Our method · AI-assisted, architect-approved

Read. Score. Gate. Sign.

The four steps behind every assessment, health check and sprint we deliver. AI does the first pass. An architect checks the work and signs the answer.

  • The same four steps on every fixed-fee offer
  • Scoring published
  • Every readout signed

Four steps, every time

Each step has one job, and each one leaves a record you can check.

  1. Read

    Start from what you already have.

    Contracts and amendments, invoices, ticket exports, provider reports and system data. AI does the first pass, pulling out terms, dates, counts and amounts. An architect checks each finding against its source, and anything that can’t be traced back to a document stays out of the readout.

    You getFacts with their sources. Every finding opens to the contract term, invoice line, record or workshop behind it.

  2. Score

    Rank the options in the open.

    You approve the criteria and weights before we score. Every score has a written reason, and where it helps, you can move the weights in the readout and watch what changes. AI use cases are scored on our published model.

    You getA ranking you can check, and what would flip it.

  3. Gate

    Agree the pass mark before anyone spends.

    Before a pilot, a program or a negotiation starts, we agree the numbers and dates that decide it: the pilot’s pass mark, the decision date, the fallback if something slips. Nobody moves the goalposts later.

    You getA go or no-go you can call on the day, instead of arguing about it.

  4. Sign

    Put a name on the answer.

    On client readouts, Lai Long, founder and principal architect, reviews and approves every finding. The readout carries that sign-off and its date, and it opens with the answer.

    You getOne answer with a name behind it, as an interactive readout, a PDF record and a slide deck.

AI-assisted, architect-approved

AI makes the reading fast. People make every call.

What AI does

  • Reads the documents you share and pulls out terms, dates, counts and amounts
  • Drafts the calculations, the findings and a first version of the readout
  • Checks totals and cross-references, so our time goes to judgment

What it never does

  • Decides what we recommend
  • Contacts your providers, or anyone else
  • Approves, signs or sends anything
  • Runs outside an environment you approve, or trains on your documents

Who approves. An architect checks every finding against its source. On client readouts, Lai Long reviews and approves every finding.

Your call. Prefer we didn’t use AI on some documents? Say so at kickoff. We’ll do that part by hand and agree any change to the timeline first.

Our AI rules, in Trust and procurement

How it runs in each fixed-fee offer

The same four steps, applied to the decision in front of you. Sign works the same way in all three.
