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.

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).
