- Complete enhancement requests for existing customer websites, ranging from small changes to more complex customizations or design improvements

Otta's take
Xav Kearney
CTO of Otta
Following the wave of digital transformation over recent years, accelerated by the pandemic period, it’s more important than ever for businesses to have a strong online presence. For the growing number of SMBs and solo entrepreneurs, however, creating a high quality website can prove difficult - and costly. So a market has opened up for on-demand web design and site building, and B12 is one of the companies within it.
B12 promises to launch personally designed SEO-optimized websites for SMBs within 30 days using its AI-assisted team of designers and copywriters. B12 will then help the owners manage email marketing and automation, online payments, and invoicing. In this way, it offers the easy access of WIX and Wordpress without the headache of designing and optimizing it oneself, and with far more integrated business support.
So the 150,000+ signups to the platform should come as no surprise - same as the company’s rapid growth over recent years. With this strong product foundation, and plans to build it out further as it pulls in more funding, B12 is making strong headway in a huge market niche.
