Energy-anchored. Medical-center deep.

Houston runs on energy and the Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world. Your brand likely needs a B2B procurement portal for energy supply chains, branded research content for medical institutions, or a storefront for Houston's fast-growing multicultural DTC scene.

Brands here speak multiple languages and operate with confidence across cultures. We build the systems that match that reality.

Central Time. 8-hour overlap with our New York coverage.

Houston is one hour behind our New York office. We don't have a local Houston office. Our staffed HQs are in New York and Delhi, but we track your working day Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM CT.

Same-day Slack response. Weekly Friday demos. The clock below shows exactly where your business hours overlap with ours.

How a Houston engagement actually runs.

Every Houston engagement scopes into one of three shapes before you sign anything. You pick the shape that matches your stage, not a one-size-fits-all retainer. Each shape includes a fixed discovery phase, a named pod of team members, and a CT-aligned cadence.

Weekly Friday demo at 4 PM CT. Same-business-day Slack response Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM CT. Scope and timeline are locked in the quote; we never bill by rate card.

Why the Houston stack is energy-meets-research.

Houston hosts more Fortune 500 headquarters than any US city outside New York and Chicago. ConocoPhillips, Phillips 66, Halliburton, Marathon Oil, Occidental Petroleum, SLB (Schlumberger), and ExxonMobil's relocated HQ to Spring define the density. Every B2B brief here orbits procurement, audit, and supply-chain integration.

The Texas Medical Center sits beside that energy base as the largest medical complex on earth. 60 million square feet of clinical and research space. More than 145 languages spoken across the city pulls a dual-language commerce dimension into the same corridor.

So your Houston engagement is usually an energy-B2B or research-SaaS build with a multicultural-DTC surface, not one or the other in isolation.

§ FAQ · questions

Five answers for Houston founders.

Do you have an office in Houston?

Digital Heroes is a remote-first agency with HQs in New York and Delhi plus satellite offices in London, Sydney, and Lucknow. We work with Houston brands on CT hours, Monday through Friday, with same-day Slack response during overlap. We do not maintain a Houston-local office and we will not invent one.

What's a typical Houston engagement scope?

Three standard shapes. A Houston Shopify Plus or custom-platform build runs 8 to 16 weeks Discover-Design-Build-Launch-Optimize. A Houston web-design sprint runs 6 to 10 weeks for brands that already have a platform and need editorial-quality storefront, mobile, and brand system work. A Houston engineering retainer covers monthly senior developer hours with unused hours rolling over. We scope shape and price before any contract.

What kinds of Houston brands do you typically work with?

Our typical Houston fit is operator-led brands across energy and medical center, Gulf Coast B2B, and multicultural DTC. The shared thread is brands above $50K monthly revenue with a real growth roadmap and a named operator we can talk to weekly. We are wrong for pre-revenue concepts that have not validated product-market fit yet, and we will say so on the discovery call.

Will you fly to Houston for kickoff or quarterly reviews?

Yes. For retainer engagements we include quarterly in-person sessions in the Texas metro, either at the client location or at an agreed neutral spot. For one-off Shopify Plus or custom-platform builds we typically include a launch-week trip plus a 60-day post-launch review trip in scope. Travel sits inside the project budget on the original quote, not as a surprise line item.

How quickly can you scope a Houston project?

30-minute discovery call gets booked typically within a week of first contact. Written scope plus fixed-price quote returns within 48 hours of that call. For Shopify Plus replatforms or custom-platform builds we layer a 5 to 7 business day technical-discovery phase before the quote becomes binding, because the migration data model and integration surface area drive timeline more than visible design does.
