Case studies

Things we've built.

Real products with real users. Every one of these is live right now and you can click straight through to it — no mock-ups, no speculative concepts, nothing you have to take on trust. They also make one point worth stating plainly: the ceiling here is a long way above a five-page website.

Featured case study

Eko19 Energy Platform

A UK commercial energy consultancy — solar, battery storage, monitoring and planning. The largest build we've delivered, and the honest answer to "how big can you actually go?"

Yes, a build at this scale is available if you want one. It isn't a solo job and nobody's going to pretend otherwise — a platform like this brings in the wider Trabelo team for the architecture and back end, and you'd be told exactly who is doing what before agreeing to anything. But if you turn up with something genuinely large, it gets scoped rather than turned away. The rule doesn't change at any size: fixed price agreed in writing first, no hourly billing.

About the project

A 30-page multilingual marketing site combined with self-serve tools — a solar estimator, an energy matchmaker and a free energy audit — plus secure portals for hotel clients, PBSA developers and investors.

The principle behind it is the same one behind a £395 website: build it properly in real code, test it against Google's own tools, and charge for the work rather than the overheads.

Doncaster City FC

A digital fundraising platform for a non-league football club — pitch square fundraiser, sponsorship infrastructure and a membership system with Stripe payments.

Why it mattered

A non-league club has no development budget and no IT department, but exactly the same need as any business taking money online: it has to work, it has to be secure, and it has to be obvious how to pay.

The pitch square fundraiser, sponsorship pages and membership signup all run through one system, with Stripe handling payment end to end. Every donation is tracked, every sponsor gets their page, and nobody has to chase a spreadsheet.

It's the sort of build that normally carries a price tag a community club could never justify — which is exactly why it's worth showing. The same approach scales down to a five-page website and up to a full platform.

What this tier costs here
from £2,500
Fixed price agreed in writing before a line of code is written. Same rule as every other tier — no hourly billing, no surprises.
The £2,500 tier

This is the one most people don't realise exists.

Everyone finds Trabelo through the £395 websites, so the assumption is that's all there is. It isn't. Doncaster City FC is a working example of the tier above: real payments, real member accounts, real money moving through it — built for a club with no development budget and no IT department, for a fraction of what an agency would have quoted.

  • Card payments & recurring billing
  • Member accounts and renewals
  • Sponsorship & fundraising systems
  • Client or investor portals
  • Live dashboards and reporting
  • Bespoke internal tooling
  • Ticketing and event management
  • Multi-language and multi-site

A build at this level doesn't start with an audit or a demo — neither would tell you anything useful. It starts with a 30-minute conversation, and you get a written scope, a fixed price and a timeline back within three working days. Free, and yours to take elsewhere if you want to compare.
