The business runs.You enjoy your life.

A Malta studio building for the age of AI search.

The ground is shifting to AI. We build for the world that is arriving: software, agents and websites, SEO, advertising and brands, made to be found, cited and chosen, and built to simplify life.

Tempra is a Malta studio that builds software, AI agents and websites, and runs SEO, advertising and brand work for companies of 10 to 100 people across Malta and the EU. One major service: we help our clients to succeed while enjoying life. Every project starts with a free two hour scoping session, and every quote is written before the work begins. Delivered in weeks. Tested under real load before it ships.

Tempered for what comes next.

01 · The idea

Tempering is the step most studios skip.

The controlled finish that makes the work hold when real load arrives. Forging is loud, and every shop claims it. Tempering is the patient work that turns a prototype into infrastructure.

Tempra

/ ˈtɛm·pra /

Italian noun

The temper of steel. Strengthening a finished thing through controlled heat and controlled cooling.

Tempered for what comes next.

03 · Who it is for

One major serviceWe help our clients to succeed while enjoying life.

We will help you enjoy what matters to you. We work with owners and managing directors of companies of 10 to 100 people in Malta and around the Mediterranean, who want the business to run without consuming them, and want it built by people who quote before they start and still answer the phone afterwards.

Not for you if you want a deck instead of working software, or a team that says yes to everything.

04 · Shipping versus tempering

SHIPPING

Release.

Code goes live. The demo runs. The dashboard loads. Then real load arrives, and the work either bends or breaks. Shipping is when the experiment ends.

TEMPERING

Strengthening.

The work returns to the heat, at lower temperature, under control, until brittleness gives way to durability. Tempering is when the experiment becomes infrastructure.

Nothing is impossible. The future is just shifting our mindset.

05 · Method

Five elements of tempering.

How we sell, how we scope, and how we tell the story.

01

Heat

Focused energy.

Real attention on the real problem.

02

Pressure

Real constraints.

A written scope, a quote agreed before we start, a date we keep.

03

Hold

Time, not speed.

The work sits in the heat as long as it takes.

04

Cool

Controlled descent.

Brought down at a measured pace.

05

Test

Load before launch.

We strike it before clients do.

06 · Work

Built, shipped, working today.

Not decks. Systems with names, doing a job every morning for a real business.

The hotel group. You are meeting the operations director. The angle is the funding, because they qualify for it.

07 · How we charge

Every quote is written before the work starts.

Scoping session

Free

Two hours, at the start of every engagement. We map what slows you down and what is worth building first.

Audit

Quoted by the hours it needs

Only when the scoping session shows one is needed. Quoted up front, agreed before it starts.

Software, agents and websites

Quoted per scope

Priced against a written scope. The quote holds. A changed scope gets a new quote, agreed before we continue.

SEO and GEO audit

€500

Where you stand with search engines and answer engines, and what to fix first.

SEO and GEO

€1,000 per ten pages, then €150 per page

Ongoing work to be found, cited and chosen.

Agent support and training

€50 per month

After launch. Your team keeps improving at using what we built, and small changes need no new quote.

Some agencies charge €3,000 to €5,000 for a scoping session. Ours is free, and it is where every project begins.

08 · Our promise

We scale with you.Your success is our success.

09 · Questions

What people ask before they call.

We start with a two hour scoping session, free of charge. We sit with you, map what slows the business down, and leave you with a clear picture of what is worth building first. If a deeper audit is needed, we quote it up front based on the hours it will take. Nothing is billed until you have agreed a quote.

Every piece of work is quoted before it starts, against a written scope. We do not publish a price list, because no two businesses need the same thing. If the scope changes, we stop, quote the difference, and continue only when you agree. SEO and GEO work has standard prices: the audit is €500, and ongoing work is €1,000 per ten pages, then €150 a page.

For bespoke work, you do. The code, the data and the accounts are yours from the day we hand over. For our off the shelf agents and apps, the code stays with Tempra and you use it under licence. Your data is always yours.

Yes, if it has an API or a connector we can reach, and almost everything does. Where there is no door, we build a bridge. Your team keeps the systems it already knows, and the new work sits around them.

Three weeks. A first agent takes one job, one owner on your team, and a measured test before it goes live. Larger builds are scoped and dated in the scoping session.

We stay. For agents, support and training run on a retainer of €50 per month, so your team keeps getting better at using what we built and small changes are handled without a new quote. Larger changes are scoped and quoted like any other work.

An SEO and GEO audit costs €500. Ongoing SEO and GEO work is €1,000 for the first ten pages and €150 for each page after that. GEO means being found and cited by answer engines such as ChatGPT and Google's AI answers, not only ranked by Google.

We scale with you. Our setup lets us charge below market prices while delivering better work, because you pay for the work and not for the overhead around it. Some agencies charge €3,000 to €5,000 for a scoping session. Ours is free, and it is where every project begins.
