Web design, apps and AI in Melbourne's northern suburbs

We design websites and build AI tools for businesses in Brunswick, Coburg, Preston, Heidelberg and Epping. The north runs from the cafe, music and design scene of the inner north to hospitals around Heidelberg and wholesale food around Epping, so projects range from brand-led sites to booking systems and supplier portals. Work runs by video, with visits by arrangement.

Common requests

What businesses in Melbourne's northern suburbs often need

  • Event listings that update themselves

    Gig guides and event pages fed from your ticketing platform, so the program on the site is never out of date.

    Websites

  • An ordering portal for trade customers

    Cafes and restaurants place standing orders, see cut-off times and download invoices, instead of texting orders at midnight.

    Orders arriving by email, form or text are read, checked and entered into your system, with anything odd flagged for a person.

How we work

How we work with businesses in Melbourne's northern suburbs

From a Brunswick studio to an Epping warehouse, we adapt how we work to the business in front of us.

  1. Step 01

    Start with a conversation

    A video discovery call to understand what is slowing you down or holding the site back.

  2. Step 02

    See it in action when it matters

    For ordering and warehouse projects, watching the morning order rush tells us more than any document. We can arrange a visit.

  3. Step 03

    Small first release

    We ship the most useful piece first, then build on it once it is proven in daily use.

Questions

Questions from businesses in Melbourne's northern suburbs

Can you build a site for a venue or studio with events?

Yes. We design the site around your program, pulling events from the ticketing or booking platform you already use so each gig, class or exhibition appears automatically with its own page. Event pages carry structured data so Google can show dates and ticket links, and the whole site stays fast on a phone in a crowded room.

Do you build supplier or ordering portals?

Yes. For wholesale and produce businesses we build a secure portal where trade customers log in, place or repeat orders before your cut-off, see their own pricing and download invoices. It connects to your accounting or inventory system, so orders arrive ready to pick rather than being typed in from messages.

Is there an office in the northern suburbs?

No, there is no office in the north. Pylon Digital is based in Melbourne, and discovery calls and most meetings run by video. When seeing your venue, studio or warehouse would help, we can arrange to visit in Brunswick, Coburg, Preston, Heidelberg, Epping or nearby.

Can a health provider's site meet accessibility standards?

Yes. We design and test every site against WCAG 2.2 AA, which matters for patients and carers who use screen readers, zoom or keyboard navigation. That covers colour contrast, text size, form labels, focus order and plain-English content. Our accessibility statement explains how we test our own site.

Cost, timelines and how engagements work are covered in our general FAQ.
