The Programme

Plain numbers,
no surprises.

Every engagement follows the same shape: one Foundation Setup, a monthly retainer on the path that fits, and bespoke applications built at a day rate. All prices exclude VAT. Hindover Ltd is not currently VAT registered, so no VAT is applied to invoices.

Context

What you're currently paying for

A typical growing business uses most of the following. These are real costs for real tools, every month, forever, for software that half-fits and does not talk to itself.

Combined monthly spendEvery month. Forever.£300 to £2,000+£600 to £900/month. Everything. Integrated. Yours.

The goal is not feature-for-feature parity with every SaaS tool. It is software built precisely for how your business works, without the features you never use and with all the integrations you always needed.

Getting started

Foundation Setup

Every engagement begins here. One-time fee, everything configured and handed over ready to use. Add applications at any time with no new setup fee.

One-time

Foundation Setup

from £3,500
one-time

Covers build, configuration, integration and onboarding. Includes your first two agents: a primary (your Chief of Staff) and an ops director (your second-in-command).

Permissions are entirely configurable. You decide exactly what each agent can access, read and action. Nothing is connected without your explicit agreement, and access levels can be adjusted at any time.

Monthly

Choose your path

Some clients want the AI team alone. Others want the full stack. Start where you are and add applications when you are ready, with no new setup fee. AI credits (around $200/month) are paid directly by you to Anthropic on either path: the only cost not included in the monthly fee.

Path A

Agents only

Your AI team, fully operational. No bespoke applications yet. Ideal for businesses that want to start with intelligent agents before building out a wider stack.

£450
per month
  • Agent environment maintenance
  • All included agents covered
  • Security updates and monitoring
  • Platform upgrades as standard
  • Upgrade to Path B at any time
Path B, full stack

Agents + applications

Your AI team plus every bespoke application in your stack. One monthly fee covers everything. Agent retainer included.

£600 to £900
per month, everything included
  • Starter: up to 5 apps, £600/month
  • Growth: up to 12 apps, £750/month
  • Scale: unlimited apps, £900/month

Additional agents on either path: full ops director £500 setup + £75/month, lightweight single-function agent £250 setup + £40/month.

Build programme

Day rate

Each bespoke application is built at a day rate, scoped and agreed in advance. New features and changes to existing applications are billed the same way.

Per day

Build day

£1,000
per day

Covers scoping, design, build, testing and deployment. Each application is a defined deliverable with agreed scope before work begins. Built using your AI credits: you pay only for time.

Selective

Equity partnership

For a small number of the right businesses, we can structure the engagement around equity rather than purely fees. This is not a standard option: it is offered selectively, where the opportunity is genuinely compelling and the partnership makes sense for both parties.

How it works

The Foundation setup fee remains at the standard rate regardless of any equity arrangement. The setup cost reflects the work of building and configuring your environment, and that does not change based on the commercial structure.

Where equity applies, the reduction is on the ongoing costs: the monthly retainer and the build day rate. Once equity has been agreed and the shareholders agreement is in place, both fees reduce to reflect the partnership. The more invested you are in our success, the more invested we are in yours.

The equity percentage, the level of reduction and the vesting terms are all negotiated individually. There is no formula. What matters is that both parties are genuinely committed to the same outcome.

Requires a formal shareholders agreement. If you think this might be the right structure for your business, let's talk.

Common questions

Asked often, answered honestly.

How long does the build take?
Foundation setup typically takes two to three weeks. Individual applications vary: a CRM or document signing tool is usually five to ten build days. More complex applications with deep integrations may take longer. Every project is scoped before work begins, so you know what you are getting.
Where is it hosted? Who owns it?
Everything runs on a dedicated VPS configured for your business. You own the server, the code and the data. If you ever decide to part ways, you keep everything.
What happens if something breaks?
The monthly retainer covers ongoing maintenance and monitoring. If something breaks, you have a direct line, not a ticket queue. For clients on Path B, application maintenance is included in the retainer.
Can I cancel?
The monthly retainer runs on a rolling basis with 30 days' notice. The Foundation setup fee and build day costs are non-refundable once work has begun, but you keep everything that has been built.
Do I need technical knowledge to use this?
No. The agents interact through plain language via messaging apps you already use. You do not need to understand what is running under the hood: that is the point.
Is there anything you can't build?
Yes, and it is worth being honest about this upfront. What we build excels at business operations: CRMs, workflows, document tools, reporting dashboards, scheduling, data capture, agent automation. What we do not build is consumer-scale software platforms, real-time financial trading systems, complex mobile applications, or anything that would ordinarily require a team of specialist engineers working for years. If you are unsure whether your idea falls within scope, just ask. We would rather have that conversation early than waste your time or ours.
We use Microsoft 365. Does that work?
Yes. The system integrates with Microsoft 365 including Outlook, Teams, OneDrive and SharePoint. Your agents can read email, manage calendar, access files and interact with your Microsoft environment just as naturally as any other stack.
We use Google Workspace. Does that work?
Yes. Google Workspace is fully supported: Gmail, Google Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets and Meet. Your agents can operate across all of it. It does not matter which environment you are on: the agents adapt to yours.
What are the AI credits for?
Your agents are powered by Anthropic's Claude models. Anthropic charges directly for the computing cost, currently around $200/month for a typical business. This is passed through at cost, not marked up. You pay Anthropic directly; it does not go through Hindover.

One of five.
Not one of fifty.

We work with a maximum of five clients at any one time. There are places open.
