Why This Exists

You paid for a setup. The system works. For now.

Then three weeks in, ChatGPT changes how their API responds to tokens. Your prompt starts returning garbage. You don’t know why. It takes you four hours on the phone with ChatGPT support to find out.

Or: Meta updates Instagram’s API. Your DM triage stops working. You don’t notice for three days. By then, 40 DMs have gone unanswered. Some were hot leads.

Or: you added a new tool to your stack. You want it integrated with the automations you already have. You know it can probably be done. You don’t know how.

That’s what Retainer is for. A human who owns the health of your AI stack so you don’t have to think about it.

What You Get

Basic Care

$99/month

For: Small businesses with 1–3 AI workflows running. Want someone to notice when things break.

  • Monthly health check on every workflow
  • One new automation built and handed off per month
  • Unlimited bug fixes (we monitor, you don’t)
  • Monthly written performance report — what’s running, what failed, what we fixed
  • Email support (48h reply)
  • Cancel anytime, no lock-in

The Math

A single broken workflow — say, your lead responder goes down for 48 hours — can cost a small business 5–10 real leads. Even if just 1 of those would’ve become a $500–$5,000 customer, the retainer pays for itself by preventing ONE outage per year.

Growth tier: you also get 24 new workflows per year. Each would cost $250–$500 as a one-off. That’s $6,000–$12,000 of build value for $2,388/year — plus the SEO article and social content queue every month.

Who This Is For

  • Anyone who bought the AI Automation Setup Service (Tier 1, 2, or 3)
  • Anyone who bought an Industry Template Pack and wants ongoing help
  • Any small business owner who has AI workflows they built themselves and wants a pro to maintain them

Who This Is NOT For

  • Anyone who hasn’t set up AI workflows yet — buy the Setup Service or a Template Pack first
  • Enterprise needs with 24/7 SLAs — we’re not a managed service provider
  • Anyone looking for paid ads management, content writing, or general marketing — we stay in our lane

Monthly. No long-term contracts. Cancel anytime before your next billing date to avoid future charges. Subscription fees are non-refundable per our Terms of Service.
