Web development
A website that works, built in weeks.
Marketing sites and custom web apps, designed and built by a small senior team. AI chat, search, and automation baked in from the first commit, not bolted on later. You own the code.
The problem
Why this costs you work.
Most web projects stall the same way. An agency takes a quarter and a five-figure retainer to ship a brochure, or a freelancer disappears mid-build, or a template locks your content inside a tool you rent forever. You end up with a site that looks fine and does nothing. A build should answer a real question: does this turn a visitor into a customer, and can your team run it without us? Ours does, and yours can.
How it works.
We set it up, train it on your business, and run it. You answer when you want.
We scope the real thing on a call
Not a discovery deck. We map who the site is for, the one action it needs to drive, and the shortest path to shipping a working slice you can put in front of real users.
We build it AI-native
Chat, search, lead capture, and automation are part of the architecture, not a plugin. The site reads incoming work and does the next thing, the same pattern we build into every Nova system.
We ship in weeks and hand you the keys
A live site, on your domain, with the code in your repository. Mobile-first, PageSpeed 90+, built to rank. No lock-in, no rented platform, no monthly ransom to keep your own site.
Every build is scoped on a free call. Philippine engineering keeps custom work well below typical US-agency rates, and you own the code at the end.
No retainers to keep your own site running. We scope the project, build it, and hand it over.

More from Nova
Common questions.
- How long does a custom website build take?
- Send the rough idea and who it is for, and Nova sends back a scope, a timeline and a modeled starting range within 48 hours. The build aims for a live first slice in weeks rather than a quarter, then iterates from real use.
- What does a custom website cost?
- Custom builds are scoped per project, so there is no published price: the scope decides the number. Nova sends a modeled starting range with the scope, within 48 hours of the idea. For what other firms and builders publish, and how solid each figure is, read the post How much does custom software cost in 2026?
- Do I own the code?
- Yes. The site goes live on your domain with the code in your repository. There is no rented platform and no monthly fee to keep your own site.
- Do you build web apps or only marketing sites?
- Both. Web development covers marketing sites and custom web apps, built with chat, search, lead capture and automation in the architecture instead of bolted on later.
- Is this the same as the contractor website tiers?
- No. The contractor website tiers (Starter, Growth and Pro, from $600 setup plus $149 a month) are fixed-price sites for home-service businesses. Web development is a custom, scoped-per-project build for a site or web app that does not fit those tiers.
