Services and pricing
From a recurring problem to a working system.
Bring a follow-up gap, a manual process, or an AI use case. If the problem needs investigation, start with a diagnostic. If the workflow and goal are clear, we can scope a build directly.
01
Where to start
Constraint Diagnostic
2 weeks
$7,500 fixed · credited toward a buildSee ScopeWhat is actually slowing the business down—and what is the smallest useful fix?
In two weeks, I follow one important workflow, talk with the people doing it, and inspect the tools and handoffs. You leave with the diagnosis, a build specification, a fixed-price proposal, and a starting measure. The diagnostic defines the fix; implementation is a separate step.
What comes next: If the first fix is worth building, the diagnostic ends with a fixed-price Operating System Build. The diagnostic fee is credited if that build starts within 30 days.
02
Fix the constraint
Operating System Build
4–8 weeks
From $15,000 · fixed price per phaseSee ScopeTurn a workflow problem or an AI use case into a working system.
I design, build, and launch a focused system around your existing tools. That might be a follow-up workflow, a CRM integration, an internal workspace, or AI that drafts, summarizes, or extracts information inside a real process. We agree on the scope and how to judge the result before building.
What comes next: After launch, your team can own the system or TKO can continue with Operate & Improve. The next step is optional and separately scoped.
03
Keep it working
Operate & Improve
Monthly · 3-month minimum
$3,000–$6,000 per monthSee ScopeKeep the system useful after launch.
I keep the operating loop healthy, fix what drifts, review what the team is seeing, and make one focused improvement at a time as the business changes.
What comes next: When the quarterly review finds a new constraint worth fixing, it becomes the next build. If you need senior operating help beyond the system, a fractional arrangement can be discussed.
How pricing works
Clear scope before the work starts.
Every engagement states the problem, the outcome we are aiming for, what is in and out of scope, and what you own at the end.
The diagnostic is the smallest useful step when the business feels stuck but the first fix is not obvious.
Builds are fixed-price by phase. We define the workflow, tools, users, review steps, and result before implementation. You own the code, configuration, and documentation.
Planning for next year? We can discuss the project now and agree on a start date against your priorities and my availability.
Operate & Improve is optional. It keeps the system matched to the business after launch, without turning the engagement into open-ended consulting.
A useful starting point
The project needs a place to land.
- One specific workflow or use case that matters to the business.
- An owner or team leader who can make decisions about the work.
- Access to the people and tools involved in the process.
- A clear place for the team to review, use, and maintain the result.
- A start date and scope that fit both your priorities and available capacity.
