Mise Custom Build
Don't want to template? We'll build it for you.
Custom Build is an optional service from Lumenworks LLC for owners who want a designed-for-you site. The Mise platform powers it underneath — so you still own your data, edit yourself afterwards, and pay the same flat monthly. The Build is a one-time fee on top.

What every Custom Build includes.
Custom design system
Palette, typography, photography direction, and layout logic — built for your restaurant, not pulled from a template library.
Content build
We rewrite your menu copy, structure your hours, write your About story, and clean up photo selection. Optional copy collaboration with your team.
Photography polish
We re-crop, color-correct, and optimize the photos you have. (Want a shoot? We refer to a network of restaurant-savvy photographers.)
Launch on rails
Domain pointed, SSL provisioned, search-engine submitted, social previews tested. You sign off; we go live within 48 hours of approval.
Handoff training
A 30-minute walkthrough of your admin so you and your team can edit confidently from day one. Plus a written runbook you can share with staff.
Build tiers

Book discovery callHow it fits
Build once. Run forever.
The Custom Build fee is a one-time charge for design and content work. After launch, you're on the Mise platform like everyone else: same admin, same monthly tier, same self-edit capability, same export rights.
Want the design refreshed in two years? That's a separate, smaller engagement — usually 30–50% of the original Build fee. We never hold your site hostage to keep paying us.
If you ever leave Mise, the platform export ships you the structured data. The custom design lives in code we built; we hand over the source so your next dev team has somewhere to start. (Most don't ever need to leave — the platform updates ship for free.)

No deck, no high-pressure pitch. If a Custom Build isn't the right call (sometimes self-serve really is enough), we'll say so.
