Custom-built on Astro and a headless CMS. Engineered for speed, structured for AI, owned by you — not by a page builder.
Trusted by teams at
Most marketing sites are built on rendering models that were designed for an internet that doesn't exist anymore. Here's what we keep seeing when we audit them:
Your team controls content; we handle the engineering.
Pre-rendered HTML served from a global CDN. First byte under 100 ms anywhere your customers live. Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, or Vercel — we choose with you.
Static-site generation by default. Islands of React, Vue, or Svelte only on interactive components. Optimized images at build time (AVIF + WebP, explicit dimensions, lazy below the fold).
Structured content your team edits from any browser. Real-time collaboration, image pipeline, GROQ querying, generous free tier. We propose Sanity by default — we'll evaluate Storyblok, Payload, Contentful, Hygraph, or Decap if your situation calls for it.
Your content lives in your CMS, your repo, your accounts. HubSpot, Salesforce, Marketo, Segment, GA4 — wired in as first-class citizens, not third-party scripts that tank performance.
AI Overviews, Perplexity, ChatGPT Search, and Gemini don't read your site the way Google did in 2015. We build for the way they read it in 2026.
Real <article>, <section>, <nav>, <main>, <header>, <footer>. LLMs and crawlers parse structure before content.
One H1 per page. H2s framed as questions where it reads naturally — directly extractable into AI Overview answers.
Organization, WebSite, BreadcrumbList, Service, FAQPage, Article, LocalBusiness — chosen per page type, validated against Google's Rich Results test.
Explicit manifests telling Claude, GPT, Gemini, and Perplexity what your site is about and which content is canonical.
GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended — allowed by default, with per-path control when you need it.
Short lead paragraphs that summarize. Definition boxes. FAQ blocks. Tables where comparisons live. Exactly what LLMs reach for first.
Hand-tuned share images, not auto-generated. Strong social referrals lift AI training signal too.
One canonical per page, no conflicting signals. Paginated archives use rel=next/prev where appropriate.
If your site doesn't hit these numbers at launch, it's not done. Measured on a cold cache, slow 4G simulation, mobile-first.
Measured from your actual session on this page, right now. Values update live as the browser reports them. Compare to the contract we sign with every build.
Values are from your current page session in this browser, on whatever network you're on. Numbers are typically better on a warm cache and worse on first paint — that's why we commit to first-paint numbers (cold cache, slow 4G simulation) in our contracts.
Concrete scope, not a checklist of vague deliverables.
Repeatable, documented, measurable. Click any phase to see deliverables, who's involved, and what changes after it launches.
Diagnostic before any decision. We start by understanding what you actually have.
We don't recommend a single architectural choice until we've audited your current site, your brand, your content, and your conversion goals. Half the engagements end up with a different scope than the kickoff implied.
Our owner (yours through delivery), brand lead, and one engineer for the technical audit.
It hits every commitment on this page. View source, run it through Lighthouse yourself — there's nothing hidden.
The site you're reading. Astro, headless content, Lighthouse 95+ on cold cache, sub-second LCP. View the source — there are no surprises.
View page sourceThey're fine for a hobby site. For a business that depends on search visibility and conversion, they hit walls fast: no real schema control, no AI-crawler manifest, locked-in templates, mediocre Core Web Vitals, and your content lives in their database — not yours. The price difference vanishes the first time you need to do something they don't support.
Yes — and this is where most agencies quietly destroy SEO equity. We build a per-URL redirect map from your legacy site, test it pre-launch and post-launch with an automated script, and resubmit your sitemap to Google and Bing on cutover day. Your ranking pages keep ranking.
You do. Repository hosted in your GitHub or GitLab organization from day one. We hand over the keys at launch. No platform lock-in, no proprietary "agency CMS" you can't move off of.
A speed plugin is a band-aid on a rendering model that was never going to be fast. Astro ships HTML first, JavaScript only where it earns its place, and assets through an optimized build pipeline. The difference is structural, not incremental — typically 5–10× faster LCP, with a fraction of the page weight.
By default, Sanity Studio — a real-time, collaborative content editor your team can run from a browser. It's the strongest fit for structured content, image handling, and Astro integration we've found. We'll evaluate alternatives (Storyblok, Payload, Contentful, Hygraph, Decap) if your situation calls for something else, and document the decision.
Three layers. (1) Per-URL redirect map drafted during IA, reviewed before launch, tested in CI that fails on any non-301 or 404. (2) Schema preservation — every page type that emitted JSON-LD on your old site gets equivalent or better schema on the new one. (3) Internal-linking strategy that connects every service page to relevant case studies and blog posts so PageRank flows where it should.
This is most of why people come to us right now. We publish llms.txt and llms-full.txt manifests, allow legitimate AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended) by default, structure content for extractive answers, and use schema that LLMs treat as canonical. You won't just rank — you'll be the source they cite.
A tight-scope marketing site can launch in as little as 30 days; a full marketing-site build typically runs 6–11 weeks end to end. An enterprise build with content migration, multi-language, or e-commerce can be 4–6 months. We give you a real timeline after the discovery phase — never before.
It depends on the scope and goals of your engagement — get in touch and we'll scope it together.
Thirty minutes on a call. We'll scope the project, give you a real number, and you'll know what we'd do differently than your current stack — whether you hire us or not.
