What it costs

Know the process before the proposal.

The 30-minute fit call is free and the fourteen-day audit is fixed at £2,000. What comes next depends on the opportunity: every build receives a custom proposal, with the scope and price agreed before code is written.

  • Every step priced before it starts
  • Nothing to commit to on day one
  • Something you keep at the end of each one

The four steps

Four steps from business-wide evidence to a system your team runs.

The fit call tests whether the commercial problem is worth investigating. The audit maps constraints, tests viable opportunities and ranks the investment. A build and any ongoing support follow only where the evidence justifies them, with each scoped and priced in its own proposal.

  1. Step one

    Fit call

    Free30 minutes

    Test whether the problem is worth investigating.

    In thirty minutes we test the commercial stakes, whether AGMM is a fit and what evidence the team can provide. Nothing is purchased on the call.

    You leave withA straight answer on whether the fourteen-day audit is the right next step.

  2. Step two

    Constraint audit

    £2,00014 days

    Map the business, price the opportunities and rank the investment.

    Fourteen days and three sixty-minute working sessions with two forward-deployed AI engineers. Between them, AGMM maps constraints across the business, tests viable AI opportunities and builds the economic case for each justified option.

    You leave withA business-wide constraint map, AI opportunity map, economic cases, ranked priorities and a custom build proposal where the evidence warrants one.

  3. Step three

    Build

    Custom build proposalScoped and priced by the audit

    The price is agreed before anyone writes code.

    The scope follows the opportunity, from one focused system to a larger programme spanning teams and workflows. We design, write, integrate, test and deploy against your real data, your real rules and the exceptions your team already works around. The audit sets the scope, so the proposal reflects the work required rather than an arbitrary band.

    You leave withThe first systems in ordinary daily use, and a team that can operate them without us in the room.

  4. Step four

    Ongoing support

    Custom ongoing proposalScoped to the deployed systems

    If ongoing support is needed, its scope and price are agreed before it starts.

    Ongoing support is proposed separately after the build. Its scope and price depend on the systems in production, integrations, monitoring, response requirements, ownership and improvement cadence. It may include changes as well as uptime: rules move, people join, volumes shift, and the support proposal reflects what the business actually needs.

    You leave withA written support proposal covering responsibilities, service boundaries, review points and price, with no default monthly band imposed on every system.

Start with the evidence, not a pre-selected build.

The constraint audit

The £2,000 buys an answer, not a pitch.

14 days, built around three sixty-minute working sessions with two forward-deployed ai engineers. A free audit is a sales call with a document attached, and it has to arrive at a recommendation to build something, because that is the only way it ever pays for itself.

An illustration of the constraint map the audit produces: the same job traced end to end, waiting time separated from working time, and the step where it queues marked. Your version is measured from your own tools.
What the £2,000 produces, and what you keep whether or not anything gets built. The measurements come from your process, not from a benchmark.

What happens between the calls

  • Operating constraints mapped across departments, including undocumented hand-offs
  • Viable AI opportunities separated from simpler process and system fixes
  • Human controls, dependencies and failure conditions written down
  • Economic cases built from the figures and evidence your business can support
  • Opportunities ranked by projected return and operational value
An illustrative week: the bars are tasks, teal is what an audit typically hands to software, and the running total is computed from the diary as it is read. Your own number comes from your own fortnight.

What you keep if you never build anything

  • The constraint mapA business-wide view of where capacity, cash and decisions are held up.
  • The AI opportunity mapThe viable opportunities, the dependencies underneath them and where a person must remain in control.
  • The economic casesUpside, cost, assumptions and risk for every opportunity worth considering.
  • The ranked next stepA prioritised investment order and a custom proposal for the highest-value justified scope. You can use it with AGMM, take it elsewhere or stop.

The fee is not deducted from the build. That is deliberate, and it is the whole point: it means we carry no financial reason to recommend building anything, so the recommendation is worth reading.

The call comes first.Thirty minutes, free, so we both know the audit is worth £2,000 before you spend it.

