Question 1

Do you build automation and scripts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We build custom automation using whatever tool fits: Python scripts, TypeScript/Node.js tooling, Playwright browser automation, AI agent workflows with MCP integrations, and custom API pipelines. From Spotify playlist management to publishing rights verification, if it can be automated, we can build it.

Question 2

Can you help with AI integration?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We build AI agent systems with MCP integrations, work with OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini APIs, and have shipped multiple AI-powered products including music generation tools and multi-agent orchestration systems.

Question 3

What kinds of work do you take on?

Accepted Answer

Most work falls into two buckets: conversion-focused websites and consulting. That can mean redesigning a marketing site, clarifying an offer, shaping a technical approach, or helping execution stay coherent from strategy through build.

Question 4

Do you only work in music or creative industries?

Accepted Answer

No. Music and creative work inform the perspective and taste, but the service offer is broader. Tricion works with businesses that need stronger websites, clearer digital positioning, and technically competent execution.

Question 5

Who is this for?

Accepted Answer

Founders, operators, and teams that have something real to sell but need their website, offer, or delivery model to communicate and perform better.

Question 6

Can you work with our internal developers or vendors?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Some engagements stay strategic and feed into an internal team or external partner. Others continue into direct implementation. The point is to keep positioning, design, and technical execution aligned.

Question 7

Do you offer consulting without building the site yourself?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Consulting can stand on its own when the immediate need is offer clarity, site direction, technical planning, or a stronger decision framework. If implementation is the better fit, that can happen after.

Question 8

How much do you charge?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on scope, timeline, and whether the work is a focused website build, broader consulting engagement, or both. The contact form is designed to collect enough context to give you a straight answer quickly.

Question 9

How fast can you start?

Accepted Answer

Usually a first conversation can happen within a week, depending on workload. If there is a fit, the next step is scoped clearly so both sides know the outcome before work starts.

Question 10

What happens after the first call?

Accepted Answer

You get a direct recommendation: a focused website project, a consulting engagement, a combined scope, or a clear no if it is not the right fit.

Question 11

Are you taking new clients?

Accepted Answer

Yes, selectively. If the work is a fit, we will say where we can help and what the next step should be. If it is not a fit, we will say that early.

Question 12

What tech stack do you work with?

Accepted Answer

Most implementation work centers around TypeScript, Next.js, React, APIs, automation, and practical business tooling. The stack matters less than whether the result is fast, maintainable, and commercially useful.

Question 13

How much does a website or consulting engagement cost?

Accepted Answer

Project fees vary depending on scope, complexity, and timeline. A focused marketing website typically falls in the €2,000–€8,000 range; larger builds and consulting retainers are scoped individually. Fixed-project pricing is preferred over hourly billing — it gives you a clear number upfront. The contact form is the fastest way to get a straight answer on cost for your specific situation.

Question 14

How long does it take to build a website?

Accepted Answer

A focused marketing or portfolio website typically takes two to six weeks from a clear brief to a live result, depending on complexity and how quickly decisions get made. Larger builds involving custom functionality, integrations, or multiple pages take longer. The clearer the scope upfront, the faster the delivery.

Question 15

Do I need a custom website or can I use a template?

Accepted Answer

Templates are a reasonable starting point if your needs are standard and your positioning is not a differentiator. A custom website makes sense when you need to stand out in a competitive market, when your offer requires a specific conversion flow, or when a template would look like every other site in your category. Most businesses underestimate how much a generic site costs them in credibility.

Question 16

What's the difference between a website and a web app?

Accepted Answer

A website is primarily informational: it communicates who you are, what you offer, and gets visitors to take a specific action like booking a call or making a purchase. A web app has user accounts, state, complex interactions, and logic that runs per user. Think dashboards, SaaS tools, or booking systems. Many businesses actually need a great website, not a full application, and the distinction matters for scoping and cost.
