Clutch or an agency

Send your agency the report, or ask Clutch.

Both work: Clutch's report is written to be handed to your agency, or you change the site yourself by asking.

Clutch and an agency, on the same five claims.

Where each is best

Choose it if

Clutch:Every change you want is a ticket

Your agency:The agency writes your copy and your campaigns, and the site is one of its jobs

Clutch:You want to approve a change the same day you ask for it

Your agency:Your reviews need a second pair of eyes before anything goes live

Clutch:You want every publish graded and the report in your own hands

Your agency:Your agency already runs Clutch for its clients, so the report lands on its desk

The five claims

Changed by asking

Clutch:Ask, or drop a pin on the line. The agent prepares the draft and never publishes; you press Publish.

Your agency:The agency's developer makes it from a ticket. A basic care plan includes one or two small edits a month. (Eight Hats, 28 Aug 2026)

You approve every change

Clutch:You, every time. The agent prepares the draft and never publishes.

Your agency:The agency reviews on staging, then you approve. (Eight Hats, 28 Aug 2026)

What a change costs

Clutch:An ask and an approval: no ticket and no quote. Each change is priced when it finishes and paid in AI credits.

Your agency:The retainer's hours, or a per-page fee of USD 150 to 600. (PixelCrayons, Oct 2026)

Graded before it goes live

Clutch:Publish grades the changed pages on find, understand, act and performance, and fixes what the document owns first.

Your agency:The public grade is yours to run on the site it built; the report is written to be handed over. (Read 23 Oct 2026)

Hosting and SSL included

Clutch:Hosting and SSL come with a site, served from Cloudflare Workers and R2.

Your agency:The agency's host or a resold line; WordPress care plans resell hosting at 3 to 5× cost. (WP Pro Host, 5 Apr 2026)

The agency column says what an agency does on a care plan, from the plans' own published terms, dated.

The report

Clutch writes the report so your agency can act on it.

If you like your agency, keep it and send it the report. Agencies that run Clutch get the report on their own desk.

The report for meadowbendapts.com, graded C. Send to your agency opens a mail with the first three fixes and the link to the report; nothing is sent from the page.

150

USD, the low end of a per-page or per-template fee

PixelCrayons, Oct 2026

An agency's per-page change starts at USD 150.

The same change

Clutch makes one change to 24 community pages from a single ask.

The change is the October special on every community page of Harbor Residential, a fictional 24-community portfolio. Clutch drafts it and you approve it.

  1. The prompt

    Agency: A ticket: the special, the pages, the date it should be live.

    Clutch: One sentence in the site's thread.

  2. What painted first

    Agency: A scope and a quote, then the change on staging.

    Clutch: The draft of the 24 changed pages, in the site's own design, under the ask.

  3. What was invented

    Agency: Nothing; the developer writes what the ticket says.

    Clutch: Nothing. The agent invents no facts; the special reads exactly as you typed it.

  4. Whether a pin landed

    Agency: No pin; a ticket thread.

    Clutch: A pin is a marker you drop on the line you want changed. Here the ask named the pages, so no pin was needed; you pressed Approve.

In a browser on harborres.com/communities, Dana asks: "Add the October special to every community page: one month free on a 12-month lease." Clutch answers "Changed 24 community pages. Here is the draft." with a draft card for the October special on 24 pages; the first community's line reads "1 month free". She presses Approve; then the draft is graded on find, understand, act and performance, published, and live.

One grader

One public grader reads an agency-built site and a Clutch site.

The best-graded community site the board credits to an agency, as the grader names it, beside a published Clutch site. The agency's name is not printed on this page.
