Question 1

Why three pricing models instead of one?

Accepted Answer

Each model matches how the work actually costs. Automation has a real engineering setup cost up front; flat-monthly would penalize a light single-agent build. Websites are bounded artifacts with a clear finish line: fixed scope, fixed price, fixed date. Product is an ongoing capacity commitment where scope flexes, so monthly is the natural fit. Forcing all three into one model would overcharge the small builds and undercharge the big ones.

Question 2

How does the Product invoicing work?

Accepted Answer

Each monthly tier is invoiced as two equal payments, one every 2 weeks. $5K / month = $2.5K every 2 weeks. $10K / month = $5K every 2 weeks. $20K / month = $10K every 2 weeks. Splitting the month in two keeps your cashflow predictable and our feedback loop tight. There's no quarterly true-up.

Question 3

What does 'MVP in 6 weeks' actually mean?

Accepted Answer

A production-grade product, not a prototype. Deployed to your domain, branded, with the core flows working end-to-end on real infrastructure: payments, auth, the database schema you'll keep. Most agencies call this a 6-month build. We ship it in 6 weeks on the Standard tier because agentic workflows compress the slow parts of a traditional build (implementation, code review, QA, integration) while senior engineers own every architectural call. It is NOT a hacked-together weekend prototype with the word 'MVP' on it.

Question 4

What if my needs fall between tiers?

Accepted Answer

Book 30 minutes. We'll tell you which tier fits in the first call, and if your case genuinely falls between two we'll quote the exact in-between number — no 'contact for quote' theatre.

Question 5

Can I switch tiers mid-engagement?

Accepted Answer

Yes, both models. Upgrading takes effect in the next billing cycle; downgrading takes effect after the current period's deliverables ship. No lock-ins, no termination fees.

Question 6

Do you work with existing codebases?

Accepted Answer

For Product: we build new products and take on full rebuilds; we don't patch legacy code. For Automation: yes, we integrate with your existing stack (CRM, calendar, comms, data) without rewriting what already works.

Question 7

Is the retainer really optional on Automation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you want a one-time build and plan to run it yourself, we'll hand off the agent config, prompts, and integration spec with no ongoing fee. Most clients keep the retainer because it covers the 'who do I ping when something breaks' slot. But that's your call, not ours.

Question 8

When is it a Website project and when is it Product?

Accepted Answer

Websites are marketing and brand sites: a bounded artifact, quoted fixed, shipped on a date ($3K / $7.5K / from $15K). Product is software with users and logic (an MVP, an internal tool, ongoing development) and runs on monthly capacity tiers. If your site needs an app behind it, Flagship to the Standard product tier is the designed upgrade path.

Question 9

What's the 95+ guarantee on Websites?

Accepted Answer

Every website ships scoring 95 or better on our free, public AI Readiness Check. The rubric is published, so you can verify it yourself at handover. If it scores under 95, we fix what's failing at no charge. The honest fine print: 95+ means mechanically readable by AI engines and agents, not a citation guarantee.

Question 10

What does Site Care cover?

Accepted Answer

$350/month: hosting, content edits, monitoring, a monthly freshness pass, and a quarterly AI-visibility re-audit where we run the readiness check and ship the fixes. It's optional and presented as the default in proposals because sites drift. But the hand-off ethos is the same as automation: skip it and the build is fully yours.
