Monogram is a digital agency from Atlanta. We thrive at the intersection of great design, cutting-edge technologies, and providing the best service. We help you share your story, empowering you to make your dent in the universe.
Websites
As a composable-first agency, we have been huge proponents of converting monolithic, slow, and fundamentally insecure websites and web applications into fast, modern, CDN-driven web experiences that pass Google’s Core Web Vitals score with flying colors.
UX & UI Design
The best products depend on great design as the starting point for an excellent user experience because we believe design is not just how it looks— design is how it works. We carry an obsessive focus ensuring every pixel, color, and interaction is perfectly delightful.
Web Apps
We design and develop digital products with the latest technologies such as Next.js, Svelte, Vercel Serverless Functions, Nuxt.js, Firebase, and more. From an idea to a globally-scalable app, Monogram ensures your vision comes to life with the best design and development possible.
How we use Vercel
We love deploying on Vercel. It powers dozens of web applications, and we’re still discovering innovative, new use-cases for the MACH methodology: from education software to ecommerce, virtual events, MVPs, and more.
Our ideal project
We don’t focus on any particular industry, we focus on success.
We love building blazing-fast static websites with headless CMS, ecommerce, and composable platforms.
Since May 2021, Google factors Core Web Vitals scores in SEO ranking and indexing. We help bring organizations into the green, utilizing full SEO potential.
We love building modern, JavaScript-based web applications that are equal parts good design and good code.
We enjoy converting legacy web apps made with WordPress, Drupal, Magento, and more to modern frameworks like Next.js, Svelte, and Astro.
We want to use our web expertise to help your business be faster, more secure, and easier to manage

client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m a product manager at eko, an interactive video company. We make digital experiences and tools that help our customers introduce new ways to shop online.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Monogram?
We hired Monogram to help us imagine some designs for the digital experiences we were building.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Monogram provided UI design services. Since we had a clear description of what we wanted, the team’s main deliverable was a design system that would be flexible to meet the different business experience needs and requirements of our company.
As a result, their work became a starting point for a lot of digital experiences we were creating. More importantly, the design system took a lot of the discovery work and was able to deliver components that became part of our larger design system and library.
What is the team composition?
I only worked with TJ (Creative Director & Partner).
How did you come to work with Monogram?
I worked with TJ in the past, and his work really impressed me, so I was excited to utilize his product design skills. I was extremely amazed that they were experts in using Figma, the leading and most collaborative design tool available. Above all, from what I had seen in their previous work, I was looking forward to expanding their intuitive sense in design.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent $20,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
Our partnership ran from May–July 2021.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We didn’t have any metrics during our partnership, but anecdotally, everything looked and felt cleaner and simple because of Monogram’s work. They produced a beautifully understated design that did a really good job of telling people what they could and couldn’t click on in a very complex product stock — making interactive video shopping experiences great.
Additionally, I was very impressed with how quickly they got up to speed on what we were asking from them. They were also able to adjust their work depending on our requests without even really knowing everything.
How did Monogram perform from a project management standpoint?
They were fast and responsive which allowed us to complete a lot of work in a short amount of time. The Monogram team was also very professional, and we had a close collaboration.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Monogram was able to fit into our existing processes and identify complications within it. On top of that, they provided custom and effective solutions that solved our issues.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I hoped that I wasn’t as plugged into their process during the partnership. However, at the end of the day, that allowed them to produce great designs.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Be upfront and clear about your requirements. Make sure that all deadlines are established so that they can be staffed and resourced appropriately to get their job done.

