The reading comes before the pitch.
Tell us what you want to build, or what you already built that isn't earning its keep. The first reply usually includes something we noticed about your situation, so you can judge how we think before you spend a dollar on it.
Use this desk for AI systems, product builds, web3 and brand work. For billing, your build credit, or a privacy or accessibility request, use the main contact page.
A person replies, with something specific
A person writes back, usually with something we noticed about your site, system or plan. If we're the wrong fit, we'll say so.
Evidence before any proposal
Most engagements start with a graded reading of what already exists, whether that's a site, a codebase or a system design. The measurement shapes the scope. What's easiest to sell doesn't get a vote.
Scope, sequence and exit gates
A written plan with the phases, the decision points, and the measurable gate each phase has to pass. You'll know what "done" means before we start.
Founders shipping something ambitious. Technical teams who want a partner that reads the code as closely as the deck. Investors and operators who need a straight reading of a system before they back it. If you're after flattery, look elsewhere. We grade.
Kick the tires first. We'd do the same.
Run your site through The Grader, the same six-lens reading our own releases have to pass.
