Investment
What this costs, before you ask.
Every figure below is a starting point based on real work. After a discovery call, you receive one fixed price per phase in writing. If we estimate badly, we carry the risk.
Automation Sprint
One repetitive workflow in your company automated end to end, with the hours saved measured before and after.
- Automation audit ranking your workflows by hours saved and risk
- One workflow automated and connected to the tools you already use
- Evaluation set and accuracy baseline built from your real data
- Human review step wherever an error would be expensive
- Monthly running-cost projection before you commit
- Handover documentation and full source code ownership
- Further workflows, each quoted after the first proves its number
- AI provider usage, billed to accounts in your name
Validation Sprint
You have a product idea and need to know what it costs, how long it takes, and whether it should be built at all.
- Discovery workshops with you and your team
- Process mapping of how the work happens today
- System architecture and data model proposal
- Clickable prototype of the core workflow
- Costed, phased delivery plan
- Written recommendation, including 'do not build this'
- Production code
- Deployment or hosting setup
Product Build
Most commonA first production version of your own product, from an MVP to a connected web, mobile and admin platform a real operation depends on.
- Everything in the Validation Sprint
- Production web application and/or mobile app

- Monitoring of uptime, AI accuracy and running cost
- Monthly roadmap and priority review
- Direct access without a ticket queue

How billing works
Nothing on your invoice should ever be a surprise.
Fixed price per phase
You approve each phase's cost before it starts. If we estimate badly, that is our loss. We will not send you a surprise change order halfway through.
Payment against milestones
Typically 40% to begin, then payments as phases complete, with the final 20% at delivery. Larger engagements split further. Never 100% up front.
Change requests in writing
Small adjustments inside an agreed phase are absorbed. Anything that changes scope gets a written cost and timeline impact that you approve first.
Third-party costs billed to you directly
Hosting, domains, SMS, maps, AI API usage and store accounts sit in your own accounts, in your name. You see the real numbers and keep control if we part ways.
Pricing questions
Including the awkward ones.
