Six ways to work with us. Price and timing are a guide; the exact quote follows the brief, usually within two days.

03 — Complexity

From one page to a platform

We take on any level of complexity: a landing page in a month, or a multi‑level application with roles, an API and real load. We pick the stack for the task, not for the portfolio.

01

One page

Landing page, promo site, product page. One promise, one action, analytics from day one.

  • Landing page
  • Promo
  • Product page
3–4 weeks
02

Company site

Corporate site, online store, media. Structure, CMS the team can run, SEO base, payments and delivery.

  • Corporate site
  • E‑commerce
  • Media
  • CMS
6–14 weeks
03

Service

Customer accounts, calculators, booking and payments, integrations with CRM, ERP and accounting systems.

  • Customer portal
  • Calculators
  • Payments
  • Integrations
from 12 weeks
04

Platform

A multi‑level application: roles and permissions, a public API, background queues, search, several teams on one codebase and load that has to hold.

  • Roles and permissions
  • Public API
  • Queues
  • High load
  • Microservices
from 6 months

Front‑end

  • HTML · CSS · JS
  • TypeScript
  • Vue · Nuxt
  • React · Next.js
  • Vite

Back‑end

  • PHP 8 · Laravel
  • Symfony
  • Node.js · NestJS
  • Go
  • REST · GraphQL

Data and queues

  • PostgreSQL
  • MySQL
  • Redis
  • RabbitMQ
  • Elasticsearch

Infrastructure

  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • CI/CD · GitLab
  • Nginx
  • Grafana · Sentry

This site runs on plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript — that is where the 0.9 s load comes from. For client projects we choose the stack the task needs, and the code and the accounts stay yours.

04 — Process

How the work runs

Five stages, each ending in something you can look at and approve. We need about two hours of your time per week.

01

1–2 days

Contact

We meet, fill in the brief, look at your business and your competitors. You get an estimate and a plan.

From youAn hour on a call and access to analytics

02

1–2 weeks

Recon

We research the audience, build the structure and prototypes of key pages, and write the copy.

From youAnswers to our questions, sign‑off on the structure

03

2–4 weeks

Design

A concept for the first screen, then every page in the design system. Mobile versions from the start.

From youOne meeting on the concept, one on the final

04

3–6 weeks

Build

Front‑end, CMS, integrations, device and speed testing. We show progress every week.

From youAccess to services, content

05

ongoing

Launch and growth

Migration, analytics, SEO basics, training for your team. Then hypotheses and tests.

From youA decision on what we do next

01

Deadlines in the contract

If we are late through our own fault, you get 5 % off for every week of delay.

02

One manager, one chat

Your contact knows everything about the project and answers within the hour during working hours.

03

Payment by stage

You pay for the result of a stage you can look at, not for promises.

05 — Principles

Why it works with us

≥ 90

PageSpeed on mobile

Speed is part of design. Every project we hand over clears 90 in Lighthouse on a phone.

0

Templates

Every site is designed from scratch for the task and the audience. You cannot stand out with a template.

14 days

To the first screen

Two weeks after kick‑off you see a working first screen, not a presentation.

Average growth in enquiries after a redesign, across our 2024–2026 cases with analytics in place.

What clients say

We thought freight is not something people order online. Two months later the site was our second biggest channel after the sales team.

In the morning sales get customers who have already paid. It used to be a list of cold requests.

07 — Studio

A small studio with thick case files

YAVKA is 14 people working out of Tallinn, with the team spread across Estonia, Ukraine and Germany. A strategist, three designers, five developers, an editor, an analyst, two managers and a founder who still codes first screens.

We take on up to four projects at a time so each one gets its own contact person and the team’s attention. We do not work with gambling, payday loans or anything we would be ashamed to put in a case file.

08 — FAQ

Questions before we meet

If your question is not here, ask it on Telegram. We answer within the hour during working hours.

A landing page from €4,500, a corporate site from €11,000, a store from €18,000. The exact quote follows the brief within two days, and it does not change unless the task does.

A landing page takes a month, a corporate site two to three, a store or a service three and up. Deadlines go into the contract.

Two hours a week for meetings and answers, access to analytics, and one person who makes decisions. Copy and structure are on us.

We pick the stack for the task. A simple site is plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript — that is where the speed comes from. A complex application is Laravel or Symfony on the back end, TypeScript with Vue or React on the front end, PostgreSQL, Redis and Docker around it. Content lives in a CMS chosen for the task. No lock‑in: the code and the accounts are yours.

A month of warranty support is included. After that, support and growth on a retainer or as one‑off tasks.

By stage: 30 % at kick‑off, then after design sign‑off and after launch. We work under a contract with an EU company, VAT reverse charge where applicable.

Yes. We build multi‑level applications: roles and permissions, a public API, background queues, integrations with CRM and ERP, and load that has to hold. A project of that size starts with a paid two‑week discovery — architecture, data model and a written plan — and only then goes into development.
