About CatalystHub
Built to give it back.
Unlimited revisions, and no website goes live until you're 100% happy with it. When it does, you own every login: the code, the domain and the hosting.
Founder & Principal - CatalystHub
Vish
Engineer by background, founder by choice. After years of watching small-business owners get locked out of their own websites by the agencies that built them, Vish started CatalystHub as the productised opposite of that, and brought together a team to run it. The standing rule: no website ships without the client owning every login. The standing offer: flat price, seven business days, on-time delivery written into the contract. The standing answer when something needs fixing on a live client site: same day, no drama.
- Based in Perth, Australia - working with clients worldwide
- Leads the Perth team built around the productised 7-day delivery system
- Builds on Astro, Cloudflare Pages, TinaCMS and Stripe - the same stack used on this site
- WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility target on every site shipped
- 100% ownership handover written into the standard contract

The team
Who are the catalysts shaping what comes next?
A Perth studio built so prices stay flat, delivery stays seven business days, and the people who designed the system are the same people building your site.

Why CatalystHub exists.
Every small-business owner I’ve sat next to in a café has the same story.
They paid someone $1,500–$3,000 a few years back for a website. The site looked okay at the time. It’s now slow, the photos haven’t been updated since 2022, and the person who built it either disappeared or charges $200 to change a phone number. The owner doesn’t have the password to anything. When I ask “Where’s it hosted?” they say “I’m not sure - the guy looks after it.”
That’s not a website. That’s a hostage situation.
The productised response
CatalystHub is the boring answer to that situation. Three constraints, locked into the contract:
- One flat price. US$500 for a 5-page Standard build. US$1,500+ for a Specialist build. No “discovery workshops” billed by the hour. No surprise invoices.
- Seven business days. From kickoff call to launch. On-time delivery is written into the contract - if the dates slip on our side, we keep working at our own cost until the site is live. No extra invoice. You can hold us to that in writing.
- You keep every login. Your GitHub repo, your domain registrar, your Cloudflare account, your TinaCMS editor. Documented on a single handover sheet. Nothing in our name. Nothing you can’t walk away with.
That’s it. Nothing on this site is going to sell you a “growth strategy” or a quarterly retainer you don’t need. The retainer most small businesses need is US$49/month for hosting and backups - we sell that - but it’s optional, month-to-month, and cancel-anytime.
What we won’t do
We won’t take payment for a project we don’t think we can deliver. We won’t quote a Standard build for a project that obviously needs Specialist. We won’t put you on a 12-month contract. We won’t hold a single password as leverage.
If we’re not the right fit for your project, we’ll say so on the call and recommend someone who is. There are very good developers doing very different work - agency-quality bespoke builds, e-commerce specialists, conversion-rate optimisation. CatalystHub is one productised lane. If it fits, it fits well. If it doesn’t, we’ll save you the call.
What to do next
We’re based in Perth, Australia, and work with clients worldwide. If any of this sounds like what you’ve been looking for, start your project - the brief takes a minute and we’ll reply the same day. Or book a 30-minute call and we’ll talk it through at a time that works for your time zone. Either way, no follow-up sequence, no pitch, no obligation.

The production system
Why this stack - and why it matters to your invoice.
Big-budget agencies bill $20,000 for sites built on Astro, Cloudflare, TinaCMS and Stripe. We use the same stack and price it as a productised deliverable from US$500 - by removing the parts that don't move the needle. No discovery workshops billed by the hour. No bespoke CMS for a 5-page brochure. No JavaScript framework that takes 4 seconds to start. The whole thing is open infrastructure - you could hire another developer tomorrow to take over the site, and they'd be able to. That's the whole point.
- Astro Generates static pages - fast, cheap to host, almost impossible to hack. Your site loads in under a second on a phone on mobile data.
- TinaCMS The editor. Feels like editing a Word document - click into a heading and type. No plugins to break, no admin panel to log into weekly.
- Cloudflare Pages Hosts the site, free at small-business volumes. Free CDN, free SSL, enterprise-grade DDoS protection.
- Stripe + Formbricks Stripe handles payment. Formbricks handles your project brief and on-site contact forms - no third-party CRM trap.
- 7 days Standard delivery window
- 100% On-time launch rate
- 100% Ownership handed over at launch
Google reviews
Five stars, straight from Google.
CatalystHub built our new website. Vish took the time to understand what we needed, kept us updated through the whole process, and had the site live in 3 weeks. The price was much lower than the other quotes we got, and the quality didn't suffer. Highly recommend them for web design and SEO in Perth.
So glad we picked CatalystHub. They did a full custom design based on our requirements and it looks far more professional than we expected for the price. Honestly, I don't think you'll find better value for money anywhere in Australia. They were clear about costs from day one, and there were no surprises. Couldn't be happier. Highly recommend.
CatalystHub showed me how overpriced most agencies are. Clear prices, no hidden fees, and better results for less.
Really happy with the website they built for us. The whole process was smooth, communication was clear, and they were patient with all the small changes we needed along the way. The final website looks professional, clean, and easy to use. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable website design team.
Very professional and easy to deal with from the start to finish. Communication was clear, the process was smooth and the final website design was excellent.
CatalystHub was truly amazing at what they do. Vish organised everything from start to finish. Communication was excellent, nothing was ever a problem, and no questions were left unanswered. Very happy with their services. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking to get a website set up. A huge thank you!
I had a great experience working with this team. What stood out most was how easy they made the whole process feel. They listened properly, understood what I wanted, and turned it into a website that feels professional and suits the business well. I never felt rushed or confused, and the communication was friendly from start to finish. Highly recommend them.

Honestly, I was surprised by the quality of the work, especially considering the price. The final result looked professional, polished and far better than I expected for what I paid. Great value for money, and I'm genuinely happy with the outcome. Highly recommend CatalystHub!

CatalystHub recently redesigned our website, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. We would recommend them again and again. The entire experience was seamless from beginning to end. They created a fresh new look for us and ticked all the boxes. They understood our brand quickly and gave us exactly the revamp we needed. The team was experienced, professional, and easy to deal with throughout the process. Getting a website right isn’t always as simple as it seems, but they have a great eye for detail and made the whole process feel effortless. The feedback since launch has been wonderful. Thank you, CatalystHub!
