Real prices. Scoped on purpose.

Pick the two levers that matter most, creativity, speed or cost certainty, and you get a real starting price, timeline and scope. Each project has three separately costed configurations, so a lower number always means less work included, never the same promise for less. Prices are in Canadian dollars before tax, and third-party costs are quoted separately.

The real cost of a project is not the invoice. It is the months spent building something that solved the wrong problem, or the wrong version of the right one. Scoping on purpose is how you avoid that.

Automate what should scale. Humanize what should matter.

The trade-off

Pick what matters most. We protect it.

Every project has three levers. Instead of pretending they all pull at once, we make the choice clear, so you get the creativity, speed or budget control you actually need, without surprises.

The craftCreativity
The investmentCost certainty
The paceSpeed
Thorough
Accelerated
Focused
Choose on purpose

Thorough

Protects creativity and cost certainty; the timeline flexes. Deeper strategic and creative exploration on a defined number of directions, a full review process and normal approval windows, no priority scheduling fee, fewer rushed decisions.

Accelerated

Protects creativity and speed; the investment flexes. Full strategic and creative scope with reserved capacity, priority scheduling and compressed approvals. Standards don't drop, you're paying for the capacity we hold.

Focused

Protects speed and cost certainty; breadth and exploration flex. One recommended direction, system-led design, tightly limited deliverables and one revision round. Narrower, not lesser: strategy, accessibility, usability, performance and QA stay in place.

Pick two levers. Get your starting numbers.

Choose the two things this project must protect. The third determines what can flex. Select a project, then read exactly what changes under that configuration. The lever you leave out is the one that flexes, and each project has its own Focused, Thorough and Accelerated scope, so the number reflects the work actually included. Cheap is not a strategy unless you also lower the scope.

1. Pick two levers

Choose the two things this project must protect. The third determines what can flex. Rarely can anyone protect all three, so leave out the one that matters least on this project. That choice decides the scope, the timeline and the starting number.

Anyone promising all three is flexing something they haven't told you about: scope, senior involvement, revision rounds, originality, timeline reliability, quality assurance or post-launch support. We make the trade-off visible before the work begins.

2, Select a project

Fixed-price entry points

Start here. Fixed scope, fixed price, the levers don't apply.

Configurable projects

These flex with your two levers. Each configuration is a separately costed scope.

Fixed-price products

Smaller products with firm boundaries, not discounted versions of the big services.

Monthly retainers aren't in the builder. Ongoing delivery needs stable capacity, so those are fixed service levels, listed below.

3, Add your numbers (optional)

Pick the kind of business first, the fields and the maths change with it. Every selected project updates its estimated 12-month return as you type, using the same maths as the ROI calculator. Your numbers stay in your browser and carry across both pages.

Business and Marketing Diagnostic

$1,990 CAD

Under 2 weeks · fixed scope

You know something is off but can't name it yet.

  • Review of your brand, website, enquiries and follow-up
  • Written diagnosis of the real problem
  • Prioritized recommendations and a recommended path
  • One session to walk through it and ask questions

Direction Sprint

From $3,500

Under 1–2 weeks

The decision is bigger than a $1,990 review, a launch, a repositioning, a real budget on the line.

The deeper diagnosis. Same job as the Diagnostic, find the real problem before you fund the fix, but built for decisions with more moving parts: more stakeholders, more channels, more money at stake. It ends in a written 90-day plan, so the next dollar goes where it counts, not where it feels urgent.

  • Working sessions with your decision-makers
  • Review across brand, site, follow-up, pricing and channels
  • Positioning and priority decisions, not just findings
  • Prioritized 90-day action plan
  • Honest budget guidance and which package fits next

Boundary: Start with the $1,990 Diagnostic if the problem is contained. If its findings show something bigger, we start the sprint from there.

A diagnosis plus a prioritized plan you can act on without us, so you know the next three moves and what to stop paying for.

  • A list of what to stop doing
  • One review session

Boundary: Plan only. No implementation, and the levers don't apply.

  • Launch copy and content structure

  • Single-page or tightly templated site

Monthly work runs on fixed service levels

How your quote is built

A fixed price before we understand your problem is a guess. Your answers, and the two levers you pick, give you a real starting price and timeline, fast.

  • All prices are in Canadian dollars before tax. Media, software, printing, travel, venues, fabrication and other third-party costs are quoted and billed separately.
  • You pick the two levers that matter most: creativity, speed or cost certainty. The one you leave out is the one that flexes.
  • Each project has three scoped configurations, Focused, Thorough and Accelerated, costed independently. A lower number always means less work included, never the same promise for less.
  • Fixed-price products and monthly service levels don't flex. Their scope is set, so the price is set.
  • Strategy, brand consistency, accessibility, usability, performance, QA, honest measurement and any required consent controls are in every configuration. Those are the floor, not the levers.
  • Anything outside that scope becomes a written change order, described, priced and approved by you before we begin it. We don't sell blocks of time.
  • You own every file, account and system we build. No lock-in, no surprise renewal.

Let's find the right starting point

One short conversation usually shows whether you need a sprint, a build or a monthly lead, and which parts of your marketing should be run by a person and which should run themselves. No pitch deck, no pressure.
