How we work

We build AI systems. Then we run them.

Two pricing paths designed for small to mid-cap firms ($30M–$100M revenue). Pick the one that fits how you measure value.

No generic packages. Every project is scoped to your workflow.

Pricing models

Two paths, same outcome.

Build + retainer is the default for operating teams. Performance-based pricing is available when the outcome is measurable and revenue-attached.

Path A

Build + retainer

A fixed-scope build paid in milestones, then a monthly retainer to operate and improve what we built.

  • Build scoped into fixed milestones — each with a price attached up front
  • You pay per milestone, only after it ships and you accept it
  • Monthly retainer covers monitoring, model tuning, incident response, and additions
  • Retainer grows as we add new agents/automations to your stack
Best for:Operating teams with budget for retainer-based vendors. Most engagements default here.
Path B

Performance-based

We share upside on the outcome the system produces. Lower up-front cost, aligned incentives.

  • Reduced or zero up-front build cost in exchange for outcome-share
  • Outcome metric defined together at scoping (pipeline, revenue, hours saved)
  • Reporting on the metric is part of the system from day one
  • Available for AEO, lead-gen, and revenue-attached automations
Best for:Founder-led firms in our ICP ($30M–$100M revenue) where the outcome is measurable and revenue-attached.

Build. Operate. Expand.

A simple model that scales with your business. No surprises, no scope creep, no systems left unmanaged.

01

Build

Scoped into milestones. Billed per milestone.

Every engagement starts with a scoped build. We break the work into fixed milestones, attach a price to each one, and only invoice after a milestone ships and you accept it. No money moves until something works.

  • Discovery and process mapping
  • Milestone plan with a price per milestone
  • Development, testing, acceptance per milestone
  • Deployment and go-live support
02

Operate

Monthly retainer. We run what we built.

Once it is live, we operate it. Monitoring, tuning, and improving everything we built. You get a dedicated team without hiring one. AI systems need ongoing attention and we handle all of it.

  • System monitoring and health checks
  • Performance optimization
  • Model updates and prompt tuning
  • Bug fixes and incident response
03

Expand

New need? We scope the next build.

As your needs grow, we build more. Each new system adds to the retainer because it adds to what we manage. Over time, you get a compounding technology layer without hiring a team to maintain it.

  • New agent or automation builds
  • Integrations with additional systems
  • Scaling existing workflows
  • Retainer grows with your stack

Why a retainer?

AI is not a one-time install. It is infrastructure that needs a team behind it.

AI systems need operations

Models change, APIs update, edge cases appear. Automation is not a one-time install. It is infrastructure that needs monitoring, tuning, and improvement.

We built it, we know it best

The team that designed your system is the best team to operate it. No knowledge transfer gaps, no onboarding a new vendor, no context loss.

Compounding value over time

Each new system we add builds on the last. Shared infrastructure, shared monitoring, shared context. The more we manage, the more efficient it gets.

No hiring, no managing

You get a full engineering team on retainer. No recruiting, no onboarding, no overhead. Just results delivered monthly.

What we build.

Each of these can be a standalone build or added to an existing retainer.

Process Automation

Connect systems, eliminate manual data entry, automate repetitive workflows. Rule-based logic for structured operations.

AI Automation

Document processing, email classification, content analysis. Cloud AI for unstructured data that rules cannot handle.

AI Agents

Autonomous systems that reason and act. Handle complex multi-step workflows, make decisions, and operate 24/7.

Private AI

Self-hosted AI for regulated industries. Complete data sovereignty, HIPAA and SEC compliant. Your data never leaves your infrastructure.

Custom Applications

Full-stack web applications, dashboards, portals, and internal tools built to integrate with your AI systems and automations.

AEO + Performance

Answer Engine Optimization at scale, available on performance-based pricing. Pay on outcome metrics like pipeline or revenue.
