About Us

Built Different, on Purpose

We use modern tools and AI to deliver agency-quality websites at a fraction of the cost — because small businesses deserve better than a cookie-cutter template.

The AI-Augmented Approach

Most web agencies charge $5,000+ to build a website because they have offices, account managers, project coordinators, and overhead that gets passed along to you. DIY platforms cost less, but they dump the work in your lap and the results usually show it.

Taylor Made Software is a different model. One experienced developer, armed with modern AI tools, can deliver what used to take an entire team. AI handles the tedious parts — generating boilerplate code, optimizing images, drafting initial content — so the human expertise goes where it matters most: design decisions, performance tuning, understanding your business, and getting the details right.

This isn't "we replaced humans with AI." It's the opposite. AI frees up the human to spend more time on the things that actually make your website great. The result is agency-quality work at prices a local business can actually afford.

How We're Different

Three principles that guide everything we build.

Ownership

Your domain is registered in your name. Your content belongs to you. Your site is built on open-source technology. If you ever leave, you take everything with you. No lock-in, no hostage situations.

Transparency

Our pricing is on the website. No "request a quote" games, no surprise invoices, no fine-print fees. We use open-source tools, and we'll explain every decision we make in plain English.

Performance

Every site we build scores 95+ on Google Lighthouse and loads in under 1.5 seconds. Fast sites rank higher on Google and convert more visitors into customers. We don't compromise on speed.

Clayton, NC

Your Neighbor, Not a Corporation

Taylor Made Software is based right here in Clayton, North Carolina. We serve small businesses across the Triangle — Raleigh, Durham, Smithfield, Garner, and everywhere in between.

When you work with us, you're not filing a support ticket with a faceless company. You're texting or emailing a real person who lives in your community and actually cares whether your business succeeds.

We shop at the same stores, eat at the same restaurants, and go to the same events. That's not a marketing line — it's why we do this. Local businesses are the backbone of Clayton, and too many of them are invisible online because web agencies priced them out.

Globally Distributed

We deploy on Cloudflare's global network — the same infrastructure behind 20% of the internet. Your site loads fast for visitors whether they're in Clayton or California.

Free Hosting, Forever

Modern architecture means your site costs virtually nothing to host. We don't mark up hosting because there's nothing to mark up. Cloudflare's generous free tier covers small business sites completely.
