Questions we hear a lot.
Plain answers. No jargon.
What is Mahiri?
Mahiri is your digital foundation, operated for you. We keep the site design and content you already have, and rebuild everything underneath it — domain, DNS, email, security, compliance, AI visibility — on a modern foundation we run day to day. One team, one point of contact: Mira, at hello@mahiri.ai. Learn more →
Is Mahiri a web agency?
More than one. A web agency designs and hands off a site. Mahiri keeps running it — the domain, DNS, email authentication, security, and compliance underneath the site, plus the site itself — for one flat monthly rate. Learn more →
Why “Your site. New foundation.”?
We don’t touch your brand or your content. We rebuild the foundation underneath your site so it’s fast, secure, and visible to AI search — and we keep running it. Learn more →
Is Mahiri right for my business?
Mahiri fits established organizations — roughly 5 to 100 staff, B2B or B2C, churches and nonprofits welcome — who already have a site people know and don’t want to lose it in a rebuild. If you don’t have a site yet, or need e-commerce checkout and inventory, Mahiri isn’t the right fit today. Learn more →
What if my site was built by a developer, agency, or employee who’s no longer around?
That’s exactly the situation Mahiri is built for. We take over the domain, hosting, and management of the site you already have — no need to track down whoever built it or figure out the old hosting login. Learn more →
What if I already have a website?
We mirror it. Your current site stays live while we rebuild it on the new foundation with the same design and content, then move your domain over when you approve — usually no downtime. Learn more →
Do you work with churches and nonprofits?
Yes — churches and nonprofits are a core fit, at a $99/month rate. Learn more →
Who's already using Mahiri?
Businesses like Praegis (praegis.ai, 94/A) and Win Win Advisors (winwinadvisors.com, 92/A) — both had their sites mirrored onto the new foundation, domain, DNS, email, and security run as one operated foundation, graded on Mahiri's own free scan. Our own site, mahiri.ai, runs on the same foundation and scores 95/A. Learn more →
How long does the whole process take?
Your free scan takes 60 seconds. Your proposal and a mockup of your own site arrive the same business day you request them. Once you approve, your site launches in 1–3 business days. Learn more →
What information do I need to provide?
Not much — your logo, a short description of your business, any specific photos or content, and access to your domain. We handle the rest. Learn more →
What technology does Mahiri use?
A modern static-site foundation (Astro) hosted on Cloudflare’s global network — fast, secure, and not dependent on any CMS subscription or plugin stack. Learn more →
What happens after I request a scan?
We show you where your 8 pillars stand today — domain, DNS, email, website, performance, security, compliance, AI visibility — then send a free proposal and mockup of your own site on the new foundation, before you pay anything. Learn more →
Do I need to do anything technical myself?
No. You approve; we build, migrate, and configure everything — domain, DNS, email, hosting. Learn more →
What’s the free scan?
An automated check across all 8 pillars of your digital foundation — domain, DNS, email, website, performance, security, compliance, AI visibility. Takes 60 seconds, no sign-up required. Learn more →
Is the mockup really free, with no obligation?
Yes. Free scan, free proposal, free mockup of your own site on the new foundation — no payment, no commitment, until you decide to move forward. Learn more →
How is the mockup built?
We mirror your existing site — same design, same content — onto the new foundation, so you can see exactly what you’d be getting before you pay. Learn more →
What happens if I don’t like the mockup or decide not to move forward?
Nothing happens — there’s no obligation and no charge for the scan, proposal, or mockup. Learn more →
Will I see changes before they go live?
Yes. Every change — including the initial mockup — is approved before it goes live. Agent-built. Human-approved. Learn more →
Who is Mira?
Mira from Mahiri (AI agent) is your one point of contact — email hello@mahiri.ai with anything, from a content change to a question about your bill. No dashboard, no ticket system, no platform to learn. Learn more →
Who is responsible when something breaks?
We are. We run the whole foundation — domain, DNS, email, security, and the site itself — so there’s one place to go: Mira, at hello@mahiri.ai. Learn more →
How do I request changes?
