Municipal websites without the municipal price tag

Your town needs a better website.
It doesn't need to cost $100,000.

Clawhammer builds accessible, easy-to-manage websites for small local governments, the public safety agencies that serve alongside them, and the small businesses that call them home — starting right here in North Carolina.

Your website has a deadline.

The rules are changing, and local governments need to be ready.

The U.S. Department of Justice now requires state and local governments to make their websites and online services accessible to people with disabilities, using WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the technical standard.

That means your town's site needs to be more than mobile-friendly and good-looking. Residents need to be able to actually use it — whether they're navigating with a keyboard, using a screen reader, or relying on other assistive technology.

That's where Clawhammer comes in. We build municipal websites with accessibility baked in from day one:

  • Accessible navigation
  • Accessible forms
  • Proper document structure
  • Keyboard support
  • Screen-reader compatibility
  • Clear, usable content
  • No accessibility widget slapped on the side
  • No $100,000 enterprise website
  • No 400-page manual to update a meeting notice

Just a modern municipal website built for your staff, your residents, and the requirements ahead.

Why Clawhammer

Built like public infrastructure. Priced like it isn't.

We only build for organizations that serve the public — so every product ships with the basics government sites usually skip.

Accessible by default

Every site ships meeting WCAG 2.1 AA out of the box — not bolted on after a complaint.

Built to be managed

Your staff can update pages, post notices, and add documents without calling us first.

Honest, flat pricing

No six-figure RFPs, no hourly surprises. You know the number before you sign anything.

Government-ready

Public notices, document libraries, and compliance basics are part of the platform, not an upsell.

Pricing

Municipal websites starting at $10,000.

One flat price for a complete, accessible, easy-to-manage site — built for your town, not a template with your logo pasted on. Public Safety and Business pricing available on request.
