  2. 022–3 weeks

Trusted by teams who needed it to work.

We measure our work by what it does for the people who hired us. Here is what a few of them say.

Formwork understood our customers better than our last two agencies combined. The new store paid for itself before the season was over.

FAQ

Questions we hear a lot.

Can't find what you're looking for? Ask us anything. We're happy to talk it through, even if you're only just starting to plan.

Ask a question
How much does a website cost?

Most marketing websites we build land between $8,000 and $25,000, depending on the number of pages, integrations and how much content support you need. Web apps and portals start around $40,000. After a short discovery call you get a fixed-price proposal, so there are no surprises.

How long does a project take?

A focused marketing site usually takes four to six weeks from kickoff to launch. Larger sites and online stores take eight to twelve weeks, and web apps are planned in phases. We agree on a timeline before we start and share progress every week.

Will I be able to update the website myself?

Yes. Every site comes with an easy content editor set up around your pages, plus a recorded training session and written guides. Most clients make day-to-day changes on their own within the first week.

Do you work with clients outside your area?

Yes. We are a remote-first studio working with clients across North America and Europe. Workshops and reviews happen over video, and everything lives in one shared project space you can check anytime.

What happens after launch?

Every project includes at least 30 days of launch support. After that, many clients join a monthly care plan that covers updates, security monitoring, backups and a pool of hours for improvements.

Who owns the website when it is finished?

You do. You own the design, the code and the content, and we hand over every account and all the documentation at launch. No lock-in, ever.
