Three ways to fit AI tools to your business

Each service is designed for a different stage — a first look, a fitted build, or ongoing care. Take the one that suits where you are right now.

Back to Home

Study first. Build only if it fits.

Every engagement begins with an honest look at your business — not a tool recommendation. We believe that understanding how you actually work is more valuable than a list of available products. From that understanding comes a short written map of realistic opportunities, if any exist.

When we do build, we configure around your routines rather than asking your team to adapt to a generic setup. Handover includes written documentation and a walkthrough so your staff understand what they're using and why it's there. After the build, we stay close for a fortnight to catch anything that needs adjusting.

For businesses that want ongoing attention, the monthly retainer keeps tools properly maintained — not just left to drift as their underlying systems update. Quarterly reviews keep us accountable and give you a plain account of what's working.

1

Listen and observe

We spend time with your team — either in person or remotely — learning how the work actually flows before forming any opinion on what tools might help.

2

Map honestly

We produce a written opportunity map that names specific places where a tool could help, alongside a candid assessment of where it wouldn't. You receive this regardless of whether you proceed.

3

Build to fit

If you choose to proceed, we configure tools around your workflows, test them against real tasks, and hand over with clear documentation and a walkthrough session.

4

Keep in good order

For ongoing clients, we monitor tools, tune them as your needs shift, and review progress with you quarterly — in plain terms, not jargon.

Measure-Up Session

Measure-Up Session

S$185 · One session + written summary

A calm first consultation for owners who want their tools chosen with care. We study how your business actually runs and mark a few realistic opportunities where supportive tools would fit well — noting honestly where they would not. Suited to small trades, makers, and specialist services.

Scope is one working session and a short written summary. Includes an opportunity map, a candid effort estimate, and a relaxed set of next steps with no obligation.

What's included

  • One focused working session (2–3 hours)
  • Written opportunity map delivered within 2 working days
  • Candid effort estimate for each identified opportunity
  • Plain set of suggested next steps
  • No obligation to proceed after the session

Best suited for

Business owners who are curious about AI tools but haven't found a straight answer to whether they'd actually help. Particularly useful if you've heard a lot of hype and want an honest second opinion before spending anything significant.

Well-Kept Retainer

Well-Kept Retainer

S$540 / month · Reviewed quarterly

An ongoing monthly partnership for owners who would value their tools kept in good working order. We monitor your assistants, refine them as needs shift, and review progress with you in modest, honest terms.

Ideal for firms planning measured growth. Scope is a continuing engagement reviewed quarterly. Includes upkeep, sensible tuning, weekday support, and a clear quarterly review.

What's included monthly

  • Ongoing monitoring of your AI assistants
  • Sensible tuning as your work or the tool changes
  • Weekday support access for questions and issues
  • Written quarterly review of performance and adjustments

Best suited for

Businesses that have completed an integration and want continuing attention — particularly those whose work shifts seasonally or who are growing steadily. Not suitable as a replacement for an initial Measure-Up or integration.

Which service fits where you are

Most clients begin with a Measure-Up, move to an integration if it makes sense, and consider a retainer when the tools are live and worth keeping in good order.

Protocols that apply to every service

PDPA-aligned data handling

Client data is handled in line with Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act. We don't retain business information beyond project requirements.

Written scope before work

Every engagement starts with a short written statement of what's included. Scope changes are discussed openly before being acted on.

Testing before handover

No integration goes live until it has been tested against realistic tasks from your workflow and reviewed by your team.

Plain language always

Summaries, diagrams, and reviews are written so that any person in your team can read and follow them without a technical background.

Walkthrough included

Integration work includes a hands-on session with your staff — not a recorded tutorial but a live working session with questions welcome.

Honest where tools don't fit

If a business's situation doesn't call for AI tooling, we say so after the Measure-Up. Every client receives a written record of that assessment.

Start with a Measure-Up and see what's worth doing

One session, a written summary, a clear picture of what makes sense — and no pressure on what comes after.
