Discovery Phase
discover

Understand the problem, honestly.

We sit with your team, read your docs, look at the data. No proposals yet.

  • Kick-off: half-day workshop with your team
  • Data + systems audit (what exists, what's clean, what's a mess)
  • Stakeholder interviews (ops, eng, leadership)
  • Build-vs-buy-vs-do-nothing analysis
→ what you walk away with

common questions

Things clients ask on call one.

How quickly can you start?+
We can start immediately.
Do you work fixed-price or time-and-materials?+
Both. Fixed-price for well-scoped builds; T&M for ambiguous discovery. We'll tell you which fits on call two.
Who owns the code?+
You do. Always. We ship to your repo, with your infrastructure. No black boxes, no licensing your own work back from us.
Can you work with our existing team?+
Yes, that's our preferred mode. We pair with your engineers, leave behind docs and runbooks, and do real knowledge transfer before we leave.
What if the model doesn't perform?+
We agree on exit criteria upfront. If we can't hit them, we tell you early, re-scope, or return the money. We've done all three.
Do you sign DPAs / BAAs / SOC2 things?+
Yes. We're a small team so our compliance surface is simple; we've been through enterprise procurement and can move fast when your legal team is ready.
