Ways to start
Fixed scope, fixed price, and a finding you can act on — with or without us.
REVIEW
AI Capability Review
The models you run, the harness around them, and the people who direct the work.
One review, five answers: what you should run, what it runs inside, how the work should flow, what it actually costs, and who can direct it. Grounded in our own agentic delivery programs, not vendor material.
BUILD
Rapid MVP
A production-grade MVP in a fixed window: real codebase, your infrastructure, the highest-value slice shipped.
Time and price are fixed; scope is shaped ruthlessly to fit, which is the discipline that makes the window possible. The AI variant applies the same discipline to an agentic feature or workflow: your data, your model choice, an evaluation harness, and production-shaped from day one.
REVIEW
Capability Review
How your delivery actually runs, measured against how work ships.
We look at practices, tooling, pipeline and decision flow, and tell you where delivery slips and why. It is a review of conditions, not a scorecard of your people.
Variants: agile · engineering · digital · product
REVIEW
Code Review
An independent read of a codebase you own, inherited, or are about to buy.
Architecture and code-quality assessment, security and dependency red flags, and a prioritised view of what to fix first. Used for due diligence, vendor handover, inherited systems, and as a baseline before modernisation.
DISCOVERY
Product Discovery
What to build, in what order, and what it will take.
A time-boxed run at the problem space: users, constraints, existing systems, and the options worth costing. We spike where the answer is genuinely unknown and prototype where a working demonstration settles an argument faster than a document.
DISCOVERY
Business Case
The build questions answered for the people who sign: feasible, how, and at what cost.
Costed options, sequencing, and a risk position, written to survive a board, a CFO, or a procurement panel. We won't write your transformation strategy. We'll tell you whether the thing can be built, the ways it could be, and what each would cost.
WORKSHOP
Roadmap Workshop
Turns a backlog argument into a sequenced plan.
We facilitate; you decide. Trade-offs made explicit, priorities argued to a decision, and the first sprint defined before anyone leaves the room. A day for a team, longer where the roadmap spans portfolios or the room needs more voices.
WORKSHOP
Hackathon
Your people, one problem, a short clock. We bring the structure.
The format flexes to the goal: generating concepts, testing designs, shipping working code, proving agentic tooling on a real problem, or a red team challenge that puts your engineers on the attack. Part capability demonstration, part proof of what your people can do with the right conditions.
Variants: ideas · design · engineering · AI · red team and CTF (cyber)
Or start with nothing
We brief boards and executive teams for free, with the material we take to stages like the Gartner IT Symposium: what agentic AI is doing to cost, sovereignty and team shape. No pitch, no slides about us.
Talk to a Co-CEO
No handover to a sales team. One conversation, and you'll know if a review or workshop is worth it.
FAQs
How long does a discovery phase take?
2 weeks for most engagements. Long enough to test the genuinely unknown parts and produce costed options, short enough that it doesn't become a substitute for building. We work in with your stakeholders availability.
What's the difference between a proof of concept and an MVP?
A proof of concept answers a question and then stops. It's throwaway code proving one thing works, and its job is to kill or confirm an assumption cheaply.
An MVP is production-grade software that ships: real codebase, your infrastructure, running in front of users.
The failure mode most organisations hit is building proofs of concept and then trying to promote them to production, which is how you end up with a dozen pilots and nothing live.
What is an AI capability review?
An assessment of whether your organisation can actually get value from AI, rather than whether the technology works. It covers which models you should run and where they should run, the architecture and tooling around them, how much you're spending and what that spend is returning, and which of your people can direct agentic work. The last one matters more than most organisations expect.
Can we procure these through a panel?
Yes. We're verified on BuyICT federally and QITC and eServices in Queensland. Fixed-scope, fixed-price engagements like these fit panel procurement cleanly, which is usually faster than getting a full delivery engagement approved.
Do you work fixed price or time and materials?
Every one of these is fixed scope and fixed price, agreed before we start, with no variations. If the work turns out harder than we scoped, that's ours to carry, not yours. It's a deliberate constraint on both sides: it forces us to scope honestly rather than optimistically, and it means you know the number before you commit rather than after.
Do you work with clients across Australia?
We travel for this work across Australia to deliver these in person. We'll run any of it remotely if that's your preference, and it works, but the outcomes are consistently better face to face: the workshops in particular depend on reading a room and on the conversations that happen between sessions, and reviews surface more when people can point at a screen together.
