FAQ
What if my project is more complex than a 28-day MVP?▾
We'll scope it as an Enterprise AI Pilot with a custom timeline. Phase 1 (Inference) lets us catch this before you commit to the full engagement.
Do I own the code?▾
Yes — full IP transfer on Day 28. No retainer required to keep ownership.
What if you don't ship in 28 days?▾
The next sprint is on us. We don't refund — we deliver. We've never had to extend.
Can I start with a retainer instead of MVP?▾
Yes, if you already have an architecture in mind or have shipped AI before. Otherwise we recommend starting with the 28-Day MVP for the discovery + architecture deliverables.
Do you sign DPAs / vendor questionnaires?▾
Yes. 48-hour turnaround on standard questionnaires. See /trust for our compliance posture.
What happens after Day 28?▾
Your choice: take ownership and run with it, or transition to a retainer for ongoing development.
Can I see a sample architecture artifact?▾
Yes — request one via the AI Playbook download or contact form.
How do I lock my project in?▾
Talk to us. We confirm scope, send a Statement of Work, and you sign + pay 50% upfront. Phase 1 starts within 5 business days.
Fixed scope, transparent pricing. Every engagement is bounded — you know what you’re paying before we start, and what you’re getting on day 28. No retainer creep, no surprise scope adjustments, no “discovery phase” line items.
