## Practice Model

Sightbox is not an agency. We are a Portfolio Narrative Practice (PNP) — a specialized firm that treats narrative architecture as a first-class discipline. We sell judgment in structured engagements, not hours. Every engagement adds to a living methodology library that compounds across our portfolio.

We operate with a codified, agent-leveraged substrate. Our methodology library, diagnostic instruments, and structured data systems mean that expertise compounds outside any individual practitioner. The diagnosis itself stays human-led permanently.
