The consulting model was built around billing time. Ours is built around moving a number you already track — and structuring the engagement, the pricing, and the handoff so that the result belongs to your team.
Every engagement follows the same discipline, whether it ends at the roadmap or runs through a full build.
A fixed-price Readiness Audit scores where AI moves your numbers and what’s blocking it. One to two weeks, senior-led, published pricing. Sometimes the audit is the whole engagement — and that’s a good outcome.
The roadmap orders use cases by expected return and readiness — not by what demos well. The first build comes out scoped, priced, and with its success metric already defined and baselined.
Your staff are co-builders in every working session. Their knowledge is what the system runs on; their fluency is what makes it survive us leaving. Open standards, your stack, no lock-in.
After go-live, the agreed metric is measured in your data over 30–90 days — not asserted in our slide deck. Where our fee has an outcome component, this is what it’s paid against.
Documentation, runbooks, and co-led sessions until your team can extend the capability without us. We measure success by whether you need us less next quarter, not more.
Decisions documented, systems explainable, review processes your team can run. Built to survive your customers’ questionnaires and your regulator’s questions — because trust closes deals.
The industry is moving from billing hours to pricing results — the largest consulting firms now earn a meaningful share of their fees on performance arrangements, and buyers increasingly expect it. We agree with the buyers. So our pricing follows a simple rule: the more measurable the value, the more of our fee we’re willing to put against it.
Audits and strategy are fixed-price. The scope is knowable, the deliverables are defined, and hourly billing there is a red flag — it usually means the offering isn’t productized. Audit pricing is published on the website; strategy is quoted flat before we start.
Implementation is a fixed base fee with an outcome component available. Where the audit has defined a clean metric — hours saved, cycle time cut, error rate down, cost per transaction — a portion of our fee rides on moving it, verified in your data over 30–90 days after go-live. And if a deliverable misses the success criteria we agreed to, we revise it at no additional charge.
We offer the outcome component; we don’t force it. Some metrics are too entangled with factors outside the build to price honestly, and we’ll say so in the audit rather than gamble your engagement on a number neither of us controls.
Fixed price, defined deliverables, published or quoted before we start. No hourly billing, ever.
Fixed base fee + optional outcome component against the metric defined in the audit, verified 30–90 days post go-live.
Deliverable misses the agreed success criteria? We revise it at no charge. Clear scope makes that a promise, not a risk.
We earn the right to build by proving what’s worth building. Some engagements end at the roadmap because we found a cheaper path — we’d rather lose the build contract than sell the wrong one.
The practitioner who scopes the engagement runs the engagement. No partner-at-the-pitch, graduate-at-the-standup switch.
The knowledge AI needs lives in the people who do the work. They’re in every session as co-builders — and what they help build, they keep.
Open standards, your data, your stack. Every deliverable is documented for the team that has to live with it — not for our renewal.
Fixed price, published on the site. Scored deliverable, 90-day roadmap, credited in full if we build together.
