DESIGNER WEBSITES, FULLY WIRED

AI made everyone a designer. Nobody became a webmaster.

The pretty part of websites got easy. The working part didn't — the forms that actually reach you, the booking that actually books, the updates that don't break anything at 11pm. We design, build, connect, and maintain a website for your bakery — live in 48 hours, run from a dashboard you'll genuinely understand.

01The honest part

The pretty part got easy. The working part didn't.

Anyone with an AI tool can generate a homepage that looks expensive. Then comes the rest: domains, DNS, hosting, forms, booking, payments, analytics, backups, updates — the invisible 80% that decides whether your website is an asset or a liability. That's the part we never hand back to you. And most of our clients aren't getting their first website — they're replacing the one that's been quietly embarrassing them for years.

Connected

Your contact form lands in your inbox, not the void. Booking syncs to your calendar. Payments hit your account. Analytics tell you where customers came from. Every wire, soldered before launch.

Maintained

Software updates, nightly backups, security monitoring, uptime checks. When something on the internet breaks — and it does — it's our 11pm problem, never yours.

Manageable

One dashboard, built for humans. Change your hours, swap a photo, post an offer, read your leads — without a tutorial, a password manager, or a phone call. (Though you can always just call.)

03The 48 hours

The clock starts when you hit send.

Forty-eight hours isn't a stunt — it's what happens when designers, engineers and AI stop handing work back and forth and just build. Here's the whole thing, hour by hour.

HOUR 0

You brief us

Fifteen minutes, one form. Your business, your style pick, your photos. The clock starts.

HOUR 2

Kickoff

We confirm scope on a short call, register or connect your domain, and set up hosting.

HOUR 12

Design pass

Your chosen frame is rebuilt around your brand. Copy written, photos placed, pages composed.

HOUR 24

You review

A private link lands in your inbox. Mark it up, voice-note us, or just say "ship it."

HOUR 36

The wiring

Forms, booking, payments, analytics, your dashboard — connected and tested with real submissions.

HOUR 48

Live

DNS flips, SSL locks, and your site is on the internet. We walk you through the dashboard in 30 minutes.

04The dashboard

Your website, with handles.

01Edit anything in plain sight

Click the text, change the text. Swap a photo by dropping in a new one. No page builders, no "modules," no fear.

02See every lead in one place

Form fills, booking requests, calls from the site — one inbox with timestamps, sources, and a big obvious "reply" button.

03Know what's working

Visitors, top pages, where they came from — translated into sentences, not charts that need a statistics degree.

04And a human on call

Anything bigger than a small edit? There's a button for that too. It reaches us, same day.

Good morning, Dana

  • Every word of copy written for you

The Care Plan
$150
per month. first month included.
  • Hosting, SSL & your domain managed
  • Updates, nightly backups, security watch
  • Two hours of edits every month — 24-hour turnaround
  • Monthly report in plain English
  • Same-day human support
  • Pause or cancel anytime — the site stays yours

No surprise invoices. Two hours of edits are included every month — more than most clients ever use. Anything bigger is quoted up front at a flat $75/hour and approved by you before we start. And if you ever leave, we hand over the keys cleanly — you own your domain, your content, and your site outright from day one.

For reference: a typical agency quote for this same scope is $5,000+ and six weeks — and the dashboard they leave you with was built for their developers, not for you.
06Fair questions

Asked, answered.

Do I actually own the website?

Yes — domain, design, content, all of it, from day one. The Care Plan is for keeping it hosted, healthy and edited; it's not a hostage arrangement. Cancel and we hand you everything with a clean transfer, plus a written guide for whoever takes over.

How is 48 hours possible? Is it AI doing everything?

AI does what it's genuinely great at — first-pass layouts, copy drafts, image prep — and our designers and engineers do what it isn't: taste, judgment, and the wiring. The 48 hours is real, but it starts when your brief is complete. If you take three days to find your logo, the clock politely waits.

What if I don't have photos, copy, or even a logo?

Most clients don't. We write all the copy from your brief and a short call. For images we art-direct premium stock (you'd be surprised), and a simple text logo is included. If you have great photos, even better — there's a place in the brief to share them.

How do the Care Plan's included edit hours work?

Every month includes two hours of our time — plenty for text changes, photo swaps, new testimonials, updated hours and prices, an announcement banner. Most clients never come close to the limit. Anything bigger — new pages, new features, a redesign — is billed at a flat $75/hour, quoted up front and approved by you before we start. You'll never receive an invoice you didn't see coming.

Can you do online ordering or a full shop?

Yes. Catalogs up to about 25 products fit inside the standard 48-hour build. Bigger stores, memberships, or custom features get scoped honestly on the kickoff call — usually as a second 48-hour sprint rather than a vague "phase two."

I already have a website. Can you take it over?

Happily. We rebuild it on our stack (it almost always gets faster and prettier in the process), redirect every old link so Google doesn't lose you, and put it under the Care Plan. Your old host gets a polite goodbye.

Brief us tonight. Launch by the weekend.

The brief takes about fifteen minutes. The site takes us forty-eight hours. The dashboard takes you no time at all — that's the point.
