Custom Web Development
This is the core of what The Osprey does: custom-built websites and web applications, coded from scratch to fit your business instead of bent to fit a template. Every build runs through an AI-accelerated development workflow I've spent years refining — which means less time billed for boilerplate and repetitive setup, and more time spent on the details that actually move the needle: the copy, the conversion paths, the integrations, the parts a template can't fake. The result is senior-level custom engineering at a price point and speed that used to only be possible from a much larger team.

Frequently asked
How much does a custom website cost?
Most projects land between $1,000 and $10,000 depending on complexity and integrations. A focused single-template launch site starts around $1,000–$2,500. A fully custom build — custom design, more pages, CMS, and integrations — typically runs $3,000–$4,000 and up. Larger builds with e-commerce, multiple integrations, or custom logic can run toward $10,000. See the full breakdown on the Pricing page.
Does the price include logo or brand design?
No — pricing covers the website build itself, not logo development or a full brand identity. If you already have a logo and brand colors, I'll build around them. If you need branding done, I'm happy to coordinate with a designer or point you to one.
What does 'AI-accelerated' actually mean for my project?
It means I use modern AI-assisted engineering tools throughout development to move faster on the repetitive parts of a build — scaffolding, boilerplate, first-pass implementation — so more of the budget and timeline goes toward the custom work that's specific to your business, not toward me typing the same setup code every project needs. You still get a hand-reviewed, hand-tuned final product; the tooling just changes how fast I can get there.
How long does a typical build take?
A launch-tier site usually takes 1–3 weeks. A fully custom build with integrations is typically 3–6 weeks depending on scope and how quickly content and feedback come back to me.
