CLIENT SERVICES

Software engineering services built to ship cleanly with clear scope.

We help teams ship new products, rebuild unstable systems, and turn AI workflows into production-ready software.

Every engagement starts with a fixed-price scoping week, then moves into a monthly delivery model sized for the speed, clarity, and control the work requires.

How we keep delivery controlled.

Shared context, stable starting points, and traceable execution instead of black-box implementation.

We use internal delivery systems to centralize client context, establish a stable starting point, and keep execution visible as the work moves.

The benefit to clients is straightforward: fewer dropped decisions, clearer approvals, and faster delivery without giving up control.

Choose the delivery pace that fits, after a fixed-price scoping week defines the work.

Scoping phase first

Start with 1 week of scoping for $1,500.

We use the scoping phase to define version one, identify delivery risk, and produce a technical assessment, milestone targets, and a Phase 1 statement of work before moving into execution.

Sprint

$9,000 / month

Additional hours beyond Sprint are available at the same $150/hour rate with approval.

All retainers are priced at $150 / hour. Meeting time is included. Any additional time beyond the agreed monthly retainer requires approval and stays at the same rate.
