not just client work, so we know what production actually demands and you can verify us by using them. Second: most shops bolt on Stripe and call it done. We've shipped real AI engineering (Groq, OpenAI, Replicate, BM25 search, multi-model pipelines, real audio/3D/payments work). Third: you own everything outright and can keep editing it yourself with Claude or Cursor after we hand it off, and every build ships clean enough for AI tools to read too. We charge for production and real AI engineering, and you can verify all of it by using our own products.

Yes, fixed. After the free estimate we send a scope and a number. That number doesn't change unless you ask for new scope. If we find the codebase is in worse shape than the estimate suggested, that's on us, not you. We'd rather lose money on one project than turn into the surprise-invoice agency. We've shipped enough of these to scope accurately.

We don't guarantee specific rankings. Nobody controls AI tools from the outside. What we can say: every site we build is structured the right way (schema, llms.txt, AI-legible markup), and Song Cage went from launch to cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude in seven days with no paid media. We'll be honest up front about realistic expectations for your specific market.

Prototype-to-production work runs 3–4 weeks. Larger rebuilds or full custom builds run 6–12 weeks. Marketing sites ship in 2–3 weeks. We'll agree on the timeline before we start, and you review and approve work weekly, so you're never surprised at launch.

Take It to Production starts at $7,500 and runs to ~$15,000 for tougher rebuilds. Full custom SaaS builds are quoted per scope, typically $25K and up. The custom marketing site is $4,000 fixed, productized. The content engine builds from $2,900 and runs from $1,200/month; a blog-only retainer is $400/month flat. Brand design starts at $800. You own everything outright. No SaaS subscriptions, no platform lock-in, no ongoing fees from us.

No. You tell us what the product is meant to do and where you're stuck. We handle the code, the infrastructure, the AI work, the hosting, the security. All of it. Your job is to review what we ship and approve it. That's it.

Generally no. We take cash so we can stay independent and keep our quality bar high. If you have a genuinely exceptional product and want to talk about a small equity component on top of cash, we'll consider it case by case.
