How it works

How a world
gets built.

Every world goes through the same five steps. You always know what happens next, what it costs and when it lands. From the first call to the Keep, we stand beside you.

The path

Five steps,
in order

  1. 1

    The call

    Free · 30 minutes

    We look at your site and your category together and name your three biggest risks. You leave with one fix for this week and a straight answer on whether a Verdict is worth it. The call is over Google Meet or by phone.

  2. 2

    The Verdict

    $3,500 · 5 business days

    A scored audit of the world you already have, all seven layers judged against your buyer and your regulator. You get a ranked fix list, the order to do it in, and a readout call to walk through it.

  3. 3

    The Build

    From $25,000 for a full world

    We build the missing layers with you, Lore first, because every other layer reads from it. Each layer is signed off with you before the next one depends on it, and you have the dates before we start. Most full worlds take 12 to 16 weeks from kickoff to launch. The Verdict fee is credited to a Build that starts within 60 days. A single layer is quoted, and its dates set, after a free call. If we need a Verdict first, its fee is credited to the work.

    Launch

    Ready, not revised

    The world goes live as one piece: the site, the space, the print and the systems, already checked against your rules.

  5. 5

    The Keep

    From $4,500 a month

    After launch we stay on and keep your world running with you: content, signage, campaigns, new locations and new products. It grows without losing its rules. The Keep runs as long as you want it to, on a 3, 6 or 12 month plan.
