Most of our Lismore 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 fraud detection is then designed against the detail, not the shape.
For Lismore operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.

The Lismore context, plainly.
- Lismore is the Northern Rivers service centre, rebuilding through a construction and insurance workload that has not let up since the floods.
- Agriculture, education through Southern Cross University, health, and a construction and remediation sector still working through flood recovery. Documentation, claims and scheduling loads here are heavier than anywhere comparable.

How we build AI fraud detection for a Lismore team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Lismore business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI fraud + anomaly.

FAQ
How long does AI fraud detection take to ship for Lismore businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks - narrow scope, real Lismore businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
How do you price AI fraud detection engagements?
Fixed-scope pilots first, then either project pricing or a small monthly retainer for the ongoing work. No long lock-ins, no 18-month black-box deals. Most Lismore businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Recovers 3-5x its cost in caught fraud within 6 months.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI fraud detection into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too - we don't operate it from ours.
The honest version of a sales call.
No deck. No discovery doc. Just whether this is worth building and what it would cost.
