$999The Time-Back Audit — now booking

Find 5 hrs a week per person — or pay nothing.

Your next hire is already on your payroll. We'll find them — 5–10 hours a week, per person — or you don't pay.

Most businesses buy capacity with headcount. The Time-Back Audit is a 45-minute teardown that finds the hours your team loses to repetitive work, prescribes the exact off-the-shelf AI tools to win them back, and prices the result in your numbers: more clients served, same payroll. $999. If we can't find at least 5 hours a week, you pay nothing.

How it works

From leak to capacity, in four steps.

One week from booking to your first hours back. No discovery phase, no retainer, no "AI transformation roadmap."

Booking to first hour
1 week
Step 01 Discovery

Deep-dive call

45 minutes on how your business actually runs. Who does what, what repeats, what you dread, and where the week disappears.

45 min single sitting
Step 02 Analysis

AI analysis

We map every repeatable task in your operation against the current AI tool landscape — the same stack we run our own companies on.

Human-verified not LLM alone
Step 03 Prescription

Your prescription

A written report: the exact tools to install, what each costs, the order to roll them out — and what not to waste money on.

Step 04 Rollout

4-day quick start

A 30-minute review call plus a first-week plan, so your top prescription is live and creating capacity within 4 days.

The value ladder

Hours are the mechanism. Capacity is the product.

A typical audit finds 8 hours per person, per week. We only need to prove 5.

Guaranteed floor
5 hrs / wk
Step 01 · Guaranteed
Hours
5hrs / week / person

A typical audit finds 8 hrs/week per person leaking into proposals, reporting, follow-up, and retyping. We guarantee at least 5.

Step 02
Capacity
+1client / PM / week

8 hrs/week is a full working day back. That's one more account per PM, one more monthly close per accountant — same team, same payroll.

Step 03
Revenue
$36kper PM / year

One extra client per PM at a $3k retainer is $36k a year, per PM — for a $999 audit.

Step 04
Growth w/o payroll
1.5%of a $65k+ junior hire

The alternative is a junior ops hire: $65k+ a year and a quarter to ramp. The audit costs about 1.5% of that and lands in a week.

The guarantee lives at step one on purpose: hours are the part we can prove on paper before you spend another dollar.

The risk sits on our side of the table.

Certificate
G-001

If we can't find at least 5 hours per week of recoverable time in your business, you pay nothing — full refund, and you keep the report.

No fine print, no store credit, no "reasonable effort" clause. If the audit doesn't pay for itself on paper before you've implemented a single tool, it's free.

  • 5 hrs/week per person — the measurable floor
  • Full refund if we miss it, no argument
  • You keep the written prescription either way

Your prescription is written by someone who takes it themselves.

I'm not a consultant who discovered ChatGPT last quarter. I've built six B2B SaaS companies — LeadCart, ZenVerifier, ColdRelay, NuMail, InboxSlash, OutboundPass — and AI does real work in all of them, every day: support drafts, outbound, reporting, QA.

That's the job I do for you in the audit. I look at how your business actually runs, find the hours leaking out through proposals, follow-ups, and reporting, and tell you exactly which off-the-shelf tools to install, in what order — and what to skip.

The tools already exist. You don't need a data scientist. You need a doctor who's seen your symptoms before and writes the prescription. If I can't find you five hours a week, you don't pay.

FAQ

Questions, answered straight.

Questions
9
Q.01What exactly do I get for $999?+
A 45-minute deep-dive call, an AI-assisted analysis of your workflows, a written prescription report (the exact tools, their costs, and the rollout order), a capacity ROI model in your numbers, a 30-minute review call, and a 4-day quick-start plan. If we find under 5 hours a week of recoverable time, you get a full refund and keep the report.
Q.02Do you build custom AI or sell software?+
Neither. Think of it like a doctor writing prescriptions — the medicine already exists, and our job is knowing which one fits your symptoms. We prescribe off-the-shelf tools, we don't take affiliate commissions, and we have no software of our own to push.
Q.03You sell capacity — so why is the guarantee in hours?+
Because hours are the thing we can prove on paper before you spend another dollar. Capacity and revenue depend on what you do with the hours; the 5-hour floor is the measurable proxy that makes the promise safe to guarantee — and safe for you to hold us to.
Q.04What if you can't find 5 hours a week?+
Then the audit is free. Full refund, and you keep the report. It hasn't happened yet — most small businesses are leaking well past 10 hours per person — but the risk is ours, not yours.
Q.05We already use ChatGPT. Is this still worth it?+
Almost every client already uses ChatGPT — as a chat window. The hours aren't in better prompting; they're in wiring AI into your actual workflows: proposals, reporting, follow-up, intake. That's what the prescription covers, and it's usually 90% tools you've never evaluated.
Q.06Do I need technical people on my team?+
No. Every prescription is chosen for the team you actually have. If a tool needs an engineer to babysit it, it doesn't make the report.
Q.07How is this different from hiring an AI consultant?+
Consultants bill hours to explore. We sell a fixed outcome at a fixed price with a guarantee: 5+ recoverable hours a week per person identified, or you pay nothing. The whole engagement is under two weeks, not two quarters — and it costs about 1.5% of the junior hire it replaces.
Q.08How fast do I actually see time back?+
The quick-start plan is designed to get your first prescription live within 4 days of the review call. Most clients feel the first recovered hours in week one.
Q.09What happens after the audit?+
Whatever you want. Most clients implement the report themselves — it's written so you can. If you'd rather hand it off, we offer done-for-you implementation and a capped ongoing concierge; you'll get those details after your review call, and your $999 is credited in full toward implementation within 30 days.
