Expert advice on all things digital
Honest, practical advice on your website, platform, and technology choices. We help you make the right decisions before spending money on the wrong build.
Usually when something feels off but you can't pin down why. Your website is slow and nobody can explain it. You've been quoted wildly different prices by three agencies and don't know who to trust. You're about to sign off on a platform choice and want someone independent to sanity-check it. Or you've been burned before and want a technical person in the room before you commit to anything.
We sit in on client meetings, review proposals from other agencies, write technical specifications, assess whether your current platform is the right one, and give honest recommendations. Sometimes the answer is 'what you have is fine, just fix these three things.' Sometimes it's 'you need to rebuild, and here's why.' We don't have a preferred answer. We have an honest one.
Your site has accumulated 50+ plugins and nobody knows what half of them do. You've been hacked more than once. Your hosting is managed by 'someone we used to work with' and you don't have the login details. You're comparing quotes and the prices range from £2,000 to £40,000 for what sounds like the same thing. Any of these ring true? That's when an independent technical review saves you money.

“Five years and counting”
Innatus supported us through the transition from our legacy platform to a completely new e-commerce site and bespoke back-office system. They led the technical strategy, built complex integrations with our suppliers and logistics partners, and have managed everything since. Five years into the partnership and they still treat our business like it is their own. We are already planning the next phase together.

After years on WordPress and Elementor, I've rebuilt our own site on Next.js 16 and Sanity v5. Here's why I made the switch, what I prioritised, and what I learned along the way.

Discovery and scoping sessions typically run between £2,000 and £5,000 depending on complexity. We agree the scope before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Yes. A significant part of our work is supporting agencies and in-house teams with technical expertise they don't have internally. We fit into your existing workflow.
No. Some clients start with a single project and others move to a retainer. Either works. We don't lock anyone into contracts they don't want.
That's fine. Consultancy-only engagements are common. We'll give you honest advice on architecture, platform choices, and technical strategy without requiring you to hire us for the build.
Yes, and this is one of the most common things we do. We'll review the technical approach, flag any concerns, and give you an honest assessment of whether the scope and pricing make sense. Sometimes we save clients tens of thousands by catching problems before they sign.
Yes. We'll do a security audit, clean up the immediate issue, harden the site, and set up proper monitoring. Then we'll recommend a long-term hosting and maintenance plan so it doesn't happen again.
That's exactly what discovery is for. We assess your requirements, your team's technical ability, your budget, and your growth plans, then recommend the right platform with clear reasoning. We work across WordPress, Craft CMS, Shopify, BigCommerce, Sanity, and custom builds, so the recommendation is based on fit, not preference.
