  • Services your customers can understand
  • A clear way to enquire or book

For Launch and Growth websites. The 48 hours starts after we agree the scope and I receive the content and access needed to begin. It's a first draft; the full build follows the agreed timeline.

What working with me looks like

  • Fixed price, agreed upfront

    You know the full cost before any work starts. No hourly surprises.

  • Approve the website draft before paying

    On Launch and Growth, there's no deposit. Payment starts when you approve the first draft: 50% then and 50% at launch.

  • You own everything

    Your domain and hosting accounts are in your name. The custom design and code become yours once the project is paid in full.

  • 30 days of free fixes

    After launch, any bugs are fixed at no cost for a full month.

About

Hi, I'm Nikhil.

Nikhil, founder of Draft48

Founder & full-stack developer

Online studio · Remote collaboration

Available for new projects

I'm a full-stack developer who builds websites, online stores and web applications for small businesses and founders.

I've shipped e-commerce platforms in Laravel and the MERN stack, built an inventory management system, developed Next.js applications, and integrated payments and bookings with Stripe and Calendly — deployed on Vercel and DigitalOcean.

I use AI tools to move faster: they help me write, test and document code in a fraction of the time. That speed is passed on to you as shorter timelines and fairer prices. What AI doesn't replace is accountability — I review every line, test every feature, and I'm the person you talk to from first call to launch.

Hands-on experience

  • E-commerce in Laravel and MERN
  • Inventory management system
  • Next.js web applications
  • REST APIs, tested with Postman
  • Stripe & Calendly integrations
  • PostgreSQL and MongoDB
  • Deployments on Vercel & DigitalOcean

FAQ

Questions clients usually ask

Why "Draft48"?

On Launch and Growth website projects, you'll see a working first draft within 48 hours of kickoff. Kickoff means we've agreed the scope and I have the content and access needed to begin. The draft lets you review the direction before the full website is built. Stores, apps and automation projects follow the milestones in their quote.

What is included in the first draft?

A working preview of the main page layout, styling and proposed enquiry or booking flow. It lets you review the direction; the remaining pages, final copy, integrations and testing follow the agreed scope. Your quote defines the deliverables and revision rounds before work starts.

Do you use AI to build websites?

Yes. AI helps me write, test and document code faster, which is why I can offer shorter timelines and lower prices. Every feature is still reviewed, tested and deployed by me, and I'm accountable for the result.

How much does a project cost?

See the packages above for starting prices, or use the estimator for a quick range. After a free call you get a fixed quote, so the price never changes unless the scope does. The first 5 clients get founding-client prices: Launch from USD $299 and Growth from USD $499.

How long will it take?

Launch websites typically take about a week and Growth about two weeks after kickoff. Stores and custom apps follow an agreed project timeline; mobile apps can take longer. The 48-hour first draft applies to Launch and Growth websites and is not a promise of a finished site in two days.

Will I own my website and code?

Your domain and hosting accounts are in your name. Once the project is paid in full, the custom design and code are yours, and you can move to another developer. Third-party software remains under its own licence.

What do you need from me to get started?

Your logo, any existing content and photos, and a few examples of sites you like. Don't have content yet? I can help write it.

How do payments work?

For websites (the Launch and Growth packages) there's no deposit. You see a working first draft within 48 hours of kickoff and only pay if you want to go ahead: 50% when you approve the draft and 50% at launch. Online stores and custom apps (Build) start with a deposit and are split into milestones, so you pay as work is delivered.

What if I don't like the first draft?

Tell me what's off and I'll revise it. If it still isn't right for you, we part ways and you pay nothing. This applies to website projects (Launch and Growth). The draft only becomes yours to use if we go ahead.

What happens after launch?

You get 30 days of free bug fixes. After that, you can join a monthly care plan or simply reach out when you need changes.
