How we work together

From the first call
to running in production.

Six steps, following the four formats. Most projects skip at least one.

    We clarify your goal, your starting point and the right format, or the route finder points the way.

    30 minutes · free
  2. (02)

    Workshop

    If the project is still open: a facilitated session that ends with a ranked list of your projects.

    ½–2 days · fixed price
  3. (03)

    Scope and proposal

    We define the scope, outcome and dates. You get a fixed price instead of an hourly estimate.

    Proposal within 48 hours

Services FAQ

How the
model works.

How are your services organized?

By six goals: get found in AI answers, take routine work off your team, launch a product, hand tasks to AI agents, make your systems work together, and decide where AI pays off. Each is delivered in one of four formats: Workshop, Setup, Sprint or Build & Support.

Which format fits my project?

If the project is still open, start with a workshop of half a day to two days. A bounded system or review is a setup of one to two weeks. A product or agent is built in a four-week sprint. Ongoing development runs as Build & Support. The route finder recommends one in two questions.

What does working together cost?

Workshops have fixed prices, listed above. Setups, sprints and build stages get a fixed price after scoping, with the proposal ready within 48 hours. We do not bill by the hour for projects.

How quickly can we start?

The intro call takes 30 minutes. After scoping, the proposal follows within 48 hours, and workshops can usually be booked at short notice.

What happens after launch?

You receive the code, documentation and a walkthrough, and bugs reported within 30 days of final delivery are fixed free of charge. After that, we support the system on request through Build & Support.

Who owns the code and results?

Once paid in full, you hold the usage rights to everything built specifically for you. Third-party components and our pre-existing tools are excluded; the agreement sets out the details.
