Three services. One person behind all of them.

Websites are the main thing. IT and custom work are here for when the rest of your tech needs an owner too. Each one spells out what is included, what it costs, and how you pay.

The main thing

Websites & Tools

Sites plus the custom tools behind them: bookings, quote requests, intake forms, online stores, dashboards, client portals. Care plans so it never goes stale.

For the weird stuff

Custom Work

POS systems, servers and storage, networks and big-property WiFi, cameras, phone systems, moves, rewires, and migrations, plus automations that answer questions, send reminders, and chase invoices. Ten years of IT, and I've seen most of it.

Starts at
$110 per hour
Or
A fixed written quote once I've seen the problem
Billing
Small fixes hourly. Bigger jobs get a written price first.

The job

What a CTO for a small business does.

Big companies pay someone full time to own their technology. Small ones usually have nobody, so it lands on whoever is "good with computers."

I take that job off your plate.

  1. Pick

    Picks the right tools, and tells you when not to buy one.

    I'd rather talk you out of a tool than sell you one you'll cancel in three months.

  2. Build

    Builds what's missing.

    The site, the booking flow, the form that lands in the right place, the dashboard that answers the question you keep asking.

  3. Run

    Keeps it running.

    Steady oversight during business hours. Not a 24/7 helpdesk, and steady oversight means emergencies get rare.

  4. Answer

    Is one person you can call.

    The person who built it is the person who picks up.

Prices, in public.

Websites are a one-time price, half to start and half at launch. Care and IT plans are month to month. Custom work is $110/hr or a fixed written quote.

All prices in US dollars, exactly as billed.

The Handoff Promise

Everything lives in your accounts.

You own it all. If you ever stop working with me, you keep every account, every file, and every password.

Handoff promise4 promises
  1. Your accounts, not mine

    Domain, hosting, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, and code, all under your name.

  2. Written documentation

    What is set up, where, and why, in plain English.

  3. Password vault handoff

    Every login sits in a shared vault that you control.

  4. No lock-in

    Plans are month to month. Leave any time and take everything with you.

What if something happens to you?

You keep everything. Another IT person could pick it up from my notes on day one.

That is the point of doing it this way. Nothing about how your tech runs lives only in my head.

Who I work with, facts only.

Just who they are and what I built, without logos or made-up numbers.

About

Hi, I'm Cove.

I started running tech for the Steger businesses as a kid and never really stopped. Ten years later, it's my job.

I work alone on purpose. You talk to the person doing the work, and everything I build lives in your own accounts. No handoffs to a junior, no ticket queue.
