We think every local business
deserves to be found.
Pixelate is a two-person Australian studio on a simple mission: give small businesses an online presence that earns its keep, and the marketing and automation to keep it growing.
We kept seeing the same thing: brilliant local businesses, the café with the best coffee on the street, the sparky who actually turns up, the gym that changes people's lives, losing customers to competitors with worse products but better websites.
Because here's the uncomfortable truth: your customers decide online, before they ever walk in. Around 97% of people now use the internet to find a local business, and 76% of those who search "near me" on their phone visit a business within a day, with 28% of those searches ending in a purchase. A great website doesn't just look good; it sends real people through your door.
And looks count more than most owners realise. 75% of people judge a business's credibility on its website design alone. A tired, slow or missing site quietly tells customers you're not the safe choice, even when you're the best one.
So we started Pixelate to close that gap: fast, modern, beautiful websites at prices a local business can actually justify. Today we do more than the website. We also help with the marketing that fills it and set up simple AI agents that handle the reviews, calls and follow-ups, so good businesses don't just look the part, they run smoother too. No agency jargon, no disappearing act. Just two people who genuinely want to see local businesses win.
