Why Stackzeno

What Los Angeles founders need from a digital partner

Craft

Motion that does not cost you speed

LA brands are judged on how the work feels. Animation is built into the page properly, with GPU-friendly transforms and reduced-motion handling, so the site moves without dropping frames on a mid-range phone.

Ownership

No platform lock-in

You get the repo, the design system, and full codebase ownership at handoff. Nothing sits behind a subscription, and nothing breaks the day you stop working with us.

Speed

Three to six weeks to launch

Timelines are fixed at the brief. We keep a small number of active projects, so your build is not queued behind six others waiting for the same designer.

Market brief

What building for Los Angeles actually involves

California has the most demanding consumer privacy regime in the United States and a separate accessibility statute with real financial teeth. Both apply to a lot of sites that assume they are exempt.

Privacy

CCPA and CPRA have thresholds worth checking

California's privacy rules bite above defined thresholds, including annual revenue over twenty-five million dollars or personal information on a hundred thousand or more consumers or households. If you are over one, the site needs opt-out mechanics, a rights request flow and honest disclosure of what the tracking scripts do.

Accessibility

The Unruh Act attaches statutory damages

California pairs federal ADA exposure with a state statute that carries minimum statutory damages per violation. That combination is why California accessibility claims are filed in volume, and why WCAG conformance is not a nice-to-have for a site serving this market.

Media

Entertainment buyers judge on craft

This is a market where the work is the pitch. Motion, typography and image handling carry more weight than they do in most B2B contexts, and a site that looks templated will lose the brief before anyone reads the copy.

Testimonials

What founders say

“We expected a marketing site. We got a conversion engine. Spend went up, CPL went down - that almost never happens at the same time.”

TICo-founderTimegate

“The site set the tone for the brand. People show up to the app already expecting it to feel like this.”

Frequently asked

Common questions from Los Angeles founders

Yes. We work async-first with LA founders and run review cycles over video call, Loom, or Slack - whichever suits your workflow. We operate across PST, EST, and Gulf time without friction.

Most marketing sites for LA teams ship in three to five weeks from brief sign-off. We commit to a launch date in writing during the briefing phase and we hit it. Larger product launches typically run six to twelve weeks.

Our work is benchmarked against the best coming out of Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York. Every site is custom-coded in Next.js - not a template - with real Lighthouse scores, real motion, and a design system your team can scale.

Landing pages start at $1,000. Websites start at $4,000 for a focused marketing site, and full builds with a CMS, blog, and motion start at $9,000. Web apps and iOS/Android builds are scoped from there. AI automation starts at $3,000; a custom AI agent starts at $6,000 plus $400-$1,200 a month to run. SEO retainers are $1,000-$4,000 a month and social is $1,500-$5,000, both with a three-month minimum. Everything is invoiced in USD and itemised in a fixed-cost proposal after the briefing call.
