You have a problem. I bring you the solution.

your website· your video· your photos· your business software· getting found on Google

We're a studio with a team spread across time zones. We use AI where it makes sense, which is why it costs and takes far less than a traditional agency. You tell us what's not working, we handle the rest.

What can you do for me?

Do you recognize your problem?

Six lines. If you've said or thought one of them, open the row and see what I do. You don't need to know what the service is called.

01 Your websiteI don't have a website, or I have one I'm embarrassed to send to clients

I'll build you a new one, fast on the phone, with nothing on it except what it takes to get contacted.

  • Looks good on the phone, because that's where almost everything comes from
  • Loads fast even on a slow connection
  • Domain and hosting registered in your name, not mine
  • Need something changed? Message me and it's changed the same day
02 Your software and business systemsI waste hours redoing the same things by hand in spreadsheets

I build you custom software that does it for you. We start with one piece, the one that weighs on you most, and add the rest as needed.

  • Quotes, price lists, bookings, inventory, reminders
  • Also custom internal tools, built one piece at a time instead of all at once
  • Works from phone and computer, nothing to install
  • Built around your way of working, not the other way around
  • You see how it works before I build it
  • I tell you straight if what you're asking for is too big to start right away
03 Your videoI'd like a promo video but every quote I get is out of this world

I make it with AI, starting from photos you already have. No crew, no shoot day, no set to rent.

  • Built from photos you already own
  • Delivered in vertical, square and horizontal
  • If a platform doesn't allow AI content, I tell you upfront
  • Average turnaround 48 hours once you approve the direction
04 Your photosThe only decent photos of me are eight years old

A full portrait set built from the photos already on your phone. No studio to book, no half-day off work.

  • A whole set with the same light and the same style
  • Formats ready for website, LinkedIn, press, posters
  • You approve the direction before anything is produced in full
  • Any image you're not happy with gets redone
05 Getting found on Google and AINobody finds me on Google, and now people ask ChatGPT too

I fix your site so Google can understand it, and write content in the format AI tools cite when someone asks a question in your field.

  • Check what's stopping Google from understanding your site
  • Content written in the format AI cites
  • I show you where you stood and where you stand now, with numbers
  • No promises of a #1 ranking: that's what salespeople do
06 Your strategyI've had an idea in my head for two years but don't know where to start

We talk for half an hour and I tell you what's actually needed, in what order, and what it costs. Even when the answer is that it's not worth doing.

  • What to do first and what can wait
  • What each path costs, roughly
  • What you can do yourself, without paying anyone
  • If you don't need anything I sell, I'll tell you

None of these sound like you? Write to me anyway, tell me about your problem yourself.

So who are you?

No detours

Michydev is a senior studio: a team spread across countries and time zones, built over the years around video, websites and software. When AI arrived we widened what we could do and shortened how long it takes, without inflating the overhead. The advantage is yours: you pay for the work, not for the apparatus.

If you don't need something, I'll tell you. Even when it would be in my interest to sell it to you anyway.

The most visible part of the work is video: some clips have crossed a million views, and the numbers are public on the posts, you don't have to take my word for it. But most of what we do doesn't show: it's the websites, the software and the automations running behind our clients' businesses.

Most of our clients are English-speaking, which is why this site is in English. If you'd rather talk in Italian, the Italian site is one click away — either way, I'm the one you deal with, start to finish.

So how do we work together?

Four steps. You're involved in two.

No meetings that go nowhere, no endless rounds of revisions.

1

You tell me the problem

One message is enough. You don't need to know what to ask for or what it's called.

2

I tell you what's needed and what it costs

A real number for your case, not a range. Within 24 hours.

3

You approve

It's the only decision you have to make. From there, it's on me.

4

You get the finished thing

The site live, the video ready, the software working. And I show you how to use it.

What does it cost me?

The questions everyone asks me.

Straight answers, including the parts that don't work in my favor.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what's needed, and I'd rather give you a real number for your case than write a wrong one here just for you. Message me, I'll reply with a figure within 24 hours, and it's not a quote that grows later.

Do I need to know anything technical?

No. Tell me the problem in your own words, the way you'd tell a friend. Translating it into technical terms is my job, not yours.

Can people tell the video and photos are made with AI?

It's a fair question — most of what's out there is easy to spot. The difference isn't the tool, it's who's directing it. My work is public and you can judge it before spending a dollar.

Do I own the website afterwards?

Yes. Domain and hosting registered in your name, your own access. If you ever want to change who runs it, you take everything with you, no permission needed from me.

What if I don't like the result?

You see the direction before I produce anything, and that's where almost all the risk sits. If what gets delivered isn't right, it gets redone.

Do you work with clients outside the US?

Yes. Most of my clients are English-speaking wherever they're based, and if you're more comfortable in Italian, I've got that covered too.

How do I reach you?

Tell me the problem.

There's no form to fill out, no newsletter, no one calling you back to sell you something. You write to me and I reply myself, usually within four hours.

If you just want to know whether it's worth spending on something, ask me that alone. If the answer is that you don't need it, I'll say so.
