A focused first project

Start with a Lighthouse.

A Lighthouse is a fixed-fee first project on one critical business process. We build with your team and measure the result. You decide whether to scale it, change it or stop.

Start with a Lighthouse

See the result before you scale.

Our senior operators and engineers work alongside your team, from agreeing what needs to improve to running the system in day-to-day work. We help your people use it and compare the results with how the process works today.

A problem worth solving

A chosen workflow, owner and baseline

Choose one workflow that matters, and agree with your team what a useful result looks like.

A working system

A measured result in production

Built on your systems, with the people who will use it, and measured in production.

A decision with evidence

  • Scale it
  • Change it
  • Stop

See what worked and what needs to change. Then scale it, change it or stop.

How a Lighthouse runs

Four stages. One decision, backed by evidence.

Clear terms from the start.

We agree the scope and fee with you before work begins, including how we'll measure success.

Agreed timeline

Most Lighthouse deployments can be done in 45 days, longer for more complex businesses. We agree the timeline upfront.

Fee credit

The full Lighthouse fee is credited against your first-year fees when you sign within 45 days of the Lighthouse readout.

AI usage

Your proposal sets out AI usage charges separately from the fee. The credit doesn't apply to them.
