How It Works
Three steps. About two weeks.
We talk for 15 minutes
You tell me about the business. I tell you exactly what I'd build, what it costs, and when it goes live. Free, and useful even if we never work together.
I build, you review
You see the real site as it comes together and we adjust until it feels right. No jargon, no homework, one revision round included.
Launch, then Care
Your site goes live on your own domain. You own everything. If you want, the Care plan keeps it updated so you never think about it again.
Client Feedback
What a client said
“This is the first app that actually makes sense for how I work.”
The person you'll actually work with
I'm Ryan, a product designer on Long Island. I taught special education for over three years, which taught me to explain things clearly and build for real people. Today I design and ship software full time, including my own education platform used by teachers across the country, and I design AI systems for mid-size firms as a partner at AuraPath AI. Your website gets that same standard.
Questions
Asked all the time.
What does a website really cost?
Most projects land between $2,000 and $3,500, quoted fixed before we start. The optional Care plan is $100 a month. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices.
How long does it take?
About two weeks from our call to launch for most sites. You see progress the whole way.
Do I own the website?
Yes. The domain, the design, and the code are yours. If we ever part ways, everything goes with you.
What about Wix or Squarespace?
They're fine tools if you have the time and the eye. Most owners have neither, which is how sites end up half-finished. I build it right once, and it stays yours.
Why does accessibility matter for my business?
An accessible site works for every customer, including people using screen readers or older phones. It also ranks better on Google, and it protects you from the ADA lawsuits that hit New York businesses more than any other state.
