Pricing

Fixed scope. Fixed price. Agreed before we start.

One price, set before we start — and it doesn’t move once we’ve agreed it. No hourly billing, ever. Start with an Audit from $500, credited in full against your build.

We also won’t automate something that isn’t worth automating. If it’s not worth it yet, we’ll just tell you.

01 · 1–2 weeks

Automation Audit

From $500

fixed fee

Who this is for: Something is costing you time or leads, but you are not sure what to fix first.

We map one workflow end to end and hand you the diagram, what the leak is costing, and a fixed quote to fix it. Credited in full against your build.

  • We talk to the people doing the work, not just the owner — that is where the real problems show up
  • A plain map of what happens today, and where it leaks time or money
  • A number on what that leak is actually costing you each month
  • One clear recommendation with a fixed quote — or an honest “not worth it yet”

02 · 3–5 weeks typical

First System

Quoted after the Audit

fixed scope

Who this is for: You know what is costing you most, and want it built properly rather than duct-taped.

One workflow, built, documented and handed over. The price is fixed in writing after the Audit and does not move while we build.

  • Built in your accounts, under your name — yours, with no lock-in
  • A senior engineer on your build, not whoever was free that week
  • Tested on real, messy scenarios before you ever see it
  • Once live it retries on its own, and we are alerted before your customer notices
  • Weekly progress you can actually see, not silence until a big reveal
  • One success metric agreed upfront, so there is no argument later about whether it worked
  • A direct Slack line to us, plus 90 days of fixes after handover

03 · Ongoing

Operations Partner

From $1,500

per month

Who this is for: You have more than one thing running, and do not want to be the one who finds out something broke.

A standing engagement for teams automating more than one thing. We keep building, keep it running, and stay accountable for uptime.

  • One named engineer who knows your systems — not someone new every time
  • If something breaks, we catch and fix it before you or your customer do
  • New automations built and tested the same careful way, ranked by what matters to you
  • A direct Slack line, plus a short monthly note on what ran, what broke, what it saved
  • Leave anytime with 30 days notice — no contracts

How we keep it fair

The number doesn’t move.

Scope is fixed in writing

Agreed after the Audit, before any building. Overruns are ours to absorb.

The Audit is credited

If you go ahead with the build, the Audit fee comes off the project fee in full.

You own everything

Code, accounts and documentation in your name from day one. No lock-in.

We’ll talk you out of it

If a workflow isn’t worth automating yet, we say so before you spend.

A senior engineer, start to finish

The person who scopes your build writes the code. No hand-off to a junior, and no account manager in between.

90 days of maintenance

Included after handover. Breakages and API changes are ours, at no extra cost.

  • Over 10 workflows working in sync.

    I worked with Niraj on an n8n project that comprised of over 10 workflows working in sync. He improved the efficiency, added new features with ease and deployed custom code where necessary — showing that he’s more than just a no/low-code developer which is very valuable in this day and age. I would not hesitate to recommend him if you’re looking for professional execution and strong communication!
  • A solid foundation for my automation agency.

    Hired Niraj to build out a website for me at automatedbureaucracy.com and he delivered a great full stack application that provides a solid foundation for my automation agency.

  • One of the most versatile professionals I have come across.

    One of the most versatile professionals I have come across. His eagerness to learn new things is truly inspiring — whether it’s picking up a new skill, exploring a different approach, or taking on a challenge outside his comfort zone. His incredible ability to take even the harshest criticism in stride sets him apart even more.

FAQ

Questions about cost

Everything here is something we commit to in writing before a build starts.

Ask us directly

How much does workflow automation cost?

An Automation Audit starts at $500 and is credited in full against your build. The build itself is quoted after the Audit, because a single workflow can be a few days of work or several weeks — and a number given before anyone has looked at your process is a guess. Ongoing support starts at $1,500 per month.

Why isn’t there a price list for the build?

Because every business is a different mess to untangle, and a generic number would be more misleading than useful. What we promise instead is a fixed price, agreed in writing before we start, that does not move afterwards. The Audit is deliberately cheap and priced openly so you can get a real number without committing to a build.

Is the Audit fee wasted if we go ahead with the build?

No. The Audit fee is credited in full against your build, so going ahead costs you nothing extra for the scoping. The first conversation before the Audit is free, and if we decide your workflow is not worth automating yet we will tell you and say why — talking a company out of a build we could have sold is cheaper for us than delivering something that quietly fails to earn its cost.

What if the work turns out bigger than expected?

The agreed price does not move. Scope is fixed in writing after the Audit, so overruns against that scope are ours to absorb, not yours to pay for. If the work turns out materially bigger than scoped, we stop, tell you, and re-quote before continuing — you are never billed for a surprise.

What happens after the 90 days of maintenance?

Every build includes 90 days of fixes after handover at no extra cost: if something we built breaks, or an API you depend on changes underneath it, we fix it. After that you can take it in-house — you own the code and the runbooks — or move to an Operations Partner engagement from $1,500 a month. Either way the system is yours.

Do we get locked into your tools or accounts?

No. Code, credentials, repositories and infrastructure are in your name from the first day, and handover includes runbooks and diagrams so another engineer could pick the system up without us. There is no contract on the ongoing retainer either — you can leave with 30 days notice. If we ever part ways, you keep a working system.

How do we talk to you day to day?

A shared Slack or WhatsApp channel, directly with the engineer building your system. No ticket queue and no account manager relaying messages, because the person who scoped the work is the person writing the code.

Start with one workflow.

The first conversation is free and ends with an honest answer.
