Questions? Honest answers.
The most common questions about working together, process, pricing, tech and AI — short and without marketing speak. Your question not here? Just message me.
Working together & services
Are you an agency or do you work solo?
You always have me as your direct contact — no agency overhead, no anonymous ticket system. For specialist disciplines like photography and video I work with a trusted network of professionals, and for development and AI with my team. So you get the reliability of a single point of contact and the firepower of a team.
What services do you offer?
I build digital business systems: custom websites and client portals, internal tools and dashboards, integrations between existing systems, automation of recurring workflows plus ongoing maintenance and support. On top of that UI/UX design, online shops and AI consulting. Photo, video and 3D come as a complement via my network.
Who do you work for?
Established companies across the DACH region whose workflows have not kept up with their own growth: property managers, travel agencies, medical practices, trades and service businesses, agencies. Usually between ten and a hundred employees — big enough for manual work to really hurt, small enough for a solution without a months-long enterprise IT project.
Do you only work in Vienna?
I am based in Vienna, but I work location-independently for clients across Austria, Germany, Switzerland and beyond. In-person meetings in Vienna are always possible; the rest runs smoothly online.
Process, pricing & support
What does a website cost?
It depends on scope — a focused website is something else than a booking platform with custom software. I work with clear, transparent quotes and no hidden costs: tell me what you have in mind and you get an honest assessment and a fixed-price range.
How long does a project take?
A classic website is often live within a few weeks; larger platforms take correspondingly longer. With agentic coding I deliver a lot noticeably faster than usual — without cutting corners on quality. You get a concrete timeline with the quote.
How does the collaboration work?
In four steps: 1) discovery & strategy, 2) concept & design, 3) build, 4) launch & care. You are involved in every step and see early where things are heading — no flying blind.
Do you also offer maintenance and ongoing support?
Yes. On request I take care of hosting, updates, backups and ongoing development — for example via a maintenance contract. Existing clients find quotes, invoices, training materials and contracts bundled in their personal client area.
Tech, SEO & AI
How do you build websites — page builder or code?
Depending on the project, hand-coded (e.g. with Astro or React) or on proven systems like WordPress, Webflow or Shopify. What matters is what is most maintainable, fast and SEO-strong for you — not my favourite tool.
Is SEO included?
Clean technical SEO — fast load times, clear structure, meta data and a sitemap — is standard with me, not an add-on. That is how you get found by Google and, increasingly, by AI search engines.
What is “agentic coding” and do you work with AI?
Agentic coding is the systematic orchestration of several specialised AI systems to build real, production-ready software — under full human control over architecture, quality and security. That is deliberately different from “vibe coding” (tools like Lovable or Base44): great for weekend projects, quick prototypes and first concept drafts, but not production-ready. My team and I work with the whole spectrum — Claude, OpenAI, Google Gemini, Codex, Higgsfield and more — and I am certified in the “Agentic Coding Masterclass”. The right AI stack for every use case.
Why an AI freelancer instead of a big AI agency?
With me you talk directly to the person who also builds the AI solution — no sales layer, no project-manager layer, no markup for the agency apparatus. As an AI freelancer in Vienna I am fast, flexible and honest: if AI is not the right path for a use case, I say so. And thanks to agentic coding I build myself what larger providers only outsource at a premium.
Which processes can I have automated with AI?
Almost anything repetitive and rule-based: preparing quotes and emails, capturing receipts and invoices, syncing data between systems, pre-sorting enquiries, generating reports or having a chatbot answer your standard questions. We look at your day-to-day together and automate first where the most time is lost.
Can I have a custom AI solution built for me?
Yes — that is exactly my focus. Instead of squeezing you into an off-the-shelf tool, I build an AI solution that fits your process: an AI agent, a tailored assistant or an AI feature right inside your software or website. So you get AI that speaks your language and plugs into your workflows, not the other way around.
Do you also handle photos and videos?
Photography and video editing are a passion of mine — but for the actual production I work with real professionals from my network so visuals and film are top-tier. For you it still all comes from one hand.
Are the websites GDPR-compliant?
Yes. I rely on privacy-friendly solutions — such as self-hosted fonts, EU hosting and minimal tracking — and advise you on imprint, privacy and cookie topics.
