What you get

Built for operators, not demos

Fits how you sell

IA and templates follow your real pitch — not a generic theme demo with your logo dropped in.

Components, not chaos

Reusable UI pieces with linted styles so future pages stay fast to ship and cheap to maintain.

Measured launches

Analytics and server logging wired before go-live so you can see errors and conversions honestly.

Let's scope your project in one call

Bring your timeline, stack, and stakeholders. We'll tell you honestly if we're the right fit and what a first milestone could look like.

Capabilities

What we actually ship

Written acceptance criteria, visible milestones, and owners named on day one.

01

Marketing & corporate sites

Editor-friendly pages, crisp performance budgets, and forms that feed the CRM you already pay for.

Key deliverables

  • Sensible content model (CMS or MDX)
  • On-page SEO structure and sitemap hygiene
  • 508 / WCAG-oriented markup by default
  • Staging domain and rollback-friendly deploys

02

E-commerce

Checkout flows with clear tax/shipping assumptions, fraud basics, and reporting that finance can read.

Key deliverables

  • Shopify headless or custom carts when justified
  • Payment provider integration (Stripe, etc.)
  • Order webhooks and inventory edge cases documented
  • Search and filter UX that does not tank LCP

03

Custom web applications

Authenticated tools for staff or members: roles, audit trails, and exports that survive an actual audit.

Key deliverables

  • Postgres-first data modeling
  • REST or typed RPC boundaries
  • SSO / SAML when IT requires it
  • Background jobs for slow operations

Outcomes

Proof in the work

Directional benchmarks from real engagements — details on a call under NDA when needed.

~8–12 wk
Typical marketing build

Assumes content and approvals keep pace; larger product work is quoted separately after discovery.

LCP focus
Performance budget

We set numeric targets early (mobile included) instead of chasing scores after launch.

Handoff pack
Runbooks included

Env vars, cron jobs, and on-call expectations documented — not only in someone’s head.

Why Thorium

The Thoriumdifference

Principals stay on the thread. Scope, owners, and weekly visibility are written down — so you are not guessing what shipped.

Security basics bundled

Secrets in vaults, dependency updates, and OWASP-minded reviews on auth and file upload paths.

Federal-adjacent experience

Comfortable with Section 508 narratives, privacy statements, and procurement-friendly change logs.

Readable codebase

Future hires or another agency should be able to grep the repo and understand boundaries.

Design + build continuity

When we also design, Figma maps cleanly to components — fewer “pixel perfect” disputes.

How it works

Our provenprocess

Weekly checkpoints, shared backlog, and change requests in writing.

  1. Phase 1 · Week 1–2

    Discovery

    Sitemap, integrations, roles, and risks captured in a short written spec you approve.

  2. Phase 2 · Design

    UX / UI

    Key templates in Figma, then frozen for build — changes flow through tickets, not side chats.

  3. Phase 3 · Build

    Implementation

    Feature branches, previews, automated checks, and weekly demos with open issue lists.

  4. Phase 4 · Launch

    Cutover

    DNS checklist, monitoring, and a 30-day hypercare window defined in the SOW.

FAQ

Common questions

Do you take over existing Next.js repos?

Yes, after a short technical review (dependencies, deploy path, data model). We quote remediation separately from new feature work.

Who owns the code?

You do, under the engagement payment terms. Repos live in your org; we request contributor access only for the contract term.

How do you price?

Fixed fee for a defined milestone set, or time-and-materials with a cap when research is still open. Estimates follow discovery, not a cold call.

Can you host for us?

We usually deploy to Vercel or AWS accounts you control. We can operate them under retainer if you prefer hands-off.

What about WordPress?

We support headless WordPress or migration off it when the editing experience no longer matches the product roadmap.
