Clear starting prices

Start with clarity. Build only what creates value.

The number of workflows makes packages easy to understand. Final implementation pricing also reflects integrations, authority, data readiness, risk and exception handling. Following the Business Capacity Assessment™, AI & MAIN provides a defined scope and fixed project proposal before development begins.

Business Capacity Assessment™

What the price does not include

Custom implementation is separate.

The assessment includes discovery, analysis and a client opportunity report. Solution design is separately scoped. It does not include:

  • Custom AI development
  • Software integrations
  • Production deployment
  • Ongoing platform usage
  • Long-term monitoring

The report is yours to use in business decisions. It identifies opportunities; a separate engagement defines remedies and implementation.

AI workflow and Digital Team Member implementation

These starting prices apply to bounded implementations with documented outcomes, approved knowledge, authority, guardrails, testing and human escalation.

Workflow Launch

From $3,500

Best for: one repetitive process with a clear beginning, end and measurable outcome.

  • Shared business knowledge
  • Connected handoffs
  • Up to four standard system connections
  • Exception handling
  • Performance measures
  • Team orientation
  • 45-day stabilization

  • Up to five related workflows or roles
  • Cross-workflow orchestration
  • Shared knowledge architecture
  • Role, authority and escalation design

Complex or regulated work receives a custom proposal.
Sensitive data, advanced permissions, consequential decisions, unusual integrations and high exception volume require additional discovery and safeguards.

AI Operations Care Plans

Ongoing service is tied to real monitoring, maintenance and improvement—not simply continued access to something you already purchased.

One deployed workflow

Essential Care

$350
per month
  • Monthly health check
  • Basic usage and error monitoring
  • One small knowledge or instruction update
  • Incident triage
  • Monthly performance summary
  • Email support
Up to five workflows or roles

Managed AI Operations

From $1,500
per month
  • Proactive monitoring
  • Up to five hours of monthly refinement
  • Workflow and integration management
  • Quality and exception analysis
  • Quarterly roadmap review
  • Governance updates
  • Priority response

Platform, model, API and third-party software costs are billed separately unless specifically included in a proposal. New integrations and substantial redesign are separately scoped.

Choose the operating model that fits your team.

Client-owned deployment

Built in accounts your business owns and controls.

AI & MAIN builds and configures the solution inside accounts owned by your business. After testing, orientation and handoff, your team assumes responsibility for ongoing operation.

  • Your business controls accounts, access and administrative permissions
  • Your business pays platform, model and API charges directly
  • AI & MAIN provides agreed documentation, orientation and administrative handoff
  • The initial stabilization period is included
  • Ongoing monitoring and maintenance are optional through an AI Operations Care Plan
  • After stabilization, your team handles updates and issues unless a care plan is selected

Transparent starting points—not one-size-fits-all promises.

Pricing factorWhy it matters
Systems and integrationsConnecting approved systems adds development, testing and maintenance.
AuthorityAn assistant that drafts requires fewer safeguards than one permitted to take actions.
Data readinessIncomplete or inconsistent business information may need preparation first.
ExceptionsWorkflows with many unusual cases require more design and escalation logic.
RiskSensitive data or consequential decisions require stronger controls and review.
Founding-client bonus

AI Customer Follow-Up Assistant

After a meeting, phone call or customer inquiry, you enter a few notes about what was discussed. The assistant prepares:

Simple example

You enter: “Spoke with Maria about replacing her flooring. She wants the oak option and asked for an estimate by Friday.”

The assistant prepares: a customer-ready follow-up email, an internal reminder that the estimate is due Friday and a concise record of the conversation.

You remain in control.
The assistant does not contact customers automatically. A person reviews, edits and approves everything before it is used.

Founding-client limits: standardized tool, one initial configuration, one revision round, no custom integrations or automated sending, and 30 days of support.
