Our Story

HyperArts was founded in 1998 with a simple belief: organizations doing important work deserve websites that actually work. What started as a small web design studio in the San Francisco Bay Area has grown into a trusted WordPress agency with a portfolio spanning scientific research institutions, nonprofits, universities, and businesses of all sizes. Over nearly three decades, we’ve built hundreds of websites and watched our clients grow — and we’ve grown right alongside them.

Who We Work With

We’ve spent decades learning the unique needs of the organizations we serve. Nonprofits navigating grant cycles and donor-friendly design. Scientific research teams at Berkeley Lab and beyond who need sites that handle complex data and API integrations. Educational institutions requiring faculty directories, event systems, and accessibility compliance. And Bay Area businesses competing in some of the most dynamic local markets in the country.

Our Approach

We’re a boutique agency, which means you work directly with our senior designers and developers — not account managers or offshore teams. Every project starts with a genuine discovery process, because we believe the best websites come from understanding your organization deeply, not just your brief. We’re collaborative by nature, transparent throughout, and honest when something isn’t working.

Our Team

HyperArts is a small, senior-level team with design, development, and project management expertise. There are no junior developers learning on your project and no offshore handoffs. Our team brings expertise across WordPress development, UX design, SEO, accessibility compliance, API integrations, and WordPress Multisite — built up over decades of real-world projects, not certifications.
