Tech help that
fits the shape

of your problem.

Some people need a website. Most need help with the stuff behind one. The task that quietly eats an afternoon. The software nobody remembers signing up for. Tell me what's bugging you and I'll take it from there.

WEIRD-SHAPED PROBLEMS WELCOME

Work that doesn't fit a pricing page:

Database tune-ups

Airtable, Notion, or the Excel file that quietly became a monster. Made usable again in a couple hours, often saving weeks.

Software audits

Cancel the five subscriptions doing one job. Add what's actually missing.

Integration glue

Make your tools talk. Square → QuickBooks. Calendar → email list, automatically.

Workflow surgery

Five manual steps into one. Or zero. The repetitive work you keep doing by hand that a script should handle.

Data cleanup

The customer list that's 40% duplicates. The inventory file last touched in 2019 that everyone's been avoiding. I'll open it.

Whatever the thing is

If it's tech and it's quietly stressful, tell me. If I can't fix it I'll tell you who can.

HOW THIS GETS PRICEDPackages above are flat fee. Weirder work is hourly or priced per project. First conversation is free either way.

How it actually works.

FOUR STEPS · NO SURPRISES
01 / TELL ME

You describe what's annoying.

Email or a quick form. Don't worry about being technical. The more "it's just weird" the better.

Same day
02 / I LOOK

I look it over, free.

I write back with what's broken and what's worth fixing first. If something else is actually fine, I'll tell you that too.

Within 2 days
03 / WE AGREE

You get a written quote.

Flat fee or hourly cap, with the scope spelled out in plain English so you know what you'll have at the end.

Same week
04 / I DO IT

I do the work and hand it over.

Logins and docs handed over, plus a 30-day "if it breaks I fix it" window. You're never stuck with just me.

Per project

About Ash.

ONE PERSON · KODIAK BASED
Me and my dog at a Kodiak park at dusk

I'm Ash. I started behind the counter at a fast food place, then a mall clothing store where I counted inventory by hand. After that, a Jamaican restaurant in Jersey where the menu lived on a chalkboard and the rush hit whenever it felt like it.

At a dental office in New Jersey I ended up doing a little of everything. Front desk, billing, scheduling, the printer that jammed twice a week. I was the office manager without the title. If something broke, I fixed it or I figured out who could.

Then came the rug shop. Eleven thousand inventory photos, no two lit the same way. I'd been hired to do something else. I rebuilt the database and reshot the catalog. Then I quietly became the person who got called when the website went down. That was the pattern. I walk in for one job and end up touching everything that keeps the place running.

After that I worked at two of the biggest e-commerce warehouses in the country. Now I work security at the hospital here in Kodiak. Northline is how I put all of it to good use.

The thing I'm actually good at is knowing what small businesses run on. Usually four pieces of software, one spreadsheet somebody made in 2019, and a person who knows the workaround.

FOUNDING-CLIENT PRICINGThe first ten projects get founder rates. Usually 30 to 40% off any package above, in exchange for permission to write up the work afterward. If you're early, ask.

The questions people usually ask.

FAQ
How much does a website actually cost?

Usually $800 to $1,800 flat for a small local site. Where you land in that range depends on page count and whether you need booking or payments wired in. You get the exact figure in writing before any work starts. No "we'll see how it goes" billing.

I don't really know what I need. Is that okay?

That's most folks. First call is free so we can figure it out before you commit. Sometimes the answer is "you don't need a new site, you need three settings changed." Either way you'll leave with a clearer picture.

What if I just need one weird thing fixed?

Perfect. That's most of what I do. Email the weird thing, I'll quote it.

Do you only work with Kodiak businesses?

Mostly. Being able to drive to your office is part of the value. But I'll take remote work that fits, especially in other small Alaskan towns.

What's the best way to reach you?

Email hello@northline.design or send a text. Usually a reply within a few hours, always within one business day. Want to talk first? Say so and I'll set up a call.

What happens if you get sick or hit by a bus?

Everything I build is documented and handed off in a form you (or any other developer) can pick up. Your accounts are in your name. Never stuck with just me.

SAY HI · KODIAK, AK

Tell me what's broken.

Or annoying, or the thing that's been nagging you in the back of your mind. First conversation is free. You'll leave with a clearer picture.
