Web design and AI in Greenville, South Carolina
Studio Hayati is a one-person web design and AI studio in Greenville, SC. I build websites positioned to win their market — fast, credible, and built to turn visitors into customers — plus the AI automations that take manual work off your plate behind them. Most projects launch in about a week, starting at $100 a month.
What I build
Everything is custom — no themes stretched to fit. Each site is designed around what your business actually needs to communicate and what you need visitors to do.
Small business websites
Marketing sites that establish credibility fast and turn visitors into enquiries.
E-commerce & Shopify
Full storefronts with products, checkout, and pre-orders — built to sell, not just to look good.
Landing pages
Focused pages built to convert paid traffic, with the offer and proof in the right order.
Website redesigns
Rebuilds for sites that look dated, load slowly, or don't perform on phones.
Brand & identity
Logo, type, and color systems for businesses starting from scratch or refreshing.
Performance & accessibility
Fast-loading, WCAG 2.1 AA accessible builds — this site included.
AI automation
Custom workflows and automations — lead follow-up, quoting, reporting, and the busywork eating your week.
AI tools & assistants
Internal tools built around how your business actually runs, not a generic subscription.
Workflow optimization
Find where time and money leak, then remove the manual steps causing it.
Work from here
Recent builds include The MHK House, a luxury architecture studio site, and Baking with Care, a Greenville bakery storefront — both local. Further afield: FeX Group, an industrial materials brokerage; Fruit Fly Defense, a direct-to-consumer product brand; and Hunter Vought, an apparel brand for a menswear creator with more than a million followers; and Catalyst, a brand and site for an embedded AI program.
You can see all six sites running live on the homepage — real work, not mockups.
Why work with someone local
You get one person, start to finish. The person who designs your site is the person who writes its code and answers your emails — no account managers, no hand-offs, no telephone game. If you're in the Greenville area, we can meet in person; if you're not, nothing about the process changes.
It also means I learn your business properly — your customers, your margins, your voice — and build like I work there. That's the part agencies structurally can't do at this price.
How it works
- 1Tell me about the project. A few details through the form — takes a minute and commits you to nothing.
- 2Free quote within a day. A fixed price and a couple of ideas for the site — no sales pitch, no obligation.
- 3Design and build. You see real work quickly, not wireframes and status meetings.
- 4Launch — usually about a week in. Hosting and ongoing updates are handled from there.
What it costs
Plans start at $100 per monthand cover the design, the build, hosting, and ongoing updates — so there's no large invoice to clear before you have a website. Every project gets a free, fixed quote up front, so you know the number before anything starts.
For comparison, most agencies in the area quote several thousand dollars upfront and three to six months of calendar time for work of the same scope.
Common questions
How much does a website cost in Greenville, SC?
Plans start at $100 per month, which covers the design, the build, hosting, and ongoing updates — so there's no large upfront invoice. Every project gets a free, fixed quote before any work starts, so you know the number in advance. Most local agencies quote several thousand dollars upfront for comparable work.
How long does it take to build a website?
Most sites are designed, built, and launched in about a week. Agencies typically quote three to six months for the same scope. The difference is structural: you work directly with the person doing the work, so there are no hand-offs, account managers, or waiting on a queue.
Do you only work with businesses in Greenville?
No. Studio Hayati is based in Greenville, South Carolina and works with businesses across the Upstate and the rest of the United States. Being local just means clients in the Greenville area can meet in person if they prefer.
What kinds of businesses do you build websites for?
A mix — an architecture studio, a bakery, an industrial materials brokerage, a direct-to-consumer product brand, an AI consultancy, and an apparel brand for a creator with over a million followers. The common thread is small teams that need a site that looks credible and actually converts.
Do you do AI work as well as websites?
Yes — it's half of what the studio does. That means mapping where manual work is costing your team time, then building the automations, workflows, and internal tools to remove it: lead follow-up, quoting, reporting, data entry, routing. Some clients come for a website, some come for the automation, and plenty end up doing both.
Do you build online stores?
Yes. Several of the sites in the portfolio are full e-commerce storefronts, including Shopify builds that handle products, checkout, and pre-orders.
Can you redesign my existing website?
Yes. Redesigns are common — usually when a site looks dated, loads slowly on phones, or isn't turning visitors into customers. The starting point is a free review of what you have now.
Who owns the website when it's finished?
You do. You own your domain, your content, and your site. Nothing is held hostage.
Do you handle hosting, updates, and maintenance?
Yes — hosting and ongoing updates are included in the monthly plan. If you need a change, you email the person who built the site and it gets done.
