Our proven process

  1. You brief us. Loosely. Over the phone. While driving.
  2. We design it. Carefully, strategically, beautifully.
  3. You change it. Bigger logo. Different blue. Your business partner has notes.
  4. We fix it. Quietly. At 11:48 pm.
  5. You change it again. Repeat from step three until the budget runs out.

What we do

ServiceWhat it means
Logo by CommitteeWe won't stop until everyone has had a chance to make it worse.
AI Art DirectionBecause a good prompt is basically the same thing as twenty-five years of experience.
Unlimited RevisionsBecause "I'll know it when I see it" is a perfectly valid creative brief.
Creative DirectionYou direct. We creatively sigh.

AI Did the Design. Nobody Did the Thinking.

Why hire a designer when you have a login? Our AI-first workflow turns one prompt into forty-seven inconsistent brand directions, then lets the algorithm take the blame.

Kind words from people who know best

★★★★★ "They designed exactly what I asked for. Then I made them change it fourteen times. They never once told me I was wrong. Five stars!"

A Client Who Knows Best

★★★★★ "I used AI to create our new logo in ten minutes. Puppet Master spent three months explaining why it wasn't working. We went with my logo anyway."

CEO, Creative Director and Canva Expert

★★★★★ "Our brand looks completely different on every platform now. Our customers are confused, but at least my business partner likes the new font."

Anonymous Business Owner

★★★★★ "They said we needed brand guidelines. I said we needed more flexibility. Now we have thirty-seven logos and no idea which one to use."

A Very Flexible Client

★★★★★ "I hired professionals because I don't know anything about design. Then I told them exactly how to do everything. Great experience!"

Self-Aware Client

The Puppet Master Guarantee

You'll get exactly what you asked for. Not what you needed.

We know what we're doing. You're just not letting us do it.
