Listen first
We start with what's actually happening in your environment — your tools, your team, the things that worry you — not a generic checklist someone wrote in 2014.
Tex N Spex · Web, App & Ecommerce Practice
Websites, apps, and ecommerce — made clear.
We help small businesses, agencies, and growing teams launch the websites, custom apps, and online stores their customers actually use — built carefully, secured by default, and quietly kept running.

Approach
Three steady steps. No surprises.
Most web and software problems aren't dramatic — they're just unattended. Our process is built to find the things that matter and quietly fix them.
Recommend plainly
You get a clear picture of what's important, what isn't, and what it costs to fix. In writing. Without jargon, urgency tactics, or padding.
Quietly maintain
Once your systems work, we keep them that way — measured updates, periodic reviews, and a real phone call when something matters.
Services
A small, focused practice.
Three areas where we make the biggest difference for the businesses we work with.

A modern, professional website that earns trust and works hard for your business — without the bloated agency price tag.
- New website builds and full redesigns

Custom business apps
Tools built around how your business actually works — not a generic template that mostly fits.

A storefront that's ready to take payments — set up properly the first time, with the security to match.

- Stripe, Square, and payment gateway setup
- Inventory, tax, and shipping configuration

Most clients start with one of these. They're a starting point — the real engagement is shaped by the conversation.

Questions
Things people usually ask.
Are you a fit for our company?
We work best with teams between 5 and 250 people. If you're smaller, we'll often still take a look — and if you're bigger, we're happy to act as an outside reviewer alongside your existing IT team.
One-time engagement, or ongoing?
Both. Most clients start with a defined engagement — a website build, a custom app, a storefront launch — and decide later whether ongoing maintenance and support makes sense. We don't push retainers that aren't earned.
Can you sign an NDA or work with our compliance team?
Yes. We routinely sign NDAs and work alongside legal and compliance contacts. For corporate clients, we can also adapt our process to internal change-management requirements.
Is everything remote?
By default, yes — most engagements are handled remotely from the US. On-site work is available for select clients on a project basis.
What if we already have a developer or agency?
Great. We complement existing teams rather than replace them. An outside build — or a focused second pair of hands — is often the fastest way to ship the thing that's been sitting on the backlog.
How long does an engagement take?
A Website Refresh is typically two to four weeks. A Custom Business App runs four to twelve weeks depending on scope. Ecommerce setups vary based on catalog size — we'll tell you up front.
