Our bees

A web studio with an "anti-agency" approach.

Our hive works in an agile, lean, and efficient way that sets us apart from traditional agencies.

We stay competitive without the overhead of large offices and oversized permanent teams.

Our network of programmers, designers, and writers is handpicked for each project so we can deliver quality fast, at a fair price.

They collaborate with us so every detail lands. We also ship products like Stortech for self-storage management.

The story behind La Ruche.

It's been buzzing for a few years already

  1. 2007

    Where it all started

    At 12, I learned Photoshop and video editing. The passion for design and tech was already there, and I always wanted to learn more.

  2. 2010

    First ecommerce site

    At 15, I built my first website: an ecommerce store. To my surprise, it generated a few thousand dollars in revenue.

  3. 2016

    Sites for friends

    I started building websites for friends with businesses. Design and problem-solving clicked. It was clear I had found something special.

  4. 2018

    La Ruche is born

    I founded La Ruche to help businesses thrive online with sharp websites and a real digital presence. The buzz was only getting started.

  5. 2020

    Building the talent hive

    I couldn't do it all alone. A team of writers and designers came together, and we became a hive of productivity.

  6. 2021

    Bigger clients and projects

    La Ruche took on more complex mandates. We shipped sites that exceeded expectations, and the reputation followed.

  7. 2022

    Webflow Premium Partner

    We became a Webflow Premium Partner to ship editable, fast-to-deliver sites clients can grow. Webflow when it's the right tool, not by default.

  8. 2023

    Millions of visitors

    La Ruche generated millions of visitors for clients and helped countless businesses build a strong online presence.

  9. 2024

    Pushing further with web apps
