Cover the studio. The hooks are real.

Press kit and pitch hooks for journalists, podcast hosts, and industry analysts covering web development, AI search, federal contracting, or SDVOSB veteran-owned businesses.

About the studio

ThatDevPro is the dedicated content-first web studio brand of Joseph W. Anady, a disabled U.S. Army veteran and veteran-owned-studio founder. The studio specializes in builds engineered to rank on Google search, AI Overviews, and to be cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity. ThatDevPro operates from owned Debian + nginx infrastructure in Cassville, Missouri, with zero Cloudflare or third-party CDN dependency.

Story hooks for press

The 14-tier engine optimization framework

Joseph has open-sourced a 14-tier SEO + AEO + AIO + GEO framework that maps every surface a modern site needs to rank across traditional search and AI assistants. The framework is in production on 130+ sites across the studio's hosting network and is, to our knowledge, among the first publicly documented full-stack visibility frameworks.

Veteran-owned studio in federal web contracting

Federal agencies are still buying web development from non-veteran-owned offshore agencies. Joseph is a service-disabled U.S. Army veteran with Section 508 and WCAG 2.2 AA implementation experience; verify current federal registration and certification in the official registries. The angle: why the federal set-aside system isn't reaching the small studios it was designed for.

The post-Cloudflare web

ThatDevPro builds on owned bare-metal infrastructure, no Cloudflare, no Vercel, no third-party CDN. The argument for this stance is technical (latency control, no third-party trust chain) and political (centralization risk). Contrarian position worth covering.
