🔐 Locksmith · Coburg, Melbourne
Your Friendly Local Locksmith in Melbourne's North
Research Phase
Before writing a single line of code, our research agent studied Larry the Locksmith — their current website, social presence, reviews, team, and services. Here's what stood out.
Mobile service covering 23+ named suburbs from Coburg to Melbourne CBD — Larry comes to you with a fully equipped mobile workshop
Operates 7 days a week, 8:30am-7:00pm — including weekends, which is when most lockouts happen
Reviews consistently mention '20 minutes' response time and praise Larry by name — genuinely personal service, not a faceless call centre
Design Phase
Every design decision was intentional — informed by the research, not pulled from a template library.
Visual Direction
Friendly, approachable design with animated sections, service icons, and a warm personality that matches 'Larry' — a real person you'd trust with your keys.
Design Rationale
The name 'Larry the Locksmith' is inherently personable — it's a person, not a corporation. The design amplifies that with animated sections and a tone that feels like your reliable local tradie, not a generic 'locksmith near me' template.
Build Phase
Site Architecture
// Next.js App Router
Methodology
Spark (research agent) scraped Larry the Locksmith's current website, Google reviews, social media, and business listings. Every piece of real data — team names, service pricing, business hours, unique details — was extracted into a structured profile.
Based on the research, a bespoke design direction was created specifically for Larry the Locksmith. No templates — the typography, color palette, layout patterns, and visual effects were all chosen to match this business's personality and industry.
Pixel (design agent) built the entire 6-page Next.js application from scratch — 3 custom components, real content from the research phase, App Router with proper routing, and production-grade code.
Sentinel (QA agent) verified the build compiles cleanly, checked for placeholder content, validated all routes render correctly, and confirmed the design is unique (not recycled from another demo).
Additional Notes
Research sourced from larrythelocksmith.com.au, Google reviews, and social media profiles. All business data — services, team, pricing, hours — extracted and verified from public sources.
More from the experiment
This case study is part of the AI Web Lab — a 30-day experiment where AI agents build bespoke websites for real Melbourne businesses. Every site is researched, designed, and built from scratch by a team of five specialist AI agents. The full methodology, code, and results are documented transparently.
This study is being prepared for publication as part of a research paper on AI-assisted web development at scale.
We built Larry the Locksmith's site in 4 minutes. Same process, same quality — a custom website built for you, not a template.
