Fees
How the fees are structured
Fixed fee by phase, quoted in writing after the assessment. We publish what we can so you know whether we are plausibly in budget before booking a call.
Every engagement starts at the bottom rung. The assessment is credited in full against a build, so the first step costs nothing if you continue.
Readiness assessment$4,500
2 weeks. Credited in full against a build started within 90 days.
Build and deployScoped on call
8–12 weeks, fixed fee by phase. Quoted in writing after the assessment.
Governance retainer$2,500 / mo
Quarterly assurance. Optional.
Ranges are indicative. Every engagement is quoted in writing before it starts, and the quote does not move unless you change the scope.
Founding cohort · five firms
Five firms, below-market founding rates
We are taking five firms into the founding cohort, then closing it. The lower fee is an explicit exchange: you give us candid feedback and permission to document what changes, and we give you founding rates and direct partner involvement. We built the method on Pyxl first. Its internal result—gross margin +1,300 bps and EBITDA margin +1,800 bps, with no layoffs and no cut to production capacity—is strong evidence of what happened there, not proof of what will happen everywhere. The cohort is how we test whether the method travels.
What you get
- Founding rates held for the engagement
- Direct partner involvement
- Founding rates honored on the next engagement
- More partner attention than later clients receive
What we ask
- Candid feedback
- A documented case study, anonymized if preferred
- Occasional reference call if mutually appropriate
- Named ownership on your side
None of it is a publicity requirement. If the results are not good enough to talk about, we would rather know that than have you say something polite.
We review applications in the order they arrive and reply either way within a week. When the fifth engagement is signed, this page changes.
The same efficiency, three different outcomes
The same efficiency can produce different commercial outcomes. You can hold the fee and keep more margin, deliberately share part of the gain to win volume or renewal, or let an hourly structure pass the gain through automatically. Technology creates the efficiency; the commercial model decides where it lands.
Hold the fee
100% to your margin0% to the client
You keep the whole gain. Defensible where the client buys an outcome and the price was never a function of hours.
Share the gain
60% to your margin40% to the client
A deliberate trade: some margin back to the client in exchange for volume, renewal or a competitive position.
Bill by the hour
0% to your margin100% to the client
Faster delivery, smaller invoice. The client receives the entire gain whether or not either of you intended it.

The structure
Why we do not bill hourly
We do not bill hourly because our incentive should not be to take longer. Under a fixed fee, you approve a number before work begins and we carry the delivery risk inside the agreed scope. If the work takes longer within that scope, the fee does not change.
Model this on your own engagements →Why the fee is what it is
You are not paying for the experiment
18 months of investment in the system, the processes and the prompt library. Already spent.
We built it for ourselves first, at our own cost, on a live P&L with real clients and real deadlines. The wrong turns were ours. The rebuilt method, the prompt architecture and the platform all exist because we paid to find out what works.
What you are buying is the configuration of something that already runs, to your firm and your service lines. That is why an engagement costs a fraction of building the same capability in-house, and why it takes months rather than years.
The method already exists
Assess, Build, Deploy, Govern was developed and corrected on our own delivery before any client saw it.
The platform already runs
Pyxl Intelligence is the internal implementation. Maybank Service Intelligence is the client-facing version configured for other professional services firms. You configure it, you do not commission it.
The prompt architecture already works
Structure, review gates and version discipline are proven. Only the content is specific to you, drawn from your methods.
Maybank · comparison is against a firm building the same capability itself, not against another advisor's fee
Scoping
What moves a quote up or down
Four factors account for nearly all the variance. Two of them you can influence before you engage anyone.

What protects you
There is no performance guarantee, and you should be suspicious of one.
No adviser can guarantee a margin outcome inside a firm they do not run. What we can do is structure the commercial relationship so that the risk of being wrong sits with us in the places where it should. Six of those are in the terms, not in a promise.
The assessment is credited
The $4,500 readiness assessment is credited in full against a build begun within 90 days. If the assessment says do not proceed, you have paid $4,500 to find that out.
Fixed fee by phase
Each phase is quoted in writing before it starts. There is no open-ended hourly relationship to manage.
It keeps working without us
Prompt libraries, review standards, documentation and the work product built for your firm sit in your own systems and keep running after the engagement ends. License terms are set out in the engagement agreement.
No technology lock-in
the firm-specific assets are delivered into systems you control. If we stop working together, what was built keeps running.
Governance is optional
The $2,500 monthly retainer is a choice after the build, not a condition of it.
Sixty days notice
Either side can end the governance retainer with 60 days written notice.
Fee questions
Questions about the fee
If your question is not here, we will answer it directly rather than making you book a call to find out.

Watch the 18-minute briefing first.
It explains the economic question the Assessment is designed to answer—and what the Pyxl result does and does not establish.
Not sure which phase you need?
The assessment takes three minutes and gives you a better starting point for the fee conversation.
