# Swick Labs — full content export > Birmingham boutique web agency. Swick Labs builds websites and AI systems for small and mid-sized UK businesses. We are a boutique studio, not an agency floor: the person who scopes your project is the person who builds it. Every engagement is priced openly in pounds before you speak to anyone, because the single most common complaint about this industry is that nobody will tell you what anything costs until you have sat through a discovery call. This file is the complete service catalogue with full detail. The short index is at /llms.txt. ## About this business - Trading name: Swick Labs - Registered name: Swick Labs Ltd - Company number: 15513520 (registered in England and Wales) - Registered office: Grosvenor House, 11 St Paul's Square, Birmingham B3 1RB - Incorporated: 2024-02-22 - Based in: Birmingham, West Midlands, United Kingdom. Works with clients across the UK. - Contact: hello@swicklabs.com - Website: https://swicklabs.com ## Pricing policy - All 18 services are publicly priced on the website. All prices are in GBP and exclude VAT, which is charged where applicable. - A price marked "from" is a starting point that depends on scope and is confirmed in writing before work begins. - Every other price is fixed for the scope described on that service's page. - A quote builder at /pricing totals a selection. It produces an estimate, not a contractual offer. - Prices are reviewed against UK market rates and change over time. This file reflects the current build. ## Websites & care The build itself — from a five-page site for a new business to a bespoke platform — plus the ongoing cover that keeps it fast, patched and backed up afterwards. ### AI Starter Site - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-starter-site - Price: £1,495 - One-off: £1,495 (fixed) - Timeline: 2–3 weeks The smallest thing worth building. Five pages, written and structured properly, on the same stack we use for every other build — so if the business grows, the site grows with it instead of needing to be thrown away. **Who it suits:** Sole traders and new businesses that need a credible presence quickly, without paying for pages they do not yet have anything to put on — we're a Birmingham studio working with businesses across the West Midlands and the rest of the UK. **What is included:** - Five pages, designed and built to your brand - Copywriting support for each page - Mobile-first, accessible layouts - Contact form with spam protection - Core technical SEO — metadata, sitemap, structured data - Google Business Profile connection - Analytics with cookie consent - Hosting set up and one round of post-launch revisions **Questions:** *What happens if I need more than five pages later?* Additional pages are quoted individually, and the site is built so that adding them is ordinary work rather than a rebuild. If the business outgrows it, the same stack carries over to a Business Website rather than starting again. *Do I own the site?* Yes. The code is yours, and we hand over the repository and hosting access at the end of the project. There is no proprietary page builder holding your content hostage. *What isn't included in the fixed price?* The fixed price covers the five pages and inclusions listed on this page. Anything beyond that — extra pages, custom functionality or ongoing content work — is scoped and quoted separately in writing before it starts, so the published price never moves against you partway through the build. ### AI Business Website - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-business-website - Price: £2,950 - One-off: £2,950 (fixed) - Timeline: 4–6 weeks The standard build, and what most businesses actually need. Enough room for a real service structure, location pages if you serve an area, and the supporting content that makes the site rank rather than merely exist. **Who it suits:** Established SMEs whose current site is dated, slow, or no longer reflects what the business sells — based in Birmingham, we work with businesses across the West Midlands and the rest of the UK. **What is included:** - Ten to fifteen pages including a full service structure - Custom design against your brand, or a light refresh of it - Copywriting for every page - Content management so your team can edit without a developer - Advanced contact and enquiry routing - Full technical SEO and structured data - Performance budget — sub-second loads on mobile - Analytics, consent management and conversion tracking - Two rounds of revisions and a handover session **Questions:** *Can you work with our existing brand guidelines?* Yes, and we prefer to. If you have guidelines we will build to them. If you do not, the Brand & Identity service covers creating them, and can run alongside the build. *Will we be able to edit it ourselves?* Yes. Editable content is managed through an interface your team can use, and the handover session covers it. Structural changes still come back to us. *What happens once the site is live?* You receive full ownership of the code and a handover session covering day-to-day edits. The build itself doesn't include ongoing maintenance, security patching or further development — that's covered separately by a Care Plan, which can be added once the site is live. *Does the AI Business Website have AI built into it?