Clear Pricing for Real Work
One platform, two ways to engage. Run the Diagnostic yourself, or add our team — assessments and reports land in the same dashboard.
Self Service
You run it. The Diagnostic analyzes your marketing infrastructure in minutes. Plans add volume and platform features; one-off scans and reports are ordered from the same dashboard.
Full Service
We do the work. Strategy, audits, builds, and ongoing management delivered by a human team. Start with a conversation.
Platform Plans
The Diagnostic is free to try — no credit card required. Paid plans come in two tracks. Agency plans are for the clients you look after: each client gets its own workspace, and they can read the work you deliver. Business plans are for your own brands. Both are priced by Diagnostic volume.

Why several workspaces?
Most businesses have more to audit than one website: a second brand, a regional or country site, a product microsite. On Enterprise, each workspace keeps its own Diagnostics and history, so progress on one never muddies another.

Scans & Reports
Self-serve, one-off orders from your dashboard — no subscription required. The Citation Scan also has an optional monthly Watch. Start each from a completed Diagnostic and the results land beside your infrastructure findings for the same domain. The Citation Scan can also run on a domain you type.
Citation Scan

Automated · delivered in about five minutes
A one-off measurement of how six AI answer engines cite your category. Ten pinned questions × six engines = 60 answer cells, delivered in your dashboard.

- Citation grid — every question × engine cell with every domain it cited
- Presence-share ranking of every domain the engines cited, ranked against you
- Coverage disclosure with every scan — which engines answered, which cells were empty
- Observed citations only — no estimates, forecasts or volume weighting
- Re-scan the same domain, category and country for $19 USD (~CAD $25 / ~AUD $30), and the two scans compare
- Watch it monthly: one scan of the same domain, category and country every month for $19 USD, cancel anytime.
Account required · starting from a free Diagnostic names its competitors
Crawlability Scan

Reads your sitemap, then goes and looks. Every URL you approve is checked for declared crawler access, and a sample of pages is fetched as the AI crawlers themselves to compare what they receive with what a browser gets.

- Declared vs. observed — sampled pages fetched under seven AI crawler identities plus a browser control

- Re-scan the same pages within 90 days of the first scan’s delivery, from $29 USD (~CAD $40 / ~AUD $45), and the latest run is compared with the one before it: ≤ 50 URLs $29 · ≤ 200 URLs $49 · ≤ 1,000 URLs $79

