PRICING / FORWARD-DEPLOYED AI

OUTCOME-PRICED. SHIPPED. MEASURED.

Four ways to engage, built as a progression. Start with a fixed-scope audit, ship your first workflow in a sprint, then retain or scale across the organization. You pay for deployed AI that runs in your operations — not a strategy deck.

PACKAGES

THE SERVICE LADDER, PRICED.

Audit to ship to scale. The audit is the recommended entry point, and what you spend on it is credited toward your first sprint.

Start hereRecommended

AI Workflow Audit

We map your highest-leverage workflows and hand back a deployment plan with ROI estimates — not a slide deck.

Price signal

From $5k, fixed scope — credited toward your first sprint

WHO IT'S FOR

Teams who know AI should be doing more of the manual work but need a concrete, costed plan before committing engineering.

WHAT YOU GET

  • Workflow inventory: where manual effort, latency, and error cost the most
  • Ranked deployment shortlist scored by leverage, feasibility, and risk
  • ROI estimate per candidate workflow (time, cost, throughput)
  • A staged build plan with integration points, controls, and a first-sprint target
  • A 60-minute readout with your team to align on the first build

Forward-Deployed Build Sprint

We embed with your team and ship one production AI workflow end-to-end, in weeks — running inside your stack, not a demo.

Price signal

Project-based — scoped from the audit

WHO IT'S FOR

Teams with a clear first workflow who want it deployed, instrumented, and in real use — not prototyped.

WHAT YOU GET

  • A forward-deployed engineer embedded in your workflow and tools
  • One production AI workflow built end-to-end against your real systems
  • Permission-aware integrations with your data, approvals, and audit trail
  • Instrumentation so you can see what it does and what it saves
  • Handover docs plus a path to expand or retain

AI Ops Retainer

Ongoing forward-deployed engineering: we run, iterate, and expand the AI you've deployed as your operations change.

Retained capacity — monthly, scoped to your footprint

WHO IT'S FOR

Teams with AI in production that needs an owner — to keep it reliable, tune it, and ship the next workflow.

WHAT YOU GET

  • Dedicated forward-deployed engineering capacity each month
  • Monitoring, reliability, and iteration on deployed workflows
  • New workflows shipped on a rolling cadence
  • Model, prompt, and integration upgrades as your stack evolves
  • A monthly review tied to the metrics that matter to you

Enterprise / Portfolio AI OS

A multi-team or portfolio-wide AI operating system, run by a dedicated forward-deployed pod that embeds across your organization.

Price signal

Custom

WHO IT'S FOR

Enterprises and portfolio operators standardizing how AI gets deployed, governed, and measured across many teams.

WHAT YOU GET

  • A dedicated forward-deployed pod across your teams or portfolio companies
  • A shared AI operating layer with reusable workflows and integrations
  • Governance, permissions, and audit standards applied org-wide
  • Per-team rollout, enablement, and measurement
  • An executive view of deployed AI, adoption, and outcomes

QUESTIONS

WHAT TEAMS ASK BEFORE THEY START.

Why start with the audit?

The audit returns a costed deployment plan with ROI estimates — the same artifact whether or not we build next. It is fixed-scope, from $5k, and credited toward your first sprint, so you commit engineering against evidence instead of a guess.

How is a sprint priced?

Sprints are project-based and scoped directly from the audit. We size against the one workflow you want shipped, the systems it touches, and the controls it needs — no open-ended hourly billing.

What does forward-deployed actually mean?

A senior engineer works inside your tools, data, and approval paths, then builds and ships the workflow into real use in your stack. No demo environment and no handoff to a deck — it runs where the work happens, and we stay until it works.

Do you sign DPAs and respect our permissions?

Yes. Every integration is permission-aware and built against your existing access controls, approvals, and audit trail. We design for operating reality before we write the system, and we will sign the agreements your security team requires.
