Established in 2009, Black Antelope is a digital creative agency focused on complex, high-impact work. We design and build custom digital platforms that prioritize performance, accessibility, and long-term sustainability. Based in Seattle and Sacramento, we partner with organizations that need thoughtful solutions, not templates.
We specialize in Drupal and WordPress, delivering CMS platforms with custom workflows, modular architecture, multi-site and multilingual capabilities, and seamless content and data migrations. Beyond CMS, we build custom web applications, APIs, and integrations that solve real operational challenges.
Accessibility is a core discipline, not a checkbox. We have deep experience supporting public sector clients, including Washington State agencies such as the Washington State Department of Commerce. We integrate accessibility into design systems, engineering practices, and QA from the start.
We also bring extensive higher education experience, with clients including UC Berkeley and Seattle University. We understand decentralized governance, complex stakeholder environments, and the need for flexible, scalable platforms.
We are senior full-stack engineers, and work across modern frameworks including .NET, Laravel, Symfony, Django, Node, React, and Vue, allowing us to choose the right approach for each project. We regularly handle complex integrations, including Salesforce, HubSpot, and other enterprise systems, along with e-commerce, geospatial applications, and enterprise search.
We pair strong engineering with SEO and emerging GEO capabilities, ensuring what we build is discoverable across both search engines and AI-driven experiences.
AI is actively integrated into our workflows, accelerating design, development, testing, and content production while maintaining a high bar for quality.
We do our best work with organizations tackling meaningful challenges. If you need a partner who can handle complexity and deliver with precision, we should talk.
