For Squarespace agencies

Give your client sites the search they deserve.

Squarespace is a great canvas. But once a client site grows past a handful of pages, its built-in search starts missing things. PDFs. Member-only content. Product variants.

Monocle fills that gap. One install, works everywhere you build, and you earn a share of every client you bring along.

The gap

Your clients need more than the native search.

Squarespace's search got a real upgrade in 2026. It's faster, it indexes more. For small sites, it's fine.

But for the sites your agency actually builds, it still hits a wall.

Can't search PDFs

Brochures, price lists, technical specs are all invisible to the native index.

Can't see member-only pages

Everything behind the paywall is dark to search. Your members can't find what they paid for.

No product variants or filters

Size, tag, SKU, colour are all collapsed down to the product title.

Returns links, not answers

Ten blue links, no summary. Your visitor still has to click and read.

What Monocle does for your agency

Three things change once Monocle is in your toolkit.

01

Search that raises the whole site.

Turnkey, typo-tolerant, AI-powered search. It reads PDFs, image alt-text, member-only pages, and product variants. You ship a noticeably better site without writing any code.

Which client sites benefit most

A quick check when you're scoping a new project.

Also the line you send your client when they ask “do we really need this?”

E-commerce with deep catalogs

Variant-heavy product lines · large SKU counts · PDF spec sheets · image alt-text

Native search shows the product page. Monocle indexes every variant, every spec sheet, and every alt tag, so “black, size 38, wide fit” actually returns the right SKU.

Client line

Your catalog stops being decorative and starts being shoppable.

Reviews, archives, and catalog sites

Whisky reviews · vintage collectibles · vet equipment · sound libraries · art archives

These sites live or die by search. Native search returns the page. Monocle returns the item.

Client line

Every review, product, and entry becomes instantly findable, no matter how deep it sits.

§

Learning platforms and course sites

Tutorials · lesson libraries · reference material · professional development hubs

Students need the right lesson, not your course structure.

Client line

Search that points students straight at the lesson they need.

Photo, video, and portfolio studios

Deep project archives where every shoot, client, or case study matters

Native search misses projects whose names aren't in the title.

Client line

Every project searchable by subject, location, style, or client name.

Churches, nonprofits, and community sites

Sermon archives · event calendars · resource hubs · program listings

Your visitors come looking for one specific thing. They shouldn't have to scroll for it.

Client line

Members and visitors find the right sermon, event, or resource without scrolling past fifty pages.

Museums and libraries

Collections · inventories · archive metadata · PDF catalogs

Deep, slow-moving collections that nobody can browse by scrolling. Monocle reads the metadata and the PDFs so every item becomes findable.

Client line

Every object in the collection, one search away.

A quick scoping check

If you answer yes to any of these, Monocle earns its place on the site

Does the site host PDFs? Gated content? More than fifty pages? A product catalog with variants? An archive that grows monthly? If any of these, it's a fit.

Client line

Send this list to the client when they ask “do we really need this?”

The Agency Portal

One login, every client site.

Built for agencies that don't want to babysit credentials.

Meet Felix and Sebastian

Monocle is built by two people. You'll be on a call with one of them.

Felix and Sebastian met at university. They've been building software together ever since, always the kind they'd use themselves. Monocle is their current focus. DoNoHarm, their parent studio, is where this and a couple of other tools live.

Felix is the face of Monocle in the Squarespace community. He writes for the Circle Pro blog and shows up regularly in the official forum answering search questions. He's probably already answered someone in your orbit.

Sebastian is the engineer behind the product. Hybrid keyword and semantic matching, typo tolerance, PDF indexing, the Agency Portal. If it's technical, Sebastian built it. He rarely joins sales calls, but he's behind every release.

Twenty minutes, no deck, no pitch. Bring your stickiest client site, your portal questions, or your “would this even work for X?” case.

Questions agencies actually ask

Straight answers, no sales-rep fog.

These are the six questions that come up on almost every demo call. If yours isn't here, bring it to the call.

Book a call with Felix
Does my client need a Monocle account?+

No. Send them a payment link from the Agency Portal and they subscribe without creating one. You keep the keys.

What happens if a client cancels?+

Their subscription ends and Monocle reverts to the free tier on that site. Everything keeps working, just without paid features. You stay on your Agency Portal with full access.

How does the affiliate payout work?+

30% of every paid subscription you bring in, every month, for as long as the client stays. Once you're in the program, any payment link you send is automatically attributed to you.

Can I add client sites that are still in trial?+

Yes. Monocle's Agency Plans let sites stay on trial-mode pricing as long as they're on a squarespace.com subdomain. Once the site goes live on a custom domain, standard pricing kicks in.

Can my client take over later if they want to self-manage?+

Yes. They can create their own Monocle account and take over billing and admin any time. You can stay on as a collaborator if they invite you back.

Which Squarespace sites does Monocle work on?+

Every standard Squarespace 7.0 and 7.1 site, including Circle Pro accounts. Cargo Collective sites are supported too.

Final call

Twenty minutes. One site. A straight answer.

Bring a client site to the call. We'll walk through it together, show you the Agency Portal, and answer your pricing and affiliate questions live.
