Anonymous by design · White-label by default

Behind your brand. Nowhere near your client.

A white-label tech partnership with documented terms, a published five-layer discretion framework, a fixed-cost scoping model, and a ninety-day post-launch programme included in every engagement. Sit behind your brand on a build, an audit, a take-over, or only the launch. The same standards on every route.

Why our names aren’t on this page.

We work white-label by default. Most of what Orizon ships sits behind another agency’s brand, under an NDA they signed with their client. We don’t put our names on work that isn’t ours to claim, and we don’t put them on this page either.

02 / 13 · Capabilities

What we build for agencies.

Twelve categories of build we ship under agency brands, each with handoff-ready code, your team’s commit conventions, and documentation that reads as your team produced it.

Handoff-ready code

Clean, modular, structured for speed.

Your team’s conventions

We adopt your git workflow & commit patterns.

Docs like your own

Pragmatic, thorough white-label docs.

03 / 13 · Technology Stack

What we build with. The tech stack.

The Orizon site runs on Next.js 14 + Sanity + Vercel. Client engagements run on whatever the build calls for. Below is the working stack across recent and current engagements.

Your Stack Summary

Select the technologies your build leans on. We’ll scope the engagement around exactly this stack on the first call — and flag anything we’d add.

04 / 13 · Engagement Matrix

Engagement model matrix. Four ways to engage.

Not every project arrives at the same point in its life. Partnerships work in four shapes.

01

A new build, end to end

The full four-phase engagement of Discovery, Strategy, Build, Launch & Stay, scoped as a fixed-cost SOW on the second call. Perfect for when you need a white-label team to deliver a client project.

02

A take-over gone sideways

Code audit first, written diagnostic next, then a plan to fix, set aside, or rebuild. For when a previous partner stalled, shipped something broken, or quietly disengaged.

03

Extended-team capacity

Embedded senior engineering on top of your in-house team for a specific feature, sprint, or quarter. Senior from day one, closing on the agreed date.

04

Standalone post-launch

Runs on a build we didn’t ship. Time to learn the codebase first, then the same operating standard as any engagement we shipped ourselves.

Not sure which one fits? That’s what the fit call is for. Bring where you are and we’ll tell you which shape makes sense — on the first call, before any commitment.

05 / 13 · Pricing Modes

Pricing modes. How pricing works.

No tier table. No hourly menu. The partnership uses three pricing modes depending on the shape of the engagement.

Project-scoped

Fixed cost. In writing.
  • ·Scoped openly on the second call
  • ·Written SOW with a milestone timeline
  • ·Fixed cost on the SOW — anything outside gets a new one
Best For

New builds, take-overs, and any defined deliverable.

Scope a project

Sprint-retained

Capacity, by the sprint.
  • ·Retained capacity in two-week sprints
  • ·Named hours and named outputs per sprint
  • ·Renewed in writing each sprint
Best For

Steady delivery rhythms and quarter-long extended-team work.

Talk about a retainer

Workshop-only

A sharp read, first.
  • ·Solve-the-Real-Problem workshop, standalone for a flat fee
  • ·Written diagnostic and scope outline as the deliverable
  • ·No commitment to the build that follows
Best For

A sharp read on a brief before committing to a build.

Book the workshop
Re-quote rules

Anything that moves the original scope gets re-quoted before work begins. Scope creep gets surfaced the same week by the lead who saw it first, on its own message in your channel — not folded into a status update.

Included by default

Mutual NDA returned promptly. Brand alignment brief on the second call. Decision-rights matrix signed before kickoff. ADRs committed to your repo. The ninety-day post-launch programme. Termination clean, no penalty.

Scoped as separate work

Net-new builds outside the SOW. Migrations to platforms not in scope. Brand or visual identity work. Paid media setup. Long-tail SEO content. Anything that isn’t engineering on the build at hand. Fixed-cost. Re-quoted before scope moves. No surprises.

06 / 13 · Partnership Funnel

From first message to first build day. How a partnership starts.

Five stages from inquiry to first build day. Stages, not days; every engagement moves at the pace its scope calls for.