* The fixed-price build is the website itself: ten to fifteen pages with full technical SEO and structured data, so that search engines and AI assistants can read it. It does not include an AI chatbot, voice agent or workflow automation. Those are separate services — the AI Chatbot & Site Assistant, AI Voice Agent and AI Workflow Automation pages — each priced on its own page and available through the quote builder alongside a website build. *How much does an AI Business Website cost, and how long does it take?* The AI Business Website is priced at £2,950 before VAT and takes 4–6 weeks. A scope larger than ten to fifteen pages needs a written quote rather than this published price. ### AI e-Shop - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-ecommerce - Price: £4,950 - One-off: £4,950 (fixed) - Timeline: 6–10 weeks Selling online is mostly an integration problem rather than a design one. The design has to be good, but what determines whether the shop is a pleasure or a burden to run is how cleanly payments, shipping, stock and accounting talk to each other. **Who it suits:** Businesses selling physical or digital products who are outgrowing a marketplace stall or a template store. **What is included:** - Full storefront design and build - Product catalogue setup and import - Payments, including cards and digital wallets - Shipping rules, zones and label integration - Stock management and low-stock alerts - Abandoned-basket recovery - Customer accounts and order history - Accounting integration - Product-level structured data so items appear correctly in search **Questions:** *Shopify or a custom build?* It depends on catalogue size and how unusual your fulfilment is. We will tell you honestly which is cheaper to run over three years — often that is Shopify, and we say so even though a custom build is a larger project for us. *Does the price include platform fees?* No. Platform subscriptions and payment processing fees are paid by you directly to the provider, so you are never paying us a markup on them. We will estimate them before you commit. *What if we need changes to the scope during the build?* Anything outside the catalogue size and integrations agreed at the start — extra product types, additional payment methods, a larger scope generally — is quoted separately in writing before we build it, so the published price only ever covers what was agreed at the outset. ### Bespoke Platform Build - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/bespoke-platform - Price: from £9,500 - One-off: £9,500 (starting price, scope-dependent) - Timeline: 10 weeks and up Booking systems, member portals, internal tools, directories, marketplaces. Priced from rather than fixed, because the honest answer is that the scope determines the number and anyone quoting a flat fee before understanding the scope is guessing. **Who it suits:** Businesses with a workflow that existing software does not fit, where the workaround is now costing real time or revenue. **What is included:** - Discovery and technical specification - Database and architecture design - Custom application build - User accounts, roles and permissions - Third-party API integrations - Admin interface for your team - Automated test coverage - Deployment pipeline and monitoring - Documentation and training **Questions:** *Why is this priced 'from'?* Because a fixed price before discovery would either be padded to cover the unknowns or revised upward later. We run a paid discovery phase first, then quote the build as a fixed figure against an agreed specification. *Can you take over an existing application?* Sometimes. It depends on the state of the code. We will do a paid assessment and tell you plainly whether taking it over or rebuilding it is the better use of your money. *Do we own the finished application?* Yes. On final payment the code, database and documentation are yours outright, along with admin and deployment access. There's no dependency on us to keep it running. Ongoing support is available as a Care Plan if you want it, and optional if you don't. ### Care Plan — Essential - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/care-essential - Price: £79/mo - Recurring: £79 per month - Timeline: Starts immediately The minimum responsible cover for a site you rely on. Most of what goes wrong with a website is preventable, and almost all of it is invisible until the day it is not. **Who it suits:** Starter and small business sites that need to stay secure and online without a growth programme attached. **What is included:** - Security patching and dependency updates - Daily off-site backups, restore-tested quarterly - Uptime monitoring with alerting - SSL and domain renewal management - Monthly performance check - Thirty minutes of content edits each month - Email support, next business day **Questions:** *What counts as a content edit?* Text changes, swapping images, updating opening hours or prices, adding a team member. New pages and new functionality are quoted separately. *Is there a minimum term?* No. Care plans are monthly and you can stop at any time. We will hand over backups and access if you do. *What if we need more than the included 30 minutes of edits?