Who owns the code and the accounts?

You do. Domain, hosting, repository and analytics are in your name, I work inside your accounts and hand everything over at launch.

What if I need changes six months later?

You come back to me or give the project to any developer. It is an ordinary Next.js project, not a platform you cannot leave.

I have my own designer, does that work?

Yes, then I build from your mockups and the design stage leaves the quote. If you have no designer, I bring mine.

How complex can the logic be?

User accounts, payments, promo codes, admin panels, CRM and delivery integrations. The Essentóne shop with payments and delivery is built this way.

AI writes the code, so will it be a mess?

I read and edit the code instead of shipping it as is, with build checks, review and tests where they matter. Speed grows on routine work, decisions stay with a human.

A call and a short spec. It shows both the task and the way I work, and you risk nothing before the start.

Studio-level websites and services, built in weeks

I ran Method Zero, a studio that built digital products for Nike, Mercedes, Yandex, MTS, VTB and Cian. Now I build websites and services myself, with AI tools and a designer brought in per project. The code stays yours and the invoice is smaller than a studio's.

Two tracks

They differ in design depth and scope. A ten-minute call is usually enough to tell which one is yours.

Fast launch

A landing page, a promo page, an MVP or an internal tool for your team.

For when the idea needs real users rather than another month of discussion. Design builds on your identity or on clean typography, and the copy comes from your materials and gets edited together with you.

One to five pages or a single working scenario
Forms and lead notifications to Telegram or email
Analytics and goals from day one
Domain, hosting and launch handled by me

Website for a brand

A corporate site, an online shop or a service with user accounts.

Design starts from scratch and I bring in a designer I have worked with. What sits behind the pages matters as much: payments, accounts, integrations and an admin panel for content.

Design concept and its own component system
Catalogue, payments, delivery, user accounts
Admin panel so content changes need no developer

What every project includes

Real code, not a website builder

Next.js and ordinary hosting. Any developer can pick the project up: no locked editor, no monthly fee for the site simply existing.

All accounts are yours

Domain, hosting, repository and analytics are registered in your name from day one. I work inside your accounts.

Responsive and fast

Checked on phone, tablet and large screens. I watch image weight and loading metrics, because search results and leads depend on them.

SEO and AI search

Metadata, sitemap, structured data and readable URLs. Google, Yandex, ChatGPT and Perplexity all have to read the site correctly.

Analytics from day one

Metrica or Google Analytics with goals on leads, so a month later you can see which page works and which one merely exists.

A handover, not a dependency

At the end I show you how to change text and images yourself. Coming back to me for every comma is not the plan.

How the work goes

Call
You describe the task. I say what is actually needed here and what is not worth building, however tempting it looks.
Spec and quote
I write down the pages, features and order of work, and fix the price. From there we both read the same document.
Design direction
Before the build I show the visual direction, drawn by me or by a designer. Changes are cheap at this stage, so this is where we argue.
Build
I build in parts and publish to a staging address. You watch it grow instead of seeing it on delivery day.
Launch and handover
Domain, hosting, analytics and an editing guide. After launch I stay reachable and fix small things.

Why this costs less than a studio

A studio price carries managers, account leads and team utilisation. Here it is me plus a designer per project, with AI tools covering the routine parts of the code. The difference goes into price and timing rather than quality.

Критерий	Studio	Freelancer	Site builder	Me
Price	High	Medium	Low plus subscription	Below studio
Timing	Months	Depends on luck	Days	Weeks
Design	From scratch	Varies	Template	From scratch or on your identity

Complex logic	Yes	Varies	Plugins	Yes
After launch	Per contract	If they answer	On your own	Fixes and support

What is already built

Three examples of different scale: a product landing with prototypes, a multi-page bilingual site, and the portfolio of the studio I ran.

Personalised medicine service

Hearthe

The hearthe.io landing page and clickable app prototypes used in investor conversations. Eight languages, its own design system, prototypes running in a browser without building an app.

hearthe.io

This site

antonshakirov.com

Built the same way: Next.js, Russian and English versions, a knowledge base, a specialist directory with filters, product pages and an app landing in eight languages.

You are on it

Design and development studio

Method Zero

The studio I ran: websites and digital services for Nike, Mercedes, VTB, Yandex, MTS, Cian and RSHB. That is where the understanding of large projects and their price comes from.
