Architecture · your AI office

Let us be the Architects of your fully functioning AI Office!

Most vendors hand you a tool and leave the joins to you. We design the whole chain inside your business — enquiry to job, quote to invoice, hire to first shift — so the work moves itself and your people only make decisions.

Products we build and run

Kinetic Workday

Our own workforce platform — and the clearest example of what we install. On the Premium plan people clock in on arrival: the site is geofenced, the phone confirms presence, and the shift opens with one tap (hands-free detection on supported devices). No badge, no button, no kiosk queue.

Because arrival writes the hour instead of a typed correction later, there are far fewer manual adjustments to unpick on Friday: no retro-edited shifts, no "I forgot to clock out", no arguing over a rounded time. Records are kept for six months and exportable on request, so an audit, a wage query or a dispute is answered from the record rather than from memory. Breaks, sick, personal and vacation stay in their own records, the who's-in board shows who is on site right now, and the weekly close runs through a verification of the time process — the work is checked, and in Premium two named people confirm it — before anyone hits pay.

Arrival-based clock-in is a Premium capability; the one-time licence ships the standard clock-in screen. Both run the same timesheets and absence records; the two-person verification of the time process is Premium-only.

Products are the components; architecture is the plan that connects them — we design and build the fully automated workflow around them too.

It is the reference build for what we do — a small business system with the controls a finance team actually needs.

All prices in USD and exclusive of tax. A service fee is excluded from every price shown and is charged on each transaction, including one-time projects, retainers, upgrades and product licences. Third-party model and API usage is billed at cost. Quotes are fixed once scoped and signed. Prices are subject to change without notice. Figures are indicative and drawn from completed work; final scope, timing and price are set in a signed statement of work, and timings assume timely access to your systems and data.

How we price

Priced to stay in business.
Yours to check.

A price is only good if it survives delivery. These are the numbers behind ours, assuming a blended delivery cost of about $80 an hour.

margin on retainers

The audit is deliberately the cheapest entry — it costs us little and sells the build. Care plans carry the margin and the relationship: a build without a retainer is a one-night stand.

Built for the small crew

The AI boom wasn't built
for a 9-person shop.
We built it anyway.

Every AI roadmap is written for a company with a data team, a consultant and a six-figure budget. Most businesses have none of those — they have a manager who closes payroll on Friday and a roster on the wall.

Kinetic starts at five seats, costs about a coffee per employee per day, and needs nobody technical to run it.

Bring us your messiest week.

Twenty minutes, no pitch deck. Tell us what eats your time; we'll tell you whether AI can fix it, what it would cost, and what it won't do.

In plain terms

What we promise, and what we don’t.

We promise

  • Scope, price and dates in writing before any work starts
  • Named people on your project, not a rotating bench
  • Documentation and a handover you can run without us
  • Your data stays yours and exports at any time
  • Responses inside the hours stated on your plan

We don’t promise

  • A specific saving, headcount reduction or revenue figure
  • That AI replaces your team — it removes steps, not people
  • Zero manual exceptions in every case
  • A launch date that depends on access we don’t control
  • 24/7 cover unless it is written into your plan

Standard terms: 50% deposit on projects, 14-day notice on retainers, liability capped at fees paid in the previous three months, change requests quoted before work. Full terms provided with every statement of work.

Client interference. If the client, or anyone the client brings in, alters, suspends, overrides or interferes with the infrastructure, integrations, credentials or automations we have built or configured, we may treat the engagement as terminated by the client for cause. In that event the agreement is void, fees already paid are forfeited as liquidated damages, and the full remaining contract value becomes payable immediately. Reinstatement, if we agree to it, is quoted and treated as new work.