01

Inquiry

Drop a line. Bring the brief you’re working from, the previous-partner experience that didn’t work, or the client engagement you’re trying to figure out how to staff. The first reply comes from a co-founder, not an SDR. We read what you’ve sent before we book the call.

02

Fit call

A focused call held by a co-founder. Three questions in order: what you’re trying to build, what’s already in place, what twelve months from now needs to be true. The mutual NDA goes out the same day. If the partnership doesn’t fit, you hear that on the call. The honesty isn’t optional.

03

The workshop

Solve-the-Real-Problem. The brief is the entry point, not the destination. We test it against the outcome and surface the gaps. The output is a written diagnostic and a scoped quote outline — yours to keep, however the partnership moves forward.

04

Agreement

Partnership agreement + brand alignment brief. Six clauses (see below). Plus a brand alignment brief — a questionnaire capturing voice, visual standards, terminology, tooling, client-facing conventions. Returned and signed before kickoff. The agreement is shorter than most NDAs.

05

Kickoff

Decision-rights matrix signed. Working channel agreed. Repo access provisioned by your DevOps. The first build day starts with a standup in your tools, in your team’s voice. From here, the four-phase engagement runs as documented on Process.

07 / 13 · Discretion Framework

What your client never sees. Five layers of invisible.

Discretion broken into five operational layers. Each one holds for the full duration of the engagement.

01

Invisible team

Your client never sees an Orizon face, name, or email. Our public profiles don’t name the work that ships under your name.

02

Invisible tooling

Your Slack, your tracker, your repo organisation, your domain on every staging environment, your name in every commit author field.

03

Invisible billing

We invoice you. You invoice your client. The accounting trail stops at your books.

04

Invisible IP

Every artefact gets committed to your repo under your team’s name format. IP transfer is immediate, not phased.

05

Invisible exit

When an engagement closes, no leftover credentials, no orphaned admin accounts, no support inbox on our side. The relationship that began invisibly ends the same way.

08 / 13 · Comparison Matrix

Where the partnership sits. Partnership vs in-house vs offshore.

Three routes an agency takes when extra engineering capacity is needed. They’re not equivalent. Here is what changes between them.

Senior review on every layer

In-house hire

Depends on the hire’s seniority — most agencies can’t justify a senior salary for occasional needs.

Offshore freelancer

Almost never. Quality is variable, review process is informal.

Orizon partnership

Senior eyes on architecture, infrastructure, security, performance before code reaches your repo.

NDA + non-solicit

In-house hire

Employment contract — but protection only holds while employed.

Offshore freelancer

Sometimes a one-off NDA. Non-solicit rarely enforceable.

Orizon partnership

Mutual NDA + non-solicit in every engagement, holding through the engagement and an agreed tail.

IP ownership

In-house hire

Yours from the start.

Offshore freelancer

Variable. Some platforms hold IP in escrow until payment clears.

Orizon partnership

Yours from the first commit. Written into the agreement.

Brand alignment + voice

In-house hire

High, with onboarding.

Offshore freelancer

Low. Hand-off is typically the limit.

Orizon partnership

Brand alignment brief signed before kickoff. Every artefact reads as your team’s work.

Communication channel

In-house hire

Your tools.

Offshore freelancer

Often platform-specific; pushes out into email.

Orizon partnership

Your Slack, your tracker, your repo. We don’t run a portal you have to check.

Capacity flex

In-house hire

Hard — hiring and firing has overhead.

Offshore freelancer

Easy — but quality varies project to project.

Orizon partnership

Sprint-retained or project-scoped. Scaling up or down is in writing.

After launch

In-house hire

Whatever you build internally.

Offshore freelancer

Usually ends at delivery.

Orizon partnership

Structured care included by default.

What you’re paying for

In-house hire

Salary + benefits + overhead + recruitment + retention risk.

Offshore freelancer

Hourly rate, with quality and IP risk built in.

Orizon partnership

Project-scoped or sprint-retained, with the partnership agreement absorbing the risk.

09 / 13 · Agreement Clauses

Six clauses · The same six every time. The agreement we’d sign.

