LucidCircus is a digital development company especially focused on serving founders looking for start-to-finish support.

We take your concept and bring it to life in a functional, high-quality digital product, and work together long-term to drive visibility, credibility, and profitability.

Whatever you dream up, we can handle it. (Trust us, we’ve been doing this since… 1994.)

It’s Philadelphia, 1994. Web 1.0.

A bunch of art school kids get together, handcrafting websites in a text editor with tables and a handful of hacks.

Flash forward to ‘98, and we’re a full-service design agency, expanding into animation and print design..

Enter: the dot-com bubble burst. We survive by going fully remote. Land contracts creating digital experiences for companies like AOL and Netscape.

Over the next 15 years, we stay at the forefront of digital development, design, and marketing. Today, we focus on bringing all those pieces together into a soup-to-nuts process, taking digital concepts and architecting, designing, building, and marketing them.

Client stories

Expertise. Partnership. Results.

Josh Okun Associate Director at We Are RALLY

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Ezra and the LucidCircus team for over five years—and for good reason. They epitomize what you’d want in a digital agency partner.

With deep expertise in web design, development, UX, strategy, security, and digital marketing, they don’t just execute—they advise, strategize, and innovate, always looking out for our best interests.

Time and again, they’ve delivered fantastic results, making them an invaluable partner I highly recommend.

Client stories

A reliable partner for growth.

Paroma Sen VP of Corporate Marketing of Astera Labs

I've worked with Ezra and the LucidCircus team for almost 2 years now. We brought them on after I joined a newly public company and revamped the entire website, replacing the old vendor with LucidCircus. I was impressed by the team's technical competence, delivery to promise, guidance on all aspects, and willingness to work with us through our stages of growth. We are very happy with their continued service, and would recommend them to anyone looking for these skillsets.

Client stories

Clear solutions. Real results.

Jamie Harper CEO of Level Education Group

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Ezra Cohen and the LucidCircus team as trusted technical consultants supporting Level Education Group. Their leadership and deep technical expertise have been instrumental in improving and optimizing our CE4Less, NurseCE4Less, and CEU Creations websites.

What stands out most about LucidCircus is their ability to translate complex technical challenges into clear, actionable solutions that drive measurable results. I highly recommend Ezra and the team at LucidCircus to any organization looking for a reliable partner who can deliver both strategic insight and hands-on execution in web and technology projects.

Client stories

Efficient and dependable.

Tracy Accettullo Director Demand Generation at Torri

I worked with Ezra on a website migration project from HubSpot to Wordpress. He was very knowledgable and easy to work with. The work was done with speed and precision. All our questions were answered, our changes mid-project were taken care of, and we were given training and a detailed playbook. I would highly recommend Ezra.

Client stories

Cutting edge of emerging technologies.

Dwayne Flinchum President at ScientificBrands

Ezra has been a digital leader and advisor for my former firm, IridiumGroup, and for other organizations like the Child Mind Institute, where I led marketing and communications.

For over 20 years, Ezra has remained at the cutting edge of emerging technologies, web development, UX/CX, SEO, and a leader in the full suite of integrated digital marketing products. I recommend Ezra without reservation to present smart insights and deliver principled, fair-priced solutions.

Client stories

On time. On budget. On brand.

Brian Weisfeld Founder of The Startup Squad

They handle the build and maintenance of my website, deal with any technical issues, maintenance issues, and upgrades, and just do anything I need to do on my site, including newsletters and SEO. They can do it all.

They're also extremely responsive. If I ask a question at night, the answer is waiting for me in the morning. Their customer service is great, and they don't nickel and dime me asking questions. They're a resource there to help.

Client stories

Built for million-dollar growth.

Salvatore Salpietro Cofounder of ISEBOX

We had a pretty clear idea of the structure of our platform. I literally sketched it out with black marker and paper on the floor. When it came to hiring a developer, I was looking for somebody who could take that and understand it.

Understanding the vision is critical. It can be difficult as humans to convey what's in your mind to another, but LucidCircus was able to take what we imagined and make something real out of it.

The quality of their work shows in the results. When we started ISEBOX, we were unfunded and completely bootstrapped, and we reached a million dollars in annual revenue on a platform that LucidCircus built and maintained for us.

Client stories

I was instantly impressed.

David Grew Founder of PRIMR

As a nontechnical first time founder bootstrapping a SaaS startup, I was not prepared to bring on an internal team for software development. When I met with LucidCircus I was instantly impressed by their keen ability to listen and learn, and also define the guardrails to guide product development through the earliest stages.

They standout for their kindness, patience and lack of arrogance when dealing with a nontechnical person. As we grew, I began to understand how they built PRIMR to be scalable from the start, saving me money and time. All this while navigating the complex regulatory environment of HIPAA privacy protections. I highly recommend!

Our impact

We rise lifting others

DIVERSITY & INCLUSION

Our work is better because of the diversity of our talents and our clients.

We’re not just digital strategists, designers, or developers. We’re people first and foremost. We believe that diverse teams produce better results. That's why our teams are made of people with different backgrounds, genders, races, cultures, religions, abilities, and sexual orientations.

We strive to work with clients who bring a wide variety of business challenges, across geographies and across industries. From working with mental health organizations or the newest SaaS products to ensuring their digital homes are accessible to everyone, diversity and inclusion are pillars of our business.

Have a digital concept in mind? We can build that.