After conducting research, Monogram developed a communications strategy and a pitch deck to reflect the brand image of a venture fund. They designed and built a website using the Jamstack as well as a CMS.
By investing time upfront to understand the project’s goals, Monogram ensured the deliverables achieved them. The skillful team produced deliverables that effectively communicated the brand’s desired image. The website’s solid architecture supports its generation of a notable number of requests.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the managing director of a venture fund.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Monogram?
We wanted to attract new companies conducting various types of business. Although we’re in the business segment, we sell to a wide spectrum of people. We needed to attract investors and raise funds too. We wanted to portray a certain image and needed help.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Monogram helped with market research and took the time to understand us. Their team gave us a few options and then built a method for us to communicate the image we wanted to portray to the market. Often we would propose ideas and then their team would come back with suggestions that made more sense. Their team ensured our pitch deck was also in sync with this image.
Their team designed the website and managed backend development. They used the Jamstack to build the architecture because we wanted architecture that is future-ready when google changes its approach to SEO later this year. We also got an easy-to-use CMS as well. We still send them requests if we want to make changes on the website, but the content is managed by our team through CMS.
What is the team composition?
We worked with an account manager, a developer, and a designer. I primarily spoke with their account manager.
How did you come to work with Monogram?
I found them through a recommendation when we wanted to create a new website. I was just exploring, so I decided to call them.
What is the status of this engagement?
We worked together between September–December 2020. Monogram quickly launched the website’s first version and then it only took another 30 days for them to align it with our new image.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Monogram has a knack for knowing how to present a business. We're satisfied because they helped us portray the friendly image we need when approaching new companies along with maturity when approaching seasoned investors. Their team took the time to understand our intent. We were very impressed and they certainly exceeded expectations.
Our website’s core vital scores are all in the green, hitting around the high 90s. The architecture’s good and secure, and I’m so glad we didn’t use WordPress or Drupal. Monogram provides traffic information. I’m secure there because we receive 1–2 inbound requests almost every few weeks from the website, which is pretty high for our type of B2B businesses.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Monogram took the time to understand what we wanted.
Are there any areas they could improve?
As they’re awesome, Monogram will grow. I hope that as their team grows, Monogram doesn’t lose their current touch.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
If you want to build an inspirational website, choose Monogram because their team wants to understand your goals. If you just want an informational website, you could probably go elsewhere.

BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the co-founder of a play-by-play sports and entertainment app that allows users to predict and select the upcoming play in major sports games or the upcoming scene in entertainment such as TV shows.
Accurate guesses earn users points, allow them to climb the leaderboard, and ultimately win free cash prizes and entertainment experiences. We’re not a gambling platform because there’s only money to be won— users don’t need to put down a single penny to play.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Monogram?
They’re our sole developer, so they’ve created our web experience and are working on our native mobile app experience.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
They’re developing native mobile apps for both iOS and Android. Additionally, they have a branding team that has taken control of the design for each platform. On the branding end, they’ve written content and created videos for the platform.
What is the team composition?
I work with four people, two developers, a sales-focused CEO, and a website creator.
How did you come to work with Monogram?
My co-founder had worked with them in the past, and Monogram is currently developing for a few entities of his. It was an option and choice that he pushed for. After meeting them and speaking with the team, we realized that we didn’t need to talk with any other providers.
What is the status of this engagement?
We’ve been working with them since July 2020. In terms of development, we’re about a week out from completion on the mobile apps and will be in the queue for app store approval in December 2020.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
This engagement exceeded all my expectations for a development experience. When we have requests, large or small, they put changes into action the same day. The amount of rigor in the testing stages provides a clean and easy experience. They’ve tested time and time again to ensure that the user experience is fabulous. We haven’t caught any bugs in the experience to this point.
Their branding work and efficiency really went a long way as well.
How did Monogram perform from a project management standpoint?
Their communication is incredible. We’re always communicating, despite the remote work environment. We had regular meetings over Zoom and communicated throughout the day using Slack.
During our Zoom calls, they’re always engaged and showing their face on video. Other partners of mine prefer written communication, but this team can really engage over video meetings.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their branding team has exceeded our wildest expectations with their speed and efficacy in development. From concept to beta, they only took about four and a half weeks. It’s amazing what they were able to develop within that timeframe.
From a testing perspective, their diligence and attention to detail have been second to none. Their work is very high-quality.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I can’t think of anything that I could ask them to improve upon. They speak both the language of sales and code. That’s not easy to find in a partner.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Be open to feedback and ideas from them. As a startup, our ideas and vision can shift. They’ve elevated our experience past what we thought was possible in this timeframe.