* Extra time is quoted in writing and agreed with you before we start, never added to your invoice as a surprise. If you find you need more than the included time most months, the Business plan includes more hours and may be the better fit — we will say so rather than keep billing extras. ### Care Plan — Business - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/care-business - Price: £149/mo - Recurring: £149 per month - Timeline: Starts immediately For sites that are actively worked on, not merely kept alive. The included development hours are the point: they turn “we should update that” into something that happens. **Who it suits:** Businesses whose website is a working sales channel and needs continuous small improvements. **What is included:** - Everything in the Essential plan - Two hours of development or content work each month - Monthly analytics summary with recommendations - Priority support, same business day - Staging environment for testing changes - Quarterly technical SEO review - Form and conversion monitoring **Questions:** *Do unused hours roll over?* One month, so a quiet January can fund a busy February. They do not accumulate indefinitely — that becomes a liability we would have to price for. *Is there a minimum term?* No. Like all our Care Plans, Business is billed monthly and you can cancel at any time; we will hand over backups and access if you do. *What's not included in the two hours?* The two hours cover development, content changes and small improvements. Larger projects — a new section, an integration, a redesign — are scoped and quoted separately in writing, and don't come out of the monthly allowance. ### Care Plan — Commerce - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/care-commerce - Price: £299/mo - Recurring: £299 per month - Timeline: Starts immediately An online shop that is down is not an inconvenience, it is lost revenue with a timestamp. This plan is built around faster response, tighter monitoring and someone watching the checkout specifically. **Who it suits:** Online shops and any site taking payments where an outage has a direct and measurable cost. **What is included:** - Everything in the Business plan - Four hours of development or content work each month - Checkout and payment monitoring with alerting - Same-day response, including a weekend window - Monthly conversion review - Product feed and structured data maintenance - Peak-season readiness check before your busiest period **Questions:** *What does the weekend window cover?* Faults that stop customers buying — checkout failures, outages, payment errors. Content changes and new work wait for a business day. *Is there a minimum term?* No. Commerce is billed monthly like our other Care Plans, and you can cancel at any time; backups and access are handed over if you do. *What's not included in the four hours?* The four hours cover development, content and small improvements to the existing shop. A new sales channel, a major redesign or a new integration is scoped and quoted separately in writing rather than drawn from the monthly allowance. ## AI products Working AI systems wired into your actual business: an assistant that answers from your own documents, a voice agent that picks up the phone, automations that remove the retyping. ### AI Chatbot & Site Assistant - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-chatbot - Price: from £2,450 + £149/mo - One-off: £2,450 (starting price, scope-dependent) - Recurring: £149 per month - Timeline: 3–5 weeks Trained on your documents, policies, product data and pages — not on general internet text. The engineering that matters is not the chat window, it is making the thing decline to answer when your content does not cover the question, rather than inventing something plausible. **Who it suits:** Businesses answering the same questions repeatedly by email or phone, especially outside working hours — we're based in Birmingham and build these for businesses across the West Midlands and the rest of the UK. **What is included:** - Ingestion of your documents, pages and product data - Retrieval grounded in your content, with citations back to the source - Refusal behaviour when the answer is not in your material - Handover to a human, with the conversation attached - Branded chat interface matched to your site - Conversation logs and gap reporting — what people ask that you cannot answer - Monthly tuning against those gaps **Questions:** *How do you stop it making things up?* It answers only from retrieved passages of your own content and cites them. When retrieval returns nothing relevant it says it does not know and offers a handover. We test this deliberately before launch with questions your content cannot answer. *What does the monthly fee cover?* Hosting, model usage within a fair-use band, monitoring, and monthly tuning against the gap report. Very high volumes are re-quoted rather than silently absorbed. *Where is our data stored?* On infrastructure we control in the EU or UK. Your documents and conversation logs are not used to train any third-party model, and access can be restricted to your team only. This is confirmed in writing as part of the project. ### AI Voice Agent - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-voice-agent - Price: £1,450 + £249/mo - One-off: £1,450 (fixed) - Recurring: £249 per month - Timeline: 2–4 weeks Missed calls are the most expensive thing a small business does without noticing. A voice agent answers every one, handles the routine cases end to end, and passes the rest to you with the context already gathered. **Who it suits:** Trades, clinics, salons, lettings and anyone losing enquiries to voicemail or an engaged tone — we're based in Birmingham and build these for businesses across the West Midlands and the rest of the UK. **What is included:** - Natural-voice inbound call handling - Appointment booking into your existing calendar - Caller qualification against your criteria - Warm transfer to a human when it matters - Call transcripts, summaries and recordings - Out-of-hours and overflow coverage - CRM write-back - A UK number, or porting your existing one **Questions:** *Will callers know it is not a person?