When the site needs behavior a CMS will not give you cleanly. Custom interactions, performance work, motion, anything that benefits from owning the code rather than fighting a template. Built on Next.js or similar, hosted where you choose.
Typically used for
- Brand and portfolio sites with custom motion or interactive demos
- Sites with bespoke performance requirements (sub-second loads, animations)
- Marketing sites that need to feel like a product, not a template
- Sites that integrate with internal systems, APIs, or data sources
- Replatforming from a CMS that is fighting you
What you get
Custom hand-coded build on Next.js, deployed to Vercel or your platform of choice. Animation, performance, accessibility, and SEO all considered as first-class concerns. Source code is yours. No platform lock-in.
WHY THIS PRICE
What you're actually paying for
A custom hand-coded website is real engineering, not template assembly. Built on Next.js or similar, deployed wherever you want, source code yours. Custom motion, custom interactions, real performance work.
What's in the work
- Spec and design across every page
- Custom React or Next.js codebase
- Motion design baked into the build (GSAP, Framer Motion, Lottie)
- Performance: Core Web Vitals tuning, lazy loading, image optimization
- SEO with structured data and server-side rendering
- Integration with any backend or API you need
- Deployment pipeline (Vercel, Netlify, or self-hosted)
- Monitoring and analytics
- Source code yours, no platform lock-in
The value it adds
A custom build is the website that doesn't look like a website. The interaction, motion, and performance are what audiences register as "professional" without knowing why. For product brands and creative businesses, the build itself is part of the brand.
