how your industry works
Healthcare needs bookings. Trades need quote forms. Real estate needs listings. Retail needs Stripe. We've built for all of it — and we'll bring what we've learned to yours.
Eight industries,
one honest studio
Click any industry to see how we approach it, what a typical build looks like, and where AUD pricing lands.
What every build gets
No matter the industry, four things stay the same. This is what you get with any Build First Site project.
Industry-aware design
We start every project by studying the top 5 sites in your industry. What works, what fails, what's missing.
AUD fixed pricing
You get a written quote before any work starts. It does not move unless the scope does.
Modern stack
Next.js, React, Tailwind, Node — the same modern stack used by large tech companies.
You own the code
Full repo, hosting, domain, every account — yours on completion. No vendor lock-in.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions from businesses across every industry we build for.

Don't see your industry?
These 8 are the ones we've built for most. But we've built for others too. Tell us what you do and we'll take it from there.
We publish our prices upfront, in AUD, before you make any commitment. Three to five page sites from $800, up to ten pages $1,900, unlimited pages $3,500, e-commerce and applications $4,500, and custom software from $5,000. You get a written quote that doesn't move unless the scope does — no hourly billing surprises at the end.
Most agencies in Australia quote $10,000–$50,000 for work we do at a fraction of that, then hide behind account managers and slow turnarounds. We publish fixed prices, build on a modern Next.js stack instead of patching old WordPress sites, and you deal directly with the person building your project — not a middleman relaying messages to an offshore team.
Yes — fully. You get the complete code repository, your domain, your hosting account, and every third-party login. Nothing is held back. If you ever want to move to another developer or agency, you can hand them the codebase and they can pick up exactly where we left off. No platform lock-in, no forced subscriptions.
Landing page: 3–5 days. Business website: 2–4 weeks. E-commerce store: 4–6 weeks. Custom web app: 6–12 weeks. You'll see a live staging link from week one so you can follow along and give feedback as it's built — not just see a finished product at the end.
We build on Next.js and React — the same stack used by large Australian tech companies. WordPress is fine for simple blogs, but it comes with security patches every other week, performance ceilings, and plugins that break. Our builds are faster, more secure, and easier to hand over cleanly. If you specifically need WordPress, we can discuss it.
Yes. We offer local SEO, Google Business Profile setup, technical SEO, and content strategy as standalone services or bundled with your build. Most agencies sell you a site and leave the SEO as an afterthought — we wire it in from the start (page speed, schema, sitemap, meta) so you're not paying a second agency to fix what should have been right the first time.
We work with businesses across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and beyond. All client calls happen in Australian business hours, invoices are in AUD, and we understand the local market — the way Australians search, what they trust, and what converts.
Every project includes 30 days of post-launch support at no extra cost. After that, our Care + SEO plan ($250/month) covers security updates, backups, uptime monitoring, and small content changes. No long lock-in — cancel any month.
