Case studies

Verifiable cases, and what we do not have yet

We prefer to publish little and be able to prove all of it. A client case goes on this page when the client authorizes it in writing — never before.

Illustration: the three lines of the house — system, campaign and studio.

  • Office in Edificio San Miguel, downtown Ciudad del Este
  • We work in Spanish, Portuguese and English
  • Scope, date and price in writing before we start
  • The same team runs a city portal in Brazil, live today

City portal — Búzios, Brazil

The founding team built and runs the Búzios city portal: local news, a business guide and an audience that arrives through organic search, not through ads. It is the whole operation — writing, publishing, infrastructure and ranking — sustained for years by the same people who are here now. It is live at buziosdigital.com, and it is the blueprint we are following in the Paraguayan chapter. Búzios Digital LTDA is a separate legal entity with a different ownership structure: the same team, not the same company.

A podcast studio in operation

A room rented self-service with automated recording: the model was proven in Búzios and now runs in Ciudad del Este. Three published shows come out of it — Búzios Now, O Peso da História and Café na Palavra, the last one by Hugo himself, a partner here — all on YouTube, with episodes you can listen to now. We do not publish listener counts: YouTube renders that number on the client and we could not read it from a source. Anyone who wants to measure the size is one click away.

This site is the case you can audit without asking us: three published languages with key parity verified by script, Guarani held back by automated checks until it is genuinely translated, a structured-data graph with stable identifiers, complete HTML without JavaScript, and an office map generated at build time so no visit leaves a trace on another domain. We publish how it was built, with enough detail for someone else to review it.

How this site was built

Our criteria

What counts as a case here

Four rules. They are written down so you can hold us to them if we ever break one.

Written permission, every time

A client's work goes on this page once the client signs off on it. Without that, nothing is published: not the name, not the logo, not a screenshot with the brand blurred out. And it is not a good-faith promise: the system that publishes this page refuses to put a case online while the authorization box is unchecked.

It opens in a browser

Every case here has a public address: you open it today, from wherever you are, without asking us for anything. We do not write "a client in the sector" or "a regional company we cannot name": a case you cannot open is a story, not evidence.

Numbers carry a date and a source

If we cannot say where a number comes from and when we checked it, we do not write it. And when the number exists but the primary source is not confirmed yet, it stays flagged as under verification on our data page and we do not use it to sell. It is slower and it makes the page thinner. It is also the only thing that lets you check us.

What you will not find here

Client counts, years of experience, testimonials, logos of brands we met once, growth charts with no axis. None of it can be verified from the outside, and all of it is easy to invent. We would rather keep this page short and undecorated.

The portal and the studio named here are run by Búzios Digital — a separate company in the same group, separately owned. Open the agency's site and see who we mean.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask after reading this page

Why do you have so few cases?

Because we cannot prove the others. The company is new in Ciudad del Este — the Paraguayan tax registration is still being processed — and the team's earlier work is in Brazil, under a separate legal entity with different ownership. Telling that story as if it were CDE DIGITAL's would be the first unsourced claim on this site.

Can I talk to someone who has hired you?

There is no published client case yet, so we will not hand you a contact arranged for the occasion. What you can do today: open buziosdigital.com, listen to the three shows the team produces — each one linked on the studio page — and audit this site line by line. When a client authorizes it, they will be here by name.

Will my project become your marketing material?

Only if you authorize it in writing, and that authorization says what gets shown and what does not. Saying no costs you nothing: same price, same delivery date, same attention. And if you authorize it today and change your mind later, the case comes off the page.

Do you work with a competitor of mine?

We do not publish our client list, so nobody learns from us who hires us. If you need exclusivity in your sector and your area, we discuss it before we start and, if we agree, it goes into the written scope, with an end date and clear limits. What we will not do is promise it verbally.

With no client cases, how do I evaluate you?

Look at the one piece of work that is already ours: this site. We publish how it was built, step by step, every number we state has a source and a date on the data page, and you can run your own address through our free tool and read part of what we deliver in an audit. Then judge.
