Six entry points
One thesis. Six ways to start.
By 2026 a typical enterprise software project has AI doing 60% of the work at 10% of the cost. Five of these services build the system for you. One coaches your team to ship without us.
01
Modernisation
Replace legacy systems in weeks, not 14-month overruns. AI agents map what actually runs, decode the rules nobody documented, and rebuild the test scaffold from runtime traces. Your team owns the new system at exit.
11 weeks median · 40–60% lower cost →02
Operations & Integration
RPA and ESB out, connected AI systems in. Run cost down 50–70%. Money-touching writes still pass a human gate before any record changes.
From $80k →03
AI Adoption
Your team ships AI without us in 90 days. With-you mode. We work alongside your engineers until independent shipment is the norm, not the exception.
3–6 months →04
Customer Experience
Support, CRM, and content with brand-voice eval gates. AI drafts, humans review, no false reply reaches a buyer. 88% deflect rate on routine queries.
From $25k/mo →05
Software Build
Custom products and greenfield software, shipped in 8 to 14 weeks. AI authors the bulk of the code. Humans own architecture, security, and sign-off.
8–14 weeks · outcome-priced →06
Maintenance & SRE
AI in the alert path. 50–70% drop in human-paged incidents. Known faults close without a person. Retainer cost goes down as the automation rate goes up.

Each service runs the same method. Different shape, different rig.
Starting price, typical duration, and named quality checks focus for each. Pick the entry that matches the engagement shape, not the firm's framework.

Which service fits
A 30-second route to the right entry point.
Replacing a legacy system?
Fixing integration chaos or RPA breakage?
Building a new product or feature?
Want skill in-house, not vendor delivery?
Customer support drowning in template debt?
On-call team paged for things a machine could close?
Where most engagements start
Modernisation is the most common starting point. The legacy system carries pricing rules nobody documented, and the rebuild has stalled twice on the same data archaeology problem.
Operations & Integration is the next. RPA bots breaking on every quarterly upstream change, plus an ESB estate paid by seat count instead of usage.
AI Adoption is the with-you mode for teams that want skill transfer over delivery. The engagement closes when your engineers ship an AI feature without us on the call.
Each service runs the same method
Three phases. Diagnose, Design, Deliver. Two weeks of listening before a line of code. The price agreed at the end of Design is the price of the build.
Every engagement ships an quality checks the client owns at exit — the quality gates that ran during delivery, available to run again on any future change.
EffektAI — the platform behind the method →What we do not bid for
We do not bid for autonomous AI decisioning against individuals (clinical, judicial, financial), AI deployments without a named human accountable, or work that requires data to leave Australia.
