Every price we charge, on one page.
Four programs, one ladder. Start free, and only pay when you know what you're buying. We publish setup costs, monthly costs, and the costs that aren't ours, because the surprises are what kill AI projects, not the prices.
Start free
Discovery, the scored assessment, and both courses cost nothing.
No long-term contract
Month-to-month, at will, on every program.
Run costs named
Server, mailboxes and tools are yours. We tell you before you sign.
We'll decline
If we think it will fail, we say so and don't take the work.
Nothing here costs anything.
Most companies should start here and stop, at least for a while. You get a scored picture of where you stand and an honest read on whether AI is worth your money yet. If it isn't, we'd rather tell you now.
Discovery Call
A low-key conversation. We get to know the business, talk through what's actually slowing you down, and share our initial findings on the call.
- No pitch, no deck
- Initial findings shared live
- An honest view on going further
- Recommended next step
AI Interview & Readiness Assessment
A scored online assessment, then an interview we run together. EquipmentFX and Particula Tech produce the report, nothing further is required from you. Reviewed with you on a call before it's delivered.
- 40-point readiness score, 8 dimensions
- 12-point cost guardrail review
- Written recommendation per gap
- One priority bottleneck scoped
- 90-day action roadmap
Two Executive Courses
Tool-agnostic training for leaders without a developer on staff. We teach the discipline, not a platform, so it holds up regardless of which vendor you eventually choose.
- AI Without Disruption, what to automate, what to leave alone
- How to Structure Data for AI, the foundation AI actually needs
- No technical prerequisites
- Most attendees leave with one workflow to fix next week
Senior AI leadership, without the hire.
A full-time Chief AI Officer runs $250,000 to $400,000 a year before benefits, and is hard to find with equipment-industry depth. This is the same judgment, retained, at the level you need it.
FAIO Concierge

- Embedded Fractional AI Officer
- Leadership meeting participation
- 12–24 month AI strategy

Boundary: advisory covers leadership and roadmap management. Development, integrations, agent builds and training programs are scoped separately, see programs 3 and 4.
The AI sales development unit.
An outbound engine that researches prospects, verifies contacts, writes in your voice, sends, reads every reply and books meetings, running on infrastructure you own. Build once, then a single monthly service fee is your only ongoing cost.
One-time build. Then service only.
The technical setup is the only fixed cost. The commercial assessment is strongly recommended, and the 90 days of project management are optional if you have someone who can carry it, though the work doesn't disappear, and it takes a person with equipment-industry knowledge who uses AI daily.

What's never included, and what we won't do.
Cost surprises are the number one reason AI pilots get cancelled after ninety days. So here is everything that isn't in the price above, stated before you sign rather than discovered in month two.
Run costs are yours
Server, mailboxes, enrichment data and sending tools are billed at cost or rolled into your retainer. They're modest but ongoing, and we name the numbers during scoping.
Your data stays yours
Systems run on infrastructure you control, using your own accounts and API keys. Code, models and documentation transfer to you. We keep nothing of your data or your domain logic.
No long-term contract
Every program is month-to-month and at will. If you want to stop, you stop. We'd rather earn the next month than hold you to a year.
A human stays in the loop
On appointment setting and anywhere else judgment matters, a person owns the decision. These systems multiply your team; they don't replace anyone.
We test what we recommend
Nothing gets promoted to a client that we haven't run ourselves. We build on technology already proven at scale, not on whatever launched last quarter.
We'll tell you no
Our assessment ends in a build-or-skip verdict, and sometimes it's skip. Turning down work we could have billed is cheaper for everyone than a program that quietly dies in month four.
Before you ask us.
Which program do I actually need?
If you want one sales function working, that's ELOS (section 3). If you want the whole business operating differently, that's an AI-as-a-Service program (section 4). If you want senior judgment on tap without a build, that's advisory (section 2). If you don't know, take the free assessment and we'll tell you.
Do I have to start free?
No, but almost everyone should. The assessment costs nothing and regularly changes what people buy, sometimes to something smaller, sometimes to nothing yet.
Why is setup separate from the monthly fee?
Because building the system and running it are different work. Bundling them into a monthly price hides how much you're paying for the build and locks you into a longer term to amortize it. We'd rather show both numbers.
What if it doesn't work?
We deploy your first workflow and prove it on your real data before an ongoing retainer begins. If a delivered outcome doesn't work as planned, we keep working past the original agreement or milestones at no additional charge until it does.
Do I need technical staff?
No. We handle infrastructure, configuration and ongoing management. If you can use email, you can use these systems. Where an internal owner is required, we say so up front rather than discovering it at handoff.
Can I move between programs?
Yes. Most companies start free, add advisory or ELOS, and move up only when the current level has earned it. Nothing here requires committing to the top of the ladder on day one.
Not sure which one fits?
Book a discovery call. Twenty minutes, no pitch, and you'll leave knowing which of these is right, including the possibility that none of them are yet.
