In every package

The same terms for a launch page and for an app.

A fixed price

The price in your quote is the price you pay. If the scope changes, we agree the change in writing first.

Direction before production

You approve a direction, a first screen, a script or a style frame before we build the rest.

Two rounds of revisions

Changes on real work, not on slides. Films include one revision on the final cut.

Yours outright

Once the final payment is made, the work, its files and its source are yours.

Payment in two steps

50% to start and 50% on delivery. Projects over $15,000 are split into three milestones.

Two weeks of fixes

After launch, anything that does not work as agreed is fixed at no charge for two weeks.
