Step 3 of 4 · $2,500 to $7,500 per system
Build: one AI system, one fixed price, live in 2 to 4 weeks.
The Blueprint sets the price. The build delivers it. You know the number before I start.
What's included
- The system, built to the plan in your Blueprint. One system means one job, end to end, such as lead follow-up.
- Connections to the tools named in the plan.
- A person in the loop wherever the plan says a person decides.
- Testing on real examples from your business before go-live.
- Go-live, and fixes after launch for 30 days, even if you don't take Run.
- Plain-English notes: what it does, how to pause it, and who to call.
The timeline: 2 to 4 weeks
The clock starts at kickoff, once the deposit is paid and I have access to the tools.
- Kickoff. You approve the plan, the deposit is paid, and I get access to the tools in the plan.
- Build. I build the system and connect it. You see working pieces as they come together.
- Test. We run it on real examples together. You see what it does before your customers do.
- Go live. It starts doing the work.
- Handover. The notes, the logins and a walkthrough. Then you run it, or I run it for you on Run.
Builds stay on schedule when the logins are ready at kickoff.
How pricing works
- One fixed price per system, from $2,500 to $7,500, set in your Blueprint.
- What moves the price: how many tools it connects to, how many kinds of work it handles, and how much of it needs a person's review.
- Half is invoiced up front, at kickoff, and the second half at go-live.
- If you go ahead within 60 days of your Blueprint, the $500 comes off the price.
- New requests during the build get a written quote first. The price changes only if you approve one.
- Not included: the monthly fees for the software and AI services the system runs on. You pay those directly, on your own accounts, and the Blueprint estimates them.
What I need from you
- One person who can say yes: to the plan, the test results and go-live.
- Access to the tools in the plan, at kickoff.
- A batch of real examples: the emails, forms or documents the system will handle.
- A little time each week to test and answer questions.
- Someone who will use it. A system nobody uses is a cost, not a tool.
Who owns what
- You own the system. It runs on accounts in your business's name, with logins you control.
- You own the data: what goes in, what comes out, and the record of what it did. I don't sell it, and I don't use it to train AI models.
- You own the setup. The configuration, the code and the notes built for you are yours.
- The plan names every outside service the system uses, so you know where your data goes.
- Nothing gets switched off if we part ways. You keep the system, the logins and the notes.
I learned this on my first client. If someone else can turn your business off, it isn't your business. It's theirs, on loan.
Every build starts with a Blueprint.
The Blueprint sets the scope and the fixed price. It costs $500, credited toward your build within 60 days.
