Hiring an employee
A sprint builds a defined system while your team keeps the judgment. An employee may be the better choice when the job needs daily context across changing responsibilities.
Every price below is current. The work covers recurring operating workflows such as intake, routing, follow-up, reporting, documents, and inbox triage. Unusual or larger engagements get a written scope.
Deliverable. The bottleneck I would attack first, plus one practical fix. Sometimes that fix is a tool you can buy without me.
Delivery. A written reply by email after I review the form.
You provide. The form, an honest description of the drag, and an optional real example with anything sensitive redacted.
Free is deliberate. It routes you to the smallest useful next step, including the one where you take the answer and never hire me.
Deliverable. A workflow map, ranked backlog, 90-day plan, honest hours-saved math, and the first sprint I would run.
Start condition. The working session, required access, and source examples need to be in place before the audit begins.
You provide. Someone who knows the workflow, access to the relevant systems or exports, and enough real examples to map the work as it actually runs.
Deliverable. One working workflow built end to end, with the system, specs, human approval gate, SOP, and measurement plan. Yours. Larger custom builds are scoped fixed-price up to $25,000.
Delivery. The written scope sets the build stages, review gates, and acceptance condition.
You provide. System access, a decision-maker for approval gates, real inputs to test, and timely review while the workflow is being built.
Deliverable. One or two workflow improvements a month, documented and yours. I stand up the operating layer one useful system at a time.
Structure. Month to month, with no lock-in.
You provide. A clear priority order, access to the systems in scope, and a client-side owner who can review decisions and keep the work moving.

I cap the roster because I also run a media and creative agency.
The paid AI Workflow Audit fee credits in full toward a build sprint booked within 90 days of the audit.
If a deliverable materially fails to match its written scope, tell me within 30 days of delivery and I will re-perform the deficient work. That is the remedy for defective work stated in Section 11 of the terms.

Free mini assessment
The drag is real, but the first build is not obvious. Map it, rank it, and leave with the plan.
One defined workflow needs to work now, with an approval gate, documentation, and a clean handoff.
There is more than one useful build and you want steady implementation without creating an internal bench.
I make platform decisions in your interest, based on fit, cost, and how cleanly you can leave.
I build it, train your team, document it, and exit clean. You own what we build.
The controls, approval gates, and third-party handling are laid out on the data handling page.
These are different ways to solve the same operating drag. The right answer depends on what you need after the build.
A sprint builds a defined system while your team keeps the judgment. An employee may be the better choice when the job needs daily context across changing responsibilities.
Tools still need someone to wire them together and maintain them. I build the workflow, put the risky output behind an approval gate, and hand it off documented. DIY is cheaper when someone on your team has the time and ownership to do that work.
You work directly with one operator and own what gets built. A full agency may fit better when you need a larger team across several disciplines at once.
The written read recommends the smallest useful next step and says when you can handle it without me.
