Custom Website Package

For labs that need a fully tailored solution with maximum flexibility.

Some research labs outgrow templates. If your lab has complex needs, strict institutional requirements, unique data, or a vision that doesn’t fit into a prebuilt framework, our Custom Website Package gives you complete freedom — backed by a team that understands academic research inside and out.

This is a full-service, white-glove website build designed specifically for research labs that want a truly bespoke online presence.

This option is ideal for labs with:

  • Complex content or large publication archives

  • Strict university branding or accessibility requirements

  • Custom data, integrations, or interactive features

  • A need to migrate content from multiple existing systems

With the Custom Website Package, we work closely with you to design and implement a research lab website tailored to your goals, audience, and institution. From strategy to launch, our team handles every step — design, content, configuration, and advanced functionality — so you don’t have to compromise.