How It Works
Hourly work
Assist work is billed hourly with transparent time tracking. No surprises — you see exactly what we spent time on and why. Minimum engagement is typically 5 hours.
Project-based work
Architect engagements are scoped and quoted up front. You know the cost before we start. Scope changes are discussed and approved, never billed silently.
The free Diagnostic
The Diagnostic is always free — no credit card required. The free report includes your 10-pillar perception vs. reality scores, your most critical blind spot in full detail, executive summary, and verdict cards. Upgrading unlocks the complete analysis — all blind spots, market intelligence, budget breakdown, and more — instantly, with no re-scan needed.
Domain translation
Every full service stream includes domain translation at no extra cost. We don't charge more to explain what we're doing. That's built into how we work — it's not an upsell, it's the baseline.
Common Questions
What happens after I complete the free Diagnostic?
Your report is generated immediately — the system runs the full analysis regardless of your plan. The free report shows your 10-pillar scores, your most critical blind spot in full detail, an executive summary, and verdict cards. Starter unlocks the complete picture: every blind spot, all priority optimizations, strengths to hone, market intelligence with competitor profiles, full budget breakdown, and PDF export. Pro adds the investment roadmap, action items to track suggested improvements, integrations, trend analysis with sharing and PDF export, and team access through a team account. Enterprise adds the interactive Journey canvas, full action item management, scheduled Diagnostics and a workspace for each of your brands. Agency plans carry everything in Enterprise, organized around your clients. Upgrading reveals everything instantly — no re-scan needed. There's no automatic follow-up. The next move is yours.
How is scoped pricing determined for Audit and Architect engagements?
For Strategic Assessments and Architect engagements, we scope the work before quoting it. That means a brief conversation about your business, what the Diagnostic found, and what you're trying to achieve — followed by a written scope and a fixed price. You know exactly what you're committing to before any work begins. Scope changes are discussed and approved, never billed silently.
Do I need to complete an Audit before moving to Architect?
Not always — but usually. The Diagnostic exists partly because we don't want to quote an Architect engagement without understanding your current infrastructure. It's how we write a good spec. If you already have a thorough picture of your current state, we can discuss starting at Blueprint. But the Audit exists to surface the things that change the scope.
What does 'scoped' or 'custom' pricing actually mean — can you give a rough range?
The Strategic Assessment is $300 USD flat fee. The Competitive Report is $350 USD per competitor — you pick the ones that matter most. An assessment with two competitor deep-dives is $850 USD as a bundle — ask us and we will set it up. Architect engagements vary more widely — a Blueprint alone is a different scope to a Build followed by a Run & Optimise retainer. We don't publish fixed Architect ranges because the Diagnostic genuinely changes the answer. Reach out or run the Diagnostic and we can talk specifics.
Do you work with businesses outside Australia and Canada?
Yes. The work is remote by default. We have direct experience operating across Australian, Singaporean, and UK markets, and have worked with compliance environments including ASIC and GDPR. Geography is not a constraint.
Is domain translation really included at no extra cost?
Yes — it's not a service add-on, it's how we work. Every deliverable comes with an explanation of the choices made and the reasoning behind them. The level of translation scales with the stream: Light in Assist (explaining the work we did), Medium in Audit (explaining what the findings mean for your business), Deep in Architect (ensuring you understand the system well enough to make your own decisions going forward).
What industries do you work with?
Any business with a digital marketing infrastructure worth auditing. That said, we have deep experience in regulated financial services (CFD and derivatives trading, ASIC compliance, GDPR) and in agency environments. If your business operates in a compliance-sensitive context — financial services, legal, healthcare — we're familiar with the constraints.
What if our project or brand hasn't launched yet?
No Diagnostic needed. If there's no existing infrastructure to audit, we go straight to a Blueprint Discovery session — a structured conversation that covers the same ground as the Diagnostic (intent, constraints, tech decisions, success criteria) but starts from a blank slate. This is the entry point for greenfield clients and typically scopes directly into an Architect engagement. Reach out to discuss.
Is the Diagnostic walkthrough session included in the free Diagnostic?
No. The automated analysis is always free — the free report shows scores, your top blind spot, executive summary, and verdicts. Starter adds the complete findings: every blind spot, market intelligence, budget analysis, and PDF download. Pro goes further with the investment roadmap and team sharing. Reviewing any version with us is a separate paid step — the Strategic Assessment ($300 USD, ~3hr engagement: pre-research, 1hr live session, follow-up) — and it's the entry point to the Audit stream.
What are the 3-month and annual commitment options?
Both commitment options are pre-paid for the full term and include a 30-minute Course Correction after your first month — a one-on-one check-in to make sure you're getting full value. The 3-month option is billed at the standard monthly rate. Annual saves 15% on Pro, 10% on Enterprise, Consultant and Studio, and 5% on Firm; Starter is monthly or 3-month only. Month-to-month billing is always available on every plan.
What happens when I use all my Diagnostics?
On Pro, Enterprise and every Agency plan, an owner or admin of a team account can run more for $49 USD each. Each one is confirmed before it runs and is paid from that account's Credit Wallet (top up under Settings → Plan & Usage). Other members are asked to contact an owner or admin. A workspace's own Diagnostic ceiling is raised, never charged. On Starter, upgrading to Pro is the way to run more.
Business or Agency: which plans are for me?
If you're checking your own business or brands, the Business plans. If you deliver marketing work to clients (as an agency, consultant or fractional lead), the Agency plans: each client gets its own workspace and can read what you deliver. The Agency plans have the same features as each other; they differ in how many Diagnostics, Outreach Rehearsal sessions, and client workspaces you get.
Can my clients have their own plan?
Yes. A client can add a Business plan to the workspace you set up for them and run Diagnostics on it themselves. Diagnostics they start use their plan; Diagnostics you start still use yours. Your delivered work stays in the same workspace.
What is Outreach Rehearsal?
A place to practise a cold outreach email before you send it. You write to a simulated prospect grounded in the recipient company's public signals, get a critique scored against a published rubric, see how the message lands in character (including no reply at all), and work through the pre-send checks the recipient's country asks for (Canada and the US today). It never sends anything. A session is one email you work on, however many drafts that takes.
Not sure which stream fits?
Start with the free Diagnostic. It'll tell you more about your marketing in five to ten minutes than most paid consultations. From there, we can talk about what makes sense — no pressure, no pitch.
