How we work

Three steps.
No guesswork.

Every engagement runs the same way. Discovery comes first. You can stop after any step. Pricing is fixed and published before we start. The deliverable for each stage is named. The price for each stage is named.

Stage 01 · Discovery and audit

We learn before we build.

Two weeks of structured work. We come in and learn how the firm actually runs, not how the org chart claims it runs. We map the workflows that touch revenue, cost, and risk. We identify the processes where AI has the highest return for the firm in the next 12 months.

We scope the integration architecture, including the Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, standard APIs, and data flows that will connect the new system to the existing stack. We run a safety review covering data exposure, vendor risk, and the legal questions specific to your sector.

The deliverable is a written plan you own. Sequence, cost, timing, dependencies, and a recommendation on which workflow to ship first. If we never speak again, the plan is yours to act on.

Discovery

Two weeks. Map. Scope. Plan.

Stage 02 · Implementation

One workflow. End to end.

We rebuild one workflow end to end. The work covers tool selection, integration, change management, training, and a documented internal owner. We use MCP-first integration patterns where they fit and standard REST or GraphQL APIs where they do not.

The project runs in two-week increments with a check-in cadence we agree at the start. You see progress every fortnight. You can stop, pivot, or extend at any of those check-ins.

Adoption is the hard part. Training is built in. Documentation is built in. The follow-up rhythm is built in. The workflow goes live with a named owner inside your firm and a written plan for what happens when something breaks.

Stage 03 · Ongoing partnership

Run. Optimise. Replace.

Once the first workflow is live, we stay on retainer. We optimise what is running. We build the next workflow when the firm is ready, sequenced so each builds on the last. We replace tools that have stopped earning their keep.

We keep watch on the AI landscape so you do not have to. New regulation, new model release, new vendor pivot. We bring the brief to you in plain English with a recommendation.

The retainer is rolling. You can pause or stop with reasonable notice. No lock-in. No renewal penalty.

Always included

What you always get.

  • Plain-English documentation written for the team that has to use it.
  • A named internal owner you nominate, briefed and supported.
  • A change-management plan for adoption, with a follow-up rhythm.
  • A safety review covering data, vendor, and legal exposure.
  • A quarterly review of what is working and what is not.
Never included

What you will not get.

  • Tool resale. We have no vendor commissions.
  • Strategy decks without a delivery plan attached.
  • Promises tied to numbers we can not measure.
  • Lock-in. The plan is yours. The integrations are documented.
  • Surprise invoices. The price on the card is the price on the invoice.
Pricing

Three steps. Published prices.

Most consultancies hide pricing because the number depends on what you can pay. Ours does not.
