Clean Slate Technologies

Services

Services built around how your business operates.

From public sites to internal tools and backend systems—built to evolve, scale, and stay reliable. Not one-off projects that fall apart under real use.

Capabilities

Six ways we help businesses run cleaner.

Website design & development

Modern, responsive websites built for credibility, performance, and easy content updates—no engineer required for a copy fix.

Next.jsPerformanceSEOCMS-ready

Custom web applications

Purpose-built software for the workflows off-the-shelf tools were never designed to handle cleanly.

TypeScriptSecure APIsUX

Business dashboards & internal tools

Internal interfaces that turn scattered reports and disconnected tools into one operational view your team can act on.

Role-based accessReportingData UX

Backend systems & APIs

Structured backends for data, auth, integrations, and business logic that hold up as the business grows.

Node.jsPostgreSQLIntegrations

Sanity CMS implementation

Flexible content management so your team updates pages, services, and SEO without ever touching production code.

SanityStructured contentEditor workflows

Hosting, deployment & support

Reliable deployment, monitoring, and ongoing support so production stays predictable—not a guessing game on release day.

CI/CDMonitoringBackups

How we're different

The difference shows up after launch.

An honest comparison, not a sales pitch. Every column is a real path with real trade-offs.

Discovery & planning

Typical agency

Brief in, deck out. Strategy is whatever the contract says it is.

DIY tools

You own the strategy—and every gap nobody warned you about.

Clean Slate

We start in the messy middle, map a real path, and share trade-offs in plain language.

Maintainability

Typical agency

Beautiful demo. Documentation and structure are often a separate problem later.

DIY tools

It works—until your one power user leaves the company.

Clean Slate

Documented architecture and clean structure—maintainable for the long run, not a one-author dependency.

Tools & lock-in

Typical agency

Whatever stack the agency happens to know best.

DIY tools

Vendor-by-vendor sprawl. Your data lives in nine accounts.

Clean Slate

Open, well-supported stacks. Reasonable exit options stay on the table.

After launch

Typical agency

Support handed to a different team—or a different vendor entirely.

DIY tools

It is all on you.

Clean Slate

Same people who built it. Hosting, monitoring, fixes, and the next phase.

Engagement types

How most engagements actually start.

These are common starting shapes. Real scope gets shaped after we understand what is actually broken.

01

New website or rebuild

Marketing sites, brand rebuilds, public-facing presence.

02

Custom application build

Purpose-built software for workflows that don't fit off-the-shelf.

03

Internal tool or dashboard

Operational interfaces, reporting, and team-facing tools.

04

CMS implementation

Sanity or similar so your team controls the content layer.

05

Backend/API project

Data layer, integrations, structured business logic.

06

Hosting and support retainer

Ongoing deployment, monitoring, and steady improvements.

Technology foundation

Built on technology that can grow with you.

Modern, proven tools that produce fast, secure, maintainable systems. The exact stack flexes to fit the project—the standards behind it do not.

Modern frontend

Next.js (App Router), React, and TypeScript with Tailwind CSS for fast, polished interfaces. Radix primitives for accessible components, Framer Motion for considered motion, React Hook Form and Zod for forms that fail loudly instead of silently.

APIs and server logic

Node.js with Next.js route handlers, server actions, or standalone services where it fits better. Zod schemas shared between client and server so the contract can't drift, and clear boundaries instead of business rules buried in random files.

Databases and data

PostgreSQL on managed providers (Neon, Supabase, Railway) with Prisma or Drizzle for type-safe access. Migrations, automated backups, and row-level security designed in from day one—not bolted on after launch.

Authentication and security

Auth.js, Clerk, or a custom flow depending on the project. Hashed credentials, scoped sessions, audit-friendly access controls, environment-isolated secrets, and HTTPS everywhere by default.

Content management

Sanity CMS with editor-friendly schemas. Pages, services, SEO metadata, and structured data managed by non-technical teams—no deploy required for a copy fix or a new section.

Hosting, CI/CD, and observability

Vercel, Railway, or Fly.io for application hosting; Cloudflare for DNS, CDN, and edge protection. GitHub Actions for CI/CD, Sentry for error tracking, and uptime checks so problems surface before customers see them.
