Services
From scoped build through launch and the months after.
Northline Studio focuses on engineering and iteration: shipping a solid site, then helping you improve it over time. Below is how we typically scope work; every proposal still starts with your brief, not a cookie-cutter deck.
How engagements usually bundle
These are starting shapes, not SKUs. We adjust depth, timeline, and team based on what you already have in house.
-
Hourly rate
Standard $10/hr for professional design, development, and consulting. We scope work with you first so billing stays clear.

01
Web development
Fast, maintainable front ends your team can own.
We build production sites with modern tooling, sensible content workflows, and deployment patterns that match your risk tolerance.
Best when
Marketing sites, launch moments, and content hubs, not heavy bespoke web apps (though we integrate with them).
What is Included
- Next.js or equivalent app architecture
- Headless CMS configuration and editor-friendly fields
- Forms, basic integrations (CRM, email, analytics hooks)
- Performance and accessibility QA on target devices
What you can expect
- Core Web Vitals you can be proud of in Lighthouse
- Editors who can publish without opening a ticket for every tweak
- Documentation for local dev, deploys, and common updates
-
02
Ongoing care
A partner for the awkward middle after go-live.
Retainers for iterative improvements: new sections, experiments, performance passes, and help when something breaks.
Best when
Teams without a full in-house web pod who still ship often.
What is Included
- Prioritized backlog and monthly or bi-weekly cadence
- Small features, landing pages, and CMS refinements
- Monitoring hooks for uptime and critical paths
- Office hours for your marketing or internal devs
What you can expect
- The site keeps pace with campaigns instead of freezing
- Technical debt gets trimmed in predictable slices
- You have a clear place to escalate when priorities change
Tools and stack
Most new builds land on Next.js with a headless CMS ( Sanity, Contentful, or similar ) when editors need flexible pages. We meet you where you are: if you have a preferred host, design system, or component library, we integrate rather than rip-and-replace for sport.
