Firstfold

About

One person, one build system, and everything you can check.

You are being asked to pay $500 to someone you have not met. Here is who, what they have built, the company behind it, and how to verify each claim without taking anyone's word for it.

Who builds it

Nico Hayek, founder. Every first fold and every site is built by me, with a pipeline I wrote and an AI model doing the drafting, and reviewed by me before you see it. There is no sales team, which is why there are no sales calls; no reseller; and no account manager, which is why your emails are answered by the person doing the work. Code and history: GitHub.

The company

Firstfold is a service of PQ Project, a company registered in Lebanon, building sites for others since 2024. The terms name it and are governed by the law of the State of Florida, United States. Four things stand between your deposit and any risk: it is refunded in full if you do not approve the finished site; it is paid by card through Payoneer, so your card's own protections apply; the balance is due only after you have seen every page; and the domain is yours, at your registrar, from day one. We say where the company sits because you would look, and because the work below answers the question behind it.

If I am unavailable. Your domain is at your registrar and your site is a folder of plain files that runs on any host. On a maintenance plan you can ask for that folder any month; off a plan you already have it. Nothing about your site depends on me being reachable, and that is by design.

Five live sites and two case studies

Our own businesses first, so every number is one you can check today. Each site was measured on 2026-09-26 with the same test the build gate uses; open the site, then run Google's test yourself with the second link.

How to check

  • The work. The work page: the five live sites with today's scores, the rebuild, and three concept sites you can open on your phone.
  • The terms. One page, plain language, versioned by date. The refund is section 5; the company is section 1.
  • This site. Built on the same pipeline. Test it on Google; it should show four 100s.
  • The code. A public GitHub profile with years of history.
  • A person. Call or text 213-373-3555, weekdays 9 to 11 am Eastern; Outside those hours, leave a message or send a text and you get a reply within one business day. Or reply to any email from Firstfold. If you would rather hear a voice before anything else, ask for the 15-minute call.
