Engagements
We are a studio, not a platform, so there is no seat count and no usage tier. Engagements are scoped, quoted, and fixed before anyone starts building.
Models
Most clients begin with a discovery sprint and decide from there. Nothing obliges you to continue.
The cheapest way to find out whether the thing you want is worth building.
A defined system, delivered to production, with the source and infrastructure handed to you.
Senior engineers working inside your team, on your board, to your standards.
A senior technical voice in the room for the decisions that are expensive to reverse.
Every engagement is quoted after a scoping call. We do not publish a rate card because the number depends entirely on what you are building.
Commercials
Four commitments that apply to every engagement regardless of size.
You get a number before work starts. If we scoped it badly, that is our problem to absorb, not yours.
Longer builds are split into phases with a decision point at each boundary. You can stop at any of them.
Source, infrastructure, and documentation transfer at handover. Nothing we build needs us to keep running.
We take no referral fee from any vendor, model provider, or platform we recommend.
FAQ
Because the honest number depends on scope. A retrieval system over 500 clean documents and one over 5 million scanned pages are not the same project. We quote after a scoping call, and the quote is fixed.
It is a fixed fee agreed before we start, and it is the same for everyone at a given scope. Ask on a call and we will give you the number in that conversation.
Occasionally, as a partial substitution for a fee, and only where we would have taken the work anyway. It is not something we lead with.
On fixed-fee work, overruns caused by our estimation are ours to absorb. Scope changes you request are re-quoted before we act on them.
Yes. Project builds are phased with a decision point at each boundary, and retainers are month to month.
Invoiced per phase for project work, or monthly for retainers and embedded teams. Payment terms are agreed in the contract before the engagement starts.
Get started
One call is usually enough for us to tell you whether we are the right studio for it, and roughly what it would take.
