What you actually get
Most studios start at the blank lot — three months and forty grand just to pour foundation, run wiring, frame walls. The work any client would need any studio to do.
We’ve already built the house. Walls framed, electrical in, admin panel wired, Stripe ready, every page in place. You walk in and the only decisions left are the ones that actually matter — what your hospitality feels like, what story your photos tell, what your front door says.

WHAT WE'RE NOT
Three categories solve "I need a website." The middle one is where most people end up paying for half of one.
If you want a $16/mo template, go with Squarespace — they're great at it. If you want generated code and a developer, Lovable is excellent. If you want someone to hand you a finished site they keep running — that's us.
YOU DON'T MANAGE YOUR SITE
When you sign up, you get a private workspace with Sherwin. Message us, drop in a photo, leave a note — we ship the edit. No prompts to write. No tickets to file. No dashboards to learn.
A real conversation with Sherwin in your portal. Same-day replies during business hours. Most edits ship within a few hours.
Phone-camera photo of your daily special, a paragraph about a new service, a brand reference you saw on Instagram — drop it in your workspace, we put it on the site.
Watch the change land on your real site. No staging links to bookmark. No "we'll deploy next Tuesday." If we said it, you can refresh and see it.
WHAT YOU PAY
You know what you pay before you fill out a form. Two flat tiers cover most projects; complex builds get scoped on the call.

HOW IT WORKS
Most builds ship in about a week. Complex scope takes longer. We give you a real timeline after we see the intake.
DIFFERENTIATORS
LOADING PORTFOLIO...
EVERY CLIENT GETS A PORTAL
Every BE1st Studio client gets a private workspace with three connected surfaces: the agent studio where we build, the client theater where you review, and a live editing terminal that turns your feedback into live changes. No "I'll get back to you." No Dropbox folders. One link, updated in real time.
Generous portions. Warm wood. Reservations right here — on whatever device you've got in your hand.
Reserve a table →CLIENT VOICES
We'll drop in real client quotes here the moment the first cohort ships their sites. If you'd like to be one of them, join the waitlist.
Placeholder quote from our beta tester cohort. Testimonials populate automatically from the client-feedback form in each theater delivery.
Third slot reserved. Real quote — real face, real results — coming soon.
FAQ
If something here doesn't answer it, message Sherwin directly.
No. The product is agent-mediated, not self-serve. You message Sherwin in your private workspace, drop in photos or notes, and the edits get shipped for you. There's nothing to install, no editor to learn, no prompts to write.
Managed ($399 + $99/mo): your site lives at yourname.be1st.io — a subdomain we own and run. Same site, same admin, same support; no DNS to manage.
Custom Domain ($399 + $149/mo): exactly the same site on yourname.com (your own domain). We handle DNS, SSL, and email forwarding. Pick this if you already own the domain or want one for the brand.
Yes — every site ships with a full admin panel for menu items, hours, photos, bookings, orders, and so on. You're welcome to use it. Most clients don't — they just message Sherwin and we update everything for them.
Drop a note or photo in your workspace and tag it "ship now." Sherwin pushes it the same day during business hours. For typo-level edits, that's faster than logging in anywhere.
Your domain is yours. We manage DNS as part of the service; if you ever want it pointed elsewhere, we hand off the records.
The build itself lives on BE1st infrastructure. Think of the monthly like Squarespace or Shopify — you're renting a managed, agent-run site, not buying a deliverable. Stop the monthly and the site goes offline; keep paying and it stays running, edited, and updated for you.
If you ever want a clean hand-off (codebase + documentation + transition help so you can run it yourself or with another team), it's a one-time hand-off fee of $1,000–$1,500 depending on scope. Most clients never need it; it's there if you do.
Hosting, SSL, security patches, performance monitoring, and ongoing edits are all included in the monthly. Your workspace stays open — that's the relationship, not just the build.
Hit the Custom Build tier in pricing or email Sherwin directly. Multi-location, franchise structures, unusual integrations, migrations from existing infrastructure — all doable; we just scope and quote it per project so you know exactly what's involved.
START THE CONVERSATION
Three quick screens. Depending on current demand, we build a real preview site from your inputs and drop it into your private client portal — typically within 48 hours, longer if we’re backed up. You review it, comment on anything you want changed, then decide if you want to keep going. No deposit. No commitment.
