Honest scope before any money changes hands
A fixed quote with pages or features, timeline and what I need from you. If something is out of scope, you hear it before, not after.

About
Hi, I'm Santosh. I build the websites, apps and automations that bring the work in.
Web designer and developer, working from Mumbai with business owners, founders and agencies, mostly in the US. One person, start to finish.

01 · The short version
Why I work this way.
Since 2020 I have built and fixed websites for businesses, founders and agencies: more than a thousand pages and landing pages, over a hundred complete sites, across WordPress, Webflow, Framer, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify and custom code. Lately that includes web apps in Next.js and React, and small automations.
Agency work taught me what actually makes a site earn its keep: clear offers, pages that match what people search for, a site that loads fast on a phone, and one obvious way to take the next step. It also taught me what clients hate: not knowing who to call, and paying for things they cannot see.
So I work directly with owners and founders now, and with agencies that want the same standard. You talk to the person who builds it. You see a preview link every week. You own the domain, the hosting, the code and every file. And if I'm not the right fit, I say so on the first call. I'm still learning every month, and I say that too.

02 · How I work
Six rules I don't break.
They are the difference between a site that gets launched and a site that gets used.
2Rule 02
One screen approved before the whole thing is built
Hero plus one inside screen first. We fix the look there, then I build the rest.
3Rule 03
Preview links you can open on your phone
No PDFs, no 'imagine it like this'. You see the real thing as it grows.
4Rule 04
Plain-English updates
A short note each week on what changed and what I need. No jargon.
5Rule 05
You own every account, file and line of code
Domain, hosting, forms, analytics, GitHub, all in your name. Nothing held hostage.
6Rule 06
If I'm not the right fit, I'll say so
Some projects need a team or a different specialist. I'll tell you who.

05 · A few facts
Good to know before we talk.
Based in Mumbai, India
I work US hours for calls and replies. Time zones have never been a problem for my clients; a 20-minute call will show you why.
Replies within one business day
Email or a quick call. You will never wonder whether I got your message.
Independent, not an agency
No account managers, no hand-offs. The person on the call is the person who builds it.
Ready when you are
Let's build the thing that brings the work in.
A 20-minute call, no pitch deck. If I'm not the right fit for your project, I'll tell you who might be.
