## High-Value Details Already On The Page
- Discovery & Analysis: learn what is slowing the business down, review tools and handoffs, name the real issue, and define a good result.
- Strategic Planning: map the smallest useful build, set scope, timing, and price before the work starts, and break the work into clear phases.
- Build & Test: build the fix, connect the moving parts, train the people who will use it, and adjust based on real usage.
- Launch & Handoff: launch cleanly, walk through what changed, fix small approved-scope issues, and offer support only if wanted.
- How fast is fast? Discovery usually takes 1 to 3 days; build timing depends on scope.
- What if scope changes? Small course corrections are fine, but big scope changes get a new price and timeline before more work starts.
- How do we stay in the loop? Short progress updates in plain language.
- What happens after launch? The client can run it or keep Alignment AI involved if they want support. No mandatory retainer.
