Ascend

Ascend is a web design and AI automation studio in Sofia, Bulgaria, working since 2014. We build marketing websites, online stores and web applications for small and medium businesses in Bulgaria and the EU. Every site launches in Bulgarian and English, loads fast on phones, and comes with SEO and structured data set up from day one. Stores ship with Speedy and Econt delivery, ePay, EasyPay and Stripe payments. On top of that we add AI where it saves real work: RAG chatbots that answer from a company's own documents, document and invoice processing, lead triage, and workflow automation that connects CRMs, email and billing. AI projects start with a two-week proof of concept, so clients see it working before they commit. We quote fixed scope and a fixed price upfront, and for most projects we build a working demo before the first payment. Clients own the full source code. Recent work includes houzez.bg (real estate portal with an AI property assistant), Discard (NFC business card store and SaaS), Trend Report SS27 (event site with its own ticketing) and Mindset Pilates (studio site with online booking).
