For new website owners · Web Launch Academy

Own your website.
Don't rent it.

Squarespace and Wix charge you forever and you own nothing. We build you a real website — your code, your GitHub, your domain — that you edit in plain English through Mission Control. And you pay $0 until you've test-driven the finished site for a full day.

// The math they don't show you

Website builders are rent.
This you buy once and own.

Squarespace Business runs about $33/month — forever. Five years in you've paid roughly $2,000, you still don't own the site, and the day you stop paying it disappears. A custom developer build runs $5,000–$15,000. We sit right in the middle: a one-time price, you own every file, and there's no monthly bill after launch. Prefer to spread it out? Take a short plan — a handful of payments, then $0 forever— not a subscription you're chained to for years.

// Packages

Two ways to launch.
Both end in ownership.

Every package includes your own GitHub repository, Vercel hosting, custom domain with SSL, an email-capture form with its own database, and Mission Control access — so you make changes in plain English, no developer required. Revisions aren't billed by the round; your included credits cover them.

Build it yourself

Launch Kit

$750one-time · or $150/mo × 5 — then $0, and it’s yours

We set up the professional foundation — repo, hosting, domain, SSL, database, deployment — and hand you $500 in Mission Control credits to build the site yourself by talking to AI. A developer would charge $5k+ for the same foundation. You own it outright.

  • $500 in Mission Control credits — build and revise by chat
  • Your GitHub repo, Vercel hosting, custom domain + SSL
  • Responsive starter page with email-capture form + database table
  • Automatic deployments — edit, preview, publish
  • Health Score tool tracks your site's progress
  • Own the code outright — no monthly bill after launch

Full Launch

$1,500one-time · or $250/mo × 6 — a car payment, then you own the site

Half what a custom developer charges — and you own it the same way.

  • Every health milestone hit — watch the score in your portal
  • Full-day test run before you pay the balance

The Triple-Lock Guarantee

  • Try-It-First — a $100 refundable deposit starts your build; you pay the balance only after you've test-driven the finished site.
  • 90+ or we fix it free — we don't call it done until it hits every health milestone.
  • Own-it-or-it's-free — not thrilled? Get your deposit back. Either way, the code is yours.

Don't take our word for it — we're independently ranked among the top-scoring sites.

Prefer to spread it out? Ask about the short payment plan — a handful of payments, then it's yours with $0/month after. Your site stays live the whole time and is never taken down over a late payment. See the Try-It-First Guarantee.

// Grow as you go

Start small.
Add only what you need.

Every build starts with the baseline — a welcome page and one database table — and you check the extras you want in the builder. Your price adds up live, so there are no surprise invoices. On Full Launch, add-ons are 2× because every one is manually tested before it ships.

Popular add-ons

  • Extra website sections (About, Services, FAQ…)
  • Logins + admin dashboard
  • Payments — Square or Stripe subscriptions
  • Testimonials, blog, newsletter
  • Login with Google · automated tasks · AI images
  • Day-to-day text & layout changes — covered by your credits

Build it your way

Pick a tier, start from the essentials, and add exactly what you need — the total updates as you go. A $100 refundable deposit starts the build; you pay the rest only after your test-drive.
