How an Engagement Runs

What hiring this agency
actually looks like

No discovery phases billed by the month. No strategy decks. Six steps, most of them measured in days, all of them with the same person.

1. Scope Call

Thirty minutes, free, with the person who will build it. You walk through the workflow; we tell you on the call whether automation fits and roughly what it costs. If a DIY tool would do the job, we say so.

30 minutes

2. Fixed Quote

A written scope with a fixed price and timeline. Workflow automation from $2,500, consulting projects from $3,000, chatbots from $3,000, AI agents from $4,000. The number never drifts mid-build.

Within 48 hours

3. The Build

Short builds with a weekly screen-share demo on your own data. You watch the workflow take shape instead of waiting for a big reveal, and you course-correct while changes are still cheap.

2-6 weeks

4. Test on Live Work

The automation runs alongside your team on real jobs until its outputs are trusted. Prompts, rules and edge cases get tuned on what your business actually receives, not on sample data.

1-2 weeks

5. Handover

Documentation, credentials, a recorded walkthrough and training for your team. Code, accounts and API keys are yours outright, whether or not you ever call us again.

You own everything

6. Aftercare, Optional

Maintenance retainers of $200 to $500 per month keep it monitored and patched. Advisory at $600 to $1,200 per month adds a roadmap: what to automate next, and what to skip.

$200-$1,200/mo
The Honest Comparison

Specialist agency, dev shop,
freelancer or DIY?

Every option on your shortlist wins somewhere. Here is where, from an agency that only does this work.

A specialist automation agency

Has built quoting, follow-up and document workflows dozens of times, so scoping is short and fixed pricing is possible because the unknowns are already known. Wins when you want a working system without becoming its project manager.

A generalist dev shop

Strong engineers, but automation is one service line among ten. Discovery bills hourly, and the patterns a specialist already owns get rediscovered on your invoice. Wins for large bespoke platforms where the automation is a side dish, not the meal.

Freelancers and offshore teams

The lowest hourly rate and the highest management load. You write the spec, chase the timezone and carry the maintenance risk when they move on. Wins when you have technical oversight in-house and the time to supervise.

DIY on Zapier or Make

Genuinely fine for simple two-system triggers, and we say so on scope calls. Costs climb with volume, and workflows go brittle the moment a step needs judgment. Wins for automations you can maintain yourself in an afternoon.

Choosing an agency: FAQ

What should I look for when choosing an AI automation agency?

+

Four things. Shipped work you can inspect, not mockups. A fixed quote in writing before the build starts. Clarity on who actually does the work, because many agencies resell offshore labour. And ownership: you should hold the code, the accounts and the API keys when the engagement ends.

Why use a specialist automation agency instead of a general dev shop?

+

A generalist dev shop can write the code, but they price discovery by the hour and learn automation patterns on your invoice. A specialist has already built quoting, follow-up and document workflows dozens of times, so scoping is faster, estimates hold, and the edge cases are known in advance. That usually makes the specialist cheaper, not dearer.

How does your fixed pricing work?

+

Every engagement is quoted as a fixed price before work begins. Workflow automation starts at $2,500, AI chatbots at $3,000, consulting projects at $3,000, and AI agents at $4,000. A custom CRM runs $8,000 to $25,000. Most projects land between $3,000 and $25,000, and the quote covers build, testing and handover.

Can you deliver AI automation remotely across Australia?

+

Yes. We are headquartered in Perth with no branch offices, and most clients are in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Scoping runs over video with screen sharing, builds are demonstrated weekly on your own data, and everything ships to your accounts. Nothing about automation work requires someone in your building.

Who actually does the work on our project?

+

Tristan, the founder, scopes and builds every engagement personally. There are no account managers between you and the developer, no juniors learning on your project, and no offshore subcontracting. The person on the first call is the person writing the code and the person you ring when something needs changing.

What does an engagement look like from start to finish?

+

A 30-minute scope call, then a fixed quote within 48 hours. Builds run 2 to 6 weeks with weekly demos on your real data, followed by testing, documentation and handover. After that you choose: run it yourself, a maintenance retainer at $200 to $500 per month, or ongoing advisory at $600 to $1,200 per month.
