AI Systems Diagnostic

Understand the real problem before paying to build the wrong thing.

The free assessment points you in a direction. In the paid diagnostic, we look closely at how your team works, where time is being lost, what is breaking, and what is worth fixing first.

  1. 01

    Gather the facts

    We collect your current tools, workflows, owners, access needs, and known problems.

  2. 02

    See how work really happens

    We talk to the people doing the work and map every important step and handoff.

  3. 03

    Set the starting point

    We record how long work takes today, where errors happen, and how much manual effort is involved.

  4. 04

    Choose what matters most

    We rank possible improvements by value, effort, risk, and how confident we are that they will help.

  5. 05

    Estimate the value

    We show where you may save time, reduce waste, or increase capacity—and clearly explain every assumption.

  6. 06

    Leave with a clear plan

    You receive a map of the current system, the main risks, and a prioritized 90-day action plan.

AI Systems Partnership

The partnership earns its place every month.

You get ongoing expert advice, hands-on building, and someone responsible for keeping the work moving. The hours simply show how much building time is included each month.

Keep the next AI decision clear

Advisory

$2,000/ month

Teams that are implementing internally and want an experienced second brain available before a decision becomes rework.

  • Unlimited reasonable-use async AI implementation advisory
  • System, tool, vendor, and workflow reviews
  • Four hands-on development hours each month
  • Two private 45-minute coaching sessions
  • Monthly decision and recommendation record

Turn the priority into working systems

Build Partner

$4,000/ month

Teams with a list of AI or automation improvements that need ongoing advice and dependable hands-on help each month.

  • Everything in Advisory
  • Twelve hands-on development hours each month
  • Four private 45-minute coaching sessions
  • Monthly priorities, clear definition of done, and results review

Reserve a senior implementation lane

Embedded Partner

$7,000/ month

Teams running several connected initiatives that need deeper implementation ownership without adding a full-time AI lead.

  • Everything in Build Partner
  • Twenty-four hands-on development hours each month
  • One private 60-minute coaching session each week
  • Rolling roadmap, stakeholder alignment, and impact report

Three-month initial term, then month to month with 30 days' notice. Unlimited means reasonable-use async consulting and advisory about AI implementation on business days. Meetings, development, coaching, emergency response, and 24/7 availability are not unlimited. We will recommend a partnership only when there is enough useful work to make the monthly cost worthwhile.

Investment case

See where this can save time, reduce waste, or help you grow.

We compare the result with where you started and explain how we calculated it. We do not call saved time “cash saved,” or claim new revenue, unless the numbers actually support it.

Time back

Repetitive work removed so your team can spend more time serving clients and growing the agency.

Less waste

Fewer errors, repeated work, duplicate tools, and unnecessary contractor or vendor costs.

Faster delivery

Quicker lead follow-up, onboarding, approvals, client work, and billing.

Growth

More room to take on clients, improve retention, or increase sales—counted only when we can prove the connection.

Budgeting

Working session, project, or partnership?

Use a fixed working session for one clear question, a project for one defined result, and a partnership when you need expert help every month.

Business working session

$250/hr

Best for
One bounded decision, workflow review, or clearly defined problem.
Watch out for
A session is not a substitute for evidence gathering when the real problem is systemic.

Use when the question and desired decision fit inside one session.

Fixed project

From $5k

Default
Best for
A Notion OS, migration, client portal, automation layer, or AI workflow build.
Watch out for
Needs a real discovery pass before price and scope are honest.

Use when you want an outcome, not an open-ended meter.

AI systems partnership

From $2k/mo

Best for
Recurring decisions, an evidence-backed backlog, and continuous implementation ownership.
Watch out for
Not justified when there is no baseline, recurring decision load, or valuable improvement backlog.

Use when continuity and measured monthly progress are more valuable than episodic projects.

When the problem crosses workflows, systems, or teams, start with the paid diagnostic: establish the baseline, examine the evidence, and price the right outcome before work starts.

FAQ

Pricing & process questions.

Is the free Fit Assessment a technical audit?
No. It is a nine-question starting point that shows the likely problem, a rough estimate of what waiting may cost, and the most sensible next step. The paid AI Systems Diagnostic is where we closely review your workflows, tools, data, risks, team, and current numbers before making a formal recommendation.
What do we receive from the AI Systems Diagnostic?
You receive a map of how work happens today, your starting numbers, the main problems and opportunities, a realistic estimate of the value, and a prioritized 90-day action plan. We may recommend a project, monthly partnership, work your own team can handle, or no paid engagement at all.
What does the monthly partnership actually buy?
It gives you ongoing expert advice, a set amount of hands-on building each month, and one person responsible for keeping the work moving. We agree what matters most, define what done looks like, build it, check whether the team is using it, and decide what to improve next.
How do you justify the investment?
We look at time saved, mistakes and repeated work reduced, tools or contractor costs avoided, faster delivery, and any revenue change we can actually connect to the work. We show our math and assumptions. Saved time is not automatically called cash savings, and no revenue result is guaranteed.
How long does implementation take?
A clearly defined project can receive a 30-day delivery guarantee when we have the access, information, and approvals needed to finish it. Larger projects are split into smaller stages so you see useful progress early without receiving a promise we cannot honestly keep.
Do you replace our existing tools?
Rarely. We're use-case driven, not tool-driven. We diagnose your operations first, then connect and optimize the tools you already use — Notion, Slack, Airtable, ClickUp, and more — only recommending changes when a tool is actively holding you back.
What if our team isn't technical?
That's the point. Every build includes hands-on training, SOP documentation, and a structured rollout plan so your team is aligned from day one. Great systems fail without adoption — we design for the people who actually use them.
What happens after the build is complete?
You own everything and receive documentation, recorded training, and the agreed support window. If recurring decisions and improvements justify ongoing ownership, the partnership starts with a three-month operating period and becomes month to month afterward with 30 days' notice.

Your operations shouldn't depend on heroics.

Use the free 90-second Fit Assessment for a preliminary direction. If the problem crosses systems or teams, apply for the paid diagnostic before committing to implementation.