* It introduces itself as an automated assistant. We do not build agents that pretend to be human — it is a poor experience when discovered, and it damages trust in the business rather than the software. *What is included in the monthly fee?* The platform, the number, and call minutes within a stated band. Minutes beyond that are billed at cost plus a small margin, itemised. *Is there a minimum term for the monthly fee?* The build is a one-off fee; the monthly fee covers the platform, number and call minutes going forward. If your circumstances change, the specific notice period is confirmed in writing when the agreement is set up rather than fixed here. ### AI Workflow Automation - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-automation - Price: £2,950 - One-off: £2,950 (fixed) - Timeline: 2–6 weeks Deliberately scoped as a pilot on a single workflow. Automation programmes fail when they start broad; they succeed when one painful, well-understood process is automated properly and the result is measured before anything else is attempted. **Who it suits:** Businesses where someone is retyping data between systems, or chasing the same documents every week. **What is included:** - Workshop to map and pick the highest-value workflow - Build and integration across your existing tools - AI steps for extraction, classification or drafting where they help - Error handling and alerting when something needs a human - Live run on real data with a measured before-and-after - Documentation and team training - Thirty days of post-launch support **Questions:** *What if the pilot shows it is not worth automating?* Then you have that answer for £2,950 instead of finding out after a £20,000 programme. We will tell you if the measured saving does not justify continuing. *Do we need to change our existing software?* Usually not. Automation sits between the tools you already use. If a tool has no integration path at all, we will flag it during the workshop rather than after the build. *What happens after the thirty days of post-launch support ends?* The automation keeps running — nothing switches off. If you want ongoing monitoring, tuning or new workflows automated after that window, that's scoped and quoted separately in writing rather than assumed as part of the pilot. ### AI Knowledge Base - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-knowledge-base - Price: from £3,950 - One-off: £3,950 (starting price, scope-dependent) - Timeline: 4–8 weeks A private, searchable layer over everything your business knows — contracts, manuals, policies, past projects. Answers cite the source document and page, so anyone can verify a claim rather than trusting it. **Who it suits:** Organisations where the answer exists in a document nobody can find, and staff ask a colleague instead. **What is included:** - Ingestion across file shares, cloud storage and email - Semantic search across the whole corpus - Answers with citation to source document and page - Access control so people see only what they should - Bulk import of historical archives - Admin interface for curation and removal - Usage analytics showing what is being asked **Questions:** *Where does our data live?* On infrastructure we control in the EU or UK, or in your own cloud tenancy if you prefer. Your documents are not used to train anyone's model. This is written into the contract. *How current are the answers?* New and changed documents are re-indexed on a schedule you set — typically nightly. Deleted documents drop out of results on the same cycle. *How are changes to scope priced?* The starting price is confirmed in writing once we understand the size of your corpus and how many sources need connecting. Anything that grows the scope after that — more sources, more users, extra integrations — is quoted separately before we build it. ## AI search & growth Being found — in Google, and increasingly in ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews, where the answer is synthesised and there is no blue link to click. ### AI Search Optimisation (GEO) - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-search-optimisation - Price: £1,950 + £995/mo - One-off: £1,950 (fixed) - Recurring: £995 per month - Timeline: Setup 3–4 weeks, then ongoing AI assistants increasingly answer the question instead of listing links, and the businesses named in those answers get the enquiry. Being cited is a different discipline from ranking: it depends on how clearly your content states facts, how well your entity is defined, and whether machines can parse you at all. **Who it suits:** Businesses in considered-purchase categories where buyers research before enquiring — the queries assistants answer most. **What is included:** - Entity foundation — consistent, machine-readable identity across the web - Structured data across every relevant page type - Content restructured into extractable, citable claims - llms.txt and AI crawler access configured correctly - Monthly citation tracking across the major assistants - Competitive share-of-answer reporting - Ongoing content work against the gaps found **Questions:** *How long before this shows results?