What we do

Why CINEM
The reasons clients consolidate with us
After five years and four hundred projects, these are the four things clients tell us made the difference.
One partner, the whole stack
Most companies stitch together a dev shop, a social agency and a freelance designer, then spend their week translating between them. Every capability here sits under one roof, on one contract, with one point of accountability.
Named people, not an account layer
You work directly with the engineers, designers and managers doing the work. No account executive relaying messages, no rotating team you have to re-brief every quarter.
You own everything we build
Source code, design files, infrastructure accounts, documentation. Everything transfers to you. If you ever want to take it in-house, nothing stops you.
Reported on outcomes, not activity
Hours logged and impressions delivered are diagnostics, not results. Our monthly reports lead with the number you actually care about, and we say plainly when it hasn't moved.

How we work
From first call to launched product
The same four steps whether you're commissioning a website or a twenty-week platform build.
01
Discovery call
Thirty minutes. You describe the problem, we ask the awkward questions and tell you honestly whether we're the right team for it.
02
Scope and proposal
A written proposal with fixed scope, milestones, timeline and price. No hourly ambiguity, no surprises in month three.
03
Build in sprints
Two-week cycles with a working demo at the end of each. You see real progress every fortnight, not a status document.
04
Launch and support
We handle deployment, handover and training — then stay on for the first thirty days, or longer on a retainer.

One website or several? A decision framework for multi-service agencies
Splitting each service onto its own domain feels like focus. Usually it's six half-maintained websites and six SEO efforts starting from zero.

Chatbot or calling agent? Choosing the right AI front door
They solve overlapping problems in very different ways. The right choice depends on how your buyers behave, not on which is newer.

Why most agency websites don't convert — and what fixes them
The problem is almost never the design. It's that the site describes what the agency does instead of proving they've done it.
Let's talk about what you're building
Tell us the problem in one paragraph. We'll come back within one business day with an honest view of scope, timeline and whether we're the right team for it.
