The consulting method
Two stages, two decisions, nothing taken on faith.
Most consulting asks you to buy the whole engagement before you have seen any of the work. We start with a short free call to check fit, then break the paid work into two stages. Each one ends with something written that belongs to you, and each one ends with you deciding whether the next stage is worth it.
Before Discovery begins
A short, free conversation — not a paid stage.
Not every business needs us, and not every business is ready. We look at scale, sector, where the enquiry came from, and whether there is a real decision-maker in the room. Sometimes the honest answer is that the money is not big enough to justify the work, or that the business should fix something simpler first. We say that early rather than late.
Stage one · 4–6 weeks
Discovery.
A single paid engagement. Ends in a written report you own outright.
We sit with the owner and go through the business properly — what it sells, to whom, at what margin, what the year looks like, where the pressure is, what has already been tried. It is a structured interview, not a sales meeting. Alongside it we study your sector using Indian sources: what comparable businesses run at, where this industry typically leaks, what other firms have tried in it and how that went.
Then we gather evidence from three directions at once and keep pulling until the picture holds together.
Every finding is sized in rupees, with the working shown.
Conversations
Calls, meetings, WhatsApp threads, voice notes — decoded into findings, with a register of every place two people told us different things.
Documents
Invoices, registers, spreadsheets, photographs of ledgers. Sorted into readable, partial and unreadable — and you get a one-page list of what we could not use, so you can fix it in two minutes.
The floor
We walk the premises station by station and map what enters, what leaves, who owns it, what paper it generates, and where work physically sits waiting.
Around the halfway mark we stop and show you the business as we currently see it. No recommendations, no conclusions — just the mirror. Money in, money out, the gaps, the rhythm of the year, and a straight slide listing what we have not been able to examine. You correct us there, before any of it hardens into a finding.
You leave with
- Coverage of what we actually saw
- Findings sized in rupees, with the working shown
- Quick wins and structural fixes
- The AI implementation map and a proposed build order
If you stop here, it is still yours to act on — with your own team, or with anyone else.
AI embedded in the workflows your team already uses.
Stage two · 3-month minimum
Implementation.
Where Discovery becomes real — AI built into how the business runs.
This is not a narrow pilot bolted onto one process, and it is not a demo. We take the priorities from the report and build AI into the workflows your team already uses — embedded in how the business runs, not a tool sitting beside it.
We build in stages so the business can absorb it without disruption. Each stage starts from a baseline agreed in writing, so there is no argument later about what changed. You see visible progress throughout, and we pressure-test each piece against real, awkward cases before asking for sign-off — in writing.
Once a stage is live, we measure what actually happened over the following sixty days and report it plainly, including when the number is smaller than we hoped.
- AI embedded in how the business runs day to day
- A measured sixty-day result you can verify yourself
- Handed over to your team — long term, you own it
What we will not do
Three promises, kept in writing.
Quote before scope
We do not put a consulting price on the website. The Discovery fee is fixed and we will tell you on the first call; everything after it depends on what Discovery finds.
Hide the gaps
Every report states what we could not examine. A finding without evidence behind it does not go in.
Build and leave
Implementation that is not measured after it goes live is not finished. The sixty-day measurement is part of the work, not an add-on.
