A website that shows up where your customers actually ask
Customers now ask ChatGPT and Google's AI, not just Google search. FirstCoast.ai builds fast, modern sites and web apps structured so both can read, understand, and cite you, with an embedded chat agent capturing leads around the clock.
The Snapshot is a real analysis of your current site: AI visibility, search, speed. Delivered within one business day.
Design & development
New sites and web apps built on a modern stack (Next.js, TypeScript, React), designed for your business instead of poured into a template.
- New AI-ready websites and web applications
- Legacy modernization: current design, mobile optimization, security, and AI capability added to what you already have
- Campaign landing pages that convert and feed your CRM and email tools
- E-commerce with secure checkout and backend product, inventory, and order management
A part-time Web Developer, without the hire
Once a site or app is live, the work doesn't stop: a new page, a small feature, a stubborn bug, a chat agent that needs tuning. Small changes never need a new project, and net-new builds stay fixed-price, scoped from the Discovery Audit.
The Part-time Professional is one senior expert who covers every role on the right from a single pool of hours. Where those hours go changes month to month, depending on where they're needed most, and you buy them one of two ways: a Monthly Retainer for steady work, or Flexible Hours with no commitment.
How the hours flex
- The launch month: landing page tweaks, analytics wiring, and a round of speed fixes once real traffic arrives
- The steady state: a new page, a content refresh, and chat agent tuning in the same month
- The growth push: a booking feature, a CRM integration fix, and a campaign page ahead of the season
Every example is illustrative: your mix is scoped to your month and quoted before anything starts.
A few of the roles your Part-time Professional can cover
These are just some of the job duties your Part-time Professional can take on here — the exact mix flexes to whatever your business needs most that month.
Web Developer
New pages, features, and fixes on the modern stack your site is built on.
AI Developer
Chat agent tuning, new agent skills, and smarter lead capture on your site.
UI/UX Designer
Screens and flows designed so customers find what they came for.
Graphic Designer
Logos, imagery, and visuals that keep your brand consistent everywhere.
Solutions Architect
Integration calls that keep the stack simple as the site grows.
Database Administrator
Schema changes, query tuning, and backups kept healthy as data grows.
Built to be readable by every engine
Search is splitting between Google results and AI answers, and most sites are only built for one of them. Every FirstCoast.ai build is structured so search and answer engines can access, understand, and cite its core content: real markup, real page speed, and an answer stated in plain language near the top of the page, not a set of tricks layered on after the site is built.
- AI Visibility foundations: content and markup structured so AI engines like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity can read, quote, and cite you accurately
- Technical SEO: fast pages, clean structure, and the markup Google rewards
- Embedded AI chat agent trained on your business, capturing and qualifying leads 24/7
Want to be the answer, not just readable?
The build gets you the foundations. The full AI Visibility service adds ongoing measurement, authority content, and earned coverage in the publications engines cite, delivered with our partner Mulberry Marketing Communications.
Explore AI Visibility
Find out how your current site performs
Tell our assistant your web address and we'll run a real analysis: how you show up in AI answers, search fundamentals, page speed, and a few technical checks. You get a summary by email, usually within one business day, and a short call walks through the full findings.
It's the quick preview of the full Discovery Audit, and step one of the AI Visibility service.
Already have a site that just needs to stay fast, patched, and online?
That's Hosting & SupportQuestions we get asked
Do you build on WordPress, Squarespace, or a similar platform?
No. Every FirstCoast.ai site is custom-built on a modern stack: Next.js, TypeScript, and React, the same tools serious engineering teams use, not a page builder with a monthly plugin bill attached. That means faster load times, real control over the code, and no platform lock-in if you ever want to move the site elsewhere. If you already have a WordPress or Squarespace site, we can still modernize it in place rather than starting over.
Can you improve my existing site instead of a full rebuild?
Yes. Legacy modernization is one of the services we build: current design, mobile optimization, security fixes, and AI capability layered onto what you already have, not a rebuild from a blank page. We start with the free Site Snapshot to see exactly what your current site is doing well and where it is costing you, then scope the modernization from there. Some sites need a full rebuild and some just need the right fixes, and the Snapshot is what tells you which one you actually have.
How long does a new site take to build?
Often a few weeks for a working prototype, depending on how much the site needs to do. A campaign landing page or a straightforward business site moves fastest. E-commerce with inventory and order management, or a legacy modernization touching a lot of existing code, takes longer. Every project is milestone-based, so you review and approve the work at each stage rather than waiting until the end to see anything.
Do I own the site once it's built?
Yes, completely. The code, the content, and the accounts are yours on final payment, in writing, before we start. If you ever want to move hosting elsewhere or bring development in-house, nothing about how the site is built locks you into staying with us.
What does the free Site Snapshot actually check?
A real analysis of your current site, not a generic scorecard: how you show up in AI answers like ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews, search fundamentals, page speed, and a handful of technical checks that affect whether people can even find you. You get a summary by email, usually within one business day, and a short call walks through the full findings. There is no sales pitch built into it. It is the same free preview whether you end up building with us or not.
Who hosts the site once it is live?
Either of us, whichever you prefer. We can host and manage it under a Hosting & Support plan, which keeps it monitored, patched, and backed up without you thinking about it, or you can host it yourself or with your current provider and we hand off a clean deployment. Nothing about the build changes based on who ends up hosting it.
