Find out where the money is leaking.
Two weeks. $1,200. If you then go ahead with a build within 60 days, that $1,200 comes off the price of the build — so the Roadmap costs you nothing extra.
- Run by the person who would build it, not a salesperson
- One 90-minute session, not a project
- You keep the document either way, and can hand it to anyone
- If we say automation isn’t worth it, you’ve saved $4,500
Five things, and they are all yours.
- 01
Research before we speak
We read up on your business first, so the session isn’t spent explaining what you do.
- 02
A structured discovery session
Ninety minutes with the person who would build the system — not an account manager taking notes to pass on.
- 03
A full process map, inquiry to invoice
Every manual step counted and costed. This is the part that surprises people.
- 04
A prioritised roadmap
What to automate first, what each piece costs, and what it should change in your numbers.
- 05
A fixed-price Sprint proposal
Scope, exclusions, and a written definition of done. A number you can decide on.
What the process map looks like.
A sample, drawn from a real quote-to-invoice process. Yours is drawn from yours.
- Inquiry arrives
- Sits in an inbox
- Somebody reads it
- Retyped into a spreadsheet
- Emailed to the estimator
- Quote sent — then silence ✕
- Inquiry captured
- Routed automatically
- Estimator notified
- Quote sent
- Chased on day 3
- Outcome logged
The person in the session is the person who builds it.
There is no account manager between you and the work. The ninety minutes you buy are spent with the founder — the same person who writes the specification, builds the system and answers the email in month six.
That is the whole reason this costs $1,200 rather than nothing. It is not a sales call dressed as a discovery session; it is two weeks of a specific person’s attention, and the document at the end is the proof of it.
Why $1,200, and what happens to it.
Free audits are sales calls. They are designed to end in a proposal, which means the person running one is never going to tell you the honest answer. Charging for this is what makes the answer worth having.
The money is not lost either way. Go ahead with a Sprint within 60 days and the $1,200 comes off the price in full. Don’t go ahead, and you still have a costed process map you can hand to anyone.
- If the Roadmap says automation isn’t worth it, we’ll say so — and you’ve saved yourself the $4,500 you were about to spend.
- If you don’t go ahead, you keep the document. It is yours, in writing, with the numbers in it.

What a Sprint covers →Automation System & Support
We build the wider system and keep it running.
Monitoring, maintenance, and one change a month. Most automation dies at handover; this is the part that stops that.

What the retainer covers →Four things people ask.
How much of our time does it take?
One 90-minute session, plus read-only access to whatever the process touches. Everything after that is our work, not yours.
What if you tell us not to bother?
Then we tell you, and you’ve saved the $4,500 you were about to spend on a build. That outcome is a success for both of us — it is the reason this is paid work rather than a sales call.
What if we don’t go ahead?
You keep the document. The process map and the costings are yours, and another developer could work from them.
Can we start with the free scan instead?
Yes. Twenty minutes, no charge, and we’ll tell you whether a Roadmap is even worth buying. Start with the scan.
