Thread and Pixel

Based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Thread & Pixel is a small team (1-10 people) working exclusively with small and independent local businesses across neighborhoods such as the Southside, North Shore, and Riverside. Rather than serving national or enterprise accounts, the agency positions itself as a local partner, aiming to help Chattanooga-area business owners get found online, appear credible, and convert website visitors into customers. The service list covers web design, web development, branding, SEO, and low/no-code development. Web design work is custom rather than template-based, built around a client's brand and local market. Sites are built mobile-first, with a stated target of 90+ Google PageSpeed scores. SEO work focuses on local search and Google Maps visibility for Chattanooga-specific search terms, alongside a newer offering aimed at optimization for AI-driven search tools such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews, adjusting site structure, content, and data for these systems. The agency also offers AI integration, including chat assistants for lead capture and automation for bookings and follow-ups. Beyond launch, it provides monthly maintenance plans covering updates, backups, and security monitoring. Pricing is quoted upfront, with typical website projects ranging from roughly $1,500 to $6,000 depending on scope, and e-commerce or booking-system features priced above that range.
