02 / HOW WE BUILD
Engineering over decoration
Same production stack every project. Custom Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind. No templates, no tricks hiding thin architecture.
You own the editing
Every build ships with our inline CMS or a configured Cursor workflow. Self-service content updates forever, no developer required.
Proactive, not reactive
12 weeks of weekly performance reports after launch. We implement the top fixes ourselves, not just suggest them.
Small team, senior only
No juniors, no account managers, no handoffs. You talk to the people writing the code.
