Our approach

Get more done with less busywork.

Most local businesses don't need a giant platform or a buzzword strategy. They need the thing that's slowing them down to stop slowing them down. That's the job.

Practical over hype

We start with what's broken in your day, not with the newest model. If a simple fix works, you get the simple fix.

No enterprise bloat

Assistants, automations, and workflows sized for a local business. They save hours without adding a new system to babysit.

Built for customers, not clutter

Fast, clear sites and tools your customers understand at a glance, and that you can update yourself.

Who we are

Designers and developers who speak plain English.

Purplecones is a small studio that designs and builds the whole thing: the website, the CMS behind it, the AI tools that take work off your plate, and the custom apps that fill the gaps in your stack.

That means you're not juggling a web designer, an AI consultant, and a custom software developer who don't talk to each other. You get one team that understands how your business actually runs.

We've shipped products across a range of problems:

  • Commonly
  • Construction Dashboards
  • Braid
  • Lochan
  • Gella
  • Old Photo Scanner
  • Lapwing

How we work

End-to-end, from first message to launch.

You tell us what's broken. We handle scoping, design, build, and launch, then hand you something you own and can keep running.

  1. 01 / TALK

    A real reply

    Send a message and a person replies within 24 hours. Not an autoresponder.

  2. 02 / SCOPE

    Scope the fix

    We dig into how you work today and agree on what to build, in plain language.

  3. 03 / BUILD

    Design and build

    Websites, AI workflows, portals, booking, or internal tools, built by the same team.

  4. 04 / LAUNCH

    Launch and hand over

    We ship it and make sure you can update what we build yourself. It's yours.

Tell us what's broken. We'll tell you, straight, how we'd fix it.
