<!-- lastmod added 2026-08-01. It is a real date — the day these pages
     were last substantively edited — and it has to STAY real: a sitemap
     that reports every page as changed today, every day, is a signal
     crawlers learn to discount, and then the accurate ones stop counting
     too. Update the dates you actually changed, not all of them.

     Kept by hand, like everything else in this repo. There is no build
     step; if a page is added, add it here. -->

  <!-- /agencies, added 2026-08-17. It shipped unlinked and this note said
       so; it is linked from the marketing site now (the footer strip on
       all 27 pages, plus a section on /pricing and CTAs on /why-us,
       /how-it-works and the homepage), so the sitemap is no longer the
       ONLY way a crawler finds it. Still listed, still canonical, and it
       must never gain a noindex. Not in the header nav, deliberately —
       see the note at the top of agencies.html. -->