Monogram developed a website for a nonprofit. Handling all aspects of design and coding for the site, they have implemented content as needed for the client and maintain contact for minor updates.
The team’s industry expertise facilitated a successful site launch and has helped the client grow since the start of their partnership. While they are not constantly reaching out about the project, Monogram has proven to be responsive and has consistently added useful functionality to the site.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m a co-founder of a nonprofit in memory of our son. We raise money for families that have been impacted by pediatric cancer or special needs.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Monogram?
We hired them to create our website.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
They helped us create our website and small index cards that tell our story and explain our services. We’re still in contact with them about the website design and updates as needed. They were responsible for all of the site design and programming. I provide them with content and links to social media sites. From there, they implement the content into the website. At this point, they make small updates and SEO adjustments.
What is the team composition?
I work with DJ (Managing Director), TJ (Creative Director), and Claudio (Director of Technology).
How did you come to work with Monogram?
We met another one of their clients in the hospital because their son was also battling cancer. They recommended them, so we reached out to DJ who was able to help us out. I was considering other providers but thought that they could deliver long-term for us and had impressive experience in web design.
How much have you invested with them?
They work with us to meet our needs as a nonprofit. At this point, we pay a small monthly rate for updates and SEO work. In total, we’ve spent about $5,000 with them.
What is the status of this engagement?
We’ve been working with them since the summer of 2018.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We launched the site in August 2019, and their team has followed through on all of our requests. They’re easy to brainstorm ideas with because they’re very knowledgeable when it comes to design work. That allows them to foresee needs, recommend direction, and help us grow. They’ve been helpful in setting up our donations portal on the website, setting the groundwork to allow us to grow.
How did Monogram perform from a project management standpoint?
Unless I reach out, I don’t hear from them too often. Sometimes, we are challenged with communicating our ideas to them because they’re often thinking about the big picture. Because our organization is very personal to us, we had specific requirements that may not have been communicated to them as well as we would have liked.
However, I get quick responses to my emails, and they’ll set up a meeting if I request one. I would like for there to be a bit more follow up. Sometimes we go a few months without speaking.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They believe in our organization and our story, seeing our vision and working with us on our budget. Their team has been able to make our mission come to life with what we had available. We’ve built a genuine friendship, rather than just a business relationship.
Are there any areas they could improve?
If I need information, I have to follow up with them. It would be great to see them take initiative on that front.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Make sure you have your logo, images, and vision fleshed out before starting the project. They’re able to tweak things here and there, but they aren’t necessarily the team to approach with a blank canvas.

Following the creation of a website, Monogram developed the front- and backend of a web app for a real estate software company. From the ground up, they built the platform entirely in a Cloud environment.
Monogram delivered an exceptional platform that exceeded expectations and impressed users with its satisfying design. The team produced timely deliverables even when faced with changes to the requirements. They transform ideas into cost-effective solutions, which ensures an ongoing partnership.

BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the CEO of a software company called WyzeGyde. We offer a software application for real estate agents. I run the day-to-day sales operations of the company, selling the app to real estate agents.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Monogram?
I also own a real estate brokerage and the software package started as a tool for my real estate agencies. Eventually, we decided the software could work for agents outside of my firm. We wanted to build software for agents to be able to offer options to sellers such as traditional listings or getting multiple offers on their properties from different buyers.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Monogram developed our web application, which was a SaaS system for real estate agents. All of their development took place in the Cloud. We gave them an idea of our big picture, but their team did all of the design work.
To this day, they're adding to the platform. We give them a concept and then they create wireframes as well as estimate the price. We then make a decision on whether or not to move forward.
What is the team composition?
There were three fulltime people from Monogram who worked on this project in addition to a part-time teammate who wrote code.
How did you come to work with Monogram?
They built the website for my real estate brokerage back in 2017.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent about $150,000 on this project.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started on this project in February 2019, and it wrapped up in December 2019. It would’ve wrapped up quicker, but we made changes throughout the process.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
It’s an amazing product, so we're satisfied. Right now, we have about 750 users. Everybody absolutely loves the design. Agents who use the platform love it too.
Their team over-delivered. I have zero complaints about our engagement.
How did Monogram perform from a project management standpoint?
We communicated via Slack and Zoom. We also had monthly face-to-face meetings.
They delivered on every timeline. We had situations pop up when we put them under pressure to deliver products. Their team never missed a deadline and pushed hard to get tasks done when we needed them to be done.
What did you find most impressive about them?
We like that we can come to them with real estate ideas. Their team then paints a clear picture of what that idea would look like from the tech side. Their team was creative when giving us options that worked within our budget.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, they’ve done an amazing job.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Monogram did everything that we asked them to do. They threw in features that we didn’t even request.

