Process

How Monolith projects work: four steps. No surprises.

Every Monolith engagement, from a $500 audit to a monthly retainer, runs the same four steps: fit call, scope, build, handoff. You always know what happens next and what it costs.

The four steps in order: fit call, scope, build, handoff. Each step shows what you bring above what Monolith delivers. Every step is described in full below.

1

Fit call

What you bring

20 minutes. Bring the goal, the timeline, the budget range, and what has already been tried.

What you get

A straight read on whether Monolith is the right fit, and the cleanest starting point if so. No deck, no pressure.

2

Scope

What you bring

Feedback on a one-page scope: deliverables, timeline, review points, and price.

What you get

Everything defined before work starts. Fixed-scope projects are priced by deliverable, not the clock.

3

Build

What you bring

Fast feedback at the agreed review points. Content and access when the scope needs them.

What you get

Strategy, creative, AI workflows, ads, web, or content production, packaged for use and shipped on the dates in the scope.

4

Handoff

What you bring

A working session to receive the deliverables, if you want one.

What you get

Final assets, documentation, next-step recommendations, and an optional retainer path. Nothing held hostage.

Scope is a promise

Everything is defined before work starts: deliverables, timeline, review points, price. If it is not in the scope, it is not a surprise invoice. It is a conversation.

The shape of the work

The same four steps whether it is a $500 audit or a monthly retainer. The scope changes every time. The shape does not.
