AI Strategy Session — $500 · 60 minutes · written recommendations within 2 business days · credited in full toward your first engagement.
This is a working session, not a sales call. We've shipped production AI systems for a major streaming studio's TV production, a recruiting firm, and HIPAA-regulated healthcare platforms. For one hour, that experience works on your problem.
Book a Strategy Session — $500
If the booking page doesn't work well with your assistive technology — or you'd simply rather book by email — write to hello@4boots.us and we'll book you manually and send a Stripe invoice.
What you get
- 60 minutes with the founder — the person who architects and ships the systems, not a salesperson.
- We prepare before you arrive. You'll answer six questions when you book. We review your answers, your product, and anything you attach before the call — so we start at the interesting part.
- Real work on the call: opportunity mapping, architecture sketches, build-vs-buy calls, model and vendor selection, honest feasibility and cost ranges.
- A written brief within 2 business days: your situation, three to five prioritized recommendations, and a concrete next step — even if that next step isn't us.
- The $500 is credited in full toward any engagement you start within 90 days.
- Guaranteed: if you don't get actionable value, say so within a week and we refund everything. You keep the brief.
Who this is for
- Founders and operators who suspect agentic AI could remove real work from their business, and want a straight answer on what's feasible before committing budget.
- Teams that have been burned by a flaky LLM demo or a stalled pilot and want to understand what production-grade actually requires.
- Companies in a specific vertical — production studios, recruiting, healthcare, or anywhere with deep domain workflows — wondering whether a custom AI copilot for their operation is realistic.
- Startups that need growth — content, community, or lead generation — and want it done without the AI-slop look.
- Healthcare organizations that need AI and HIPAA/SOC 2 rigor in the same conversation.
Who this is not for
- Anyone who wants a product demo or a vendor pitch. We'll show relevant prior work if it helps answer your question, but you're buying advice, not a slideshow.
- "Just exploring" with no decision on the horizon. Read our case studies first — they're free. Book when there's a real question with stakes attached.
- Anyone expecting us to validate a decision that's already final. We'll tell you what we actually think, including "don't build this."
- Agencies looking to white-label or resell. Email us instead; that's a different conversation.
Questions people ask
Why do you charge for a first call?
Because it changes what the call is. A free call is a sales conversation where both sides perform; a paid session is a working meeting where we prepare in advance and give you real answers — including unprofitable ones like "you don't need us for this." The fee also keeps the calendar clear enough that we can prepare. And since it's credited toward your first engagement, serious buyers effectively pay nothing.
What if we don't end up hiring you?
Then you spent $500 on an hour of senior architecture advice plus a written action plan — which is the point. Between the preparation, the call, and the brief, you're getting roughly three hours of the same senior time clients pay full consulting rates for.
What should we prepare?
Just the booking questionnaire — about ten minutes. If you have materials that would help — a product link, an architecture doc, a workflow description — attach or link them and we'll review before the call. Need an NDA first? Mention it in the questionnaire and we'll sort it before the session.
Can my team join?
Yes — the price is for the session, not per seat. Bring whoever owns the problem. In practice, one to three people from your side works best; more than that and it becomes a presentation instead of a working session.
What if I need to move it, or the session isn't useful?
Reschedule free up to 24 hours before; cancel for a full refund up to 48 hours before. And if you take the session and honestly didn't get actionable value, tell us within 7 days and we'll refund the full $500 — no argument, and you keep the brief.
