02 — Identity

The visual + verbal system your brand earns the right to keep.

You're here because

We'd bet one of these is yours.

Three moments we hear on almost every first call about brand & design. If one of them landed, that's usually where we'd start.

  • Your team generates 50 ads a week. Half look like a different brand.

    AI tools made volume cheap and consistency expensive. Every junior marketer ships something. Some of it looks like the brand. Some of it looks like Canva ate the brand and spit it out.

    01 · Brand drift · at AI speed

  • You showed leadership three logo concepts in 2023. None of them shipped.

    It died in committee. Then it died in the new committee. Now it's a screenshot in a Notion doc and the original logo is on your business card from 2019.

    02 · Brand work · stuck in approvals

  • You explain your brand voice to every new hire personally.

    There's no doc. Or the doc is so vague that the new hire writes their first email in a voice that's nearly right but quietly wrong. You spot it. They don't.

    03 · Tribal brand knowledge

If any of that landed, we're cooking the same dish.

What's in the dish

Logo, palette, type, voice, motion language, art-direction guardrails — designed once, applied across every surface, plus the prompts that keep AI tools on-brand for everything you generate after.

  • Logo + identity system with motion behavior

  • Brand voice doc readable by humans and models

  • Component-level design tokens for engineering

  • On-brand prompt pack for image + copy AI

Investment

Brand work scales by surface count and rollout breadth. Below are starting investments — we quote per scope after the audit.

  • Starter

    Brand Voice & Visual Audit

    $3,500

    / fixed scope

    Where your brand is consistent, where it leaks, and how to keep AI tools on-brand as you generate more with them.

    See on the menu
  • Most ordered

    Main

    The Plating

    from $18,000

    / 6–10 week engagement

    Full identity + voice + motion system, design tokens, brand book, and the prompt pack that keeps AI tools on-brand after we leave.

    See on the menu
  • Pair

    + The Centerpiece (Custom Site)

    from $42,000

    / combined engagement

    Rebrand and rebuild in lockstep. New identity launches with a custom site engineered around it.

Every engagement is quoted before it's confirmed. These are starting points, not contracts.

What you bring

The counter-prep. Light list — heavy when missing.

Brand work moves fast when leadership is in the room. The prep:

  • 01Two decision-makers max (more than three kills brand work)
  • 02Existing brand assets, even outdated ones — we want the history
  • 033 brands you envy + 3 you don't — informal is fine
  • 04Sign-off authority for the identity reveal at week 4
  • 05A real launch surface to apply the brand to (site, deck, signage)

We'd hired three branding agencies before. They'd ship a beautiful PDF and disappear. This team shipped a design system our engineers could use the next day, plus the prompt pack means our junior marketers don't go off-brand when they're generating ads at midnight.

Stop us if you've thought any of this

We've heard it. Here's the real talk.

The three doubts that come up on every first call about brand & design. You're not the first to think them — and you're not wrong to.

  • You've thought

    We already have a brand. Why rebrand?

    Real answer

    We're not rebranding for the sake of it. We're building the SYSTEM that keeps your existing brand consistent at the speed AI tools are now generating for you. Tokens, voice doc, prompt pack — the infrastructure that prevents drift.

  • You've thought

    Brand work feels like a luxury.

    Real answer

    It is luxury. It's also the only thing competitors can't copy in 2 weeks. Features get copied. Pricing gets undercut. A real brand is the only moat that compounds.

  • You've thought

    Three concepts is too few.

    Real answer

    Three is what ships. Twelve is what dies in committee. We narrow with you — but we narrow. Brand work that gives you 12 directions is brand work that's already lost.

Got a fourth? Bring it to the call.

Asked & plated

Most-asked, here.

Do you do logo-only work?
+
Not really — a logo without a system around it ages fast and goes off-brand in 90 days. We do brand audits as a logo-only-ish entry point, but the main work is always the system.
Will the brand work for AI-generated assets too?
+
Yes — that's the part most agencies miss in 2026. We ship a prompt pack alongside the brand book so your team and your AI tools stay on-brand for everything generated after we leave.
How many concepts do you present?
+
Three at the reveal, narrowed to one with iterations. We don't do 'pick from 12 directions' — that's how brand work dies in committee.

Yes Chef.
