Web Development

Web Development That Works as Hard as You Do

Custom web development services for businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets and duct-taped tools. We build systems that take work off your plate, sell around the clock, and never call in sick.

Mon–Fri, 9am–6pm MT

Most growing businesses run on a patchwork of spreadsheets, email threads, and tools that refuse to share data. It works, until it doesn't. Our custom web development services replace that patchwork with a single system: orders flow in, tasks get assigned, reports build themselves, and your team stops copying data between screens.

We handle the full build: scoping, design, development, launch, and support. Senior engineers write the code, and you get a single point of contact who speaks plain English, not jargon. Whether you need a customer portal, an internal dashboard, or a storefront that converts, the goal is the same. Software that pays for itself by doing real work every day.

Custom Web Applications

Purpose-built systems that replace spreadsheets, paper forms, and manual workflows. Customer portals, booking systems, internal dashboards, quoting tools. If your team does it by hand today, we can probably build software that does it faster and without errors.

E-Commerce & Marketplace Platforms

Online stores and multi-vendor marketplaces built to convert, not just look good. We handle product catalogs, payments, shipping logic, and inventory sync, on platforms like Shopify or fully custom builds when off-the-shelf tools hold you back.

API Development & Integrations

Your CRM, accounting software, and inventory system should share data automatically. We build the connections that make that happen, so orders, invoices, and customer records stay in sync without anyone retyping a thing.

CMS & Headless Solutions

Content management your team can actually use. We build on WordPress, or pair a headless CMS like Sanity or Strapi with a fast modern front end, so marketing updates pages in minutes and never waits on a developer.

How we work

How we run web development projects

Free consultation, written scope, weekly demos, and support after launch — every time.

  1. Scope & architecture

    We map your workflows, data, and integrations, then fix scope and price in writing before any code.

  2. Design & prototype

    Clickable screens of your actual system — cheap to change now, expensive to change later.

  3. Build in milestones

    Weekly demo builds you can click. Progress lives in your browser, not in a status report.

  4. Launch & maintain

    Zero-downtime deploys, monitoring, and a plan that keeps it fast and secure.

Outcomes

What you can expect

  • Automate the manual work that eats hours of your team's week
  • One source of truth instead of scattered spreadsheets and conflicting versions
  • Software shaped to your process, not the other way around

Web Development questions, answered

Honest answers — including the ones about price.

How much does a custom web application cost?

As a typical range, most small-business web applications land between $15,000 and $40,000, while customer portals and larger platforms with complex requirements run $40,000 to $100,000 or more. Scope drives price, so user roles, third-party connections, and custom workflows matter far more than page count. We are a US-registered company with a senior global engineering team, which is how we keep senior-level work within small-business budgets, and we quote fixed prices after scoping.

How long does it take to build a web application?

A focused first version typically takes 8 to 16 weeks from kickoff to launch. Simpler tools can ship in 4 to 6 weeks, while larger platforms may take 6 months or more. We build in phases, so you get working software early and can start using it while we add features. The biggest timeline factor is scope, followed by how quickly decisions get made.

Can you rebuild or modernize an existing website or system?

Yes. We rebuild aging systems, migrate off unsupported platforms, and speed up sites that have grown slow or hard to maintain. We start with a technical review of your current setup, then recommend targeted fixes or a full rebuild, whichever gives you more value for the budget. Your data and search rankings come along either way.

Do you provide hosting and ongoing maintenance?

Yes. We set up hosting on providers like AWS or Vercel, configure backups and monitoring, and offer monthly maintenance plans that cover updates, security patches, and small improvements. You own everything: the code, the accounts, and the infrastructure. If you ever want to move on or bring things in-house, nothing is locked to us.

What technologies do you use for web development?

We match the stack to the project rather than forcing a favorite. Most of our custom web development services are delivered with React, Next.js, and Node.js or Python on the back end, with PostgreSQL for data and AWS for hosting. For e-commerce we work with Shopify and custom builds; for content sites, WordPress or a headless CMS. Every choice favors tools that are proven, well-documented, and easy to hire for later.