Six clauses, the same six in every partnership. Shared openly on the second call. The full agreement runs to a few pages.

01 · Mutual NDA

Both sides. Covers Orizon and any specialist for the duration of the engagement plus an agreed tail.

02 · Non-solicit

If a client of yours reaches us directly, we route them back in writing. Non-negotiable on our side; timeframe is negotiable on yours.

03 · IP assignment

Every artefact gets committed to your repo under your team’s name format. IP transfer is immediate, not phased.

04 · Decision-rights matrix

Named owners on each side for architecture, scope, sequence, and escalation. Written per engagement.

05 · Termination

Either side ends with written notice. Clean handover including credentials and any active maintenance position. No penalty.

06 · Brand alignment

Your voice, your visual standards, your terminology, your tooling. We adopt them; we don’t ask you to adapt to ours.

10 / 13 · Operating Boundaries

Lines we’ve decided not to cross. What we won’t do.

Five operating lines, written into the partnership agreement, signed before kickoff.

01

No direct contact

Never contact your client directly. No emails, no calls, no DMs on platforms where they could find us. The only exception is a written request from you authorising a specific interaction, with rules agreed first.

02

No public naming

Never name you publicly without consent. No posts on social, no client logos on a clients page, no name-drop in a sales conversation. Written go-ahead from you comes first.

03

No soliciting

Never solicit your client. Contractually bound. If a client of yours ever reaches Orizon directly, we route them back to you in writing the same day.

04

No silent specialists

Never sub-contract without naming the specialist. Specialists are introduced by name, scope, and NDA status before they touch your repo. Nobody appears in your engagement you haven’t been told about.

05

No niche conflict

Never compete in your protected niche. The partnership agreement names the niche and region you’ve asked for protection in. We don’t take engagements that would compete with you inside that boundary.

11 / 13 · Questions

Questions you’re about to ask. Common questions.

Every team member carries a no-mention rule for partnership engagements they touch. A slip is a documented breach of the partnership agreement on our side.
Yes. The first engagement runs under a mutual NDA before the broader partnership agreement is countersigned. If the trial works for both sides, the full terms apply going forward. If not, we close out cleanly with no obligation beyond the engagement that was scoped.
We’ll tell you on the second call, before specifics change hands. If we’re working with a direct competitor inside your protected niche and region, the partnership wouldn’t make sense for either side. The non-compete is region-and-niche-specific, written into the agreement, and negotiable on both sides.
Through your existing tools — Slack, Microsoft Teams, your project tracker, your repo. We don’t run a separate portal you have to check. The lead posts in your channel as a named member of your team. Cadence gets agreed in stage four of onboarding.
Scoped on the second call alongside the SOW. Most of full-build engagements move on a sprint cadence with launch windows agreed in the planning phase. Take-over engagements add a code-audit week up front. Standalone post-launch-only engagements have a codebase-learning ramp before care begins.
You do. From the first commit. Every artefact transfers to your organisation at commit time — no phased delivery, no escrow, no clauses that hold IP back. Through you, your client owns it on the terms you’ve agreed with them. The closure is operational, not a release of rights.
Frontend (React, Next.js, Vue, Angular, TypeScript). Backend (Node, Python, PHP/Laravel, .NET, Ruby on Rails). Headless CMS (Sanity, Strapi, Contentful, WordPress). Ecommerce (Shopify Plus, WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce). Mobile (React Native, Flutter, native iOS/Android). AI/automation (custom agents, LangChain, integrations). Full grid above.
Re-quoted on a separate SOW in writing before any new work begins. Variance reports surface the same week from the lead who saw the change first, on their own message in your channel. Nothing absorbed quietly. You decide what to pass through to your client and what to absorb.
12 / 13 · The Partnership Conversation

The partnership conversation. Stay in touch.

Bring a brief that’s been sitting on your desk. A project the previous partner stalled on. A client engagement you’re trying to figure out how to staff. We won’t pitch you. We’ll read what you’ve sent us and tell you what we’d do with it on the first call.

The partner that stays. We build what stays.
