Every step ends with an artifact and your approval.

One round per step, and during the build that means one round per page rather than one for the whole build. A four-page site carries five included rounds: one on the wireframe, and one per page. A round is one consolidated set of feedback, and it doesn't begin until you say your feedback is complete. Additional rounds are available at a rate stated in your quote. Defects — anything that doesn't match the approved direction or the written scope — are always fixed and never consume a round.

A document we write after reading your brief, called manifest.md. It states who your business is, who it serves, what it sounds like, what it looks like, and what the site has to make happen — in our words, not repeated back in yours. You correct it line by line until every line is accurate, and it then becomes the reference every later step is checked against. Making it a file rather than a conversation is deliberate: a paragraph in a message gets skimmed and agreed to, while a document with a line per claim gets read.

Because a misjudged pattern found on page one is a half-hour fix that never reaches pages two through six, while the same pattern found at the end has been repeated everywhere and has to be unpicked from each. It also gives you something real to click early, and people assess a page they can use far more accurately than a picture of one. Each page is approved in writing before the next one starts.

Because structure and styling are different arguments, and holding them at the same time makes both harder. A wireframe has no colour and no type, so the only thing left to discuss is what goes where and how much room it gets — which is the decision everything else is built on. Once it is approved, the styling has a brief to satisfy rather than a blank page to fill.

Approving a step locks it, because the next step is built on top of it. Reopening one is a change order: we quote the change, you accept or decline, and the timeline adjusts. Nothing is refused outright — it's priced rather than absorbed silently.

You choose the channel at kickoff — a verified marketplace profile (currently Fiverr, fiverr.com/froentive) or direct email — and the steps, deliverables and revision policy are identical either way. The reply time on that channel is one business day, and anything decided in a call is written back to it afterwards, so the project has a single record rather than one that exists in someone's memory.

A completed project brief, plus anything you already hold that describes the brand: a manifesto or positioning document, existing brand guidelines, logo files, photography, and examples of sites you like or dislike. If none of that exists, that's a normal starting point — the brand manifest simply does more of the defining, and the quote reflects it. After booking you also send the content and asset pack against a stated deadline.

The remaining dates shift by the length of the delay. It's stated in the scope before the project starts rather than negotiated afterwards, because late content is the most common cause of a late launch and it isn't something we can fix by working harder.

Because “how do I change this text?” has a completely different answer on each stack. A static site handover covers where the source lives, how an edit becomes a deploy, and how to roll back. A CMS handover covers logins and roles, how to edit each content type, and which parts are structural. An e-commerce handover covers products and inventory, the order and payment flow, and tax and shipping. Every handover also covers domain and DNS, where email is hosted, renewal dates, analytics and Search Console access, and what to do first.

You do. Ownership of the delivered design and code transfers to you on final payment, and the handover includes what you need to run it independently.

Froentive doesn't publish prices, because a fixed price only means something once the scope is written. The quote at step three is fixed for the scope it describes, valid for 14 days, and includes the payment schedule and the rate for any additional revision round.
