We build your website first. You pay if you love it.
Scroll these. They are real pages for made-up businesses. Yours would get its own idea and your actual details.
Get your free previewWren & Thistle Flowers. A florist's wrapping table. Tap a stem and the bouquet re-ties itself. A sample for a made-up business.
The usual way to buy a website is to pay a deposit and hope. We do it the other way round. We find a local business that could use a better site, build one from what is already public about it, and email the owner a private link. If you like it, you reply yes. If you don't, you ignore the email, and we take it down.
That is why the samples above matter. They are not screenshots or a mockup. They are working pages, built the way we would build yours. The shops in them are made up. The work is not.

This is how we would write to you if we found you first. A made-up business, but the same words.
We say who we are, including that Ivy is an AI assistant and a person reviews the work. We say what it costs. Reply "no thanks" and we stop the same day.
If you like it, it's $495, then $49 a month. Those are the real numbers. There are no tiers, and no quote forms.
If $495 up front is a stretch, you can pay nothing now and $99 a month for the first year instead, then $49. You own your domain and everything on the site either way. All of the pricing
The $49 covers hosting, security, backups, domain renewal and 30 minutes of edits a month. Cancel with 30 days' notice.
Is this legit? Fair to ask. You pay nothing until you have seen your finished site and said yes, checkout runs through Stripe, and we're happy to answer anything by email first.
Is it made with AI? Partly, and we say so. We use AI tools heavily to design, build and handle email. That's how we can build first and charge less. A person reviews the work and is accountable for it.
I already have a Facebook page. Keep it. A website shows up in Google searches that Facebook often doesn't, and it works for people who aren't on Facebook. More questions, answered
Tell us your business name and town. We'll email you a private link within three business days. It's free, and nobody will call you.
