Outside the boxes
Customer portals, internal tools, APIs, and integrations.
Some Tampa Bay small businesses need more than a marketing site: a customer portal, an internal tool, a backend an enterprise team would be proud of. We scope and quote those individually so you only pay for what you actually need. Past Custom work has run from a $400 Shopify theme tweak to backend builds well into five figures.
- Customer portals, member areas, dashboards
- Custom backends, typed APIs, third-party integrations
- Multi-location builds with location pages and heavy local SEO
- Logo design and brand identity, standalone or paired with a build
- Smaller scopes that would be overkill at Starter
From $400 for small scopes

Project shapes and starting ranges.
-
Customer portal
$5k to $15k
Login, role-based dashboards, billing, document storage.
-
Internal dashboard or admin tool
$4k to $12k
Your team's day-to-day software, built for the way you actually work.
-
Multi-location site with location pages
$4k to $10k
Distinct content per location, heavy local SEO, programmatic city pages.
-
Custom Shopify theme work
$400 to $3k
When off-the-shelf is the wrong tool but a full rebuild is overkill.
Custom work is genuinely scope dependent. Public ranges and a flat-fee scoped quote in writing before any build. We do not put a fake fixed price on the page that we will renegotiate later.
What it has actually shipped as
Three real builds, technical depth surfaced.

Send what you have, we send a detailed proposal.
One paragraph or one screenshot is enough. We reply by email with the questions we'd need answered, then send a detailed proposal: scope, stack, timeline, and a fixed-price quote in 3 business days. Free. If we discover what you actually need is a $1,800 Starter site, we will say so.

FAQ
St. Petersburg questions.
Do you build for breweries on Central Ave?
Yes. We build for craft breweries on Central Avenue, around Grand Central, and in the Edge District: taproom hours, beer release pages, event calendars, and connectors for Untappd or Square so the tap list stays current without us touching it.
Can you work with a Grand Central retailer?
Yes. We handle small Grand Central and Edge District boutiques on a flat-fee build. That includes basic Shopify or custom-cart setup if you sell online, local SEO for Central Avenue searches, and a CMS the owner can use to swap product photos and hours.
Do you handle multi-location restaurant groups?
Yes. We build single sites that route to multiple locations, with per-location menus, hours, and reservations through OpenTable or Resy, plus a shared brand layer. We've built this pattern for groups with two to five locations between St. Pete and Tampa.
Other service areas
We also build in.
