Studio
Five people, one studio, no account layer.
We think beautiful — which in practice means we think a store should be a pleasure to run, not only to look at. Most of what we get hired for is the second half of that.
We started in Brussels in 2009 and still work from there, with people in Paris, Lisboa and Roma. Small enough that you know everyone on your project; long enough in this to have made most of the mistakes already, on our own time rather than yours.

How we work
We would rather say no
If we are not the right people for a project, saying so on the first call costs you thirty minutes. Saying so in month three costs you a quarter.
You own everything
The store, the code, the accounts, the data. No proprietary lock-in and no hostage situations. If you want to leave, we will help you leave cleanly.
Build it once
If the same gap turns up on the third project, we build the thing that closes it. That is where Bee2Bee, Jenee and Jessee came from — client problems we refused to solve by hand a fourth time.
Small numbers you can trust
We would rather report a modest figure you can act on than a flattering one you cannot. Attribution is hard; pretending otherwise helps nobody.
What came out of it
Bee2Bee
A B2B platform that integrates with an existing Shopify store without a Shopify Plus subscription. Manage B2C and B2B inventory together, set pricing policies per customer, correct orders, and issue B2B invoices automatically. bee2bee-app.io →
Jenee
Talent management and booking for model agencies. Boards, availability, options and confirmations in one place, with the client-facing side kept as personal as a phone call. jenee.io →
Jessee
The systems studio side of the house. Twelve working systems across nine operating environments, each one published with what it does, what it is allowed to do, and how you would check it. jessee.eu →
How a project runs
Six steps. No surprises in the middle.
01
First call
Working out whether this is a fit
Thirty minutes. You tell us what is not working and what you are trying to reach. We tell you honestly whether we are the right people. Sometimes the answer is no, and we would rather find that out now than after a proposal.
02
Look at the real thing
Your store, your numbers, your stock
We go through the store as it stands — the theme, the apps, the analytics, the way orders actually reach your warehouse. Most of the important problems are visible here, and most of them are not the one you called about.
03
Scope and price
One document, one number
You get a written scope: what we will do, what we will not, what it costs, and roughly how long. Fixed where we can fix it. If something is genuinely unknowable up front, we say that instead of padding the estimate.
04
Build
Visible while it happens
You get a staging store you can open whenever you like, and a person you can message. We would rather you tell us something is wrong in week two than approve it politely in week six.
05
Go live
The careful bit
Redirects mapped, analytics checked, payments and taxes tested with real transactions. We pick a quiet window and we are on hand for it. Launch day should be boring.
06
After
Whatever you actually need
Some clients want a monthly retainer. Some want us gone and reachable. Both are fine. What we will not do is make you dependent on us to change your own opening hours.
Tell us what you're building.
A first call is thirty minutes and costs nothing. Bring the thing that is annoying you most — that is usually the fastest way in.
