How it works

You get the credit.We stay in the water.

Send the brief, get a fixed quote in 48 hours, follow the build on weekly staging links, and take the hand-off under your own name. Ten services, one way of working — and your client never sees us.
Surface · The idea

The best work is the work nobody can trace back to us.

Most white-label shops say "we're invisible" and then leave fingerprints everywhere: their logo in a staging footer, their name in a plugin license, their agency's Slack invite in a client's inbox.
We built the process backwards from one rule: We were never here. Every step — how we quote, where we build, whose accounts hold the keys, who the client hears from — is designed so your agency is the only name on the work, the invoice, and the trophy.
The Wake
Deep water · How it works

Three steps. Zero visibility to your client.

Every project — a single landing page or a standing monthly retainer — moves through the same three steps.
STEP 01

The brief

Send designs, scope, and deadline
Within 48 hours you get a fixed quote and a build plan you can forward straight to your client — under your letterhead.
  • What we need: — approved designs (or a design direction), the scope in plain language, and the date it has to be live
  • What you get back: — a fixed price, a timeline, and a plan written so you can hand it to your client as your own
  • No hourly surprises — no "discovery phase" that quietly doubles the budget
The Brief
STEP 02

The build

A team that speaks designer
Weekly staging links, async updates in your channel of choice, and a team that speaks designer. No "that's not possible" — only "here's how."
  • Weekly staging links so you see progress while it's still cheap to change
  • Updates land in your channel of choice — email or a shared Slack channel — not a portal you have to log into
  • Built to the approved design, pixel for pixel, in Breakdance — the lean builder, none of the theme-forest bloat
  • Feedback goes to us; we never contact your client
The Build
STEP 03

The hand-off

Your name on the trophy
Clean code, documented, transferred to accounts you own. Your name on the trophy. We were never here.
  • Code, hosting, and licenses transferred to accounts you own — nothing held hostage
  • Handoff doc lists every plugin and why it's there
  • 30 days of post-launch support on per-project builds)
  • Feedback goes to us; we never contact your client
The Handoff
Mid-water · The menu

Ten services. Pick the depth you need.

The same three steps run behind every service. Start at the surface, or go as deep as the client needs.
You handle strategy, brand, and the client relationship. We handle the part where designs have to become fast, flawless, living websites.

Deep water · Stealth by design

How we stay invisible

You handle strategy, brand, and the client relationship. We handle the part where designs have to become fast, flawless, living websites.
The letterhead

Your letterhead, not ours.

Quotes, build plans, and handoff docs are written so you can forward them as your own.
The Keys

Your accounts, your keys.

Hosting, licenses, and repos are transferred to accounts you own. Nothing lives under our name.
The SIlence

No client contact.

We never email, call, or invite your client to anything. Feedback comes through you, or stays in your shared channel.
The Ledger

Zero client lists.

We don't publish who we work for — not on the site, not in a case-study, not anywhere. Your clients stay yours.
Mid-water · Ways to work

Two ways to run it.

Per project

The single catch

One build, fixed scope, fixed quote. Best for a single launch, an overflow project, or a first test run.

  • Fixed quote within 48 hours of brief
  • Weekly staging links & async updates
  • Full handoff — code, accounts, docs
  • 30 days of post-launch support included
Retainer

The standing crew

Reserved monthly capacity behind your agency. Best when build work is a regular part of your pipeline."

  • Guaranteed monthly build hours, priority queue
  • One shared Slack channel, same team every time
  • Maintenance & updates across past builds, plus new work as it comes up
  • Rate advantage over per-project pricing
The abyss · Why us

Enterprise pressure. Studio precision.

We cut our teeth on enterprise-grade launches — clients where a broken site wasn't a bug ticket. It was a headline.
Launch nights timed to the minute. Traffic spikes with no warning. Personal and corporate brands worth eight figures riding on a page load. That's the pressure this studio was built under — and it's why agencies trust us with the work they can't afford to get wrong.

The abyss · Why us

Frequently asked questions

No. Everything is delivered under your agency's name — quotes, staging links, handoff docs, and the accounts the site lives in. We don't contact your clients and we don't publish client lists.

Within 48 hours of sending designs, scope, and deadline. It's a fixed price with a build plan you can forward to your client.

 

Approved designs (or a clear design direction), the scope in plain language, and the date it has to be live. That's the brief.

Weekly staging links, plus async updates in whichever channel you prefer — email or a shared Slack channel.

You do. Code, documentation, hosting, and licenses are transferred to accounts you own, with full Git history. Nothing is held hostage.

Yes — that's what "The Single Catch" is for. Many agencies start with one build and move to a retainer once they've seen the process.
