Clear starting points. A fixed quote before we build.

Every engagement is scoped to your business. These are the starting prices for each kind of build; your fixed quote follows a free assessment call, before any work begins.

  1. Process
  2. Automation
  3. AI Agent
  4. AI System
  5. AI Department
  6. AI operating system

Start with one process. Scale toward an operating layer for the whole business.

Five sizes of the same system.

All of them run on the same platform, with the same approvals and the same record, so each step up builds on the last instead of replacing it.

What the price depends on

  • How many workflows and agents
  • Which systems we connect to
  • Data volume and quality
  • Business rules and approvals
  • Security and compliance needs
  • Where it runs
  • Languages
  • Timeline
  • Level of ongoing support

Every price on this page is a starting point, not a quote. What a build costs depends on its scope and on many factors, above all the ones listed here. After a free assessment call you get a written scope and a fixed price, and nothing starts until you approve it. Prices exclude VAT where it applies.

What does the repetitive work cost you?

Put in your own numbers and see what the repetitive part of a process costs in a year. It is arithmetic on what you enter, nothing more.

Your inputs, straight-line, over 48 working weeks. The opportunity is the cost of the repetitive share: the most that automating it could return, before the cost of building and running it. An illustration, not a promise: we validate the real economics during the automation assessment.

How much does it cost?

Builds start from €750 for a focused automation, €2,500 for an AI agent, €5,000 for an AI system and €10,000 for an AI department; enterprise programmes are priced per scope. Keeping a system monitored and improving starts from €250 a month. The real figure depends on scope, integrations, data, rules and support, so after a free assessment call you get a written scope and a fixed price before anything starts.

What exactly do you build?

Five sizes of the same thing. An automation takes one repetitive process off your team. An AI agent handles a defined business function with judgement. An AI system connects several agents and workflows. An AI department runs a whole function end to end, and an AI operating system puts every department under one orchestrator. All of them run on the same platform, with the same approvals and the same record.

What is AI Operations, and do we need it?

It is how a live system stays healthy: we monitor every run and cost, keep connections working as your tools change, fix what breaks and improve the system every month. Anything in production should have it; the plan scales with the size of what you run.

Who owns what you build?

It is written into your proposal before anything starts: what is yours, what you keep if you leave, and in what form. The platform the work runs on is ours: it is what makes the second workflow cost less than the first.

How fast can we start?

As soon as you book: the first call is free and takes thirty minutes. A focused automation can be live within weeks; larger systems and departments are delivered in phases, each one working before the next begins. Your written scope says when each part goes live.
