I already have a Squarespace — why would I pay you?
Most Squarespace sites look like every other Squarespace site, which is the first thing a regular notices about yours. Mitra sites look like the cafe. They load faster, rank higher on local SEO, and don't need you to log in. If you're happy with what you have, stay — we're expensive.
Why a monthly fee instead of a one-time build?
Because cafes change. Menus, hours, seasonal lots, new staff. A one-time build rots in six months. The fee covers running the site, not just building it — same way you pay your accountant monthly instead of "one time."
What happens if I want to leave?
We hand over the full HTML + DNS + domain. You own everything from day one. The only thing you lose is us. No lock-in, no proprietary CMS, no ransom.
Why only 6 clients?
Because we're two people, and we refuse to scale into a template shop. When we outgrow 8 cafes we'll hire one person, not spin up a sales team. Small studio, slow growth, on purpose.
Do you work with cafes outside Singapore / KL / Indonesia?
Not yet. The studio is physically between Singapore and Bandung, so regional time zones let us turn around edits within a workday. If you're in Bangkok, Saigon, Manila — get in touch, we're watching.
What about franchise chains?
No. We only work with independently owned cafes — single location, or at most 3 locations under the same family. Not because we dislike chains, because we can't make their voice feel personal and we don't want to try.
Do you do other things — restaurants, bars, bakeries?
Occasionally we take on bakeries or natural-wine bars, but only through cafe referrals. Restaurants no — different rhythm, different economics.
