A professional website or webapp for your business, live in days.
Automica builds websites and web apps for small businesses. You tell us about your business in plain English. We design it, build it, hook up the bookings, payments or contact forms you need, and put it live. No agency fees, no quotes with extra zeros, no waiting six weeks for a draft.
Owners who pay the invoice themselves.
We work with the people running the business day to day. The plumber whose old site never ranked. The clinic taking phone bookings on a paper diary. The consultancy with a PDF brochure and a Gmail address. The cafe that wants online ordering without paying a platform 30% of every sandwich.
What ties them together is simple. They want a website that brings in real enquiries or real orders, they want to understand what they are paying for, and they do not want to spend the next three months in meetings with an agency.
That is what we do. We talk to you, we build it, we put it live, and we stay available if something needs changing. No account managers in the middle, no jargon, no surprise invoices.
Five things you actually get.
Live in days, not months
Most small business sites are with you inside a working week. The AI handles the parts that used to take a developer a fortnight, so you get to launch sooner.
One flat price
You agree the price before we start. No hourly billing, no scope creep, no quote with a vague 'from' on the end of it.
Real software, not a brochure
Online bookings, payments, contact forms that actually email you, customer logins, member areas. Whatever your business needs, we wire it up.
Built so you can update it
If you want to change a price, add a new service or swap a photo, you can do it yourself. We show you how on handover.
We answer the phone
After launch, you talk to the same person who built it. No ticket queues, no offshore call centre, no waiting three days for a reply.
Sites that earn their keep.
A few of the things we put together in the last few months. Different businesses, same approach: ship the thing that brings the work in, then keep it sharp.

Everything a small business needs.
Most cheap site-builders give you a homepage and a contact form. Most agencies give you a five-figure quote. We sit in the middle and give you the bits that actually bring work in.
A site that looks the part
Designed around your business and your photos. Reads well on a phone, loads fast, makes a proper first impression when someone Googles you.
Bookings and payments
Take appointments, deposits or full payment online. Connects to Stripe, sends you and the customer a confirmation, drops into your calendar.
Contact forms that work
Sent straight to your inbox, with everything you need to reply: name, number, what they want, when they want it. Spam filtered out.
Customer logins and portals
If your business has repeat customers, members or accounts, we can build a private area for them. Quotes, invoices, past orders, anything you need.
Found on Google
Proper page titles, descriptions, structured data and a sitemap. The basics most cheap site-builders ignore, done right from the start.
Yours to keep
You own the site, the domain, the customer data, the lot. If you ever want to take it elsewhere, you can.
Four steps. No theatre.
Tell us about the business
A short call or a written brief. What you do, who buys from you, what the site needs to actually achieve. No questionnaires with 80 boxes.
We send a fixed price
Within a working day. One number, written scope, timeline. You pay half to start, half on launch.
We build it
Usually a working week for a standard site, two or three for a bigger app. You see it as we go and tell us what to change.
Launch and handover
We put it live, point your domain at it, show you how to update the bits you'll want to change yourself. Done.
