Agency-quality websites and apps for US businesses, without the agency price.
A senior team that has shipped websites since 2011, with fixed prices in US dollars and calls planned in your time zone.
The Dev Studio builds websites, Shopify stores and mobile apps for businesses across the United States, from New York, Los Angeles and Chicago to Houston, Dallas, Miami, Atlanta, Boston, Seattle and Austin. We also run SEO and paid ads, so the same team that builds your site is responsible for the leads it brings.
US buyers compare you with the best site they used that week. We build fast, accessible pages, write clear offers and set up tracking for calls, forms and purchases, so you know what your marketing returns.

Doing business online in the US
- Sales tax
- There is no national VAT. Sales tax is set by each state and by many cities, and online stores usually need to collect it where they have nexus. Shopify and Stripe Tax can calculate it at checkout.
- Privacy and marketing rules
- There is no single federal privacy law. California's CCPA/CPRA and newer state laws (for example in Virginia, Colorado and Texas) give consumers rights over their data, so a clear privacy policy and opt-out links matter.
- Online payments
- Cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay, PayPal, Shop Pay, buy-now-pay-later with Affirm, Klarna or Afterpay, and ACH bank payments for larger invoices.
- What customers expect to see
- Accessibility matters: businesses are regularly sued under the ADA over websites people with disabilities cannot use, so we build to WCAG 2.1 AA. Customers also look for reviews, clear shipping and returns, and a real phone number.
