Ways to start

Productized engagements

Most projects begin with one of these focused engagements. There's no fixed price list, we scope each one to you and send a quote.

AI Readiness Audit

1-2 weeks

Know exactly where AI will pay off in your business.

A focused review of your workflows, data and tooling to identify and prioritise the highest-ROI, lowest-risk AI opportunities, with a concrete roadmap you can act on.

  • Workflow and data review
  • Prioritised opportunity map (impact vs effort)
  • Build-vs-buy and tooling recommendations
  • A sequenced 90-day adoption roadmap

Best for: Teams who know AI matters but aren't sure where to start.

AI Prototype Sprint

2 weeks

A working AI prototype in two weeks.

We take your highest-value use case from idea to a working, demonstrable prototype, fast, so you can validate value before committing to a full build.

  • Scoping and success criteria
  • A working prototype on your data
  • Evaluation of quality, cost and feasibility
  • A recommendation on whether and how to productionise

Best for: Teams who want proof of value before a bigger investment.

Automation Audit

1-2 weeks

Find the hours hiding in your workflows.

We map your repetitive, manual processes and identify exactly what to automate first for the fastest payback, with realistic effort and ROI for each.

  • Process mapping across a chosen area
  • Automation candidates ranked by ROI
  • Effort, tooling and integration plan
  • Quick-win recommendations you can start immediately

Best for: Operations-heavy teams drowning in manual work.

Fractional CTO Retainer

Monthly retainer

Senior technical leadership, on tap.

Ongoing strategic engineering leadership scoped to your needs, architecture, roadmap, AI strategy, delivery oversight and hiring support, without a full-time hire.

  • Regular strategic and architecture guidance
  • AI and product roadmap ownership
  • Delivery and code-quality oversight
  • Hiring and technical due-diligence support

Best for: Founders and teams needing consistent senior direction.
