The work
One method. Three depths.
Duration
A ladder, not one SKU — by the hour, a fixed-scope install, or a team rollout.
Who it fits
Builders, operators, founders, teams who want an AI brain they own.
Diagnose the work, build the brain, hand you the keys — sized to whoever owns it.
Three ways in
Learn it. Run it. Have it installed.

We build the brain from your real work and hand you the keys. Yours to keep.
- Personal Brain — $1,497
- Personal Brain Plus — $4,997
- Company Install — from $15,000 + retainer
Diagnose the work. Build the brain. Hand you the keys.
One method, three moves. The same by the hour or across a team.
A read across what you’ve built in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini — where the knowledge lives, where it leaks, what fits your role.
Your real work becomes a searchable brain on your own branded subdomain. Gated to you, queryable over MCP.
You keep the source files, the schema, the deployment config, the subdomain. When tools change or people leave, what it knows doesn’t walk out the door.
“The method is public — eighteen stages, taught in the Lab. What you pay for isn’t the secret. It’s the hands that run it on your real operation.”
One architecture. Sized to whoever owns it.
Every offer here builds the same brain. What changes up the ladder is depth and who owns the result — never the architecture.
- You pick the depth.Productized at the unit, so you don’t commit five figures to find out whether it fits. Start where the job sits; the fee credits forward.
The ladder
Five ways in.
Brain Lifeline — $150/hr
Pay-per-call advisory. A question gets a considered reply; agent code gets a scoped review. No project work — thinking together.
Working Intelligence Audit — $497–$997
A paid diagnostic across what you’ve built in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. You leave with a portable file you own and a written read on what fits your role.
Personal Brain — $1,497
Hand us your files; we turn them into a brain on a branded subdomain, yours to query from any AI tool. One to two weeks.
Personal Brain Plus — $4,997
Everything in Personal Brain, plus deep elicitation of your tacit expertise, custom retrieval, three to five skills, and four weeks of architectural attention.
Company Install — from $15,000 + retainer
A brain for every employee that’s theirs to keep, plus a shared Company Brain holding the institutional knowledge — with the rules and access you’d expect.
Learn it in the Lab — free → $1,197
Rather run the method yourself? The whole eighteen-stage method is taught as five courses in the Lab — Course 01 free, the full Track $1,197.
How the method holds
Public method. Real gates.
The method is public. Eighteen stages — Diagnose, Prescribe, Architect — taught in the Lab as five courses and a 173-field workbook. Run it yourself, or have us run it on your real operation.
And it has gates. READ, WRITE, ACT. Human gates on anything that moves money or messages. Nothing acts on its own without keys you handed it. The install bolts onto the actual job, not around it.
The math
Sub-year payback
A Personal Brain is ~20 hours of skilled work plus productized infrastructure. For a knowledge worker saving 5–10 hrs/week, it pays itself back inside a year.
Founding rate · while it holds
Build the brain before the vendors do.
Within a year, a big vendor ships an assistant that remembers you continuously. When it lands, work already organized in your own brain gets more valuable, not less. The founding rate holds until the first cohort of installs is complete, or one of those products ships — whichever comes first.
Who this is for
Named by role.
- The founder or solo operatorYou’re the brain of the business. Your corpus is your edge. Make it portable and queryable — Brain Lifeline to drop in, Personal Brain to own it.
- The senior knowledge workerConsultant, analyst, principal IC. Your thinking is scattered across hundreds of documents. Start with the Audit, then install.
- The agency principal or builderYears of methodologies and client patterns, scattered across tools. The install consolidates them into one brain you own — or take the method in the Lab.
- The team or department headInstalling AI org-wide. The Company Install gives every employee their own portable brain plus a shared Company Brain, with governance on who can query what.

Common questions
Asked, answered.
Which offer do I start with?
Not sure yet? The Working Intelligence Audit ($497). Know you want one? Go straight to Personal Brain ($1,497). Just a second opinion? Brain Lifeline, $150/hr, no commitment. A team? The Company Install. The Diagnostic Call sorts it in 30 minutes.
What’s the same across every tier?
The architecture. Every install builds a private, searchable brain from your real work, deployed to a branded subdomain gated by Cloudflare Access, exposing an MCP endpoint any modern AI tool can query. What changes up the ladder is the depth of elicitation, the custom retrieval shaping, and the number of role-tuned skills.
Do the fees stack as I climb?
They credit forward. The Audit fee credits against an Install if you upgrade within 90 days; a Personal Brain fee credits in full toward Personal Brain Plus. No penalty for starting small.
What happens to the brain if I stop working with you?
You keep it. You own the source files, the schema, the deployment config, and the subdomain. Rehost it, hand it to another developer, or let it run as-is. The retainer is optional — for ongoing tuning, never a requirement to keep what you bought.
Can I just learn the method instead of buying an install?
Yes. The entire eighteen-stage method is taught in the Lab — five courses, one workbook. Course 01 is free; the full Install Track is $1,197. The method we sell is the method we teach. The install is that method run on your real operation, our hands in the room.
How technical do I need to be?
Not at all. The technical work happens on our side. You provide files, give feedback on the shape, and use the brain through tools you already know. Want the deployment config? It’s yours and we’ll walk you through it — optional.

Onboarding is a course you keep. Worksheets land where we read them before every call. When we’re done you hold the workbook, the certificate, and the method — not a slide deck about it.

The Diagnostic Call commits to nothing. We’ll figure out which depth fits the work in front of you — or whether the Lab is the right move, or whether we should be talking about something else entirely.
