Engineering drawing of an automation pipeline: intake through transform, a fail-closed QA gate with a held tray, and a scheduler delivering to CMS, CRM, and GBP.
01 / BUILD ARCHETYPES

Content engine

A per-brand publishing engine: drafts, scores against your rules, renders branded imagery, and publishes to your CMS on a schedule. Social promotion included.

Publishes to your CMS · posts to your channels

$5,000–8,0003–4 weeks

Reporting & attribution pipeline

A pipeline that pulls from your analytics, ad, and call-tracking sources, ties leads back to their first touch, and syncs a clean report to your CRM and inbox.

Syncs to your CRM · scheduled reporting

$4,000–6,0002–3 weeks

GBP / local automation

Automated Google Business Profile posting, review-response drafting, and local content updates across every location — with a fail-closed check before anything goes live.

Posts to GBP · multi-location

$4,000–5,0002 weeks
02 / INCLUDED / NOT INCLUDED

What's included

  • Scoped, fixed-price build with a clear deliverable
  • Publishes to your CMS, syncs to your CRM, posts to your channels
  • Documentation + a handoff walkthrough
  • 30 days of post-launch support
  • Built by the operator who scoped it — no handoffs

Not included

  • Ongoing content production (that's the Local / Growth engines)
  • Paid ads infrastructure
  • Guaranteed rankings
  • Rebuilds of a tool you already run well

The "not included" column builds more trust than the included one. We'd rather you know the edges up front.

03 / QA & COMPLIANCE

Built to fail closed

Automation without guardrails is a liability. Every build we ship has the same fail-closed philosophy as our retainers: it refuses to publish or push bad data rather than doing it silently.

You get the outcomes and integrations — not a black box. Documentation and a walkthrough are part of every delivery.

Fail-closed by design

The system refuses to publish work that doesn't clear the gate. Silence is a feature: nothing bad ships just to hit a schedule.

04 / PRICING

05 / FAQ
What's the timeline?

Most builds run 2–4 weeks from kickoff to handoff, depending on integrations.

Do I own the system?

Yes. You own the build, the documentation, and any accounts it runs on.

Can you run it for us after?

If you want it operated instead of handed off, that's a Local or Growth retainer.

What integrations do you support?

We publish to common CMS platforms, sync to major CRMs, and post to the usual social + GBP channels. We name integrations, not internal tooling.

What if it breaks after handoff?

30 days of post-launch support is included. After that, a light support retainer is available.

How do we start?

A scoping call, then a fixed-price proposal. No open-ended hourly work.
