Harrogate businesses tend to care how things look, and they're right to. A fixed price and a fast build don't have to mean a template.
No "contact us for a quote". These are the bands we work in, and the proposal names one number inside them.
| What you want | Price | Typical time |
|---|---|---|
| Custom business site | £1,500 to £4,000 | 1 to 2 weeks |
| Online shop | £2,500 to £6,000 | 2 to 3 weeks |
| Internal tool or customer portal | £3,000 to £12,000 | 2 to 4 weeks |
| Care plan after launch | £75 to £250 a month | ongoing |
| Rescue teardown of an existing build | free, 30 minutes | same week |
Bands, not a quote. The proposal names one number and one date, and the contract carries both.
Design and speed get treated as a trade off, usually because design is the part that gets billed by the day. When the machine does the build work, the human hours go where they show: layout, type, the detail that makes a page feel considered rather than assembled.
Common work here is a custom site with real photography, an online shop, or a booking and enquiry flow that doesn't feel like a form from 2012.
First drafts of screens, markup and logic. The repetitive 80%: forms, lists, plumbing, the fifth variation of the same page.
Scope, architecture, security, data protection, and the decision about what not to build. Every line reviewed and signed off by name.
Every project gets a build log: what was asked for, what it cost, how long it took, what the machine did and what the human did. Published, not summarised.
We don't do brand identity from scratch. If you need a logo, a name and a full visual system, bring a designer or we'll recommend one, then we'll build to it faithfully.
The risk with AI generated code is real and well documented: more bugs, more security holes, when nobody reviews it. That's why review is the product here. A senior engineer reads everything, security and UK GDPR are deliverables rather than extras, and their name goes on it.
We're based in Leeds. We'll come to Harrogate to scope the work and for anything that needs a room, and build remotely, which is part of why the price is what it is.
Because the typing got faster and we passed that on. The thinking, the review and the testing didn't get faster, which is why we're cheaper than an agency but not as cheap as a DIY tool. Anyone charging pre-AI day rates for AI-assisted work is pocketing the difference.
Yes. Code, repository, hosting and accounts, all in your name, no lock in. You can take it to any other developer the day after launch.
