Frequently Asked Questions

What if I don't know exactly what's wrong?
Totally fine. Send what you're seeing and we'll dig in, or point you the right way if it's outside our wheelhouse.
Do you work with WordPress sites?
Yes. We've handled WordPress themes, plugins, performance, security, and migrations for years, and we'll say so if a modern-stack redesign fits better.
Can you help with AI/vibe coding projects?
Absolutely. If Cursor, Copilot, or ChatGPT got you stuck, we can unstick it.
How fast can you start?
Urgent issues are often within 24 to 48 hours. Larger projects get a clear start date up front, and retainer clients get priority.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes. We're happy to sign a reasonable NDA, and we treat your information as confidential either way.
What if I need ongoing help but not a full retainer?
Hourly works with no minimum. The retainer is for regular support at a better rate with priority access.
Can you manage a team or project for me?
Yes. We can help with team process, code reviews, or fractional technical leadership, and we'll figure out what fits.
