Track record
We have run businesses, not just served them.
Oliver Pitt has built and sold technology businesses, including Pocketgroup, acquired by WIN plc. He has run commercial operations in asset finance, energy trading, manufacturing and professional services.
You are not briefing an agency that has read about your problem. You are talking to someone who has had it.
The honest bit: Helves is new as a studio. The first builds are shipping now, and the clients who go first get founding-client pricing in exchange for letting us tell the story. Client results appear here when they are signed off. Not before.
Fixed
Every project is fixed scope and fixed price
What we do
Strategy first. Technology second.
We don't start with a technology stack. We start with the business. Then we build the simplest thing that makes a meaningful difference.
Where does it hurt
Two problems. Pick yours.
Almost every business we talk to has one of these, not both. The answer is different for each, so tell us which one you are and we will show you only the relevant half.
This is you if:
- Your site was built three years ago and nobody has touched it since
- You do not know how many enquiries it produced last month
- You come up for your own company name and nothing else
- Someone asked ChatGPT about your sector and you were not in the answer
- Your Google Business Profile has not been updated since it was created
- The site loads slowly on a phone, which is where most people see it
What we build
Get found. Technical foundations that work: speed, structure, schema, sitemap, Google Business Profile. The unglamorous layer that decides whether you appear at all.
Get quoted by AI. More buyers ask an AI before they ask Google. We build the entity data and quotable content that make you a source rather than a skipped result.
Get chosen. A site that says why you, in the first eleven seconds, and asks for the enquiry.
Keep going. Search is not a project. It is a monthly rhythm of fixes, content and reporting against a frozen baseline.
Not sure yet? Get a free five-minute audit of your current site. We will tell you what is costing you enquiries. No call, no sequence.
This is you if:
- A quote takes three days, and only one person can price it properly
- The same information gets typed into three different systems
- Something important lives in a spreadsheet six people edit
- A key person is leaving and the process is in their head
- You cannot take on more work without hiring, and hiring is the whole margin
- A client asked for an audit trail and you had to go and build one
What we build
Find where it leaks. Two weeks inside the process with the people who actually run it, and a number for what the friction costs you.
Build the one thing that fixes it. Not a roadmap. One tool, fixed scope, fixed price, a date in the contract.
Make it get used. Adoption is in the scope and never an upsell. A tool nobody opens is a cost with a nice interface.
Keep improving it. Every live tool generates a list of improvements within a fortnight of launch.
Not sure which you are? Take two minutes.
Four questions. We will tell you what we would do first, what it costs and whether it is worth doing at all. You will see the answer before we ask for anything.
How an engagement works
Understand. Decide. Build. Improve.
01
Understand
Get under the skin of the business.
02
Decide
Find the opportunities worth pursuing.
03
Build
Create the product, system or experience.
04
Improve
Measure it. Learn. Make it better.
Tell us what is slowing you down.
Fifteen minutes on a call. We will tell you what we would build first, and whether it is worth building at all. Sometimes the honest answer is to buy something off the shelf. We will say so.
