Most agencies sell you a promise. We show you the receipts.

Every agency says it's strategic, senior and results-driven. Here is what working with us actually looks like, and where you can check it for yourself.

The usual agency Synmek
01Pricing A quote after three calls and a "discovery phase" you pay for. Prices are published before you ask. You know the range before we ever speak. See our pricing
02Who builds it Seniors win the pitch, then the work goes to juniors or an offshore partner. One in-house team designs and builds it. The people on the call are the people on the code. Meet the team
03How it's built A theme, a page builder and thirty plugins, dressed up to look custom. Hand-coded, with no page builders and no plugin sprawl. Fast, secure and yours to keep. See a hand-coded build
04Proof Logo walls and "+300% growth" with no period, no source and no client name. Case studies documented end to end. Every result has a period and a source, or it isn't published. See a sourced case study
05After launch Hand-over, invoice, silence. Changes go to the back of the queue. We stay on as the product team. BuiltUp still ships with us every month, across web, iOS and Android. See a long-term product

Six phases. You sign off the end of each one.

Each phase ends in something you can hold: a research summary, a sitemap, a clickable prototype, a staging site. The next one doesn't start until you've approved it.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    We learn the business before we touch the product: the goals, the users, the constraints and what has already been tried.

    • Discovery call
    • Stakeholder interviews
    • Technical audit
  2. 02

    Research

    Users, competitors and the market, so decisions rest on evidence rather than taste.

    • User research
    • Competitor analysis
    • Market validation
  3. 03

    Strategy

    The shape of the product: what goes where, what each page has to prove, and the order it gets built in.

    • Information architecture
    • Wireframes
    • Roadmap
  4. 04

    Design

    Interfaces and a design system drawn from the strategy, prototyped and reviewed before any code is written.

    • UI design
    • Prototypes
    • Design system
  5. 05

    Build

    Hand-coded in sprints and tested as it goes. No page builders, no templates, no plugin sprawl.

    • Sprint development
    • QA testing
    • Iteration
  6. 06

    Launch & Grow

    Deployment and monitoring, then the search and conversion work that keeps it improving after launch.

    • Deployment
    • Monitoring
    • Optimisation & support
We went through several web development companies before coming across Synmek, and we were so thrilled (and relieved) to meet them. The team is extremely professional, always on top of everything; super easy to communicate with and very quick on processing any updates on our webpage.

Questions, answered straight.

Everything you need to know before we start working together.

Timelines vary based on scope and complexity. A marketing website typically takes 6–10 weeks from discovery to launch. Custom web applications and SaaS platforms range from 10–16 weeks for an MVP. We provide a detailed timeline during our discovery phase, and we never start building until the plan is approved.
Projects start from £5,000 for focused engagements and scale with complexity. Our price ranges are published on the pricing page, so you know the range before we speak. After a free discovery call you get a fixed quote with a full breakdown of deliverables, timelines and costs.
Both. We've partnered with solo founders launching their first MVP and enterprise teams scaling existing platforms. What matters to us isn't your company size — it's your ambition and commitment to building something great.
We choose the right tool for the job, not the trendiest framework. Our core stack includes WordPress, PHP, Laravel, React, Next.js, Node.js, and Python on the backend; modern CSS, GSAP, and Figma on the design side; and AWS, Vercel, and Docker for infrastructure. For mobile, we work with Swift, Kotlin, React Native, and Flutter.
Absolutely. We offer maintenance plans starting from £299/month that include core updates, security monitoring, daily backups, performance optimisation, and priority support. We believe the real work begins at launch — that's when data starts informing better decisions.
Every project follows our six-phase methodology: Discovery, Research, Strategy, Design, Build, and Launch. We don't skip steps. Design decisions are backed by user research and competitive analysis, not personal preference. You'll see wireframes before we touch colour palettes, and prototypes before we write production code.

Tell us what you're building. We'll tell you what it takes.

A free 30-minute call with the people who'd do the work. You leave with an honest view of scope, timeline and cost, whether or not you hire us.
