The rate sheet

Sorted low to high, including vendors that cost far less than we do. A comparison that only shows expensive competitors isn't a comparison. The two middle columns are what matters: a cinematic scroll-driven site, and original film of you. Read down them.

Read the two middle columns again. Every vendor above fills one or the other. The video houses don't build the site. The award studios don't shoot you. The legal web agencies do neither — a fully custom law firm site at $18,000–25,000 contains no film of the attorney at all.

One row on this sheet fills both columns, and it is not the most expensive one.

What we built, and why it can exist now

Feature-film technique — a slow orbit around a subject, cinematic lighting, a person filmed the way a studio films a lead actor — has always been priced out of reach for a practice your size. It required a motion-control robot, a blacked-out stage, and a crew for the day.

We built a proprietary production pipeline that leverages AI to produce that footage at feature-film quality, with your likeness held consistent across every frame, and a proprietary method for embedding it into a 3D scroll-driven website — where the film advances as your visitor scrolls, instead of sitting in a box waiting to be played. That combination did not exist at any price two years ago. We are bringing it to the United States, and to American law firms first.

For a solo practitioner or a small firm, that means arriving on screen with the production value of a national brand. A prospect who has already opened four attorney websites this morning remembers yours. The site is sophisticated, effortless to navigate, fast on a phone — and it argues for your credibility before you have said a word.

And right now, you would be the only one. Before quoting anyone, we inspected the delivered source code of roughly seventy US law firm websites — the award directories, the industry "best of" lists, and the elite litigation firms. The scroll-animation libraries that make a site cinematic either load, or they don't:

Elite and BigLaw firms — Quinn Emanuel, WilmerHale, Susman Godfrey, Bartlit Beck — with any scroll animation. Only Cooley, and only simple fade-ins. Source HTML inspected, Aug 2026

Not one of them is running what is on this page. A handful come close on one half or the other — a firm with real commissioned footage sitting on a static page, or an ambitious animated site with no film in it anywhere. None combines both.

That window stays open until your competitors find someone who can do this. Today, in the United States, that list is short.

03

How it's priced

Most firms take the monthly. It is how the rest of your marketing is already billed, and it means the build is never a five-figure decision made on a single signature. The first year is a twelve-month term either way — that is what pays for the build. Month-to-month cancellation begins after it, once the site is yours outright.

Most firms start here
First year, monthly
$995per month
The cinematic site, three original films of you, and everything below. Hosted and maintained. The twelve-month term runs to completion — it is how the build itself is paid for.
First year, paid upfront
$10,945$995 × 11 — one month free
Identical to the monthly plan, settled in one payment. Pay for eleven months, get twelve.
After the first year

The build is done and paid for, so the price drops to keeping it live: hosting, security, backups, SSL and uptime monitoring, plus minor content edits. No new term and no renewal commitment — it continues month to month, and from this point you can cancel any time with 30 days' notice.

$79per month
under half the $199/mo published law-firm care plan

The first year includes the cinematic site, three original films of you, hosting, security and backups, unlimited content edits, and a new film every quarter — four more by the time the year is out, so the site is never the one a prospect saw last time.

Compare the first year honestly. Grow Law publishes $11,176 upfront plus $499 a month for a custom law firm website — $17,164 in year one, with no video of you in it.

The same year here is $11,940 monthly, or $10,945 paid upfront. Roughly two-thirds of the price, with three films and a cinematic site.

Then compare year two. Their $499 a month keeps running: $5,988 a year, every year. Ours drops to $79 — $948. The gap widens every year you keep the site.

04

What you're actually paying for

A full year at $11,940 comes in under the two firms that sell attorneys original video and no website at all — Diamond Studios at $15,000 and Crisp at a client-reported $15,000 — and well under a fully custom law firm website from PaperStreet at $18,000–25,000, which includes no video whatsoever.

The scroll-driven craft on its own starts at $30,000 from the studios that publish a number for it, and the three studios at the top of that circuit declare minimums over $100,000. Until now that was simple arithmetic, not taste — which is why no US law firm has ever owned one.

AI production is what moved that line. A 360° orbit around a subject used to mean a motion-control robot at $5,000 a day, a blacked-out stage, and a crew at $3,000–8,000 more. The same shot is now a rendering cost. Nothing about the craft got cheaper to design — the filming did, and that is the entire reason this price exists.

What your firm ends up holding is a six-figure-calibre digital asset: the site prospects remember after the consultation, the one that keeps clients on the page and brings them back — and a first impression not one attorney you compete with can put in front of them.
