What this retainer does
Most AI installs slowly degrade once the launch team walks away. APIs change, prompts get stale, integrations break in silence, and no one notices until a customer or a number on a dashboard does. AI Essentials is the lightweight retainer that prevents that. We watch your systems, send you a monthly report you can actually read, handle the small change requests that always come up, and stay one quarterly call ahead of any drift.
What you get
Outcomes you can measure
- ✓Your installed AI keeps working — no silent breakage between launches
- ✓A monthly report that shows what's running, what's healthy, and what changed
- ✓Small adjustments handled without you having to scope another project
- ✓A standing technical relationship so help is always one email away
Included every month
Full deliverables
System health check and uptime monitoring
Continuous monitoring of your AI workflows, integrations, and API endpoints. We catch failures before your team or customers do.
Monthly performance report
A short, plain-language monthly report covering uptime, volume, key metrics, and any anomalies — delivered by email on the first business day of the month.
Up to 2 minor change requests
Small tweaks each month — prompt updates, copy changes, additional triggers, minor workflow adjustments. No separate scoping required.
Email support (48-hour response)
Direct email line to your AI engineer for questions, bug reports, or quick advice. Acknowledged within one business day, resolved within two.
Quarterly strategy check-in call
A 30-minute call every quarter to review what's working, what isn't, and what to invest in next. Your AI roadmap stays current.
Tier
Good — AI Essentials
Entry-level retainer for businesses that need a safety net — not a full optimization program.
Best for
Who this is built for
Businesses with one or two AI systems already running who want a low-overhead safety net — not a full optimization program — to keep them healthy.

Common questions
Is the subscription month-to-month?
+
Yes. Monthly subscription, cancel any time. No long-term contract.
What counts as a 'minor change request'?
+
Anything that takes us under 60 minutes — prompt tweaks, copy updates, new triggers, small workflow adjustments, integration touch-ups. Bigger work gets scoped as a separate project or covered under a higher tier.
What happens if I need more than 2 changes in a month?
+
We'll flag it and quote the overflow at our standard rate, or recommend stepping up to AI Growth where 5 monthly changes are included.
