Consulting & studio work

More than a website when you need it.

Sometimes the job is not a website. It is picking the right tech stack, setting up the infrastructure properly, automating the busywork, sometimes with AI, or building the app behind the business. That is the studio too, one engineer with 13+ years of experience, scoped and fixed-quoted after a call.

The work behind the website.

  1. 01

    Tech stack & architecture

    from £900

    Choosing and standing up the right foundation: hosting, servers, databases, domains, email, and a clean deployment pipeline. The technical groundwork done properly, so it does not bite you later.

    • Hosting + Servers
    • Databases
    • Email + DNS
    • Deployment / CI
  2. 02

    Automation & scripts

    from £750

    The boring work, taken care of. Custom scripts, scheduled jobs, data pipelines, and integrations between the tools you already use. If you are doing it twice, it can probably be done once.

    • API Integrations
    • Scraping
    • Data Pipelines
    • Cron + Bots
  3. 03

    AI & intelligent automation

    scoped after a call

    Practical AI where it actually pays for itself: assistants trained on your own documents, drafting and triage for enquiries, data pulled out of paperwork, and LLM features built into your tools. No hype, measured against the hours it saves.

    • LLM Integrations
    • Chat Assistants
    • Document Extraction
    • AI Workflows
  4. 04

    Web apps, dashboards & tools

    from £4,000

    Internal tools, customer and patient portals, admin dashboards, MVPs. Properly engineered front to back, authentication, data, deployment, with a UI that does not embarrass you in a demo.

    • Portals
    • Dashboards
    • APIs
  5. 05

    Support & advisory

    £95/hour

    Hosting, DNS, email, certificates, the thing that broke at 9pm on a Sunday. A trusted technical line when you would rather not guess. Hourly, one-off, or on a £250/month retainer.

    • Migrations
    • Incident Help
    • Advisory Calls
    • Retainers
Whatever the stack

If it runs on a server, I can build with it.

Thirteen-plus years across the stack, from bare Linux boxes to payment APIs. These are the tools I reach for most, and if your project needs something else, I will say so before you spend a pound.

  • Python
  • Node.js
  • TypeScript
  • PHP
  • SQL & SQLite
  • Linux & Apache
  • Stripe & payments
  • Google Cloud & APIs
  • LLM & AI APIs
  • CI & deployment
Just need a website?

Most businesses want a site, not a system, and that is a fixed price from £199.

If you are here for a straightforward website rather than a custom build, the build tiers are the place to start. See website prices or find your trade.
