About

Behind Kape Digital there is one person,
not an agency.

I am Carlos Petersen, a freelance web developer in Costa Rica with less than a year in the market, but with the conviction that Costa Rican businesses deserve a digital presence as strong as anyone else's.

Kape Digital was born from seeing entrepreneurs with amazing products lose customers simply because they were not properly online. The name "Kape" — coffee in Tagalog — is a nod to the warmth of Costa Rican coffee and a metaphor for how I like to work: close, unhurried, and high quality.

"We digitize your business like a good coffee: tailored to you and built with quality."

Philosophy

How I work

Radical honesty

If something is not a good idea for your business, we will tell you even if it costs us a sale.

Close, not impersonal

You work directly with Carlos. Not with an anonymous team that changes on every project.

Quality over speed

We prefer doing things well rather than delivering something mediocre fast.

Training included

Every delivery comes with training. Your site is yours and you learn how to use it.
