Websites and web apps, built from scratch for your business
We build every website and web app on Next.js and host it on Vercel. When you need a database, we use Supabase. It's the same technology stack that companies like Nike, LG, The Washington Post, Virgin and Target run their own sites on. No WordPress theme, no plugins that break at the next update — just clean, custom-built code.
For us, web design isn't just a mockup in a design tool — it's a design that gets built in code and goes straight live. We built the site you're on right now ourselves, so you can judge the result with your own eyes.
From a simple marketing site to a complete web application
Every website and web app is built from scratch around your needs — no templates, no compromises on quality.
Marketing sites
Editorial-style sites that load instantly. Clear storytelling, genuine quotes and built-in search engine optimisation. Ideal for businesses that want the site to carry their own brand, not a template.
Web apps with logins
Authentication, roles, a database and real business rules. Vegferð is a good example: a job marketplace with MFA, an ATS pipeline and AI-based matching.
Custom admin dashboards
A back office you'll genuinely want to use, not a stock Strapi or WordPress wp-admin. Take a look at the /admin area on vefapp.is: cost overviews, SEO controls, redirects and 404 monitoring, all built specifically around your business as it actually runs.
AI interfaces
AI assistants with a personality of their own, automated site scans that write up a report, search that understands context. Built on Anthropic Claude, with RAG over Postgres where needed.
The foundation every site is built on
Not an optional extras list, but the foundation every site stands on. Nothing you have to pay extra for, no gaps that surface after handover.
Vercel hosting
An edge network across 70+ cities, automatic SSL and an automatic preview deploy for every change. No separate web-server account, no manual backups.
90+ on Google PageSpeed
Server-rendered HTML, lazy-loaded images, trimmed font files. Not an experiment — the default. Measured on real traffic, not just a lab Lighthouse score.
Search engine optimisation (SEO)
Server-rendered HTML, JSON-LD structured data, sitemap, robots, canonical URLs and hreflang, per-page OG images, 301/302 redirects and 404 monitoring. Not an add-on you buy afterwards, but the foundation everything rests on.
See the full overview →Bilingual (IS/EN)
next-intl with strict key matching between Icelandic and English, automatic hreflang tagging and canonical URLs. Both versions are handled equally well in search.
Monthly code review
We review everything new that comes in, update libraries and fix security weaknesses before they turn into problems. Continuous maintenance, not just when something breaks.
Fixed prices where possible
When a project is well defined, we offer a fixed price rather than an hourly rate. You know what you'll pay before we start, and we carry the risk on the estimate.
GDPR with categorised consent
Cookie consent across four categories (necessary, functionality, analytics, marketing) with accept-all, reject-all and customise options. Preferences are stored in the browser and can be changed at any time through the link in the footer. No third-party chat widget, no tracking pixel that fires before the visitor has decided.
WCAG 2 AA accessibility
Every site we build meets WCAG 2 AA, the W3C's international accessibility standard. Adequate colour contrast, full keyboard control, screen-reader compatibility and labels that assistive technology understands. This isn't only for users with impairments; it also makes the site more legible in bright sunlight, on the bus and for anyone who's short on time.
What we can build into your site
Things we already have to hand and can build into your site where it fits. All custom-built, no plugin bazaar.
AI assistants with personality
The same pattern as Edda, who answers on vefapp.is, or Evín, who knows every wine on amka.is. A bespoke voice that knows only your product and points to real pages on your own site.
Explore AI assistants →AI features inside your product
Smart search that understands context, automatic classification, extraction from documents. It runs either in the cloud on Claude or offline on Nvidia hardware for those who don't trust internet-connected AI.
Explore AI solutions →SEO-optimised copywriting
We write the content itself, not just the framework around it. Every page gets a title, description, headings and body copy that carry your brand and target the keywords your customers actually use. Included: an H1/H2 hierarchy, meta descriptions, image alt text and JSON-LD data — everything Google needs to understand the page quickly and correctly.
Online store
A custom online store on Next.js with Teya payments (card + contactless), Payday invoicing and delivery through Dropp and Íslandspóstur. Self-service checkout, stock levels, promo codes, a feedback system and receipts, all in a single dashboard. Ideal for brands that want a store that carries their own look, not a Shopify template.
On top of that, API integrations with Teya, Payday, Dropp, Íslandspóstur and the 1819 SMS gateway, plus custom work-order systems (CRM). See all add-ons and integrations at vefapp.is →
