Engagements

One fixed price to find out. Everything after is your call.

We do not sell tiers. There is one starting engagement with a firm number, and two things that can follow it — but only if the first one earns them.

01 — start here

AiM Bootcamp

$3,000 + GST

Six to eight weeks · 2–3 hours of your week

Start a conversation

A structured assessment of how your firm actually works, what AI is worth against it, and one working proof of concept built on your own files. It ends with a firm quote for whatever should happen next — or a recommendation that nothing should.

What you receive

  • A current-state map of how work moves through your firm
  • An AI opportunity assessment, including Microsoft 365 and Copilot readiness
  • A prioritised roadmap, ranked against your own stated frustrations
  • A business value summary, measured rather than estimated
  • A working proof of concept, live in your own environment
  • A recommended next project, with a firm price

Half on signing the engagement letter, half on delivery. Invoices payable within fifteen days.

02 — only if it earns it

Implementation

Quoted fixed price

Priced at the end of the bootcamp

Building the thing the assessment identified as worth building. We do not price it up front, because before the assessment neither of us honestly knows what it is. You get a fixed number and a written scope, then you decide.

  • Design and build of the agreed solution
  • File structure design and migration
  • Training and adoption for the people who will use it
  • Documentation and the measures we agreed to be judged on
03 — optional, ongoing

Fractional AI Partner

Monthly

Month to month · thirty days' notice · no lock-in

For firms that would rather have someone keeping an eye on this than manage it themselves. The rate depends on how much there is to look after, so we set it once we know what that is.

  • Ongoing advisory as the tools change
  • Coaching for the people using them day to day
  • Automation, as and when it earns its place
  • A quarterly review and a refreshed roadmap

Boundaries

What is not included.

Said plainly, because a surprise on an invoice is worse than a number you did not like.

ItemHow it is handled
Software licencesYou buy them from the vendor directly. We name which, and what they cost. We take no margin on them.
Work beyond the proof of conceptBelongs to Implementation, quoted at the end of the bootcamp.
Processing scanned archivesPriced separately once the volume is known, and only if you want it.
Website or content workA separate conversation, not part of an AI engagement.
Cancelling what you already pay forNothing is cancelled or downgraded without your written confirmation.

Questions

About the money.

Why one price instead of tiers?
Tiers ask you to guess which one you need before anyone has looked at your firm. The bootcamp is deliberately the same piece of work for everyone: find out what is true here, then price the rest honestly.
What if we stop after the bootcamp?
A normal and perfectly good outcome. The bootcamp stands alone — you keep the assessment, the roadmap, the proof of concept and the working. Nothing about it depends on buying the next step.
Can you tell us the return up front?
No, and we would be wary of anyone who did. Instead we record where your time goes before anything changes, at a rate you set, then time the same tasks at the end. Measured and estimated figures stay separate, and anything that got slower goes in as well. If the number is small, you will see the small number.
Are there taxes?
All prices are in Canadian dollars and 5% GST is added. Our GST registration number is on every invoice. Atlas Metrics is a general partnership registered in British Columbia.
How do we pay?
E-transfer or cheque. Half on signing, half on delivery, payable within fifteen days.
Can we stop partway through?
Either side can end an engagement with fourteen days' written notice. Fees settle for work delivered to that point, and everything produced for you is yours to keep.

Next step

Not sure it is worth $3,000 to find out?

Then have the conversation first. It costs nothing, and if we do not think an assessment would pay for itself at your size, we will say so on the call.
