Most of our Gladstone engagements start the same way: a 20-minute call where the owner describes a workflow we've heard before in shape but never in detail. AI agents is then designed against the detail, not the shape.
For Gladstone operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.

FAQ
What's a typical engagement length for Gladstone businesses?
Six to twelve weeks for the build, then a short managed-services month while the system goes from "shipped" to "owned by your team". After that you keep us on retainer if you want, or take it from there yourself.
Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?
Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call - fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.
What's the realistic outcome for Gladstone businesses?
Replaces 15+ hours of weekly back-office work per agent deployed. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. The default AI agents stack we reach for is Claude Agent SDK, OpenAI Agents, LangGraph, n8n, MCP, but we'll bend it around whatever you already run - Xero, HubSpot, Shopify, Cin7, your own in-house apps. The discovery week maps every data source before any build starts.
The honest version of a sales call.
No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
