Project workflow

A clear path from plan to launch.

The VibeBox service is direct and developer-led. You get a written scope, visible progress, review points, and transparent payment milestones.

01The six steps

The same sequence, every project.

Each step produces something concrete you can review. The demo site on the right shows what that looks like.

  1. Plan it in Launchpad

    Answer plain questions about your business, pick a look, and watch a live preview of your site take shape, with the price updating as you go.

    • A live preview of your website
    • A price that follows your scope
    • A plan you can save and finish later
  2. Instant start or developer review

    Simple sites get a fixed price and can start right away. Anything that needs a developer, like online payments or booking, gets a written quote within 1 business day.

    • A written quote: fixed, or from a developer
    • Pages, add-ons, and the 40/60 split
    • No payment until you approve or accept
  3. Deposit and direction

    The 40% non-refundable deposit secures the project and starts planning, content structure, and design direction.

    • Sitemap and content priorities
    • A design direction for review
    • The project officially in motion
  4. Design and development

    The website is designed and built in clear stages, with progress shared through staging and direct communication.

    • Responsive pages built in stages
    • Integrations wired to your scope
    • Staging previews as sections land
  5. Review and quality assurance

    We complete agreed revisions, test responsive behavior, validate content, forms, SEO essentials, and launch readiness.

    • Agreed revisions completed
    • Responsive, form, and SEO checks
    • A launch-ready staging site
  6. Final balance and launch

    The remaining 60% and paid add-ons are settled before production launch, source handover, or domain connection.

    • Production release and domain connection
    • Source code and account handover
    • Training on managing your site

02Payment milestones

Two payments, stated up front.

The 40/60 split keeps the project accountable in both directions: you never pay for undefined work, and the studio never builds on vague promises.

To start40% deposit

A non-refundable deposit secures the project and starts planning, design preview, and initial development.

During the buildNo surprise billing

The quote you approve fixes the price. Progress is visible on staging while the agreed scope is built.

Before launch60% balance

The balance and any paid add-ons are settled before production launch, source handover, or domain connection.

If the remaining balance is overdue, the staging website may be paused until payment is completed. Final scope and price are always confirmed in writing before the deposit.

03Before we start

A little preparation goes a long way.

None of this is required to start planning. Tick what you already have to see how ready you are.

0 of 6 ready. That is fine, we can help with the rest.

04Common questions

Deposits, timing, and ownership.

How does the 40% deposit work?

The 40% deposit is non-refundable once your project is accepted and work has started. The 60% balance is due before code handover, production launch or domain connection. If we decline a paid project before work starts, the deposit is refunded in full.

How long will my website take?

Timing depends on the scope, content readiness, integrations, and review speed. VibeBox gives an estimated schedule for your scope rather than promising the same turnaround for every build.

Will I own the website?

Your written quote and project terms define ownership and any licensed third-party materials. Final source-code transfer and handover occur after the remaining balance and paid add-ons are settled.

Start a project

Step one takes about ten minutes.

Launchpad asks about your business, your goals, and the look you want, then shows a live preview and the price. Simple sites can start right away.
