◆What we do

Start with the assessment. The price comes from your numbers.

We do not quote AI work from a menu. Every engagement starts with a two-week assessment and audit of how your company actually runs. After the readout, you get a price for ongoing work based on what we found.

◆Where every engagement starts

AI Assessment & Audit

Two weeks inside your business. We talk to the people who do the work, map where the time and money go, and show you where AI pays for itself and where it does not.

Assessment
$1,875
One time, due on signing
Length
2 weeks
Kickoff to readout

If you continue with Withn, the full $1,875 is credited to your first month of work.

01/ What we do
  • A short survey sent to 5 to 10 of your key people: department heads and the employees closest to the work
  • A 30 to 45 minute interview with each of them, in person or remote, built from their own survey answers
  • A map of how work actually moves through the company, and where the time and money go
  • The money inputs from leadership: volume, win rate, job value, margin, labor cost, and room to take on more
  • A shortlist of the 3 to 5 workflows where AI is worth the most, and an honest list of what to leave alone
  • 1 or 2 example workflows built on your real processes, so you can see them working
02/ What you walk away with
  • How AI actually worksA plain-English explanation of what AI can and cannot do today, without the hype.
  • Where it fits in your businessA map of your workflows, the 3 to 5 best places for AI, and what to leave alone.
  • What it is worthConservative estimates of the time and money each workflow saves or adds, built from your own numbers.
  • Proof it works1 or 2 example workflows built on your real processes, so you see it instead of hearing about it.
  • A roadmap you can use with anyoneWhat to do first, in what order, and roughly what it costs, whether you work with us, hire someone else, or do it yourselves.

You own the report and the example workflows either way. The assessment commits neither side to further work.

◆How deep it goes

Two weeks, start to finish.

The assessment is built on what your own people tell us and what your own numbers show, not on a generic checklist.

  1. 01/ First callFree, 60 minutes

    We research your company before we talk, then walk through your growth, where the time goes, and how the money flows. You get an honest read on where AI will help and where it will not yet.

  2. 02/ Agreement and kickoffDay 0

    A one-page agreement covers scope, price, dates, and confidentiality. You name the 5 to 10 people to include and we get time on their calendars.

  3. 03/ SurveyDays 1 to 4

    Your key people answer a short survey about their week, their tools, and where work gets stuck. Answers are used to improve how the business runs, never to evaluate individual employees.

  4. 04/ InterviewsDays 4 to 9

    We write a custom set of questions for each person from their survey answers, then walk every step of the workflows they described.

  5. 05/ Build the caseDays 8 to 12

    We shortlist the workflows, build the examples, estimate your software and AI costs, and write the report.

  6. 06/ Readout and priceDay 14

    We walk you through the findings, the money breakdown, and the working examples. You keep the written report either way. This is also where you get a price for ongoing work, based on what the assessment found.

◆How we put a number on it

Every workflow has to show how it makes money.

Hours saved is not enough. We follow the same chain every time: capacity freed, extra output, win rate, average job value, gross margin. The inputs come from your survey answers and interviews.

  • We count gross margin on the extra work, never revenue.
  • We model a smaller lift than what looks possible.
  • We check whether your team can actually take on the extra work.
  • We subtract your software and AI usage costs, not just our fee.
  • We show a low, expected, and high case, and plan around the low one.
◆After the assessment

The AI branch of your company.

If the numbers make sense, the next step is a monthly engagement. It is priced at the readout, from what the assessment found, and the $1,875 you already paid comes off the first month.

  • Monthly work alongside you: advising, building workflows, and supporting them
  • At least one workflow live in the first month, measured against what we estimated
  • No cap on workflows. We agree on a short list of priorities together each month
  • A monthly report of measured savings against the estimate, and what comes next
  • Software and AI usage billed to you directly, in accounts your company owns
  • If you ever leave, you keep every account and everything we built
◆Common questions

Straight answers before the first call.

Why is there only one price on this page?
Because the honest price for ongoing work depends on what we find. The assessment is a fixed $1,875. After the readout you get a price for the ongoing engagement, based on your workflows and your own numbers.
What does the $1,875 assessment include?
Two weeks of work: a survey and interviews with 5 to 10 of your key people, a map of how work flows and where time and money go, conservative value estimates, 1 or 2 working example workflows, a written report, and a readout meeting.
Is the assessment fee credited if we keep working together?
Yes. If you choose an ongoing engagement with Withn, the full $1,875 is credited to your first month of work.
What if we do not move forward after the assessment?
You keep everything. You own the report and the example workflows and can use them however you like: with us, with someone else, or on your own. The assessment commits neither side to further work.
How much of our team's time does it take?
A short survey and one 30 to 45 minute interview for each of the 5 to 10 people you choose, plus one point of contact on your side and reasonable access to the information we need.
Who pays for software and AI usage?
You do, directly, in accounts your company owns. We set them up and run them. The report includes an estimate of those monthly costs so there are no surprises.
Are the savings numbers in the report promises?
No. They are good-faith, conservative estimates built from your own numbers. Once a workflow is live, we measure it against the estimate and report the real result every month.
Is the first call really free?
Yes. It runs 60 minutes on Google Meet. If AI is not a fit for your business yet, we will say so on that call.
◆The next step

Bring us the bottleneck. We will find the right way through.

One working session to understand the business, clarify where AI fits, and identify the most practical next move: strategy, a website or app, an agent, automation, or a custom integration.
