Straight answers about cost
Which prices are published, and which are quoted?
The opportunity audit, the first automation build, a standard workflow build, and the managed-care tiers each have a starting price you can read off this page. Retrieval systems, multi-system agents, and regulated builds are quoted privately.
How do you charge, in general?
An opportunity audit is a fixed fee. A workflow build is quoted against a written spec, with any model, software, or usage costs listed separately. Ongoing care is a monthly agreement set by workflow count and change cadence.
Who owns and runs the automation afterward?
You do. We hand over the workflow, the documentation, and the access. You can run it yourself, or keep us on a care agreement to monitor and adjust it as your tools and inputs change.
