Eight passes before a word reaches you

most shops draft and send. we run a copy desk. scroll — each pass signs itself in.
pass 01

The Briefing

First meeting. We receive your guidelines and listen more than we talk — scope, stakes, and what 'good' means to you.

you talk. we take the notes.
pass 02

Intent Reading

We process the brief thoroughly and restate your intentions back to you in one page. Nothing is written until that page is approved.

your words, re-typed as ours — approved before ink.
pass 03

The Deep Outline

Research-built architecture: sources, angles, and the gaps competitors miss. Depth of coverage no template shop attempts.

the outline is the argument.
pass 04

Fact Check

Every claim traced to a source before drafting continues. The most important pass in the building.

checked twice. cited once.
pass 05

Voice Match

Semantic alignment with your brand tone — vocabulary, cadence, taboo words — so the draft sounds like you on your best day.

reads like you wrote it. rested.
pass 06

The Human Draft

Handed to the assigned writer and written by a person, start to finish — then run through our 30+ step optimization: the technical pass most agencies can’t name.
