Headless WordPress

WordPress as a backend, Next.js or Astro as a frontend. Editors keep their familiar CMS; readers get sub-second page loads and modern interactivity.

Built by senior engineers.

No outsourcing, no juniors learning on your project. Every line of code ships from a small team that has been building WordPress at scale for over a decade.

01

Performance First

Core Web Vitals targeted from day one. Fast LCP, low CLS, excellent INP. We tune hosting, caching, and assets carefully.

02

Full-Text Search

Algolia, Meilisearch, and ElasticPress integrations. Faceted filters, blazing-fast indexing, search across body text and metadata.

03

WCAG 2.2 Accessibility

Compliant by design, not retrofitted. Semantic markup, screen-reader tested, keyboard-friendly. Critical for institutions.

04

Custom CMS Workflows

Editorial dashboards designed around your team's actual process. Bulk uploads, draft states, approvals, role permissions.

API & Integrations

HubSpot, Salesforce, Stripe, Mailchimp, custom REST APIs. We connect WordPress to whatever your business already runs.

Hosting & DevOps

WP Engine, Kinsta, Pantheon, WordPress VIP. We provision, configure, and tune managed hosting for your traffic and budget.
