Frequently Asked Questions

What Does Horizen Do?

Horizen is a private brand identity firm. We reveal world-class brands, cinematic film, identity, and messaging, then build the custom web, app, and AI infrastructure they live in. Brand identity, built like infrastructure.

Who Does Horizen Work With?

Founder-led companies ready to rebrand and grow into real scale. We work privately, generally on retainer, and often through partnership.

Do You Do the Branding or the Website?

Both, and that is the point. Without the site, the assets are a museum collection in a warehouse. We build the identity and the infrastructure it lives in, so the work lives where customers actually meet it.

What Makes Your Web Different?

We build from the source, in a design language we own, not on Squarespace, Wix, or WordPress. The work is led by a designer trained in Apple and Android system design.

What About Apps and AI?

Through Timatsu, our parent company, the team can extend an engagement with custom iOS and Android apps and AI, built on an open stack (Astro, deployed on Vercel), plus proprietary AI integrations and licensed third-party tools.

Can You Build Proprietary AI, a Custom App, or Backend?

Yes, through Timatsu. When a brand needs proprietary AI, a custom iOS or Android app, or backend infrastructure behind the identity, we bring in our parent company, Timatsu, to design and build it alongside the brand work. Tell us where you are headed and we will route it.

How Do Engagements Work?

Three tiers, Standard, Flagship, and Enterprise, private and on retainer. Standard starts at $10,000 plus a low monthly retainer, Flagship starts at $25,000, and Enterprise is by invitation. We set the scope together.
