THE FOUR PRODUCTIZED AGENTS
Pick the one that hurts most.
Four baseline templates. Each one tunes to your tools, your data, your edge cases on Day 0. 7 days from payment to handoff.
THE WAY ALCHMY WORKS
Fully automated
Each agent runs in your stack. We build it, hand it over, and it works without you watching it.
Async — no calls required
Pay, fill the intake form, get the build. Want a call? Available on request. Almost no one uses one.
You own everything
The agent, the prompts, the config, the repo. Yours forever. No subscription lock-in, no hostage data.
Inbox Triage
Reads every email overnight. Sorts the noise. Drafts replies in your voice.
Your morning, back.
247 unread → sorted bins + 4 reply drafts in your voice, waiting before you finish coffee. ~90 minutes reclaimed every morning. Runs overnight while you sleep.
Baseline template. Fully customizable to your workflow on Day 0 intake.
Lock my slot — $497 deposit →Need three connected agents? Workflow Pack — $12,500, 4–6 weeks. Want ongoing maintenance and a new agent each quarter? Agent Subscription — $2,500–5,000/mo, cancel anytime.
THE 7-DAY ASYNC BUILD
Pay Monday. Shipped next Monday.
No kickoff call. No demo call. No handoff call. The whole engagement runs on a structured form, written async loops, and a final Loom walkthrough. Calls available on request — almost no one uses one.
$497 scope-lock deposit secures your build slot. You submit the intake form (~15 minutes of structured questions). No call required, no full price upfront.
I review your intake. If anything's unclear, you get one short async loop in writing. Scope locks within 24 hours.
I build. You're not involved. Daily progress logged in your private build channel — read it if you want to.
v1 ships to staging on your real data. You get a 10-minute Loom walkthrough plus a structured feedback form. Reply when you have time.
One iteration round on your written feedback. Production deploy and monitoring.
Handoff: Loom walkthrough, written docs, repo access. You own everything. Final invoice for the remainder triggered — only after you have the agent in hand.

THE LONG GAME
After the Starter Agent ships.
Most clients retain Alchmy at $3,500/mo after delivery. The retainer covers ongoing maintenance, one new small agent each quarter, and same-business-day Slack support. Cancel anytime — no commitment, no lock-in.
About a third of clients say no and the agent runs great without ongoing support. About a third sign on the day of handoff. The rest land between three and six months later.
THE OBVIOUS QUESTIONS
Common questions.
›Do I have to pay the full price upfront?
No. You pay a $497 scope-lock deposit at checkout. The remainder ($2,498–$4,498 depending on SKU) is invoiced on Day 7 — only after you have the working agent in your hands. You're never out more than $497 until the build is delivered.
›Do I have to be on calls during the build?
No. Standard delivery is async. You pay the $497 deposit, submit a structured intake form (~15 min), and the next time you hear from me is Day 5 with a Loom of v1 in staging. You can request a call at any point — but most engagements ship without one. The async-by-default model is a feature, not a bug.
›Who sees my data during the build?
Only me. No team, no subcontractors. NDA available on request. Work happens against redacted samples until you sign off on v1. The async model means your data never gets walked through on a screenshare with anyone else in the room.
›What if I need to edit the agent later?
Your agent, your prompts, your config — yours forever. A 30-minute handoff training session is included for whoever on your team holds the keys.
›What if it stops working at month three?
Bug fixes are free for 30 days post-launch. After that, the Agent Subscription ($3,500/mo) covers maintenance plus one new small agent each quarter. Or pay nothing and the agent is still yours.
›Is there a discount available?
No. Each Starter Agent has a fixed price ($2,995 / $3,995 / $4,995). Discounts unwind productized economics. Referral fees go to the person who introduced you, never as a discount on your invoice.
›How is this different from ChatGPT or n8n?
ChatGPT is a chat window. n8n is no-code orchestration. This is a custom agent built on your specific data, deployed in your environment, owned by you. ChatGPT and n8n can serve as building blocks — the deliverable is the working agent.
›What about regulated data?
HIPAA, SOC 2, FINRA, and on-prem deployments are out of scope in year one. Compliance overhead exceeds margin at these price points. Reopens once Alchmy reaches scale.

Alchmy track record
WHY MOST PILOTS FAIL
- ✕Built by a vendor team that hands off to a different team for delivery
- ✕Scope balloons mid-build — fixed timelines crumble
- ✕No production muscle memory — first time the team has shipped this thing
- ✕Stakeholder calls eat the build calendar
WHY ALCHMY RESCUES SHIP
- ✓Solo-built — same hands from kickoff to handoff. No information loss.
- ✓Fixed-fee, fixed-scope. Change orders are explicit, not silent.
- ✓Same async muscle that ships Starter Agents in 7 days, scaled to a 60-day Pilot Rescue.
- ✓Zero standing meetings. Loom + written feedback loops.
Pilot Rescue is $35–55k, 60 days, fixed-scope. Three phases: audit (week 1), rebuild (weeks 2–6), ship + monitor (weeks 7–8). Rare engagement — only 1–2 in flight at a time.
NOT ON THE LIST?
Build something custom.
Same fixed-fee, async-first model — typical custom agent runs $4,995–$12,500.
Async — start the form.
Fill the intake form. Get a scoped quote within one business day. Pay → 7-day build clock. Zero meetings.
Open the intake form →Call — book 20 min.
Prefer to talk first? Book a quick scoping call. Same async build kicks off after.
