Real websites and practical AI for small businesses.

I'm Adam. I build websites and AI tools for small businesses across the San Gabriel Valley. I run a small business too. That's why I do this work the way I'd want it done for me.

A letter from the owner

I started The Gridline Company because of one thing I kept seeing.

Small businesses already doing the work of three people, with no time left to figure out the tech side of things and no budget to hire someone full time just for that.

That is most people I talk to. You are running the whole operation yourself. A website, some automation, a little AI, things that could actually help, end up on the back burner because there is no one to hand it to.

That is where I come in. I am not an agency. I am one person, and I keep my prices honest because I built this for people who are watching every dollar.

I am Adam. I am based in West Covina. I do the work, I answer the phone, and I will tell you upfront what something costs and whether it is even the right fit for you.

If you want to talk, I am easy to reach.

How it works

What to expect when you work with me.

No mystery. Here is exactly what happens from the first conversation to after launch.

1

Free 30-Min Chat

I listen, ask questions, and figure out what you actually need. Sometimes that is a website. Sometimes it is just a Google Business Profile cleanup. I will be honest either way.

2

Proposal + Flat Price

You get a written scope with a clear price. No hourly surprises. What is included, what is not, the timeline, and the total cost. That is it.

3

I Build It

I do the work. No handoffs to a team, no disappearing for three weeks. One round of feedback mid-way to make sure we are on the same page.

4

Launch + Handoff

Your site goes live. I walk you through what was built and make sure you know how to use it. I do not drop a zip file and go quiet.

5

I Am Still There

Questions after launch, small tweaks, something you forgot to ask. I am reachable. This is the part most agencies skip entirely.

Where I work

Serving the San Gabriel Valley.

Based in West Covina. Working with small businesses across the SGV and remotely with businesses anywhere in the U.S.

Common questions

Do you only work with businesses in West Covina?

I'm based in West Covina and serve the whole San Gabriel Valley first. But I work with businesses outside the area too. Local clients get the in-person option (we can grab coffee). Remote clients get the same quality of work over Zoom and email.

How long does a website take to build?

Most projects take 4 to 8 weeks. Simple Starter sites can be done in 3 to 4 weeks if we move quickly. Bigger Growth sites usually run 6 to 8 weeks. AI projects vary based on scope.

Why do you publish your prices when most agencies don't?

Because hiding prices wastes everyone's time. You should know up front what something costs. I'd rather lose a lead that wasn't a good fit than spend an hour on a discovery call that ends in sticker shock.

What if I don't know exactly what I need?

Book a free 30-minute chat. I'll ask questions, listen, and tell you what I think you actually need. Sometimes that's a Growth site. Sometimes it's just a logo and a Google Business Profile cleanup. I'll be honest either way.
