The problem

The studio pitches production-ready MVPs in 30 days to founders comparing it against agencies charging many times more. That claim needs visible proof, and the team needed to publish it without a developer in the loop.

Our approach

Next.js over a Directus CMS, so every content surface is editable. The page is ordered as an argument: promise, proof, objections, one call to action.

Challenges & solutions

Where it got hard.

Challenge

Marketing copy, case studies and articles needed to change frequently without a developer in the loop.

Solution

Modelled every content surface in Directus and rendered it through shared templates, so publishing is a CMS action rather than a deploy.

Challenge

Case-study imagery is heavy and would otherwise dominate page weight on a marketing site where first impression speed matters.

Solution

Served all media through Directus with WebP transforms applied per request, so pages ship modern formats without a manual export step.

Results
