The problem
THE INDUSTRY
IS BROKEN.
Traditional web agencies were built for a slower, more expensive world. They charge you to wait. Then they charge you to exist. We built a better model.

NO FEES.
NO MIDDLEMEN.
The Internet Computer Protocol is not a buzzword. It's the only blockchain network that hosts full websites and applications on-chain — replacing AWS, Cloudflare, and every other server in between.

Traditional cloud servers charge $30–$150/month. On ICP, storage and compute are covered by the network. At $50/month average, that's $600/year — $3,000 back in your pocket over five years.
FAQ
COMMON QUESTIONS.
How much does a website cost with Apex Architects?
We offer three tiers. Simple at $750: a one-page website with contact form, mobile responsive design, basic SEO, and a .xyz domain included for the first year. Apex at $1,500: up to four pages, custom design, lead capture, SEO-ready pages, and no hosting fees ever. Architect at $4,500+: full applications with user accounts, CRM panels, custom backend logic, and integrations like Stripe and Calendly. All plans are built on the Internet Computer Protocol — zero ongoing hosting costs from day one.
How long does it take to build a website?
Simple one-page websites are delivered in 2–3 business days. Standard Apex websites with up to four pages are delivered in 5–7 business days. Architect-tier applications with custom backend logic typically take 2–4 weeks depending on complexity. Every project includes one revision round before final delivery. Rush delivery is available on request. We move this fast because our entire build process is AI-powered — what takes a traditional agency 8–12 weeks takes us under a week.
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes. If you are not satisfied with the design after the first revision round, we rebuild it at no additional charge. We offer this guarantee because our AI-powered process gives us the confidence to stand behind every deliverable. We have never needed to invoke it, but it exists so you can buy with complete confidence.
What is Internet Computer Protocol hosting?
The Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) is a blockchain network developed by the DFINITY Foundation that hosts websites and applications fully on-chain, eliminating traditional cloud servers like AWS or Google Cloud entirely. Websites hosted on ICP are tamper-proof, censorship-resistant, and scale automatically. Because there is no traditional hosting contract, clients pay zero monthly hosting fees, ever. At typical hosting costs of $25–$100 per month, this saves clients $300–$1,200 per year, every year.
What makes Apex Architects different from other Montreal web agencies?
Four things. First, we build with AI, delivering premium websites in 5–7 days at a fraction of traditional agency cost. Second, we build on ICP, which eliminates hosting fees permanently. Third, we are one of the only agencies in Montreal offering AEO optimization. Fourth, our Apex Radar service gives you automated competitive intelligence that traditional agencies simply do not offer.
Will my website be optimized for AI search?
Every Apex and Architect plan includes an AEO starter audit. We check your schema markup, FAQ structure, llms.txt access, and run a live citation test in ChatGPT and Perplexity. If you want ongoing AEO management (content written, schema maintained, monthly citation reports) that is available as a separate retainer starting at $500/month.
