CHICAGO, IL / CENTRAL TIME
Web, app, and software development in Chicago
N.O.D.E. is headquartered in Evanston, just north of Chicago, which makes Chicagoland our home market. We build websites, mobile apps, and custom software for Chicago businesses, and we offer the SEO that gets them found as an add-on to any plan.
Our parent company, Nouvos Solutions, builds software for transportation, orders, and warehouses. Chicago is the center of the country's freight rail network and one of its largest logistics markets, so we know the operations side of the businesses we build for here, not only the marketing side.

Frequently asked questions
Where is N.O.D.E. located?
Our headquarters is at 909 Davis Street, Suite 500, Evanston, IL 60201, on Chicago's North Shore. We serve businesses across Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.
Do you work with small businesses in Chicago?
Yes. The subscription plans are built for small and midsize businesses: $300 per month on Member, $500 on Growth, and $900 on Pro, with a monthly credit allowance for web, design, and marketing work. SEO, GEO, and AEO are add-ons.
Can you help my Chicago business show up in local search?
Yes. Local SEO covers your Google Business Profile, consistent business details across the web, and pages for the neighborhoods and suburbs you serve, which is what drives map results for searches like "near me".
Do we need to meet in person?
No, but you can. We work in person across Chicagoland, and most work runs through video calls and the N.O.D.E. platform, where you brief work, review it, and approve it.
