The engagement model

Three steps. Sequential, not optional.

Assessment tells us what to build. Deployment builds it. Operate runs it. You can’t skip steps because each one’s output is the next one’s input.

01Assessment4–6 WEEKS
Purpose

A 4-week diagnostic that identifies Decision Latency gaps in the current operation and scopes a deployment plan.

Inputs

Access to platform data (GA4, Meta, Google, CRM). 30 minutes with each of: CMO, CFO, head of performance, head of creative.

Decision point

At the end of Assessment, you either sign the Deployment SOW or you don't. No pressure, no retainer lock-in.

Price

Fixed fee. Disclosed in the Diagnostic intake. Creditable against Deployment if you sign.

What we measure

Four dimensions of decision latency.

Platform spend audit

We reconcile every dollar flowing through your ad platforms against your source-of-truth financial data. We surface the structural discrepancies.

Lead funnel analysis

We map the full lifecycle from impression to closed revenue. Every handoff, every CRM stage, every latency gap gets measured and timestamped.

Reporting cadence review

We audit when your team receives data versus when the event actually occurred. The delta between reality and visibility is your decision latency.

Waste pocket identification

We isolate spend categories where conversion probability has collapsed but budget continues to flow. These are the first frameworks we deploy against.

The process

Four structured weeks.

Week 1

Data intake

We connect to your ad platforms, CRM, and analytics stack. We pull historical spend, lead, and revenue data.

Week 2

Latency mapping

We calculate the exact duration of your Decision Latency across every marketing function and channel.

Week 3

Waste analysis

We identify structural inefficiencies and map which specific Latency Compression frameworks will compress each gap.

Week 4

Deployment scope

We deliver a ranked list of latency gaps and the autonomous systems required to close them.

What you receive

Four deliverables, shipped.

Written diagnostic

Ranked latency gaps. Every gap quantified by hours of latency and estimated revenue impact.

Proposed agent architecture

Specific Latency Compression frameworks mapped to specific gaps with integration requirements.

Projected compression outcomes

Modeled reductions in decision latency and projected efficiency gains.

Scoped deployment proposal

Fixed-price statement of work, ready for executive approval.

Gate 01 — Decision point

Proceed to Deployment, or don't. The Assessment report is yours either way.

02Deployment2–8 WEEKS
Purpose

Integration of autonomous agents into your data stack that compresses the latency gaps identified in the Assessment.

Governance

Weekly review. Staged rollout. No agent writes to a production ad platform without a human-approved first run.

Price

Scoped against the Assessment recommendation. Fixed-price per phase. No time-and-materials.

Integration architecture

Five-stage pipeline, in your environment.

01

Data connectors

Ad platforms, CRM, GA4, BI tools.

02

Signal Bus

Proprietary event normalization layer.

03

Agent fleet

Autonomous rule engines and analysis.

04

Governance layer

Human-in-the-loop approval protocols.

05

Output channels

Slack, email, BI tool, or custom.

What gets deployed

Components, functions, and what they replace.

ComponentFunctionReplaces
Signal BusStandardizes data flow from all source platforms into a unified event stream.Manual ETL pipelines and CSV exports.
Media Triage AgentMonitors creative fatigue and anomalous spend, auto-pauses underperformers.Daily manual platform checks.
Pacing AgentProjects month-end outcomes on day 10 using cohort maturity curves.Week 3–4 manual reallocation meetings.
Reporting AgentGenerates executive briefs with explicit intervention flags.Analyst-compiled weekly decks.
Governance LayerRoutes high-impact decisions for human approval before execution.Undefined escalation chains.
Gate 02 — Operate handoff

Cutover complete. Either you run it in-house with our docs, or we run it for you in Operate.

03Operate12-MONTH RETAINER
Purpose

A fully managed service where our operations bench runs the deployed fleet and maintains precision over time.

On-call

24/7 monitoring. Human-in-the-loop on anything over a defined spend threshold.

Off-ramp

No auto-renew. At month 12 we review and either renew or hand you the keys with documentation.

The operating model

Three layers. Agents generate, humans govern, you receive.

Agent Layer

11 autonomous agents monitor your platforms continuously. They detect anomalies, project outcomes, and draft responses.

  • Media Triage
  • Pacing Intelligence
  • Lead Response
  • Reporting Automation
  • CRM Sanitization

Governance Layer

4 human operators review escalated decisions, authorize budget shifts, and maintain model accuracy.

  • Pre-execution approval gates
  • Anomaly triage and resolution
  • Model calibration cycles
  • Incrementality test design
  • Vendor reconciliation

Output Layer

You receive production-ready intelligence directly. No dashboards, no seats, no additional tooling required.

  • Weekly executive briefs
  • Latency compression metrics
  • Variance decomposition reports
  • Allocation recommendations
  • Incrementality test results
The compounding effect

Precision improves quarter by quarter.

You make the final call. We run everything else.

When measurement methods disagree on how to reallocate spend, we design incrementality experiments to resolve the divergence. We calculate whether each test justifies its own cost. You authorize the execution.