Monogram led the rebranding process for a hardware store. They built a new website using Prismic and a responsive design, crafted design elements, and made print materials such as business cards.
The client’s new site and brand presence have received positive feedback from customers, leading to more work for Monogram. The team responds quickly to all requests with next-day turnaround, sticks to promised deadlines, and adapts to the client’s needs. Their attention to detail stands out.

transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the VP of marketing at Delaney Hardware, a door hardware company.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Monogram?
We needed to completely rebrand ourselves.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Monogram helped with the complete redesign and overhaul of the website and the architecture of our product database. We had an existing site, but we needed to start from scratch. They used Prismic for the backend as a headless CMS and built a responsive design on the frontend.
Everything is customized from the font to the color-coding and style. They also implemented add-ons, data, web hosting, and security to reassure investors. Lastly, they created a Google Analytics dashboard for me to share that data with my management team.
In addition, Monogram worked with on a lot of the creative. They brainstormed elements such as our patterns and colors and created business cards, notecards, and other print media. It helps us step up to the professional polished look we’re going for.
What is the team composition?
DJ (Managing Director) handles the account side, ensuring that the timeline and management are going smoothly. TJ (Creative Director) works on the graphics when we’re doing design elements. Claudio (Director of Technology) does the coding, such as creating the analytics dashboard for us.
How did you come to work with Monogram?
Our CFO knows TJ and had recommended that I reach out to Monogram. I reached out to four companies for a quote on our first job – the rebrand and website – but I felt a level of comfort talking with Monogram. They were very professional with a good portfolio, but more importantly, they had experience working with companies in our industry. They also came highly recommend from their references, which put me further at ease.
What is the status of this engagement?
The major website project started in November 2017, but we did some little projects prior to that on our design elements. We’ve done many projects over the last couple of years. They also provide consulting about our family of brands and our work there.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The main thing we’re looking at is our brand perception. What Monogram has been able to create is fantastic. Their brand work elevated our brand presence for current customers and potential customers. We’ve had fantastic reviews about our website and what we created from a design standpoint with them.
There has been an increase in traffic, but we’ll likely see more growth in those metrics once we start our lead generation and digital advertising efforts internally. At this stage, it’s more about brand recognition, perception, and elevation.
I can’t say enough good things about Monogram. I’ve never met a company before that cares about their work over time. They really take care of their clients. If I need a new feature or a change to the site by tomorrow, they’ll get it done. Even if we have just a small request, they make sure that they would take care of us. It’s great to have a trusted brand partner from a digital perspective. I would recommend Monogram to anyone.
How did Monogram perform from a project management standpoint?
DJ handles that aspect very attentively. He will make sure he returns every call and text and that nothing goes unanswered. The team is collectively on it as well. If they promise a timeline, unless I hold them up, they will deliver in that timeframe.
When we have ongoing projects, they keep me updated weekly. For a larger project, like the one we’re about to undertake, we have more regular communication — daily or every other day.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re very trustworthy. Monogram always has our back. They have pride in their work and make sure our success is their success. They won’t let something go undone even if it’s on their time.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, I just want them to continue doing what they’re doing. I’ve worked in companies in the past that do great in the beginning and then fall apart over time. Monogram hasn’t done that at all. I hope they continue doing a great job, bringing us leading trends, and thinking of the next thing and project we can improve on.
