Flat. 50 percent on kickoff. 50 percent on delivery.
Three working workflow modules
Login and user management plumbing
Production-ready deployment

Promise
If any of these are yes, the Pilot is for you.
Is your ops still running on Excel?
Is WhatsApp your system of record?
Is the senior person in your team the bottleneck when they are unavailable?
Proof
What we can defend today.
Founder led delivery
Every Pilot is run by the founder. No agency stack. Capacity is honest, which is why there are only two slots per cycle.
No fabricated metrics
We do not claim 3x, 5x, or any other percentage we cannot back. When the first Pilots deliver, the numbers will come from the clients who opt in to share them.
Credentialed, not self-taught
IATA and IBS Special Jury Prize for applied engineering. Udacity Nanodegree in Neural Networks. WebXLR8 and Navadarsi as real working partnerships.
Plan
Three steps to working software.
01
Free 20-minute fit call
Walk through the workflow that is breaking. We confirm the Pilot shape is right for your situation, or say it is not.
02
Written quote, three modules listed
We send a written quote naming the three modules we will build. Nothing hidden. Fixed price.
03
50 percent kickoff, 28 day build, 14 day live test, 50 percent on delivery
Predictable cadence. Weekly check-ins. Working increments delivered on the way, not a black-box reveal at the end.
Three Modules, In Practice
What your Pilot could look like.
We pick the three highest friction workflows in your operation. Below are examples for three verticals we have delivered into. Yours will be scoped on the fit call.
US Logistics (10 to 50 truck fleet operators)
- 01 Dispatch intake: a shared board replacing the WhatsApp thread, with state (pending, assigned, on route, delivered) and per-truck history.
- 02 Driver log capture: pre-trip, on-trip, post-trip entries with timestamps and photos, no more paper logs.
- 03 Customer status view: a read-only link your customer can open to see where their load is without calling dispatch.
Trading and distribution
- 01 Order intake: one form for sales reps replacing the master sheet, with stock validation at entry.
- 02 Approval routing: orders above a threshold route to the senior person with one-click approve or reject.
- 03 Shipment tracker: internal view of what has shipped, what is stuck, and what is coming back as returns.
Professional services (consulting, tax, advisory)
- 01 Client intake: structured onboarding replacing the ad-hoc email and PDF cycle.
- 02 Document collection: clients upload into a private space that notifies the team, auto-organised by engagement.
- 03 Engagement status view: a consultant-facing board that is the single truth for what is open, what is waiting on the client, and what is closed.
Dual Guarantee
Two-sided risk reversal.
The guarantee is in the contract, not the marketing copy. Both halves written in plain language.
Delivery
If we miss the 30 day delivery date for reasons on our side, we continue at no additional charge until delivery is complete, and we apply a twenty-five percent discount to any follow-on engagement.
Fitness for purpose
After fourteen days of live use, if the Pilot is not solving the scoped problem, fifty percent refund. You keep the code, the deployment, and the documentation. No clawback, no lawyers.
Honest Exclusion
Who this is for, and who it is not.
Good fit
- Three to five CRUD workflows with state, roles, and notifications
- Teams running on Excel, WhatsApp, email, or paper today
- Operators who want a working system in weeks, not a selection process in months
- Founders and senior leaders willing to show up for one hour in week one and short check-ins each week after
Not a fit
- Real-time GPS tracking with sub-second updates
- Complex multi-tenant SaaS products with millions of end users
- Enterprise ERP replacements (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite)
- Anything requiring formal SOC 2 or HIPAA audit inside 30 days
If You Do Nothing
The spreadsheet keeps breaking. The senior person stays the bottleneck.
Six months from now you are in the same place, just more frustrated and one senior hire further away from actually solving it. The Pilot is a bounded way out.
FAQ
Pilot questions, answered.
What if we need more than three modules?
We will flag it on the fit call. The Pilot is intentionally bounded at three so delivery is predictable. If you need more, the Pilot becomes the first chunk of a larger engagement, which we scope separately once the first outcome is in your team's hands.
What technology stack do you use?
Modern defaults with deliberate choices. Node.js, React or Next.js on the front end, PostgreSQL for data, AWS or Cloudflare for hosting, and integrations with whatever your team already uses (WhatsApp Business, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365). The stack is picked for your situation, not our preference.
Can we add modules after the Pilot delivers?
Yes. Many Pilots lead to follow-on engagements where additional modules, integrations, and automations layer onto the foundation we built in the first 30 days. We do not charge a separate onboarding for you to continue with us.
Who hosts the Pilot after delivery?
By default we deploy to a production-ready Cloudflare or AWS environment under your account. You own the deployment. If you prefer us to host and manage it, that becomes a small Strategic Retainer after handover.
Do you offer an Arabic interface for GCC clients?
Where the workflow warrants it, yes. We can build the Pilot with right-to-left Arabic support and mixed-language content. Flag it on the fit call so we can scope it correctly.
What about support after the 30 days?
The first fourteen days of live use are covered as part of the Pilot. After that, support is either ad hoc (billed hourly) or part of a Strategic Retainer. You are never locked in.
How many Pilots do you run at once?
Two at a time. Founder led delivery means capacity is the binding constraint. If both slots are filled, we will quote the next available cycle and start no later than that.
