Meet us

A generalist and a beagle.

This page is about the two of us. If you came looking for what I actually do, there's a shorter way round.

The team

Two of us, technically.

  • Tomislav "Tomo" Kaučić

    Design, code, and answering the email

    Tomislav Kaučić on paper, Tomo to everyone else. I design and build websites, stores and apps from Slavonski Brod, in eastern Croatia — the front end, the back end, and the drawing that happens before either. Most projects pass between three people before they ship; here it stays one conversation.

    Away from the screen: more ground coffee than is strictly advisable, a craft beer at the end of a good week, and a largely unwinnable argument in defence of Star Trek.

  • Lou

    Beagle, morale, interruptions

    Reports to nobody, has never been given a deadline, and has therefore never missed one. Core responsibilities include sleeping through calls, announcing the postman, and requesting a walk at precisely the wrong point in a deploy.

    Contributes nothing to the work and has a seat on this page anyway.

  • Inners — real estate management, Django and React
  • Multi-market Shopify builds for clients in the US and the UK

FounderPresent

Tomoweb

What you're reading right now. A registered Croatian sole proprietorship rather than a side project — invoicing in euros, dollars or pounds, and the thing my name is on when I take work directly.

  • Client work for agencies, founders and brands

The business

Tomoweb, the actual company.

It began in 2020 as a personal brand — a name to sign my own work with, one person and a handful of freelance projects. Five years later it became a real company.

Before you ask

The personal questions.

Tomo or Tomislav?
Tomislav on the invoice, Tomo everywhere else. Nobody's called me Tomislav since school, and it'd feel a bit weird if you started.
Which languages do you work in?
Croatian and English, both comfortably. Most of my work has been in English for years, so that's the default — unless you'd rather not.
Do you work with clients outside Croatia?
Mostly, actually. Stores and apps for clients in the US, the UK and across Europe — UK, Germany, Slovenia, Estonia. Remote is the normal case here, not the exception.
Do you still teach?
Not at the moment. I ran an agency internship programme for five years, tutoring more than twenty interns along the way, then spent 2022 to 2024 as an external collaborator at FERIT. I've taken a break since, but I still enjoy it — if the right opportunity comes along, I'd happily get back to it.
Who is Lou?
A beagle, and the other half of the team. Head of morale, zero lines of code.

Got a project?
Let's talk.

A new build, a store that needs rescuing, or agency overflow — tell me what you're working on. I read every message myself.
