/Next.js agency
Next.js websites and SaaS front ends with the craft of an award-winning studio.
Ecrin Digital is an independent design and engineering studio in France, founded in 2023 by Alexis Chân Gridel, a member of the Awwwards Young Jury 2026. We build marketing websites, SaaS front ends and headless CMS sites in Next.js and React, in custom code delivered to your own repository, for startups and businesses of every size.
(Next.js, React, TypeScript) (Sanity CMS) (France, fully remote) (From €500)
(Why Next.js)
(01)
Pages are rendered on the server or ahead of time and cached at the edge, so the first screen arrives quickly on a phone. We still measure every release: LCP, CLS and INP are part of the definition of done.
(02)
Clean URLs, real HTML, metadata, sitemaps and structured data are first-class. That is what Google and AI assistants read before they cite you.
(03)
Your marketing site, your dashboard and your React Native app can share TypeScript types, components and people. Hiring and handover stay simple.
(04)
It is open source and runs on Vercel or any Node host. You own the code, the content and the hosting account.
(What we build)
(01)
Launch sites and redesigns with real motion and 3D where it earns its place, scroll-driven storytelling and an editorial CMS your team can use.
(02)
Dashboards, onboarding flows and design systems in React and TypeScript, wired to your existing API or backend.
(03)
Sanity schemas modelled on your content, live preview and multilingual workflows, so pages ship without a developer.
(04)
Audits and fixes on existing Next.js sites: Core Web Vitals, rendering strategy, metadata, redirects and indexing.
(05)
Localised routes, hreflang, translated metadata and content workflows for sites that sell in several languages.
(06)
WebGL scenes with Three.js and React Three Fiber, motion with Motion or GSAP, built to stay smooth on mid-range phones.
(Proof)
/Next.js
Website for an AI contact-center platform, built in Next.js with Motion, Lenis and Three.js: a scroll-driven narrative where the interface becomes the story. We handled front-end development, motion and interaction engineering.
(Awwwards Honorable Mention) (CSS Winner Site of the Day) (Next.js, Motion, Lenis, Three.js)
/Headless CMS
Marketing site for an AI-native finance platform, shipped in 4 weeks with a Sanity headless CMS. This one runs on Astro, the framework we pick for content-first sites; the same Sanity and performance approach applies to Next.js. Development and motion by Ecrin Digital, design by Robin Kane.
(Shipped in 4 weeks) (5/5 CMO review on Clutch) (Astro, Sanity)
(Stack)
(Process)
15 minutes to understand the goal, the audience and the deadline. A written scope and a fixed quote follow within 48 hours.
Art direction, key screens and motion prototypes before any heavy build, so decisions are made on something real.
Weekly previews on a live URL. Content modelled in the CMS early so your team can start filling pages.
Performance and SEO checks, redirects from the old site, analytics, then go live.
Fixes are included for a few weeks, then an optional retainer for new pages and features.
(Pricing)
The same tiers as the rest of the studio. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
(01) Small projects
From €500
A page, a section, a performance or SEO fix, an upgrade of an existing codebase.
(02) Launch Sprint
€6,000 to €20,000
A complete website or a scoped product surface, designed, built and shipped in your repository. Usually 6 to 12 weeks.
(03) Engineering Retainer
€3,000 a month
Ongoing development after launch: new pages and features, updates, monitoring, releases.

A focused marketing site typically takes 4 to 8 weeks, a larger site or product surface 6 to 12 weeks. The Viewz site shipped in 4 weeks.
Both are excellent. We use Astro for content-first sites with little interactivity and Next.js when the site shares code with a React app or needs app-like features. We recommend one after the scoping call, not before.
Yes. We start with a short audit of the codebase, performance and SEO, then fix, extend or migrate step by step without breaking what already ranks.
Sanity by default, for its flexible content models and live preview. We also connect to an existing headless CMS through its API.
