Follow-ups, job tracking, a live margin view: one workflow, your own team, working on your real data in two weeks. The same rule as our biggest builds, smaller and faster — you see it work before you pay to keep going. Every price is fixed before we start.
Book a 30-minute scoping call Scope in the call — a one-page plan with every step priced, same or next dayWe build the working core first and it earns its keep on this week's real jobs. The same rule that protects a $300K platform protects your $5K: you see it work before you spend another dollar.
Each step is a finished, useful tool on its own. You decide about the next step after the current one is already paying for itself — never before.
No pressure at any step. The plan we write at step 1 lists exactly what steps 2 and 3 add. The prices never change, and nobody chases you to keep going. Your total time across all three steps: one working day, spread over six weeks.
You pay per seat, every month, for a tool you bend your process around — and the price only rises as your team grows. A tool we build fits how you actually work, and you own it. With AI, that build now costs about what you'd spend on the subscription over two or three years. At the end you own an asset instead of a pile of receipts.
over 3 years, and it keeps rising every time you hire.
one-time build plus hosting over 3 years, then it's yours.
Rough numbers to show the shape of it, not a quote. The owning side already includes about $60/month hosting; it does not include per-seat fees, because there aren't any. Real build cost comes from a scoping call.
| Generic SaaS | A tool you own | |
|---|---|---|
| Ongoing cost | $30–100 per seat, per month, forever | One-time build + minimal hosting |
| Features | Hundreds — you use a fraction | Exactly what you need |
| Fits your workflow | You adapt to the tool | The tool adapts to you |
| Data ownership | On their servers, their terms | Your data, your infrastructure |
| Price increases | Annual, guaranteed | None — you own it |
| Team adoption | Training required, resistance common | Built for how your team already works |
The average business uses just 54% of the SaaS licences it pays for. This is for the point tools that don't fit or cost too much per seat — not your accounting package or email. Tell us which subscription is bugging you and we'll scope the replacement.
A quoting tool that drafts from your pricing sheet and past jobs. A shared job list your dispatcher assigns work from."It takes us two days to get a quote out. By then they've gone with someone else."
A booking form that drafts its own follow-up. A page where a client checks the status of their job instead of ringing you."Every status call interrupts the person doing the job they're calling about."
Job margins out of Xero on one live dashboard. A weekly vendor report drafted from your listing stats. A low-stock alert that drafts the purchase order."I find out which jobs lost money at the end of the quarter."
Finished jobs flow into your invoicing, drafted for approval. An outstanding-documents tracker that drafts the reminder at tax time."We re-key the same job into three systems."
Not sure? The 20-second self-check sorts it. If your project sits on the line, the scoping call tells you which side and why.
"The $5K version paid for itself before we'd even decided on step two. We only kept going because it was already working."
No workshops that end in a document. We watch how you work today, build against your real examples, and you accept the tool on live jobs — or we fix it until you do. You get builders with commercial judgement, not order-takers: if a $5K build won't pay for itself, we say so on the call.
Tell us the workflow that's costing you work. You get a one-page plan with every step priced, same or next day.
30–45 minutesYour best person records a walkthrough of how it's done today — that recording is the spec. We build against your real past examples, with demos along the way.
1–2 weeksYou run it on this week's real jobs against a short checklist. Then decide: stop here, or take the next step — its price has been on the table since day one.
Your callThirty minutes to scope it. Your one-page plan with every step priced lands same or next day — whether or not you go ahead.
