Most sites get visited. The ones we build get inhabited.

That is what we mean by a world: a site with its own look, its own motion and something to do in it, so people stay instead of skim.

(04.)Process
  1. Brief.

    Tell us what you are making. One focused round of questions. No call needed, though you can ask for one.

  2. Build.

    We build the real thing and send you the link. You react to a site, not a mockup.

  3. Launch.

    Most sites are live in two to four weeks. Half up front, half on launch.

From our clients

“Three other studios wanted a discovery call and a deposit just to start talking. Pilcrow just built it.”

“The site they built matched what was in my head better than what I would've described. We barely changed anything.”

FAQ

Common questions.

A site with its own look, its own motion and something to do in it. People stay, look around and come back, instead of skimming and leaving.

Four sizes, each with a fixed quote before work starts. Site starts at $3,500. Site Plus starts at $5,000 and adds a shop or booking. Signature starts at $7,500 and adds custom motion and one custom feature. World, our flagship, starts at $12,000. Apps, tools and games on their own start at $3,500. Every build is half up front, half on launch.

Your words, photos and logo, however rough. We edit and shape them. If you have nothing yet, tell us and we will plan around it.

Most sites are live in two to four weeks. Site is about two weeks, Signature is two to four, and World is four weeks and up.

Yes. You do not need a call to start, but you can ask for one on the start form and we will set it up.

Every build includes at least one round of revisions. Extra rounds are $200 each. After launch, Care gives you your own editor and an hour of our edits each month.

The site and the code are yours either way. If you want us to stay on, Care is $250 a month: hosting, a private editor, one hour of edits from us and a monthly health check. Care Plus is $900 a month and adds monthly SEO and unlimited small edits. Both have a three month minimum, then run month to month.

No. Without it we hand over everything and help you get it onto a host of your own. You just will not have the editor or our monthly hour.
