- Products that need an assistant that answers from their own content
- Teams buried in documents, emails or forms
- Businesses automating repetitive back-office work
- Founders who want to test an AI feature before going all in
What you get
- A clear use case and a way to measure success, written into the Blueprint
- The AI feature built into your product, with guardrails and fallbacks
- Monthly AI service cost estimates at your expected usage
- Logging and evaluation so you can see answer quality
- Code, prompts and settings in your GitHub
Price and timeline
- Rate
- $32/hr
- Starting at
- $2,900
- Typical timeline
- 2–6 weeks
- Blueprint
- From $390, credited

How it works
- 01 · NapkinTell us the idea on a free call. Bring a sketch, a voice note or a Lovable prototype.
- 02 · Blueprint1–2 weeks of specs, clickable designs and a fixed quote, feature by feature.
- 03 · The VowPrice, milestone dates and the five promises, signed in one document.
- 04 · BuildA working demo every week. You pay each milestone after you approve it.
- 05 · LaunchWe launch, hand over every account and fix bugs free for 90 days.
The Vow, applied
- §1 Your price is fixed.The build price is fixed; AI providers' usage fees are estimated separately, in writing.
- §2 You pay as we deliver.You pay for each milestone after you've seen the feature work on your data.
- §3 You own everything. Day one.Prompts, code and configuration are yours, and the model can be swapped later.
- §4 Late? You pay less.Every milestone has a date; each full week late takes 10% off that milestone, up to 50%.
- §5 Bugs fixed free for 90 days.Defects found within 90 days of launch are fixed free.
Where AI actually helps
AI is worth adding when it removes real work or answers real questions: an assistant that answers customers from your help content, a tool that reads invoices or contracts and fills in the fields, a search box that understands questions instead of keywords, or an automation that moves data between your tools. If a simple rule would do the job, we'll tell you, and it will cost less.
Keeping AI costs predictable
AI providers charge for every request. In the Blueprint we estimate your monthly cost at your expected usage, then build in caching, limits and alerts so a busy month can't produce a surprise bill.
Guardrails we build in
Every AI feature we ship has limits on what it can do, answers grounded in your own data, logging so you can review what it said, and a fallback when it isn't sure. Before launch we run evaluation tests against real examples from your business.
Questions about AI features & automation
How much does it cost to add AI to my app?
Building an AI feature starts at $2,900. AI providers also charge per use, so in the Blueprint we estimate your monthly AI costs at your expected usage.
Which AI models do you use?
We choose per use case among leading providers' models, weighing quality, speed, price and how your data is handled, and we design the feature so the model can be swapped later.
Is my data safe?
We send AI providers only the data a feature needs, use business terms that exclude training on your data where providers offer them, and keep API keys on the server.
What if the AI gives a wrong answer?
We design for it, with answers grounded in your own content, clear limits on what the assistant does, a handoff to a person where it matters, and evaluation tests before launch.
