01Accountability
Founder on every call.
The person scoping the work is the same person reviewing the PRs and answering when something goes sideways during a Q4 push. No farming out to people you'll never meet.

01 / The status quo
Hiring Shopify help shouldn't feel like
filing a ticket.
Once your store grows past simple, the gig-based way of hiring devs starts to crack — and you feel it on every launch.
Tickets that go cold
Three-day reply times. Devs you never meet. The thing you needed shipped last week is still in 'review.'
Themes barely customised
Surface-level 'experts' reskin a Dawn fork and call it custom. You inherit code that breaks the next time you touch it.
No one owns outcomes
Hourly devs ship pixels. Nobody is on the hook for conversion, performance, or whether the integration actually works in prod.
A new face every quarter
You explain your stack to someone new every quarter. They read it back to a dev you'll never meet. Telephone, but slower.
02 / Why operators pick Klaver
Six things we do differently.
None of these are "values on a wall." Each one is a structural choice we made about how this studio runs — and why partners stay with us for years.
02Craft
Senior-only team.
No juniors learning on your storefront. Everyone touching your code has shipped Shopify Plus at scale. We stay small on purpose so we can stay senior.
03Measurable
Outcomes, not hours.
We scope by deliverable, not timesheet. Conversion lift, page-speed targets, integration uptime — we tie work to numbers your CFO actually cares about.
04Continuity
Same team, start to finish.
Strategy, design, and engineering under one roof. The team that scopes the work is the team that ships it — and the team that maintains it on retainer.
05Long haul
Built like infrastructure.
Code reviewed, documented, performance-tested. The next person who touches your store — even if it isn't us — should thank us.
06Global
Three time zones, one studio.
US, EU, and Gulf coverage with senior-team overlap on every working day. Launch windows, on-call for retainer partners, and Friday-night Q4 cutovers without the hand-off chaos.
None of this is hourly work. It's a partnership.

One studio.
Every layer of your stack.
From a polished theme refactor to a custom OMS handling 20K orders a day — we build, integrate, and maintain the things your store actually depends on.

05 / Why founder-led matters
You hire us, you get us.
Klaver is founder-led on purpose. The person on the strategy call is the same person scoping the work, reviewing the PRs, and answering at 9pm when something goes sideways during a Q4 push.
That's a structural choice. We will never grow into a 200-person agency where you get bumped to a junior PM after the contract closes. We stay small, hand-pick our partners, and ship like the brand is our own.

08 / What partners say
Operators who don't go back.
"We came from a marketplace dev. The difference is night and day. Klaver actually owns outcomes — they made me look like a hero to my CEO."

Anaïs B.
Head of Ecommerce · Halcyon · Paris
"Three other shops told us our integration was impossible without Plus+. Klaver shipped it in two sprints on standard Plus. Ops sleeps better."

"Founder-led is real here. The person who scoped the work is the person on the call eight months later. Whole team feels like an extension of ours."

09 / Common questions
The questions we hear most.
For the full list — engagement, pricing, process, technical, legal — see the FAQ page.
See all FAQsHow is this different from hiring a freelancer or a marketplace dev?
Task-based hiring sells you hours. We sell you a partner. Same senior team across every engagement, founder-led calls, and accountability for outcomes — not just time billed.
How fast can we start?
Discovery call within 48 hours. For projects, kickoff is typically 1–2 weeks out. Retainer slots open at the start of each month — we book 4–8 weeks ahead during peak season.
Where are you based and what time zones do you cover?
Founder-led from Europe, with senior team across the US, EU, and Gulf. Standard coverage 9am–9pm CET, with on-call for retainer partners during launches and Q4.
Do you sign NDAs and DPAs?
Yes — both standard. We can sign your paper or send ours within a day. GDPR-compliant by default; SOC 2 alignment available on Plus Partner engagements.
