Let's talk
[ SOFTWARE ENGINEERING · INTERNATIONAL ]

Most business software is built to launch.We build it to be run.

Sites, web applications, and the software a business runs on behind them — designed, built and kept running by the people who scoped them. Every price we can publish is published, so you can find your figure before you speak to anybody.

[ 01 ]Based in Greece — remote, worldwideWe work daily — weekends included
[ 02 · WHY THE NUMBERS LOOK LIKE THIS ]

Cheaper because it costs us less to build.Not because there is less of it.

An agency’s price carries account managers, offices and a sales floor, and a great deal of the market is built on tooling that guarantees somebody has to come back and fix it. We carry none of that and we build efficiently, so the number is lower. Senior hands write it, the build is the full one, and the security is the same at every price on the ladder.

What the number does not carry

  • Account managers between you and the work
  • Offices, and the rent under them
  • A sales floor paid on commission
  • Tooling that guarantees somebody comes back to fix it

What it does

  • Senior hands, scoping and writing the same work
  • An efficient build, which is where the saving actually is
  • The same security at every price on the ladder
[ 03 · WHAT YOU ARE BUYING ]

What you are buying,before you buy it.

Senior hands, start to finish

The people who scope the work are the people who write it. Nothing is handed to a team you have never spoken to.

One contact for everything

Domain, DNS, business email, hosting, certificates, the site and the systems behind it. One email address, one invoice.

Built to be kept

Architecture chosen so the thing is still maintainable in its third year, by us or by whoever comes after us.

A reply the same day, any day

We work daily, weekends included, and the reply comes from somebody who can actually answer the question rather than from a queue.

[ 04 · SERVICES ]

Build it. Keep it.Extend it.

What it costs to have it built, what it costs to keep it running, what it costs to put an assistant on top — and, past the ladder, software scoped in writing before there is a figure at all. Every kind of build carries a starting price, so you can find your step without talking to anybody first.

[ 05 · WHY US ]

Built on judgement,not on volume.

Seniority, architecture and one point of contact: three reasons to choose a small studio over an agency, all of them about what happens after launch.

Seniority is the whole product

Most of what makes software expensive later is decided in the first fortnight. Those decisions are made here by the people who will have to live with them.

Architecture that survives year two

Anyone can ship a launch. The question is what it costs to change it once real data and real users are in it — and that is a design decision, not a maintenance one.

One contact, not a supply chain

No handing you to a hosting provider, a domain registrar and a plugin vendor and calling it support. It is all run from one place, by the people who built it.

[ 06 · HOW WE WORK ]

Documented,not improvised.

Four stages, the same on every project. You can read all of them before you commit to anything, and you know what you are getting at the end of each.

  1. [ 01 ]Analysis and planning
  2. [ 02 ]Architecture and design
  3. [ 03 ]Build
  4. [ 04 ]Launch and support
[ 07 · SELECTED WORK ]

The work,described plainly.

Live sites, at their real addresses — open them and judge for yourself. Full builds with a complete backend, where the client administers the site themselves.

Live

mixanourgiki.gr

A full site with a complete backend behind it. The client administers it themselves at admin level, without coming back to us for any of it.

Live

dioskouroi.gr

The same again: a full build with a complete backend and administrative control in the client’s hands. Everything on the site is theirs to change.

[ 08 · CARE AND SUPPORT ]

The part most studioswalk away from.

Care and Active are the two monthly retainers that keep a site alive after launch. Software rots quietly: certificates lapse, dependencies age, a form stops delivering and nobody notices for a month.

  • Updates applied and checked, not applied and hoped for
  • Daily off-server backups, with restores actually tested
  • Monitoring with a human reading the alerts
  • A stated response window, in writing, per tier
[ 09 · QUESTIONS ]

The thingspeople ask first.

How do I know what I am getting before I pay?

By making the risk readable. Every service page carries the written process and the boundaries of the work before you pay anything, and the first stage of any engagement produces a written scope you can take elsewhere if you do not like it. A portfolio tells you what someone did for a different business; the scope tells you what will happen to yours.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on what the site has to do. A single page and a system with accounts, roles and integrations behind it are different amounts of work, so they are different figures — the Websites page publishes a starting price for every step of the ladder, so you can see roughly where you land before you speak to anybody. Past the ladder the scope decides the number, and we say that rather than print an average.

Can you take over a site somebody else built?

We can, and in most cases we would rather rebuild it. Two reasons, and the second is the one nobody mentions: you get a current image instead of an inherited one, and you get a site whose security was designed in rather than bolted on. Most of what we are handed was built without anyone thinking about that at all, and patching it afterwards is slower and less certain than building it right. We will tell you honestly if the existing thing is fine and you do not need us.

Do you handle hosting, domains and email as well?

Yes, and it is the point rather than an add-on. Domain, DNS, business email, hosting and certificates are run by the same people who built the site — one email address and one invoice, instead of three vendors who each blame the other two.

What happens if something breaks at the weekend?

The same thing that happens on a Tuesday. We work daily, we answer at weekends, and there is no queue that opens on Monday. Monitoring raises it, a person looks at it, and you hear about it from us rather than from a customer.

Do you build multilingual sites?

Yes, and from the data model outward rather than translated over the top — locale URLs, hreflang, and a language switch that lands on the same page rather than the home page. Language is not a constraint on who we work with; this site is a working example of the mechanism.

[ 10 · START ]

Tell us whatyou are building.

No sales pressure and no generic proposal. Tell us what you are trying to build and you will get a straight technical read on it and a clear next step.

A paragraph is enough to start. If it is not something we should be doing, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
