Consulting · Custom & retainer

Work priced against the job

Not everything is an audit or a build. When the work is yours alone, we write the spec and quote against it.

Four ways to buy

Pick the shape, not the hours

Fixed price against a spec

Priced per job

A defined piece of work, quoted once we agree the spec. Think a workflow or an integration.

  • We write the spec with you before quoting
  • One price, agreed in writing
  • The price does not move unless the spec does

Retainer

Monthly

Standing capacity for teams doing this continuously. A regular call and hands-on delivery between them.

  • An agreed number of days a month
  • A named person who knows your systems
  • Cancellable, with a month’s notice

Day rate

Per day

Bounded help. A workshop, a technical review, or a second opinion on someone else’s proposal.

  • No minimum engagement
  • Useful when you already know the question
  • Often one day is the whole job

Done for you

Per result or by volume

You send the input and take the finished output. Nothing to set up, and no software of your own to run.

  • Priced per document or by monthly volume
  • Runs on the same platform our builds use
  • Bring it in-house whenever the volume justifies it

How we price a job

The spec comes before the number

A quote you cannot check is a quote you cannot argue with.

01

You describe the job

What comes in, what should come out, and what counts as done. A call is usually enough.

02

We write the spec

In plain English, including what is out of scope. You read it back and correct it.

03

We quote against it

One price for a fixed job, or a day count for a retainer. Always in writing.

04

The price holds

If the job turns out harder than we thought, that is our problem. It moves only when the spec moves.

Done for you

Buy the result, not the tool

Two jobs we already run this way. Ask about anything else.

Send us candidate CVs and get them back in your house style. Polished DOCX and PDF, every one consistent.

Get started
01

You send the input

The CVs, the documents, the data — however you already have them. No account, no tool to learn.

02

We run it on Opafex

The same grounded platform does the work, quality-checked before anything comes back.

03

You get the finished result

Polished, on-brand output ready to use. You pay for the result, not the hours behind it.

04

Bring it in-house when ready

When the volume justifies it, graduate to a build or your own agent. Same engine, now yours.

One engine, three depths

However far you want to take it

Only who does the running changes; the platform stays. You never start over.
