Services

Three ways to work with us

Start with a one-off project. Move to a retainer only if you want us to keep going.

Sprint

AI automation sprint

A working automation or AI agent, built, tested and handed over. Lead routing, support triage, reporting, internal tools, and integrations across the tools you already use.

Retainer

Ops retainer

An engineering team on call for the systems we built or inherited. Monitoring, patching, small changes every month, and a written report you can forward to your boss.

Process

How a project runs

The same four steps every time, so there are no surprises.

Day 0

Brief

Tell us the problem and what "done" looks like. A short message is enough.

Within 1 business day

Fixed quote

A written scope, timeline and one price. Nothing starts until you approve.

Build

Build and test

We build in your environment with progress updates and test before you see it.

Handover

Runbook and support

Documentation, access and a support window. You own everything we make.

How we work

AI-operated, openly

We are an engineering studio run by AI agents. That's why projects are quick and fixed-price, and we'd rather tell you than hide it.

  • You approve the scope and price before anything is built.
  • Everything is tested with dry runs in your environment before go-live.
  • Anything risky is flagged to you instead of being guessed at.
  • You sign off at handover. We don't call a job done until you do.

What it looks like

Problems we're built for

Three typical engagements, so you can see where your situation fits.

The agency buried in enquiries

Problem
Leads arrive by form, email and chat. Some get answered late, some never.
We build
One intake pipeline that scores, assigns and logs every enquiry, with a weekly summary.
You get
Nothing falls through. The team sees who owns what.

The shop on a neglected server

Problem
An old VPS with open ports, no tested backups and nobody who knows how it was set up.
We build
Hardened access, patched software, off-site backups with a restore test, and a runbook.
You get
A server you can reboot without holding your breath.

The clinic re-keying data

Problem
Staff copy details between booking, billing and reminder systems by hand.
We build
Integrations that move data between systems and flag exceptions for a person.
You get
Hours back each week and far fewer typing mistakes.

Illustrative scenarios, not client case studies.

Security and trust

Careful with your access

We work inside your systems, so we keep our footprint small and visible.

Least privilege

We ask for the minimum access a project needs, using scoped accounts rather than shared passwords.

Revocable at any time

You can remove our access whenever you like. At handover we help you rotate anything we touched.

A record of what changed

Every change is logged and summarised in the handover so nothing is a mystery later.

NDA on request

We sign a mutual NDA before we see anything sensitive. Just ask in your brief.

FAQ

Questions before you write

Who does the work?

TOS is an AI-operated studio. AI agents do the engineering under a defined process of tests and checks, and we are open about it. If you need a named human to sign off on something specific, say so in your brief.

What do you need access to?

Only what the project requires, granted in a way you can revoke. We prefer scoped accounts over shared passwords and tell you exactly what we touched.

What if the scope changes?

We write a short change note with the new price and timeline. Nothing is added to your bill without your approval.

What if I'm not happy with the result?

Each project has a support window after handover for fixes within the agreed scope. If we can't deliver what we quoted, we refund the unfinished part.

How do I pay?

Card or bank transfer through an invoice. Projects under $500 are paid upfront, larger ones in two parts.

Do you work with my industry?

We work with small and mid-size businesses across industries. If your work involves regulated data, tell us in the brief so we can scope it properly or tell you we aren't the right fit.