* Meaningful movement usually takes around ninety days, because assistants rebuild their view of an entity slowly. Anyone promising faster does not control the systems involved. *Is this just SEO with a new name?* There is real overlap — both need good technical foundations. The differences are entity consistency, claim-level extractability and citation tracking, none of which conventional SEO reporting measures. If you only want one, and you are local, start with SEO. *Is there a minimum term for the ongoing work?* The setup is a one-off fee. For the ongoing monthly work, the specific term is confirmed in writing when we agree the engagement, reflecting that citation building takes months rather than weeks to show properly. ### AI SEO Retainer - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-seo-retainer - Price: £795/mo - Recurring: £795 per month - Timeline: Ongoing, three-month minimum Ordinary search optimisation, done properly and reported honestly. AI is used where it genuinely helps — analysing competitors at scale, finding gaps, clustering intent — and not used to mass-produce pages nobody wants to read. **Who it suits:** Businesses with a working site that need consistent search growth rather than a one-off fix — we're based in Birmingham and run this for businesses across the West Midlands and the rest of the UK. **What is included:** - Technical audit and continuous remediation - Keyword and intent research - On-page optimisation across the site - Two commissioned content pieces each month - Internal linking strategy - Local SEO and Google Business Profile management - Digital PR outreach for links - Monthly reporting against revenue, not just rankings **Questions:** *Why a three-month minimum?* Because nothing meaningful is measurable before then, and a one-month engagement would mean charging you for work neither of us can evaluate. *Do you guarantee first-page rankings?* No, and neither can anyone else. We report what moved, what did not, and what we are changing as a result. *What isn't included in the retainer?* The retainer covers the work listed on this page — technical, on-page and content work, plus reporting. Paid advertising, a full site rebuild or work outside the agreed scope is quoted separately rather than drawn from the retainer. ### AI Content Engine - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-content-engine - Price: £595/mo - Recurring: £595 per month - Timeline: Ongoing, monthly AI drafts, a human researches and edits, and nothing publishes without a named person having checked it. The failure mode of AI content is volume without substance, which search engines and readers both punish; the process here is built specifically to avoid it. **Who it suits:** Businesses that know they should publish consistently and have never managed to sustain it. **What is included:** - Four researched, edited articles each month - Content strategy mapped to what your buyers actually search - Human research and fact-checking on every piece - Original imagery or diagrams where they help - Publication, formatting and internal linking - Structured data for each piece - Quarterly refresh of older content that has decayed **Questions:** *Will this read as AI-written?* It should not. Every piece is researched and edited by a person, and we will not publish something that fails that bar. If a draft cannot be made good, it does not go out and it does not count against your allocation. *Who is credited as the author?* Whoever you nominate, or the business itself. We will not invent a fictional author with a fabricated biography, which is a common and damaging shortcut. *Is there a minimum term for this plan?* The specific term is confirmed in writing when the engagement starts, in the same way as our other monthly plans. Content work generally needs a few months before its effect is measurable, so it's worth planning for that when you decide how long to run it. ### AI Lead Generation - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-lead-generation - Price: from £2,450 + £199/mo - One-off: £2,450 (starting price, scope-dependent) - Recurring: £199 per month - Timeline: 4–6 weeks to build, then ongoing Prospect research and personalisation at a scale a person cannot match, deliberately built inside UK and EU rules rather than around them. Volume without compliance is a route to a blocked domain and a fine. **Who it suits:** B2B businesses with a defined customer profile and a sales process that converts once a conversation starts. **What is included:** - Ideal customer profile definition - Automated prospect research and enrichment - Personalisation grounded in real, verified detail - Sending infrastructure with domain warm-up and authentication - UK GDPR and PECR compliance built into the process - Suppression lists and one-click unsubscribe honoured properly - CRM integration and reply routing - Performance reporting by segment **Questions:** *Is cold outreach legal in the UK?* B2B email to corporate subscribers is permitted under PECR with a valid opt-out and clear identification; sole traders and partnerships are treated as individuals and need consent. We build to that distinction rather than ignoring it, and we will not run a campaign that requires ignoring it. *Will this damage our domain reputation?* Not if it is done on separate sending infrastructure with proper warm-up and authentication, which is exactly why the build phase takes weeks rather than days. *What isn't included in the monthly fee?