AI agents aren’t a crock-pot — you don’t set and forget. Models update, prompts drift, rules change, staff turn over. The Operating Partner keeps everything your sprints built tuned, compliant, and current. From $695/month by company size. Cancel with 30 days’ notice — no lock-in.
All advice vetted by a human — always.
As tools update and your workflows evolve, we review performance and adjust prompts and configurations — before drift becomes a customer-facing mistake.
Hours saved, outputs approved, outputs edited or rejected — a five-minute read you can hand a partner or your accountant.
Every tool re-checked against its no-training terms, scorecards refreshed, risk register updated, team proficiency re-benchmarked. Shadow AI and configuration drift are how compliant stacks quietly stop being compliant.
When Ottawa or Queen’s Park moves on AI or privacy law, you get a plain-English briefing: what changed, what it means for your stack, whether anything needs doing. We read the bills so you don’t have to.
Plus priority support between calls, and an optional quarterly check of how AI assistants describe your business to prospects.
| Your total headcount | Monthly |
|---|---|

| 10 – 24 | $1,195 |
| 25 – 50 | $1,995 |

By company size: $695/month (solo to 9 staff), $1,195 (10-24), $1,995 (25-50). Cancel anytime with 30 days' notice — no annual lock-in. For context, comparable Canadian AI optimization retainers are published at $2,000-$10,000 per month; ours is scoped tighter on purpose: tuning, governance and watch, not a fractional executive.
Because the ground moves: AI models update monthly, prompts drift, staff change, and the rules are changing fastest of all — Canada's regulators ruled on AI three times in the past year alone. Unmanaged 'shadow AI' adds about $308,000 to the average Canadian breach (IBM, 2025). The retainer is how the system you paid for keeps earning.
When federal or Ontario law moves on AI, privacy, or marketing rules, we read the actual bills and guidance, assess your specific stack, and send a plain-English briefing — what changed, what it means for you, what to do if anything. You'll know before your competitors' consultants have finished googling.
Yes — 30 days' written notice, obligations end at the notice period, and you keep every document, policy and configuration we've built. A retainer should be re-earned every month; that's the point of it.
At least one completed build, yes — ongoing tuning needs deployed agents to tune. Most clients arrive here after a Quick Start or their first sprint from the 90-day plan.
