Why build custom instead of using a website builder like Wix or Squarespace?

Builders are fine for a simple brochure, but you're renting a generic template on their platform — limited on SEO/AEO structure, performance, and anything custom. We build you a fast, search- and AI-optimized site (or a full app) engineered to rank, custom to exactly what your business needs — and your data is yours.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on scope — a focused landing page is very different from a full web app with accounts and integrations. We look at what you actually need and give you a clear estimate before any work starts.

Consultation, then research and design, then development, testing, and launch — with you involved at each step so the result matches what you had in mind.

What technologies do you use?

We favor modern tooling — React and Next.js for most builds — but we adapt to your project's needs and integrate with the CRMs, APIs, and third-party services you already use.

Can you build mobile apps too?

Yes — we build iOS and Android apps from development through store submission, alongside web apps and marketing sites.

Web & Custom Software Development

Fast, custom-built websites and software your business runs on — designed to convert and built to be found.

Start the conversation

Akira builds fast, modern, conversion-focused websites AND the custom software behind a business — web and mobile applications with accounts, payments, data, and integrations. From a marketing site engineered to rank and convert to a full custom app, we handle development, the databases, and the hosting — all custom-built for your business, with your data yours, not a generic template.

A full-stack build you own — fast, found, and yours.

What you get

A fast, mobile-first website built custom for your business
A technical-SEO foundation baked in
Custom software — web and phone apps — where you need them
First-party analytics + tracking you own
Secure hosting, with your data yours

Most agencies stop at a marketing site. We go further: we build the custom software that actually runs your business — the web and mobile apps, the data, and the integrations — engineered from the first line of code to get found, load fast, and do real work.

Websites that rank and convert

Clean, modern design paired with the technical foundations search engines and AI crawlers reward — semantic structure, structured data, fast load times, and clear calls to action. It ranks in search and AI answers, then converts the visitors it earns.

Web and phone apps

Beyond marketing sites, we build custom web applications and iOS/Android apps — from a focused landing page to a full product with accounts, payments, and integrations, handled from development through launch.

Fast and technically sound

Performance is a feature: quick load times, optimized images, and a solid architecture. We build on modern tooling — we favor React and Next.js — and adapt to whatever your project actually needs.

Data and hosting

Every app needs somewhere to keep its data. We help you choose the right database (SQL or NoSQL), set it up securely with backups and sensible access control, and handle media and hosting so the whole thing runs and scales.

How this compares

The usual off-the-shelf approach versus a system built around your business.

How a typical approach compares to how Akira builds it
A template website	Built by Akira
A theme you fill in yourself	Custom-built and engineered to convert
Looks done, then goes stale	Built on a real technical-SEO foundation
Just a marketing site	Plus the custom software your business runs on
Locked into their platform	You own your site and your data

What to expect

We reply within a day

No bots, no drip sequence — a real response to what you sent.

A quick scoping chat

We learn your goals and tell you honestly whether we're the right fit.

A plan + a clear quote

A recommendation and transparent pricing. No pressure, no lock-in.

How pricing works: it’s productized and done-for-you — a one-time build to set it up for your business, then an ongoing monthly to run and improve it. No bloated retainers, no long lock-in; we quote transparently once we understand your scope.
