The Xymel Difference

Exceptional results.

Questions

Asked & answered.

Direct answers to the things people actually ask before getting in touch.

Why are you cheaper than London agencies?

Two reasons. First, our overheads are lower — we're based in the North East, not Shoreditch, and we run a tight, senior team without layers of account managers and middle-management.

Second, we use AI heavily inside our own workflow. That means design, content, and code that used to take a junior team a fortnight, we deliver in days. We pass those savings on rather than billing you for hours we didn't spend.

Do I have to be based in the North East to work with you?

Not at all. We're proudly North East and we love working with local businesses, but we work with clients across the UK and internationally too. Everything is delivered remotely as standard, with optional in-person sessions if you're nearby.

How long does a typical project take?

A Starter site is typically 2 weeks from kickoff to launch. A Growth project — including AI work and a larger site — usually runs 4 weeks. We give you a fixed delivery date in the proposal and stick to it.

If we ever look like we're going to miss it, you'll hear from us early — never on the day itself.

What makes Xymel different from other local agencies?

Two things, mostly. We're senior — 16+ years deep in the work — so you get the same person on day one as on day one hundred. And we treat AI as a core capability, not a buzzword we tacked onto a proposal.

The result is fewer surprises, faster delivery, and outcomes that compound over time rather than needing to be rebuilt next year.

Can you work with our existing website or do we start from scratch?

Both are fine. If your current site is structurally sound, we'll improve it — performance, SEO, conversions, AI integrations. If it's holding you back, we'll be honest about that and quote a clean rebuild.

You'll always get a recommendation, with reasoning, before we touch anything.

What is an AI Audit and what will I actually get from it?

It's a 30-minute call where you walk us through how your business actually runs day-to-day. We listen, ask sharp questions, and identify where AI or automation could save you real time.

You walk away with three prioritised opportunities in writing, a rough estimate of the time and money each could save you, and zero obligation to do anything about it. About a third of audit attendees never become clients — and that's fine.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. Standard terms are 50% upfront and 50% on launch for fixed-price projects. For larger pieces of work we're happy to split that into three or four monthly payments. Just ask.

How do we get started?

Book the free AI Audit. It's the lowest-risk way to find out whether we're a good fit — and you get a written action plan whether or not we end up working together. Most people who book one tell us afterwards it was the most useful 30 minutes they spent that week.