Email hello@mahiri.ai in plain language — no technical specs needed. Learn more →
What if my request is outside my plan’s normal scope?
We never turn a request away without looking at it. Tell Mira what you need — we’ll scope it and tell you plainly whether it’s included, needs a quick quote, or is a bigger project, then get moving with your OK. Learn more →
How fast are routine changes made?
Foundation includes 1 change request a month, Operate includes 4, Command includes 8 plus integrations — routine change requests are typically completed in 1–2 business days once the details are confirmed. Mira works through details and approvals with you first, and every change is approved before it goes live. Learn more →
Do I own my site?
Yes. You own your domain and your content. If you ever leave Mahiri, we hand off the built files — no lock-in. Learn more →
Will I lose my design, content, or search rankings?
No. We mirror the site you already have — same design, same content — and keep your existing URLs, redirecting anything that moves, so what customers and search engines already know carries over. Learn more →
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. We configure your existing domain, or help you register a new one — and it stays registered in your business’s name. Learn more →
What if I leave?
Cancel anytime. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle — you won’t be charged for the next month, and the current month’s fee isn’t refunded. Your domain stays registered in your name, and the site becomes your property once it’s paid for. Learn more →
What happens if I cancel?
Cancel anytime. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle — you won’t be charged for the next month, and the current month’s fee isn’t refunded. Your site stays live through the end of the current cycle, and we’ll help with any transition you need. Learn more →
What are Mahiri’s plans?
Foundation ($49/month, single-page site, 1 change request/month), Operate ($149/month, multi-page site, 4 change requests/month — our lead plan), Command ($349/month, 8 change requests/month plus integrations), and Custom for larger, truly custom needs. Churches and nonprofits: $99/month. Learn more →

A multi-page site plus 4 change requests a month — design, build, hosting on Cloudflare, mobile optimization, AI crawler access and schema markup, a contact form, performance monitoring, and analytics. Full list on the pricing page. Learn more →
Is migration of my existing site free?
Yes — migrating your existing site onto the new foundation is $0, included with your plan. Learn more →
What if I need something bigger than my plan covers?
One-off builds are available outside the monthly plans: a $500 refresh, $2,500 restructure, or $8,500 full build, scoped with a quote first. Learn more →
Is there a contract?
Month-to-month. No long-term commitment required. Learn more →
Do you offer nonprofit or church pricing?
Yes, $99/month. Learn more →
How does Mahiri secure my site?
Security headers, HTTPS everywhere, and ongoing monitoring — fewer ways in, and someone watching. Learn more →
What about my email — can it be spoofed?
We set up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC and take you to full enforcement, so your mail arrives and impostors sending as your domain get rejected. Learn more →
What compliance pages does my site need?
Standard pages — privacy policy, consent, accessibility statement — done properly, not left blank. Learn more →
Will AI search find my business after Mahiri builds my site?
Yes. Every Mahiri site is configured to welcome AI crawlers — ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Claude, Perplexity — with structured data, schema markup, and llms.txt. Learn more →
What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?
The work of making your site readable and surfaceable by AI search systems, not just Google — robots.txt configuration, structured data (LocalBusiness, FAQPage schema), and llms.txt. AEO and SEO are complementary; Mahiri handles both. Learn more →
How is this different from SEO?
Traditional SEO optimizes for Google’s crawler. AEO optimizes for AI assistants — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity — that are increasingly how people find local businesses. We do both. Learn more →
Will Mahiri guarantee my business shows up in ChatGPT answers?
No one can guarantee placement in any AI assistant’s answer. What we guarantee is that your site is technically visible and readable to AI crawlers — the rest depends on your content and market. Learn more →
Does Mahiri have a partner program?
Yes — three ways to partner. Bring the client as a sales agent, bring the ongoing relationship as an operator, or bring the craft as a designer. Mahiri’s agents run the technical delivery underneath whatever you bring. Learn more →
How are partners paid?
Commissions on what you bring and build — no published rate table. Every partnership is scoped to what you actually bring, in a conversation with Mira and Van. Learn more →
