Next.js development agency, Vercel Silver partner

Build the application end to end: interface, app architecture, data and content layer, auth and permissions, and the Vercel deployment model. Those decisions interlock, which is the whole argument for one team owning them together.

Where it goes wrong is an agency that takes the React layer only and leaves caching, session handling, cost control and observability for someone else to solve later.

Roboto Studio projects start at $25k. That matches our DesignRush minimum budget of $25,000 to $50,000 and our listed average of $200 an hour.

Above $25k the price depends on how much of the product already exists, whether auth and billing are in scope, how many systems sit behind the interface, and whether you want us shipping after launch. You get a scope and a price for the first version before anyone writes code.

We are biased, so check the evidence. We are a Vercel Silver Solution Partner, so Vercel has reviewed our production work. Named US Next.js builds include Tray.ai (builds cut from a full day to 2 minutes, 500,000 pages migrated in six weeks), Slingshot Bio (WordPress and Shopify converged in three months) and Topaz Labs (documentation platform in four weeks).

Ask any agency you compare for named production URLs, who owns the App Router and caching decisions, and what happens to the Vercel bill after launch.

Yes, and that is how most of our engagements run. A lead engineer learns your codebase and works in your repo and your standups, with designers and other developers alongside as the work demands.

You can also hire us for a fixed-scope first version, or for one focused piece of work like an auth rebuild, an AI feature or a performance pass.

Yes. Roboto Studio is a Vercel Silver Solution Partner.

Day to day that shows up in unglamorous places: runtime choices, cache boundaries, firewall rules, preview deployments, AI Gateway usage and keeping the bill predictable as traffic grows. We also have a direct line to Vercel's team when a platform question gets hard.

When the site is pure content with no application logic behind it. A brochure site or a documentation set is often better served by Astro, and we will tell you that rather than sell you a heavier build.

Next.js earns its complexity when marketing pages and a logged-in product have to live in one codebase: SEO pages, onboarding, account areas, dashboards, admin tools and AI features on the same deploy.

For a first version of a focused app, weeks rather than quarters. Topaz Labs' documentation platform took four weeks. Slingshot Bio's headless commerce build took three months from design to launch. Tray.ai's re-platform migrated 500,000 pages in six weeks.

Portals and AI products with real auth, billing and third-party integrations take longer, and we scope those in stages.

Often. Inherited apps are a steady part of the work: Pages Router upgrades, App Router migrations, rendering and caching that got away from the team, Vercel bills nobody can explain.

We start with an audit and tell you honestly whether the codebase is worth extending or whether the parts causing the pain need rebuilding.

Yes. Roboto Studio's office is at 2021 Fillmore St, San Francisco, CA 94115. Bay Area Next.js work includes Tray.ai in San Francisco and Slingshot Bio in Emeryville.
