How agencies are chosen
Every agency here is picked by hand, and the work comes first: the quality, craft and originality of what a studio actually makes. Beyond that, the list weighs the strength of the case studies, reputation and industry recognition, the client roster, depth of specialization, the studio’s own brand and site, and sustained output over years rather than one lucky campaign. No one can pay for a listing or a better position. Sponsored cards, where they appear, are labeled and sit outside the curated list. Read the full methodology.
