## FAQ

### Why is PitchWorx so much cheaper than Penji?

Two reasons. First, we're based in New Delhi, pricing arbitrage is real, but the senior designers on your work have spent 10+ years on Fortune 500 brands. Second, AI agents handle the exploration phase, so senior time goes to craft rather than to producing variations from scratch. Same craft, smaller cost base.

### Is the work quality comparable to Penji?

Penji has 1000+ five-star reviews and a strong portfolio. So do we, 13 years of work for Bloomberg, PepsiCo, Samsung, Amway, Aviva, and 500+ other brands. The 7-day trial is the honest answer here: send a real brief and judge the output yourself.

### How does Penji's AI compare to PitchWorx's AI agents?

Penji's AI marketing language describes 'task routing' and 'quality checks.' PitchWorx publishes the actual workflow: AI agents brainstorm directions, generate first drafts and option sets, and a senior designer reviews and finalises every piece. AI is a production accelerant, not a delivery channel, humans ship the work.

### Is the 'one task at a time' limit the same?

Penji's lower tiers cap concurrent active tasks. PitchWorx Creative Assist gives 2 active requests at a time for $699/mo, keeping the queue simple without pushing teams into a larger tier.

### What about turnaround?

Both promise fast turnaround. PitchWorx usually returns everyday requests within 72 hours and breaks larger work into milestones with senior review.

### Does PitchWorx do everything Penji does?

Yes for the core stack: graphic design, motion, brand, presentations, social, web, and illustration. Penji bundles front-end dev and email deployment on higher tiers; PitchWorx does web design but not full-stack engineering hours.
