Paid into build phase. Refunded in full if we miss the spec. Our engineering cost goes on top, non-refundable to us. Skin. Game. Both.
No work. No bill.
Yes, really. £5k refundable per agent. Per-output billing from £0.05 once it's live. Failed outputs aren't charged. The contract carries the risk, not your finance team.
Pence for a flagged clause. Pounds for a full onboarding. Fixed for the term. Agreed before build.
Set by complexity, infrastructure, and ongoing maintenance and improvement. An agent can scale within its band — it isn't priced per concurrent job.
Misses the criteria, doesn't get charged. Remediation on us. The contract is unambiguous.
A frozen agent is dead weight. The long term funds the refinement. Monthly billing. Caps available.

Plenty of agencies can build agents. Few will let you pay only when one delivers.

What buyers ask
before signing.
What counts as an output?
A completed unit of work that meets the acceptance criteria from design phase. One LOE is one output. One onboarded client is one output. Defined up front, no debate at billing.
What’s "acceptance criteria"?
The specific, measurable conditions an output has to meet to count. Document matches template. Required fields populated. Passes the reviewer checklist. Signed off in design. If an output fails the criteria, it isn’t charged.
Do I pay anything up front?
Yes. £5k refundable per agent, paid going into build. Full refund if we don’t deliver to spec. Our engineering cost on top is the bigger number, and we don’t get that back.
Monthly minimum?
Yes — the monthly platform fee, from £250 to £3,000 per agent. It’s set by complexity, infrastructure, and ongoing maintenance and improvement, and an agent can scale within its band — it isn’t priced per concurrent job.
Can I cap my spend?
Yes. Monthly cap, written into the contract. Hit the cap, processing pauses until next cycle or you lift it. No surprise invoices.
Minimum contract?
36 months. Honest answer: agentic technology moves fast, and a 12 month engagement is a build-and-walk pattern we’re trying to kill. Monthly billing throughout.
Do prices go up?
Per-output prices are fixed for the term. Monthly minimum reviewed annually, capped at CPI. No surprise uplifts.
What if our usage is low?
We talk. We’d rather rescope than bill you for work that isn’t happening.
Other fees?
No setup, no integration, no hidden line items. Outputs plus the monthly platform fee agreed in your spec. That’s the invoice.
A straight answer on
whether an agent fits.
We'd rather lose half an hour than build something that won't earn its keep. If an agent doesn't fit your process, we'll tell you. If it does, we'll show you exactly how, what it'll cost, and how fast it'll ship.
