Process

How the work runs.

Every project, from a small marketing site to a multi-platform app build, runs through six phases. Specifics vary, the rhythm and checkpoints stay consistent.

From first conversation to launch.

A repeatable process is what lets Anytech scope tightly, price up front, and ship without surprising you partway through.

Step 01

Discovery and proposal

A 30 to 60 minute discovery call, a short questionnaire, then a written scope document and a proposal. Fixed price for defined scope, hourly for retainers and uncertain work.

Step 02

Kickoff and access collection

Domain, hosting, analytics, content management, third-party services. Everything needed gets collected on day one so nothing's chased mid-project.

Step 03

Design and planning

Sitemap, key page mockups, technical architecture, content plan, redirect map for redesigns. Written sign-off before any production code gets written.

Step 04

Build and integration

Real codebase in version control, staging environment, deployment pipeline, error tracking. Templates, content management, forms, payment gateways, point-of-sale. Whatever the scope calls for.

Step 05

Pre-launch quality and hardening

Cross-browser, mobile, accessibility audit, performance audit, security checklist. Content review, search metadata, redirects from old URLs, search console verification.

Step 06

Launch and handover

DNS cutover at off-peak. Training session for your content team. Documentation, monitoring set up, hypercare period for two weeks before stepping back to retainer cadence.

What it adds up to in practice.

An independent shop moves at a different pace to a 50-person agency. Less throughput, more attention. The numbers reflect that.

Anytech is intentionally small. The shop you talk to in discovery is the shop that builds it, ships it, and answers your support email two years later.

Things people often ask.

Things people often ask before signing on. If you have a different question, just ask. Anytech doesn't do scripted sales calls.

A standard marketing site lands somewhere between four and eight weeks. A custom application or e-commerce build with integrations typically runs eight to 16 weeks. Mobile apps depend heavily on scope and store review timing, usually three to five months end to end.

Timeline depends as much on your responsiveness as Anytech's. Content, approvals and access are the most common things that drag a project sideways.

Both. Anytech defaults to fixed-price for scoped project work. It aligns incentives properly and keeps the conversation focused on outcomes instead of hours. Hourly applies to retainers, ad-hoc support, and engagements where the scope is genuinely unknown at the start.

The rate is $140 CAD per hour + GST. Out-of-hours emergency work is billed at minimum 2x.

Anytech owns the tech. You own the content. You get a content management system your team can actually use, plus a recorded training session and a written guide. The fastest turnaround for any content change is your team handling it directly. Otherwise it waits on availability.

If you want Anytech doing content entry, that's billable at the standard rate, in batched one-hour blocks, with 48-hour turnaround. Most clients quickly switch to managing it themselves.

Yes. Anytech does a lot of these. The starting point is a paid technical audit. The codebase, hosting, platform version, plugins, integrations and known issues all get reviewed, then you get a written report and recommendations. From there it might be a small rescue retainer, a partial rebuild, or a full migration to something more sustainable.

If your existing setup is sound, you'll be told so. Anytech doesn't pretend something is bad to win the rebuild.

Most clients move onto a small monthly retainer covering hosting, monitoring, security patches and a pool of maintenance hours. Out-of-scope work or new features are quoted separately, either fixed-price or hourly depending on scope clarity.

You're not locked in. The retainer is month-to-month and you can step away with reasonable notice if your needs change.
