Development studio · Registered in the UK
One desk.
Four disciplines.
No handoffs.
The person who scopes your project is the person who builds it. WordPress, Next.js with AI wired in properly, email that lands, and SEO that compounds — shipped by a small senior team, not passed down to juniors.
Free scoping. A straight answer within one working day — including “you don't need us for this” when that's the truth.

Sound familiar?
Most people don't arrive wanting a website. They arrive with a problem.
“The site takes eight seconds to load.”
UsuallyUsually twelve plugins, a page builder runtime, and unoptimised images fighting each other. Rarely the host, despite what the host says.
We doPlugin audit, query profiling, and a native theme — or a targeted rescue if a rebuild isn't warranted.
“We rank for our own name and nothing else.”
UsuallyPages are either not indexed, thin, or competing with each other for the same term. Search Console usually says so plainly once someone reads it.
We doTechnical audit first, then structure and content built around what people actually search.
“Our developer disappeared mid-build.”
UsuallyHalf-finished custom code, no documentation, and credentials nobody has. The most common project we inherit.
We doWe audit what exists before quoting, so you're not paying us to relearn it blind.
“We're doing this manually and it's eating the week.”
UsuallyA workflow that outgrew a spreadsheet — bookings, approvals, content production, reporting.
We doA Next.js application or custom plugin that does the repetitive part, with AI only where it earns its place.
What we build
WordPress Development
For teams who have outgrown page builders.
Custom themes and plugins written properly, not assembled from a marketplace. If your site has slowed to a crawl under twelve plugins and a builder, this is the way out — a build you can hand to any developer afterwards.
- Custom themes built to your design, no builder dependency
- WooCommerce stores with payment gateways wired in
- LearnDash course platforms and membership sites
- Typical
- 2–6 weeks
- Stack
- WordPress · WooCommerce · LearnDash
Next.js & AI Development
Applications where AI does a job, not a demo.
React and Next.js applications with Claude or OpenAI wired into the product logic from the start — content pipelines, search, support, automation. If the AI could be removed without anyone noticing, it should not have been there.
- Next.js App Router applications, server-rendered and fast
- Claude and OpenAI integrations inside real product workflows
- SaaS dashboards and internal tools
- Typical
- 3–10 weeks
- Stack
- Next.js · React · TypeScript
Email Marketing
Campaigns that reach the inbox, then get opened.
Deliverability first — SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and list hygiene — because the best-written campaign is worthless in a spam folder. Then flows and newsletters built around what your customers actually do.
- Deliverability audit and DNS setup (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
- Automation flows: welcome, abandoned cart, re-engagement
- Newsletter templates that render correctly everywhere
- Typical
- 1–4 weeks
- Stack
- Klaviyo · Mailchimp · Drip
SEO
Rankings that hold, not a one-month spike.
Technical foundations, on-page work, and content structure — in that order. We run this against our own news platform daily before recommending it to anyone, so the advice comes from a live site, not a course.
- Technical audits: crawlability, indexation, Core Web Vitals
- Schema markup and structured data
- On-page optimisation and internal linking architecture
- Typical
- Ongoing, 3-month minimum
- Stack
- Google Search Console · GA4 · Screaming Frog
Not sure which you need?
The honest version of the question we get asked most.
You don't need to arrive knowing whether it's a WordPress build, a Next.js application, or neither. Describe the outcome and we'll place it — here's roughly how that reasoning goes.
How it works
From first message to handover, without the agency theatre.
- Brief
Brief
You send four lines: what, current state, deadline, rough budget.
5 minutes
- Scope call
Scope call
We come back with what it actually takes — or tell you it isn't worth building.
Within 1 working day
- Fixed quote
Fixed quote
One number, one timeline, written scope. No hourly meter, no scope creep.
2–3 days
- Build in slices
Build in slices
Weekly checkpoints on staging. You see working software, not status reports.
2–10 weeks
- Launch & handover
Launch & handover
Deployed to infrastructure you own, documented so anyone can maintain it.
Launch week
What you get
Included in every engagement, not sold as extras.
Fixed price, agreed first
One number and a written scope before any work begins. No hourly meter running in the background.
Code you fully own
No licences, no lock-in, no clause that makes us necessary next year. Repository and accounts handed over.
Staging before production
You review working software weekly on a real URL — not screenshots in a status email.
Written handover
Documentation on where to edit what, plus a walkthrough session so your team isn't dependent on us.
Core Web Vitals as standard
Performance isn't an upsell. Every build ships measured against real Lighthouse and field data.
Search Console configured
Indexing, sitemaps, and structured data set up at launch rather than bolted on when rankings don't appear.
Expectations, set honestly
SEO doesn't work the way it's sold to you.
Technical fixes land fast and then flatten. On-page work builds over a couple of months. Content and authority start slowest and end highest — which is exactly why the cheap monthly packages that only do the first one look great for six weeks and then stall.
We tell you which curve your money is buying before you spend it.

Illustrative model of how each type of work compounds — not a single client's results. It's why we ask for a three-month minimum: anyone promising rankings in week three is selling you the flat part of the green line.
Placing us
You're probably weighing three options. Here's where we sit.
| What you're comparing | Kohenor | Full agency | Cheapest marketplace bid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who writes your code | The person you briefed | A team you never meet | Unknown, often subcontracted |
| Pricing model | Fixed quote before work starts | Hourly, plus change requests | Low bid, then change fees |
| Typical first reply | Within one working day | After a sales call is booked | Instant, usually templated |
| What you own at the end | All code, docs, and accounts | Varies — often their retainer | Whatever survives handover |
| Page builder dependency | None unless you want it | Whatever their template uses | Almost always a builder |
| If it breaks in a year | Any developer can pick it up | You're back on the retainer | Frequently a rebuild |
| Honest 'you don't need this' | Said before you're invoiced | Rarely — scope is revenue | Never |
Middle and right columns describe common patterns, not any particular firm — plenty of agencies and freelancers are excellent. This is to help you place us.
