How it works
Request to live, with a safety net at every step
You ask
Any request, in plain language, from any device.
We build
On a private copy of your site — never the live one.
You approve
A preview arrives. One click to ship, or ask for changes.
It ships
Backed up, deployed, verified, logged. Zero downtime.
Built, not patched
Every change goes up like a frame.
Foundation first, then the structure, then the checks — in that order, every time. It's how a site stays sound for years instead of months.
On a private copy first
Every request is built on a staging clone of your site. The live site is never the workbench.
Logged piece by piece
Each action — ours or automated — lands in your portal timeline the moment it happens.
Raised only when you approve
A preview arrives; you say go. Then it's deployed, cache purged, and verified — with a backup behind it.
What you get back
Less than a hire. More than a freelancer. Tallied every month.
Your plan replaces the engineering hours, the hosting and licenses, and the emergencies you'd otherwise pay for — and your portal shows the tally in dollars, not promises.
Your time back
Ask in plain words, approve a preview, done. Your website stops being a to-do list you're avoiding.
Your costs covered
Hosting, premium licenses, monitoring, and tooling are inside the plan. One flat fee replaces a drawer of invoices.
Found where customers now ask
Answer-engine optimization (AEO) alongside classic SEO — structured data, question-led content, and nightly checks — so AI assistants cite you, not a competitor.

The threats have changed
Your site is attacked by software now. It should be defended by software.
Most small-business sites were set up for a world of the occasional spam bot. That world is gone. Here's what we watch for every night — and what we do about it.
AI-driven credential attacks
Automated login floods that adapt in real time. We rate-limit, block, and rotate — and you see the count in your portal each morning.
Prompt injection through your forms
Contact forms and chat widgets are now an attack surface for anything AI-assisted downstream. We sanitize inputs and isolate what reaches any model.
AI scrapers eating your bandwidth
Crawlers that ignore robots.txt can double hosting costs and slow real customers. We fingerprint and throttle them without hurting search engines.
Unpatched dependency chains
One outdated plugin is the usual way in. Every update is staged, tested, and promoted the same night — with a backup behind it.
Real work, real logs
Care around the clock. Builds on demand.
Phone automations, API integrations, mobile apps — every engagement told as an ops log.

Questions, answered directly
What people ask first
›What does Timberwright actually do?
We become your technology team. We take over complete care of your website — hosting, security, updates, backups, performance — run improvement work every night, handle your change requests through a preview-and-approve pipeline, and report the value delivered in real dollars. Growth and Partner plans add SEO/AEO programs and hands-on engineering for custom features and apps.
›How is this different from a normal web agency or maintenance plan?
Three ways: the work happens every night — our engineers build automation so it never waits for someone to get around to it; every change is tested on a staging copy and requires approval before touching your live site; and every action is logged in a portal you can open any time — you see exactly what your fee buys.
›What happens when I request a change?
You submit it in your portal. Within minutes our system picks it up, makes the change on a private staging copy of your site, verifies it, and sends you a preview link. Nothing goes live until you approve it. Most standard requests show you a preview the same day.
›What kinds of sites and products do you work on?
All of them. We care for websites on any platform, and we're a full-stack engineering practice: custom features, integrations, APIs, web applications, and iOS/Android apps. The Partner plan includes monthly engineering hours; larger product builds are scoped separately.
›What is AEO?
Answer Engine Optimization — structuring your business's web presence so AI assistants recommend you when people ask questions, not just so search engines rank you. It's included in our Growth plan.
›What about AI-driven attacks and scrapers?
They're the new normal, and most small-business sites were never set up for them. Every night we rate-limit and block automated login floods, close the paths that let a visitor's form input steer any AI assistant on your site (prompt injection), throttle scrapers that ignore robots.txt without touching search engines, and stage every dependency update before it ships. You see the counts in your portal — the attempts that didn't work, not just the one that might have.
›How much does it cost?
Care is $349/month, Growth is $749/month, and Partner is $1,650/month, with two months free on annual plans. Custom product builds (apps, platforms) are quoted per project. Every plan includes hosting and our premium license library — most clients end up spending less in total than they did piecing it together.
