Austin, Texas

Web design company
for Austin businesses.

We are not on East 6th. We are a ten-person web and software team in northern Italy, working in English for US companies, seven hours ahead of Austin. Here is what we build for Austin businesses — from MVPs to booking apps — and when a local agency is the better choice.

What we build

Websites, apps and software
for Austin companies

Six kinds of project cover almost everything that reaches us from the US. The first job on any call is working out which one you actually need — fairly often it is smaller than the one you came in asking for.

01

Company website

A handful of pages done properly: who you are, what you do, who for, how to reach you. Fast on a phone, accessible, and written around the words your customers actually type into Google. From €350 one-off, or €24.80 a month with hosting and changes included.

02

E-commerce

Product pages, checkout, shipping rules, sales tax settings, order handling. Shopify when it fits, custom when it does not, and connected to your inventory or accounting so nothing gets keyed in twice.

03

Mobile apps

iOS and Android apps, or an installable web app when the App Store adds nothing. Booking, loyalty, field service, ordering, internal tools for crews who are never at a desk.

04

Custom business software

Inventory, jobs, scheduling, quoting, service reports. Built around how your company works instead of how a SaaS vendor decided everyone should work. Custom systems start from €1,500.

05

CRM and client portals

Leads, deals, orders and documents in one place, plus a portal where clients check status themselves instead of emailing you. Usually saves more hours than the public website.

06

Integrations and automation

Two systems that do not talk, and a person retyping data between them: QuickBooks, Shopify, HubSpot, Salesforce, spreadsheets. Automating that handover has the fastest payback of anything on this list.

Austin industries

What we build
for Austin

Every city has its own mix of businesses, and its own software problems. These are the ones we see most from Austin.

01

Startups and MVPs

A first version you can show users and investors in weeks, at a fixed price, built on mainstream technology your future team can take over.

02

SaaS and tech companies

Marketing sites your growth team can edit, internal admin tools and integrations — the work that keeps engineers off the product.

03

Hospitality, music and events

Ticketing and booking flows, venue sites, event calendars, loyalty apps for a city that runs on live events.

04

Real estate and home builders

Community and listing sites, buyer portals, and construction tracking for builders working the fast-growing suburbs.

05

Semiconductor and manufacturing suppliers

Supplier portals, RFQ tools, document control and technical sites for companies serving the region's growing chip industry.

06

Home and local services

Fast sites and scheduling tools for contractors working Round Rock, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Pflugerville and San Marcos.

The commercial reality

Why a team in Italy
makes sense for Austin

Austin grew faster than its agency market, and local rates followed tech salaries up. For an MVP, a marketing site or an internal tool, that premium rarely buys anything you need.

We work at a fixed price, in stages, with code in your repository from day one — at a fraction of a local agency's quote, because our overhead is a fraction of theirs. You talk to the people building the project.

Texas has its own privacy law, the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act. We build forms, consent and data handling to match it; your counsel confirms the policy side.

Honestly

Time zones, contracts,
and when we are the wrong choice

Italy is seven hours ahead of Austin. Between 8 and 11am Central we are both working, and that window is where calls and decisions go. Most of our build time happens before your day starts, so a question you send in the evening usually has an answer, and often a working fix, by the time you open your laptop.

The paperwork is simple: contracts in English, a fixed price in writing, invoices without Italian VAT, and intellectual property assigned to your company. Domain, hosting, Google accounts and source code are registered in your name from launch.

When we are the wrong choice. If you need someone in your office every week, a supplier on chat through your whole afternoon, or a team of fifteen running in parallel on a seven-figure program, a Austin firm is the right answer — and we will tell you that on the first call rather than three months in.

How we work

Fixed price,
no surprises.

  1. Free 30-minute callWhat you sell, who to, and what the site or software has to do. No sales deck. Sometimes the honest conclusion is that you need less than you thought.
  2. Fixed-price quoteOne figure in writing, covering everything needed to go live. It does not move mid-project: anything you add later is quoted separately, and only if you ask.
  3. Built in stagesYou see something usable within the first weeks, then every week after. Corrections happen during the build, not in a big review at the end.
  4. Launch and afterGo-live, checks, training for your team. Maintenance is optional — you are not locked in, and the domain, accounts and source code are in your company's name.
FAQ

The questions from Austin.

How fast can you ship an MVP?

A focused MVP typically takes six to ten weeks, depending on scope. We cut it to the smallest version that tests the idea, fix the price, and ship working builds every week.

Will our future engineers be able to take over the code?

Yes. Mainstream stacks, code in your GitHub from the first commit, and documentation written for the next developer.

Do you work with Austin companies from Italy?

Yes, in English. Italy is seven hours ahead of Austin, so calls go in your morning, roughly 8 to 11am Central.

How much does a website cost?

A company website costs €350 one-off, plus €150 if you want the initial optimization for Google and Bing, or €24.80 a month with hosting, domain, maintenance and content changes included on a 24-month minimum term. Web apps start at €50 a month or €750 one-off; custom business software starts at €1,500. Larger projects get a fixed quote after a free analysis.

How do the time zones work with Austin?

Italy is 7 hours ahead of Central time. We schedule calls in your morning, which is our afternoon, and do most of the build while you are offline. In practice you get answers overnight rather than waiting for them during your day.

Will we own the website and the code?

Yes. On the one-off option the domain, hosting, content and source code are registered in your company's name from go-live, and the code lives in your repository. There is no license tied to us and no lock-in.

Got a project in Austin?

Thirty minutes on a video call, free and with no sales deck: we tell you what you actually need, what it costs and how long it takes to go live. If we are not the right fit, we tell you that too.
