How do sprints work?
Agile development teams like to work fast and “ship” new products and features at a fast clip. On the other hand, traditional design teams and agencies are known for sprawling projects that can take months.
We spent more than two years picking and adjusting the best bits of the agile development method to make a creative process that keeps us nimble, creative, and productive.
WHY
Align on what we’re doing and why, at a high level.
WHAT
Break that down into discrete, manageable tasks.
HOW
Groom tasks into one to two-week sprints based on specific goals or outcomes.
RUN
Work! Test ideas, get input, course correct, and keep moving toward our goals.
WRAP
Round up all work, assets, both complete and in-progress.

Now, don’t get us wrong – some work needs time to get it right. But our approach makes sure that the design time we invest in is spent moving us forward in specific ways. In our world, large or complex projects would be broken down into goal-oriented sprints.

Do you write copy?
We take care of two kinds of copy: editorial direction and UX writing. Editorial focuses more on the story that needs to be told and how to tell it, while UX writing is all about how copy supports the digital experience (menu labels, prompts to contact, section heads, etc.).
Too often, copy is treated as a singular task; really, it takes a team to craft a solid content strategy!
We need your input on the messages that are important to your business and your customers.
We need to understand and develop the tone of voice that reflects your personality.
And we need to come to a shared understanding of what and how much content can be realistically produced and maintained.
Do you make websites?
We make all kinds of websites:
B2B
Ecommerce
Dashboard
Portal
Landing pages
and have been for more than 20 years.
