The reason we ship AI-native products in 4–14 weeks isn’t because we cut corners. It’s because we’ve removed the 60% of agency time that goes into proposals, estimation revisions, scope changes, and post-launch confusion. Here’s exactly how that looks.
Before we describe the system, here’s why it exists.
Most agencies sell you a 4–6 week “discovery” before they’ll commit to a build. That’s six weeks of slides, interviews, and revised proposals — all billable, and none of it ships software. By the time the real build starts, you’ve burned a quarter and changed your mind twice.
You sign a contract, the team disappears for 6–12 weeks, then surfaces with a “demo.” Half of what they built isn’t what you wanted. The other half works, but only on the laptop they’re demoing from. You spend the next 8 weeks negotiating change requests.
The platform goes live. The team that built it disappears the same week. Three months later, something breaks at 11pm on a Friday, and you discover nobody owns the code anymore.
Most agencies start with a discovery phase. We start with a 90-minute working session.
Every feature, every integration, every compliance requirement.
The full system we’re going to build, drawn out clearly.
No hourly billing. No estimation revisions. One number.
Ready to start Monday. No ambiguity about what’s in or out.
We’ve shipped enough AI-native products that we know the architecture for most categories — fintech lending, vendor workflows, consumer recommenders, internal platforms — within the first 30 minutes of a conversation. The 90-minute session isn’t us learning from scratch; it’s us mapping a known architecture onto your specific business.
Nothing. The scoping call is free, and the scope document and architecture diagram are free. We only invoice when you sign the SOW.
Every week of the build follows the same rhythm. After the first week, you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Our promiseIf you don’t know what’s being built or where the project stands, our system has failed. Tell us, and we’ll fix it the same day.
They happen. A regulator publishes new guidance. A board asks for a feature. A user-test reveals something the spec didn’t anticipate.
Our model: we lock the original SOW, but we accept up to two “scope swaps” per build at no additional cost — you take one feature out, we put another one in of equivalent complexity. Beyond two swaps, we issue a change order with a fixed fee and a new timeline. No hourly invoices. No surprises.
It happens too. Every system has incidents. The question is whether anyone owns them.
If you’ve signed our Build & Run service: we own the incident under our SLA, with a defined response time and root-cause report.
If you took only the build and not the operate service: we still answer the phone for 30 days post-launch under a warranty period. After that, your in-house team owns it — and we’re on the other end of a phone if they need help.
Most agencies have one post-launch path: they disappear. We have three.
If you’ve hired engineers or are about to, we hand over a clean codebase with documentation, runbooks, and architectural decision records. We optionally help screen and interview your new hires. Then we’re done.
∼ 1 in 3 clientsIncluded free with every build. For 30 days post-launch, we fix bugs, monitor production, and absorb the first round of user-reported issues at no charge. This is our default — nobody opts out.
∼ 1 in 6 clientsIf you don’t have an in-house team and don’t want to build one, we keep running the platform indefinitely under one of three SLA tiers ($4,000 / $8,000 / $14,000 per month, depending on response-time guarantees). We release improvements monthly. You can transfer to an in-house team anytime with 60 days’ notice and no exit fees.
∼ 1 in 2 clientsWe have opinions, not rules. The defaults that produce the best outcomes for most AI-native builds:
If you have an existing stack or a strong preference, we work with what you have. Stack choices are never a deal-breaker.
To save us both time on the first call, three things we explicitly don’t take on:
Pure marketing websites. Use Webflow or a design studio. We’re not the right team.
Hourly billing or open-ended retainers without a defined scope. Every engagement has a fixed scope and a fixed fee, even our consulting work.
Builds where AI is a marketing line, not a real architectural decision. If your spec calls for a chatbot bolted onto a static product, we’ll politely refer you elsewhere. We work on AI-native builds where the AI shapes the architecture.
Not a junior account manager. Not an offshore handoff after the sales call.
You work directly with the person who scoped the project, every week, until launch. The engineering team scales up around the founder during build phase and scales back down after handover or transition to Build & Run.
We only work with 4–6 clients at a time. The model breaks if it scales beyond that.Typically within 2 weeks of the working session. We hold capacity for one new build start per month. If our calendar is full, we’ll tell you in the first call and refer you to a partner we trust.
Then we’re probably not the right team for the whole thing. Our model works because every build is scoped tight enough to deliver in under 14 weeks. We can either help you phase the work into a 14-week MVP plus post-launch evolution under Build & Run, or refer you to a larger consultancy.
This is most of our work. We handle all architecture and engineering decisions. Your job is to be clear about the business outcome you want, and available for weekly sprint reviews.
Remote, distributed across India and the US. All client-facing work happens in your time zone — your Friday demos are scheduled for your Friday afternoon, not ours.
Yes. Once you’ve signed a mutual NDA, we’ll share a recorded sprint demo from a past build (with client logos anonymized) so you can see exactly what one looks like.
Book a 90-minute working session. We’ll sketch the architecture together, scope the build, and you’ll walk away with a written spec and a fixed fee — within 48 hours.

We take on 4–6 clients at a time so the work stays hands-on. If our calendar is full, we’ll tell you in the first call.
