How it works
process
Simple to start, quick to launch, partner to grow.
Every engagement is structured around what your business needs to meet its goals, not a predetermined package of deliverables.
Discover, Build, Partner
Three steps, one fixed price.
-
01
Discover
Every engagement begins with a diagnosis. We define the problem, then commit to a fixed scope and price.
- Full site and UX audit
- Audience and business objective research
- Fixed-price proposal
-
02
Build
We turn the diagnosis into a focused, fully tested digital product. Every design decision is guided by the goals defined in discovery.
- UX and interface design
- Development and cross-device testing
- Launch-ready product
-
03
Partner
Post-launch involvement is scaled to each organization. Support ranges from individual requests to managed hosting and ongoing content updates.
- Performance monitoring
- Feature enhancements
- Client-editable content with built-in safeguards
Research published in Nature by Leidy Klotz and colleagues at the University of Virginia found that people systematically overlook subtraction as a way to improve things. Subtraction Design is built on the opposite instinct.

Fixed prices, agreed before we start. No surprise invoices.

Common questions
Direct answers to how we operate, collaborate, and deliver.
What kind of clients do you work with?
We work with entrepreneurs, marketing teams, non-profits, and established businesses that need a website that accurately represents and actively supports their business. If your current site isn't performing, hasn't kept pace with your growth, or you're building from scratch, we're built for that.
What services do you offer?
We design, build, and launch websites end-to-end. This spans the full range of what a website requires, from strategic direction and brand expression to interface design, user experience, and technical build. Every engagement is shaped by what your business needs, not by a package of deliverables.
How do you price your projects?
Every project is scoped and priced based on what it requires. We agree on a fixed price before we begin, so there are no surprise invoices. Ongoing Partner engagements are scoped separately based on your support needs.
What is your typical project timeline?
Timelines are scoped to each project and agreed upfront. We move efficiently without cutting corners, and we also won't rush a project that deserves more time.
How do you keep projects on track and on budget?
Every project begins with a structured discovery process that establishes clear direction, defined deliverables, and an agreed price before any design or development begins. We keep clients informed and involved at every stage, so decisions are made collaboratively, momentum is maintained, and there are no surprises at the finish line.
