Now taking on new projects.

GitFoundry · A studio for small businesses and founders

You pay once.
You own it.

A fixed fee for a website built by hand. At launch the code, the domain and the repository are transferred to you for good. No monthly fee to stay online.

A monthly Partnership for changes after launch is planned. It is not yet available to order.


Why GitFoundry

  • GitFoundry designs and builds high-value web presences for startup founders who lack technical skills.
  • Every website is written from scratch in plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with no WordPress, no Squarespace, and no platform dependency.
  • Founders own the source code and domain outright and can move to any host at any time, taking everything with them.
  • Not sure a website is the right first step? A website instead of a Facebook page sets out when a page is enough, and when it is not.
  • A Launch page is delivered in about one week; a full Presence site in about two weeks.
  • A monthly Partnership for changes after launch is planned but not yet available to order. Register your interest and we will tell you when it opens.

Design
Built around your story, not a template. We start with what you do, who it's for and why it matters. Your site looks like your business, not like everyone else's.
Engineering
Handwritten. Nothing hiding in the code. No WordPress, no Wix, no page builders. Clean HTML, CSS and JavaScript: fast anywhere, readable by anyone, owned by you. The honest write-ups: GitFoundry vs WordPress, GitFoundry vs Wix and GitFoundry vs Squarespace. Not sure which route fits? Who we build for is the short answer.
Deployment
Hosting that outlasts any platform. Your site lives on GitHub Pages, trusted by millions of engineers and running reliably since 2008. It stays up whether or not you pay anyone.
Ownership
Every file is yours. At handover you get the complete source code. Host it anywhere, hand it to a developer, or change it yourself. No licence, no lock-in, no dependence on us.

You run the business.
We build the website.

You know your trade, your customers and your numbers. The website is the first thing they check. We take that off your plate, so you meet the world at your best.


One founder's story.

Startup · Launched 2026

Renjith Reghu was launching Will4Life with a clear vision and no way to build it. Two weeks later he had a web presence he owns outright: fast, accessible, and unmistakably his. The Will4Life case study sets out the whole build, from first brief to handover.


From brief to live
in under two weeks.

One person designs it, builds it and hands it over. You always know who you're talking to. Nobody passes you along.

Brief

Tell us about the company and what you need. A short form, not a questionnaire. We read every word.

Design & build

A working preview, typically within five days. You see it before a penny more changes hands.

Revisions

After your first preview, give us one clear direction and we make one fresh pass. Further changes can be discussed separately, with no surprises.

Handover

Your site goes live, your domain connects, and the complete source code is yours from that moment. A monthly Partnership for ongoing changes is planned but not yet available to order.


We stay with you
after launch.

A business doesn't stand still, and neither should its website. The Partnership is a planned monthly service for changes after launch. It is not yet available to order; register your interest and we will tell you when it opens.

Announcements
A funding round, a launch, a press mention. A new page or update within 48 hours, written and built to the same standard as the rest of the site.
Evolution
Pivots happen. The site keeps up. When the story changes, the presence changes with it: new positioning, new pages, no drama.
Minding
The standard you launched with, kept. Performance, accessibility, and search health are watched, so the site stays as sharp as the day it went live.
Freedom
Keep everything. The code, the domain, the lot. Nothing about your site depends on a subscription.

And the numbers, last.

We'd rather you judge the work first. Every figure is VAT-free, comes with a fixed quote within 48 hours, and buys full ownership from day one.

Launch
One page that earns your idea its first believers: product story, waitlist, credibility.
