You’ve probably seen it on our site. Maybe in an email. Maybe we even said it on a call.
“We’re tech agnostic.”
Cool. But…what does that actually mean?
The Short Version: We Don’t Force a Fit
Some web agencies are Shopify-only. Or WordPress-only. Or obsessed with that one JS framework they use on every single project.
House of Giants isn’t like that. We don’t believe in the one size fits all approach, because the brands we partner with? They’re not one size fits all either.
“Tech agnostic” means we pick the right tool for your business, not the one that’s easiest for us.
The Long Version: Tech Should Serve the Problem, Not Be the Problem
Let’s say you’re running a growing QSR brand. You’ve got multiple locations, and a POS-integrated site builder that’s starting to feel like a straitjacket. It’s slow. Can’t scale. And every time you try to run a promo, it breaks the mobile layout.
A lot of dev shops would push you straight into a tool they know best. Headless CMS, Next.js, some snazzy frontend framework they’ve already got templated out.
But what if that’s not what you need?
Maybe your content team wants easier publishing tools. Maybe your backend ops team needs real time order syncing. Maybe you just need a custom WordPress site with a killer menu and embedded ordering without bloating the stack.
Being tech agnostic means we listen first, build second.
We treat your needs like a blueprint, not a compatibility checklist.
What That Looks Like in Practice
It means we’ve built:
- WordPress sites that scale for national QSR brands.
- React-based platforms for startups juggling real-time data and customer dashboards.
- Custom ordering flows that don’t rely on templates or subscriptions.
- Simple, beautiful CMS interfaces tailored to actual team workflows.
And we’ve done it all without locking anyone into systems they didn’t choose.
The Result? Better Long-Term Value
You get performance, scalability, and usability, without the baggage. No recurring fees for features you don’t use. No re-platforming nightmare two years down the road. Just clean, custom solutions built to grow with you.
Because tech should solve your problem, not create new ones.
TL;DR: We Build Around You. Not Around a Platform.
When you work with House of Giants, you don’t get a pre-baked stack.
You get a partner that asks why, how, and what’s next, then builds a solution that fits like a glove.
