Three ways to work together, no mystery meat
Published starting figures, pass-through costs at cost, and a rolling notice period. You should be able to estimate this before you ever get on a call with us.
Sprint
One problem, solved end to end. The usual entry point for automations, agent pilots and audits.
- Two to four weeks of focused delivery
- One service line, clearly scoped
- Dedicated delivery lead plus specialists
- Working system handed over with documentation
- 30 days of post-launch support
Growth retainer
The compounding option. Continuous work across two to four services with a metric we own.
- Two-week sprints with demos at the end of each
- Two to four services running in parallel
- Content, creative and media production included to agreed volumes
- Live dashboards plus a monthly performance review
- Standing experiment backlog, reprioritised every month
- Slack access with same-business-day response
Embedded partner
For teams rebuilding around AI. We operate as your in-house AI function until your team can take it.
- Cross-functional squad assigned to you
- All eight services available on demand
- Roadmap ownership and quarterly planning with your leadership
- Security review support, SOC 2 and GDPR workstreams
- Enablement and training for your internal team
- Full handover plan built in from day one
The parts most agencies leave off the pricing page
Everything starts with a free audit
Thirty minutes on your real numbers. You leave with a prioritised list of opportunities whether or not you hire us — no invoice, no obligation.
Pricing follows scope, not headcount
We quote the outcome and the work it takes. You are never billed for hours a junior spent learning your account.
No long lock-ins
Retainers run on a rolling 30-day notice after the first quarter. If we stop being worth it, you should be able to leave.
Before you ask
Because a single-service search engagement and a four-service programme with weekly video production are genuinely different amounts of work. The number is driven by how many services run in parallel and how much content and creative volume you need. After the audit call you get a fixed monthly figure, not a range.
Third-party costs are passed through at cost with no markup: ad spend, model API usage, SaaS licences, stock assets and paid data sources. We forecast these during scoping so there are no surprises, and you own the accounts they bill to.
That is the most common path. Roughly two thirds of our retainer clients started with a single fixed-scope sprint, saw the result, and expanded from there. Sprint fees are credited toward your first two months if you convert within 30 days.
Both, but honestly: below about $8k a month of total budget you are usually better served by hiring one strong generalist than by an agency. We will tell you that on the call rather than sell you a thin retainer.
Sprints are 50% on signature and 50% on delivery. Retainers are billed monthly in advance, net 15. Embedded partnerships are invoiced monthly against a quarterly commitment. We accept card, ACH and wire.
