Technology studio ยท Rochester, NY
Practical technology help for small businesses.
Tell us what’s slowing your business down. We’ll help you work out what to fix first, then build it with you, starting with the website.
Based in Rochester. Working with small businesses anywhere.
How we help
Start with the problem. We’ll find the project.
Every business is different, so we start by listening. Most of what we hear lands in one of these three areas.
Your website
New sites and rebuilds on WordPress, fast on phones and easy for you to update.
“Our site is out of date and nobody knows how to change it.”
Email & Google Workspace
Business email, shared files, and calendars set up properly for your whole team.
“Our files live on one person’s laptop.”
Everyday tools & AI
Simple automations for repetitive work, and AI where it actually saves time.
“We type the same information into three places every day.”
Something else? Tell us anyway. Working out what to fix first is part of the job.
How it works
A conversation, a plan, then the work.
1
Tell us what’s going on
A conversation about your business and what’s getting in the way.
2
Get a clear plan
A short written plan: what we’d do, in what order, and what it involves. You decide from there.
3
We build it with you
The work happens in small steps you can see and review, and we stay on to help after it’s done.
When we build your website
Every site follows the same written standard.
Here’s what that means for you, whether or not you ever look under the hood.
You approve it first
Every change is reviewed on a private copy of your site before it goes live.
Every change on record
Full version history, so anything can be traced or undone.
Tested before launch
We check speed on phones and accessibility, and fix what fails before the site goes live.
Backed up every day
Automatic daily backups, stored away from the server.
Kept up to date
Security updates go through the private copy first, on a regular schedule.
Yours to understand
A plain-language guide to your site, and a clear agreement on who runs it after launch.
From the lab
We build our own software, too.
Two learning tools for instructors, both in use in classrooms today.
Python practice
Live
PyPractice
Students write and run real Python in the browser, with an AI tutor that asks questions instead of handing over answers. Grades go straight to Canvas.
Spreadsheet practice
In classrooms
SheetPractice
Auto-graded spreadsheet exercises that check how each formula was built, so a typed-in answer doesn’t pass. Grades go straight to Canvas.
