Cheap monthly subs and big agency retainers both hide costs. Here's the honest math.

What clients actually say.

Launch tier

I needed a real brand and a site live before my first vendor meeting. Booked on a Tuesday, brand concept Friday, site live the next Wednesday. Everyone keeps asking which agency I used — the honest answer is a senior team, fixed price, eight days.

Grow tier

We'd been on Squarespace for three years and were embarrassed every time we sent the link. Stack Renew rebuilt the whole thing in four weeks — six pages, our own CMS, the brand finally looks like our shop feels. Our store manager publishes blog posts in plain English now. Mobile Lighthouse went from 39 to 98.

Grow tier

Three local agencies quoted me $18k–$30k for a five-page site. Stack Renew came in at $7k fixed-bid, four weeks. Code is in my GitHub, brand files in a folder I own. Two months in I haven't paid them another dollar — the CMS does what we need.

Common questions.

Why is this so much cheaper than your other engagements?

Scope. The Launch and Grow tiers are productized — fixed deliverables, fixed timeline, fixed price. They lean on AI-assisted scaffolding and our existing Astro starter kit. Our SaaS-replacement and custom-software work is full custom engineering against your specific business model, which is a different product entirely.

Do I really own the code and brand files?

Yes, day one. The repo is in your GitHub from the first commit. The brand files (Figma source, vector logos, color tokens) live in a shared folder you keep when the engagement ends. No DK control plane, no per-seat licence, no "we host it for you" lock-in.

What does the timeline actually look like?

Launch tier: kickoff Monday, brand concept Wednesday, site preview Friday, refinements over the weekend, live by end of week 2 at the latest. Grow tier: week 1 brand + sitemap, weeks 2–3 design + build, week 4 content + refinement, week 5 launch. We hold to these or refund the difference.

What if I want changes after launch?

Launch tier includes 14 days of post-launch tweaks; Grow includes 30 days. Most teams then edit content themselves — the Grow tier ships with a headless CMS so you write copy like Google Docs, no code. If you need bigger changes later, send us a quick brief and we'll quote a fixed bid for it.

Can I edit the site myself after launch?

Launch tier: content lives in code (single page, simple to edit if you're comfortable with text files; or we make changes for you). Grow tier: a headless CMS (Sanity or Payload) means your team edits like Google Docs — no code touched.

Brand + site, live in a week.