The other side of the ledger

Every number above is a cost. Here is the honest return.

In the illustrative week our audit graphic reads, 11.5 of 36.5 working hours are collection, retyping and chasing. Put one £28,000 admin salary against those hours and roughly £9,000 a year flows through work software could carry, before you count the jobs that waited. Your number will be different, which is the point: the £2,000 audit exists to measure it, and a build is only proposed when the fixed price stands a serious chance of repaying itself inside a year.

Beyond the four steps

Deploy us across everything you own.

Some owners do not run one business. They run several, and every one of them has the same rot: work moving by hand, one person holding the process together, nobody able to see across any of it. Hiring a technology team into each company is absurd. Deploy one team into all of them instead.

01

One team across the whole group

Not a technology hire in every company. The same two engineers embedded across everything you own, who already know how you operate and how you decide.

02

AI is why two people can carry it

We build the tooling we work with. Our capacity stopped being our headcount, which is the only reason deploying across several businesses is possible at all.

03

What one company learns, the rest inherit

A system proven in one of your businesses ports to the next one in days. The second deployment is not a second build.

This is for owners with more than one business, and it is not step five. It starts as a conversation once the first systems are live in the first company. Ask on the call.

The market

What everyone else charges.

Useful context, because the range in this market is enormous and nobody publishes it side by side. These are the bands UK firms advertise, read from their own pricing pages in August 2026.

Named firms, sorted by what each one publishes, with sources and dates:the UK published price index.

Our proposal follows the scope the audit proves, from one focused system to a larger programme spanning teams and workflows. There is no artificial ceiling. There are two of us, and the people who scope the work are the people who build it.

Where we stop

Times we will tell you not to build.

The audit sometimes finds the constraint is not a software problem. When it is a pricing decision, a staffing decision, or a process nobody has written down yet, putting software on top of it makes the problem faster rather than smaller, and more expensive to unpick later. When that is the answer, that is the answer, and you still keep the audit.

Before you decide

The worst case, in full.

You spend £2,000. Fourteen days later you know what the process actually costs you, which steps are queueing, and what we would build, priced. Then we tell you not to build it, because the numbers land small. You keep every document and owe us nothing further. That is the worst case, and it is more than most firms in this market deliver as their best.

Is this money well spent for you

Right for some businesses. Wrong for others.

Worth the call

  • A team whose week is part coordination, part retyping, part chasing
  • An owner who wants the problem handled, not another tool to learn
  • A process that costs more than the £2,000 it takes to measure it
  • Someone in the room who can approve a custom build when the economic case is clear

Keep your money

  • You want a chatbot on the website and nothing behind it
  • Nothing in the operation actually hurts yet
  • You need training for the team rather than a system built
  • The budget would strain the business rather than repay it

Before you spend

What people ask about the money.

Do you publish fixed prices?
The 30-minute fit call is free and the business-wide AI Constraint Audit is a fixed £2,000. Every build receives a custom proposal at the end of the audit, scoped to the opportunity, systems, data and delivery risk. Any ongoing support is proposed separately. Its scope and price depend on the deployed systems, integrations, monitoring, response requirements, ownership and improvement cadence.
Why is the audit paid rather than free?
A free audit is a sales call with a document attached. It has to arrive at a recommendation to build something, because that is the only way it ever pays for itself. Ours is paid, and the fee is not deducted from the build, so we carry no financial reason to recommend building anything.
What happens if the audit says do not build anything?
That is a legitimate result and you still keep the audit. When the constraint is a pricing decision, a staffing decision or a process nobody has written down, software on top of it makes the problem faster rather than smaller.
Why are your prices lower than a bigger consultancy?
Because you are paying for two engineers who do the work themselves. There is no sales team, no account layer and nobody billing for coordinating the people who build. Most of what a larger firm charges is the cost of the people between you and the work.

Start with the investment decision, not a quote.

The free fit call tests whether the problem is commercially meaningful enough for the fourteen-day, £2,000 audit. Nothing is purchased on the call.
