The person behind Guwii
Hi, I’m Alex.
Let’s make it happen.
Guwii is my independent business, based in South Wales. I help turn ideas into websites, products and bespoke systems—joining up the planning, design, code and tools behind them.
AI, automation, SEO and the ongoing help, too. You work directly with me, with someone familiar to come back to as things change.
It started with
MySpace layouts.
Websites for friends came next. Then freelance work, an agency and, since 2016, fully independent work.
I started playing with HTML and PHP in the early 2000s. I worked in tech and internal development, built sites on the side, and co-founded a web agency before going independent.
The part I’ve always liked is taking an idea all the way through: working out the structure, designing it, writing the code and getting it live. Brand, website, booking system, email setup — they all need to make sense together.
I still work that way. Some clients need a complete build. Others need someone who knows their website and can help as things change. I also work alongside agency teams.
Outside the client work
I build my own
things, too.
Website monitoring, a tool for developers, an app for climbers. These are my own products, from the identity and interface to the code underneath.
Scavo
Website monitoring, technical health and a clearer view of what needs fixing.
