Web design, apps & AI automation for Glasgow businesses
One Glasgow-focused team building websites, apps, AI automation and CRMs from our Paisley base. No templates, no four different suppliers, no disappearing after launch.
Four services, one team
Most Glasgow businesses stitch together a web agency, an app developer, an AI consultant and a CRM vendor. We're all four, so nothing falls through the cracks between suppliers.
Web Design & Development
Custom-built websites that load fast and convert, no page-builder template underneath.
- One-page & landing sites
- Small business websites
- E-commerce websites
- Booking & appointment sites
AI & Automation
Practical automation that removes repetitive work, not a chatbot bolted on for the sake of it.
- Workflow & task automation
- AI chat & lead capture assistants
- Automated reporting & alerts
- Email & follow-up automation
Apps & Software
Custom web apps and portals built around how your business runs.
- Customer & client portals

- Internal dashboards & tools
- Bespoke web applications
CRM & Systems
Bespoke CRMs connected to the rest of your stack.
- CRM setup & migration
- Sales pipeline systems
- Customer database & reporting
- Integrations with your existing tools
One local team, not four disconnected suppliers
We're based in Paisley and work with businesses across Glasgow and Scotland. You get one point of contact who understands your whole system, not a web developer who doesn't know your CRM and a CRM vendor who's never seen your site.
Straightforward, project-based pricing

Experience building for major UK brands
Outside client work, Billy also mentors aspiring developers internationally, including Derek in Uganda, helping them build the skills to start their own careers in tech.
Founder Billy McColl built CRM and internal support systems for major retail and hospitality brands, including Selfridges, Harrods, Itsu and Fortnum & Mason. The bug-tracking and support systems built for Selfridges, Itsu and Harvey & Brockless are still in active use today. He was also an integral part of the team behind the first major rebuild of S1Jobs, Scotland's iconic job board, in 15 years. That experience is what Blue Unicorn Digital is built on.
Other projects include Traceall Global.

A clear scope and design direction before any code gets written.
Build & test
Built, tested and refined with you reviewing progress along the way.
Launch & support
We stay reachable after launch, not just until the invoice clears.
Common questions
Straight answers, no sales spin.
Do you only work with Glasgow businesses?
Glasgow and Paisley are home, but we work with businesses across Scotland and remotely wherever needed.
Can you just build the website, not the other services?
Yes. Every service stands on its own. We only recommend combining them if it genuinely benefits your project.
How long does a typical project take?
It depends on scope. A discovery call gives us enough detail to set a realistic timeline before anything is agreed.
What happens after launch?
You can move to one of our hosting and support plans, or we hand everything over and step back. Your choice.
