Where it starts

Each one has a cost, in salary, in sales or in customers. The audit puts it in dollars.

Founder-led

The person who listens leads your project.

Each automation is an agent that runs on its own, plugged into your tools. We switch it on when the numbers say it pays off.

  • Lead agent
  • Missed-call agent
  • ActivateInvoice agent
  • Support agent
  • Follow-up agent

What we build

Your tools talk to each other. The work gets done.

A request comes in, the agent reads it, files it and alerts the right person. Nobody retypes anything.

Clients anonymised. Name and detail on request, with their agreement.

How it works

From the first call to go-live.

  1. 01

    A 30-minute call

    Free. We check together whether an audit makes sense for you. If not, we tell you.

  2. 02

    The audit, fixed price

    We measure what each process costs you and rank the automations by yearly gain.

  3. 03

    Go-live

    We build the most profitable one, plug it into your tools and train your team.

The offer

Three steps. You can stop after any of them.

01Start here

Astro Audit

A$2,500 focused · A$6,500 full

fixed prices

We measure what your manual processes cost you and tell you where to start. Two sizes, depending on what you want us to look at.

  • Focused: one process, a few days. Most start here
  • Full: the whole business, two weeks, fully remote
  • Interviews with the owner and the teams
  • Automations ranked by yearly gain, cost and lead time
  • Findings presented over video, with the numbers

The deliverable is yours: have it built by whoever you want.

02

Project

A$5,000 to A$15,000 · fixed

depending on scope

We build one automation, the most profitable one, until it runs in your business. Its price is set from the gain measured in the audit, and we show you the maths.

  • Delivered in stages: in your hands early
  • Go-live and training for your teams
  • Documentation handed over
  • Deposit at kick-off, balance on delivery

One measurable success criterion, written before we start.

03

Monthly support

A$2,500 to A$6,500 a month

optional

We keep what is running alive and take on the next bottleneck. This is where time saved turns into revenue gained.

  • Maintenance included: if it breaks, we fix it
  • Improvements to what is in place
  • The next workstream, every quarter
  • Regular session with the owner

Only offered once the project has proven itself.

The method

Five steps, about ten working days for a full audit. A method, not two vague weeks.

Our commitments

What is written down before we start.

  1. 01

    Fixed price, written scope

    The exact list of what will be delivered is written before you sign. If the need changes, we adjust the scope, not the invoice.

  2. 02

    A price you can check

    You see the maths: what the process costs you per year, and what removing it costs.

  3. 03

    One number, agreed together

    Before we start, we pick with you the number to move and its starting value. That number proves the gain.

  4. 04

    Everything is yours

    The diagnosis, the system and its documentation are handed over to you.

What clients say

Clients say it better than we do.

Treated like a king: flawless quality, real follow-up even three or four months after delivery, and as a bonus a detailed walkthrough of my whole workflow. You can go with your eyes closed.
Jack D.Blog and website agency

I asked Andreas to build a website presenting my work as an upholsterer and decorator. He took the time to understand the finer points of my trade, its meaning and its specialist terms, to build a site that stays close to my work. He also grasped the message I wanted to convey and stayed true to my values, in both the words and the visual identity. He was flexible and responsive throughout our many exchanges. The collaboration was smooth, easy and very pleasant.

Questions

The questions we get asked.

01Why is the audit paid?

Because it is real work, with a costed deliverable that belongs to you and is worth something even if you stop there.

02Focused audit or full audit?

Focused if you already know where it hurts: we look at that process, cost it, and tell you what to build. Full if things grind everywhere and you don't know where to start: we spend two weeks with you and rank everything by gain.

03What if the audit shows it is not worth it?

We tell you. If an automation does not pay for itself within a year, or if we cannot clearly define how we will know it works, we advise against building it. You leave with the diagnosis.

04I just want a quote for an automation.

We don't price blind. Without measuring what the problem costs you, there is no way to know whether the project is worth its price. The 30-minute call is free and checks whether an audit makes sense for you.

05How long before I see a result?

A few days for a focused audit on one process, two weeks for a full audit. The project then depends on the scope, fixed during the audit along with a go-live date.

06Do you need to be on site?

No. The whole audit is remote: video interviews, screen-sharing inside your tools, findings presented over video. Same framework wherever you are, in Australia or in Europe.

07Why not do it ourselves with ChatGPT?

For a single task, go ahead. The audit is there to find what really costs you, connect your tools to each other, and make sure it still works when someone is away or a tool changes.

08What if it breaks?

During the project, it is covered. After that, monthly support includes maintenance: if it breaks, we fix it. Without support, you have the documentation to hand it to whoever you want.

09Who owns what gets built?

You do. The audit deliverable, the system and its documentation are handed over to you.

Let's start

Let's talk numbers.

30 minutes to find out whether an audit makes sense for you. Free, no commitment. If it is not the right time or the right topic, we will tell you.
