Frequently Asked Questions

AI consulting and governance, staged AI implementation (model-neutral, or specific to Claude, OpenAI, or a private AI stack), custom software and automation, and ongoing support. That includes workflow automation, AI integrations, AI agents, and the software behind them, like dashboards, client portals, and internal tools. One senior team does the work as your fractional technology partner.

No. Start with a business wish list and we reply with a suggested next step. The $99, 1-hour business consultation is a separate paid option if you would rather talk it through live with a senior architect. Neither commits you to a build.

No. Our AI consulting is model-neutral, and we compare tools against your stack, data rules, and budget. Once you have chosen a route, we also set up Claude, a ChatGPT workspace or the OpenAI API, or a private AI stack: a company-controlled chat interface (Open WebUI or LibreChat) connected through the Requesty gateway to the models you select. We are an independent firm, not affiliated with any AI provider.

Yes. We draft practical rules for data, access, and human review, plus provider-settings checklists, and help build them into your workflows. This is operational guidance for your counsel to review. It is not legal advice or a compliance certification.

Growing small and mid-sized businesses that have outpaced their tools — teams in legal, healthcare, real estate, recruiting, hospitality, manufacturing, and professional services that want senior engineers without hiring an internal tech department.

Yes. We design, build, and manage AI agents as a service, so no in-house engineering team is required. Your staff gets a working system with SOPs and training; we handle the technical side and ongoing management.

No. We plug into your current CRM, phone, calendar, billing, and industry-specific platforms.

It depends on scope, systems, access, data, and review turnaround. Focused automations have been scoped at a few weeks once requirements are locked, and larger platform work takes longer. We state an estimate in the written scope before work starts. It is an estimate, not a guarantee.

Yes—live handoff plus short Loom SOPs. Most teams are fully productive within a week.

We use least‑privilege access, audit logs, and your platform's security. For messaging and voice, we build to consent, opt‑out, and call‑recording rules. For AI tools, retention and training terms vary by provider and plan, so we check the terms for the plan you use rather than assume them. We do not certify compliance, and regulated data should be reviewed with your counsel.

Cost depends on the number and complexity of systems, data volumes, channels (email/SMS/voice), and custom logic. Builds are a fixed price quoted from an agreed written scope before work begins, with no public rate card and no open-ended hourly billing. The $99, 1-hour consultation is a separate, optional paid session.

Only one price is public: the $99, 1-hour consultation. Assessments, builds, and ongoing support are tailored to your goals, tools, and volumes, and quoted separately from an agreed written scope.

Number/complexity of systems, data volumes, channels (email/SMS/voice), and custom logic.

On build work we agree success metrics up front, document them in your scope, and optimize against them after launch. We do not guarantee outcomes.

We continue optimizing and iterating against the agreed success metrics. No legal guarantees—just a results-focused partnership.

We use tracked booking links, unique numbers, CRM source tags, automation logs, and before/after benchmarks to attribute outcomes.

Yes. Ongoing support covers monitoring, small changes, and monthly reporting, priced by scope. It is required only if we host or operate the system for you, and advisory, assessment, governance, and training work never needs one.

Those fees are billed by the providers and are not in our fees unless your written scope says so. The scope states, for each provider, whose account it runs on and who pays.

You own your data, content, and brand assets. We license the custom implementation to you for perpetual internal use. Our underlying frameworks and connectors remain our IP, which is standard for agencies.

Yes. You can continue to use the deliverables by self hosting. We will provide an export and an optional migration service. Hosted workloads on our cloud require an active plan.

Yes. We can deploy to AWS, GCP, Azure, or your VPS. There is a one time setup and a lighter maintenance plan for updates and security patches.

We send notices, provide a 15 day grace period, and offer an export. After the grace period we suspend hosted runtimes. No data is deleted without written approval.