* The monthly fee covers the sending infrastructure, compliance work and reply routing. Platform and data-enrichment costs from third-party providers are paid separately, and any change to your ideal customer profile or targeting beyond the original brief is scoped and quoted before we act on it. ## Brand, audit & rescue Identity work, an honest assessment of where AI would actually pay for itself, and getting an existing site off a platform that is failing you. ### Brand & Identity - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-brand-identity - Price: £1,450 - One-off: £1,450 (fixed) - Timeline: 3–4 weeks Enough identity to look coherent everywhere, without the strategy programme that larger studios attach to it. Most small businesses need a mark, a system and rules — not a forty-page brand narrative. **Who it suits:** New businesses, and established ones whose identity has drifted into three different logos and five shades of the same blue. **What is included:** - Discovery session and competitive review - Three initial logo directions, then refinement of one - Primary and secondary colour palette, accessibility-checked - Typeface selection and hierarchy - Logo files in every format and lockup you will need - Brand guidelines document - Social media and email templates - Business card and letterhead artwork **Questions:** *Do we own the logo outright?* Yes, in full, on final payment. You receive the source files, not just exports. *Can you refresh our existing logo instead of replacing it?* Often that is the better call, and it is cheaper. If your mark has recognition worth keeping we will say so rather than selling you a rebrand you do not need. *What's not included in the fixed price?* The fixed price covers the logo, palette, typography, guidelines and the applications listed on this page. Anything beyond that — a full brand strategy document, packaging, signage or further collateral — is scoped and quoted separately in writing. ### AI Readiness Audit - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/ai-readiness-audit - Price: £495 - One-off: £495 (fixed) - Timeline: 1–2 weeks A fixed-fee, deliverable-based audit that ends in a written recommendation. It frequently concludes that one or two narrow things are worth automating and the rest is not, which is a more useful answer than an enthusiastic one. **Who it suits:** Businesses being told they need AI and wanting a straight answer about where, if anywhere, it applies to them. **What is included:** - Review of your current tools, workflows and data - Interviews with the people doing the work - Opportunities ranked by return and by effort - Realistic cost and payback estimate for each - An explicit list of what we recommend you do not automate - Written report and a walkthrough call - Twelve-month roadmap if the case is there **Questions:** *Is this just a sales pitch?* The report includes what not to do, and clients regularly leave with a recommendation to change one process and spend nothing further. If we thought the audit had to end in a sale we would not charge for it. *Is the fee credited if we proceed?* Yes — the full £495 comes off the first project you commission within three months. *What happens after we receive the report?* You keep the written report and roadmap regardless of what you decide next. There's no obligation to commission further work, and if you do, the audit fee is credited against it as described above — the report is yours either way. ### Website Rescue & Migration - URL: https://swicklabs.com/services/website-rescue - Price: from £1,950 - One-off: £1,950 (starting price, scope-dependent) - Timeline: 3–5 weeks Moving a site off a platform that is failing it, with the rankings intact. We have done this on our own domain: the previous version of this site was a WordPress install that a plugin conflict took offline entirely, which is exactly the failure this service exists to undo. **Who it suits:** Anyone with a site that is slow, repeatedly broken, expensive to maintain, or stuck on a platform nobody will touch — we're a Birmingham-based studio working with businesses across the West Midlands and the rest of the UK. **What is included:** - Full audit of the existing site and its content - Content migration with structure preserved - Complete redirect map so rankings survive the move - Rebuild on a fast, maintainable stack - Performance and Core Web Vitals remediation - Security hardening and malware removal where needed - DNS and email cutover planned so mail is never interrupted - Post-launch monitoring through the indexing transition **Questions:** *Will we lose our search rankings?* Not if the redirect map is complete, which is the part most migrations get wrong. Every old URL is mapped to its new home before launch and verified after. *What about our email?* Email is the most common casualty of a website move, because mail records frequently follow the same DNS entry the website uses. We map the mail path first, decouple it, and prove delivery before anything is repointed. *Do we own the rebuilt site?* Yes. On final payment the code, content and hosting access are yours outright, in the same way as a new build. The starting price is confirmed in writing once we've audited the existing site and know the real scope of the migration. ## How we work We design. We innovate. We elevate. We implement.
