AI Workflow Sprint
Fixed scope · 4 weeks · from AU $6,900 ex GST
One workflow built in your tools with the people who use it: baseline in week 1, build and test in weeks 2 and 3, launch and a measured result in week 4.
No lock-in · monthly · from AU $1,800/mo ex GST - Someone whose job it is to keep AI governed and moving.
You do not need a head of AI. You need a few senior hours a month that review the register, scope the next workflow, keep the policy current as the rules change, and answer staff questions. That is this.
Monthly · from AU $1,800 ex GST · Founder-led by Manish Kumar · No lock-in
Where this sits in the ladder
- Step 1: Check
- Step 2: Discover
- Step 3: Guard
- Step 4: Ship
- Step 5: Sustain (current)
Who it is for - Right for you if this sounds familiar.
A fit when
- Firms with one or two AI workflows live and no one accountable for them after the build.
- Businesses that need the policy and register kept current through the 10 December 2026 Privacy Act changes and whatever follows.
- Leaders who want a quarterly answer to "what should we do next with AI" that is not a vendor pitch.
Not the right step when
- Firms wanting a help desk. Office hours are for judgement calls, not password resets.
- Banking hours past the month. Rollover is same-month only, by design.
What you get - Deliverables, not a transformation.

Policy and rule updates

Staff office hours
A standing slot each month where anyone can ask "can I use AI for this". Answers logged to the register.

Not sure this is the right step?
Nine questions, three minutes, nothing leaves your browser. The scorecard shows which of the five steps you are on and which service fits.
Questions we get asked - Straight answers.
- Can hours roll over?
- Within the same calendar month only. Unused hours are not banked, which keeps the retainer honest on both sides.
- Is there a minimum term?
- No. Month to month, cancel with 30 days notice, pause up to 60 days a year at no charge.
- Who does the work?
- Manish Kumar. Not an outsourced contractor, not a junior. The person who scoped your first build keeps the register.
Evidence: Boutique AI and digital retainers in Australia run AU $995 to AU $2,000 a month for small firms (Appendix 1.5, September 2026).
