Development studio · Independency

Websites, automationand applicationsthat earn their keep.

We are the development arm of the Independency group. We build websites, internal tools, integrations and automation, and we run the same things for ourselves: our own campaign management system, a hosting panel and six websites in eight languages.

The background is raining the actual source code of this site. Assemble it into a little figure.

We reply within one working day. We ask what the site or tool should bring in before we ask what it should do.

  • Tracking and SEO are part of the brief, not an afterthought

  • One team for design, development and operations

How we build websites

Fast websites you can measure

Next.js and Node.js, pre-rendered pages, green Core Web Vitals on mobile, SEO and tracking from day one, Git deploys. The whole method is written down.

What we built

Products we run every day

Most of what we offer we first built for ourselves. A campaign control system, a hosting panel, a bookkeeping robot, a cookie banner. We know what it means to run software for years, not just hand it over.

How we work

From brief to operations

The same process for a one-week website and a system we build for a year. Only the length of each step differs.

  1. Brief and numbers

    First what the site or tool should bring in: enquiries, orders, hours saved. Only then what it should do. If we do not know what to measure, we do not start.

  2. Design and prototype

    Structure, content and key screens before the first line of code. For websites with DHMO, for tools a clickable prototype straight away.

  3. Development in short iterations

    A working version every week, not a big reveal at the end. You follow progress in Git and on a staging domain.

  4. Tracking and SEO from the start

    GA4, Consent Mode v2, structured data, sitemap, speed. After launch the site is ready for campaigns, not for another project.

  5. Deployment and operations

    Git deploys with a health check and automatic rollback to the previous release. Then we watch uptime, updates and backups.

Why us

Developers who understand marketing

We are not a software house that ships code and disappears. We are part of an agency that uses websites and tools to make money. That changes how we build.

  • We build what we use ourselvesClientDeck, Indepanel, the bookkeeping robot and the cookie banner were built for our own operations. We know what it takes to keep software running for years.
  • Tracking is not an afterthoughtEvery site ships with GA4, Consent Mode v2 and structured data. The agency we belong to builds campaigns on it.
  • No extra licencesOur own CMS, our own cookie banner, our own hosting. You do not pay monthly for plugins we can write.
  • AI where it makes senseWe wire language models into processes: AI proposes, a human approves. Nothing may silently disappear or silently decide.
  • One contact for the whole projectDesign with our sister studio DHMO, development with us, marketing at Independency. No “that is not ours any more”.
  • The code is yoursYou get the repository, the access and the documentation. You can carry on with anyone else at any time.

FAQ

What people ask most

What do you build websites with?

Next.js, React and Node.js, in TypeScript. Pages are pre-rendered on the server, so they are fast and readable for search engines and language models alike. For smaller sites and tools, Node.js with Express and SQLite without a build step is enough. We do not dismiss WordPress or Shoptet, we just do not build on them from scratch; we can integrate with them.

How much does a website or an application cost?

The price is set after an introductory call, by scope. A simpler single-language presentation site is a matter of weeks, a custom system a matter of months. After the first call you get the scope, an hour estimate and a price. We do not work on commission or success fees; we bill hours or a fixed price per stage.

Where will the site run?

Either on our own hosting or on yours. For our own operations we built Indepanel, a panel that deploys sites from Git, checks their health and rolls back to the previous release on failure. When we build a site, we can also run, update and back it up.

Do you do design too?

Website and brand design is done by our sister studio DHMO. You have one contact, we hand things over between ourselves. If you already have a design, we build to it.

Can you integrate AI?

Yes, with care. We use language models where they read, sort and propose: documents, enquiries, copy, account audits. A human always approves the decision and every item has a visible state. That is how we built the bookkeeping robot and the AI audit in ClientDeck.

Who owns the code and the access?

You do. The repository, domain, hosting and service accounts are kept on your accounts or handed over to you. We write documentation so that anyone else can pick up the project.

Why is development on a separate domain when you are part of an agency?

Because development is also requested by companies that handle marketing elsewhere or not at all. Developer Online is the part of Independency that writes code: websites, automation, applications and integrations. The invoicing company is the same, Independency s.r.o.
