Focused first engagementDone-for-you service

7-Day Automation Sprint

Turn one repeated bottleneck into a working, documented workflow without starting a company-wide transformation project.

Engagement

From $2,500

Fixed scope for one qualifying workflow. Final scope is agreed before work begins.

One live automation, tested against representative cases and delivered with a written SOP, recorded walkthrough, and 30 days of post-launch support.

Scope

One workflow

Delivery

7 working days

Handover

Documented

Support

30 days

What changes

A clearer operating handoff.

The implementation is designed around concrete behavior your team can see, own, and measure after launch.

Scope

One workflow

One trigger, a defined normal path, and named exception handling.

Delivery

7 working days

A focused build after access and scope are confirmed.

Handover

Documented

SOP, walkthrough, ownership, and intervention instructions.

Support

30 days

Post-launch support for the delivered workflow.

Delivery

What happens during the sprint

Every phase has a decision, an owner, and an observable output.

01

Day 1 · Map

Confirm the trigger, systems, normal path, exceptions, owner, baseline, and success criteria.

02

Days 2–3 · Build

Connect the approved tools, implement deterministic logic, and add bounded AI only where useful.

03

Days 4–5 · Test

Run representative normal, incomplete, duplicate, delayed, and exception cases.

04

Day 6 · Prepare

Add alerts, confirm permissions, write the operating procedure, and prepare the walkthrough.

05

Day 7 · Launch

Review the system with the owner, agree on rollout controls, and move the workflow into use.

Included

Deliverables you can operate.

Final scope reflects the selected workflow, but ownership, testing, exception handling, and documentation are part of the delivery—not optional polish.

Workflow map with trigger, systems, steps, and ownership
One implemented automation in client-controlled accounts
Validation, duplicate handling, and documented exception paths
Representative test cases and launch checklist
Basic monitoring and failure notification
Written standard operating procedure
Recorded walkthrough for the workflow owner
Thirty days of support for the delivered scope

Strong fit

  • The process repeats frequently and has a recognizable normal path.
  • The required systems provide usable access, exports, or integrations.
  • One person can own decisions and review exceptions.
  • The first version can focus on one trigger and one outcome.
  • Sensitive actions can remain approval-gated.

Needs a different scope

  • A company-wide platform migration or data-warehouse project
  • Several unrelated workflows packaged as one request
  • A process the team has not yet defined or agreed on
  • An autonomous system making high-stakes decisions without review
  • A custom product requiring a new application and ongoing feature roadmap
01

The sprint is designed around a thin, useful slice

A focused workflow reaches production faster because the trigger, scope, owner, and expected result are explicit. The sprint does not attempt to automate an entire function. It completes one handoff well enough to produce real operational evidence.

Good examples include routing a qualified inquiry into the CRM, turning approved intake into a project setup, triaging a shared inbox, or assembling a recurring internal report from known sources.

If discovery reveals that data cleanup, access, or process definition must happen first, you receive a clear recommendation before build work proceeds.

02

You own the operating system, not a black box

Where platforms allow it, workflows are built inside accounts controlled by your business. Credentials, billing, and the decision to pause the system remain with you.

The handover explains what starts the workflow, what each step changes, how exceptions appear, and how to intervene. The goal is confident ownership after launch—not ongoing dependency.

03

Launch controls match the consequence of failure

Low-risk internal steps may run automatically after testing. Customer-facing, financial, destructive, or uncertain actions remain behind review unless the approved scope establishes a safer rule.

The first weeks are used to observe real inputs, correct missing exceptions, and confirm that the baseline outcome is moving in the intended direction.

FAQ

Important questions, answered directly.

Does every sprint finish exactly seven calendar days after inquiry?

No. The seven working days begin after the workflow is accepted, scope is agreed, and required access and owner availability are confirmed.

Which platforms can be used?

The choice may include Zapier, Make, n8n, or custom integration code depending on the workflow, existing stack, usage, security, and operating owner.

Are software subscriptions included?

The business normally owns and pays for the software accounts and usage its workflow requires. Expected third-party costs are identified during scope.

What happens if the workflow is too large for a sprint?

The work is narrowed to a useful first phase or scoped as a connected operations project. You receive that recommendation before implementation begins.

Can the sprint include AI?

Yes, when one step benefits from classification, extraction, summarization, or drafting. AI output is bounded, validated where possible, and review-gated according to risk.

Start with the workflow that keeps slipping.

Describe the trigger, tools, repeated work, and current failure point. You will receive a direct view on fit, scope, and the safest first version.
