Why KA Digital Labs

Built like software. Because we build software.

  1. 01

    Custom code, not a drag-and-drop builder

    Custom code, performance budgets, version control, and documentation — the practices of a software team, applied to your website.

  2. 02

    We stay after launch

    Management is a core service, not an upsell. We built your site, so we keep it updated, watch for security problems, and suggest improvements.

  3. 03

    We build our own software

    We design, ship, and operate our own software, SiteMind. Any site we build for you is held to the same standard.

  4. 04

    Practical AI, not AI theater

    We add AI where it saves time or wins business, with guardrails, leads sent to you, and a measurable goal.

  5. 05

    Direct access to the work

    No account-manager relay. You work directly with the engineer responsible for your site.

Products

We build our own software, too.

The same standards we apply to every site we build, packaged as software any business can use.

A KA Digital Labs product

An AI front desk for your website.

SiteMind answers visitor questions from your website content, captures leads, and books appointments — added with one short snippet on sites that allow custom code.

  • Answers from your content

    Responds using your website and FAQs — not the open internet. When it isn’t confident, it says so and collects the visitor’s details.

  • Captures leads & bookings

    Turns questions into contacts and appointments instead of lost visitors.

  • Live in minutes

    One copy-paste snippet on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, or a custom site. No code required.

Want an AI assistant on your site this week? That’s SiteMind, and it comes with our Growth care plan.

Questions

Common questions before starting.

Do I own my website?

Yes. Your domain is always yours, and once your site is paid for, the design, text, and images are yours too. We keep our own code and layout system and give you a permanent license to use them for your site. If you ever leave a website build or care plan, we hand the site over at no charge, with up to 1 hour of help moving it (more is $95/hr). On a no-money-down monthly plan, different terms apply: the site files transfer after 12 paid months, or earlier for a set fee. See /terms/plans.

I already have a site. Do I need to start over?

Usually not. Run our free site check: in about a minute it shows what to look at first and whether a rebuild is worth discussing.

Do you work with WordPress, Shopify, or Webflow?

No. Every site runs on our own coded system, not a site builder. Multi-Page sites get a custom design; the One-Page Starter and monthly-plan sites use our ready-made trades layout. That gives us direct control over speed and security. If your site is on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, or another site builder, we can rebuild it as a custom site. Already have a custom-coded site? We can take it over for a one-time $450 setup.

How do I get SiteMind?

Two ways. It’s included with our Growth care plan, where we set it up and update it when you tell us something changed. AI can still get things wrong. Or sign up yourself on sitemind.bot and run it from a simple dashboard.

What happens after launch?

A care plan is where we handle hosting, updates, backups, and small content edits every month. If you’d rather run it yourself, we move the site to you at no charge, with up to 1 hour of help moving it (more is $95/hr).
