Services & Engagements

Everything your business
needs to run smarter.

Qode builds AI decision systems: tools that turn complex conversations, documents and images into clear recommendations and next actions. Three engagement types, built around where your business is right now. No lock-in, no surprises, no hourly rates.

AwarenessAdoptionAcceleration

No hourly rates. Ever.

Every Qode engagement is scoped and priced upfront. You know what you're getting before you commit, the scope is agreed in writing, and the invoice matches the quote. We believe pricing anxiety is the enemy of good work, so we removed it.

Fixed scopeNo lock-inPrototype first
Awareness

Understand AI.
Lead with confidence.

Education-led engagements for leaders, boards, and teams who need clarity before they can act. We cut through the noise with practical, jargon-free sessions that build real confidence, not just awareness.

Tailored presentation, tools and use case overview, Q&A session, leave-behind summary guide
Who it's for
Founders, operations managers, department heads, or any team that needs to build foundational AI literacy before committing to a larger investment. Many clients start here before moving into Adoption or Acceleration.

From $2,000
AI Executive Briefing
A bespoke half-day session for your board and senior leadership teams that need a clear, evidence-based view of what AI means for your business, your industry, and your competitors. You leave with a shared understanding of where AI is creating competitive risk in your industry, and a clear starting point for action.
What's included
Industry and competitor AI landscape research, strategic briefing presentation, facilitated discussion, recommendations, leave-behind executive summary
Who it's for
Boards, C-suite teams, and senior leadership groups making strategic decisions about AI investment and direction

AI Keynote & Panel
An engaging, practical presentation on AI for business. Built for industry events, association meetups, or all-staff session with a practical take on AI to help people be better informed. Audiences leave with a clear, jargon-free view of where AI is heading, what it means for their industry, and one or two things they can act on immediately.
What's included
Tailored presentation (30–60 min), audience Q&A, leave-behind one-pager
Who it's for
Event organisers, industry associations, NFP boards, or businesses running all-hands sessions on AI

Brief call → content tailored to your audience and industry → delivered in-person or via video

Adoption

Turn AI from a subscription
into a team habit.

Most businesses that buy AI tools use 10% of what they paid for. Adoption engagements help teams go from knowing AI exists to using it every day, with the governance, training, and hands-on practice to make it stick.

Enquire about Adoption →
AI Activation Workshop
A hands-on full-day session for your team. Practical prompting, real tools, live use cases. Your staff leave knowing how to use AI in their jobs. The biggest barrier to AI adoption is confidence. Your staff leave with practical prompting skills, a clear sense of which tools suit which tasks, and the ability to build simple AI workflows the next morning.
What's included
Full-day facilitated workshop (up to 15 staff), tools overview, prompting masterclass, skills and agents walkthrough, hands-on practice with real business use cases, leave-behind guide, 30-day follow-up call
Who it's for
Teams of any size wanting to build genuine AI capability across the business, not just the leadership. Ideal for businesses who've bought Copilot, Gemini, or Claude licences and aren't getting value from them
How it works
Pre-workshop discovery call + staff survey → tailored full-day session (remote or in-person) → leave-behind report → 30-day follow-up call included
From $5,000
AI Governance & Policy
We help you establish clear AI policies so your teams can use AI confidently, without the risk of doing it wrong. Without a clear policy, staff make their own decisions about what is safe to share with AI tools. A governance framework protects your business while giving your teams the confidence to move faster.
What's included
AI use policy document, data handling guidelines, approved tools list, staff communication template, leadership briefing
Who it's for
Businesses rolling out AI tools across their team and needing a framework that's practical rather than a compliance exercise
How it works
Discovery call → policy draft → review → final document delivered within 5 business days
From $2,500
ChatGPT / Claude / Copilot / Gemini AI Activation
You're already paying for AI but not getting the most out of it. We configure your workflows, train your team, and build rituals. Default settings are built for the average business. We configure tools around how your team works, build a prompt library for common tasks, and create the habits that make AI stick beyond the first week.
What's included
Platform configuration, workflow mapping, team training session (up to 10 staff), prompt library for your common tasks, 30-day check-in
Who it's for
Businesses with existing Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace subscriptions who want to get real value from the AI features they're already paying for
How it works
Audit your current setup → configure and activate → train your team → 30-day check-in included
From $3,500
Acceleration

Sprint. Build. Care.
Transform the way you work.

For founders and GMs who know something is inefficient and want it fixed properly. We map your operations end-to-end, identify where AI creates the most value, and build a purpose-built tool that transforms it. You see it working before we build anything.

AI Decision System Sprint
Two to three weeks. We map your customer journey or workflow, assess your data, build a working prototype and put a fixed production quote and business case in front of you. You see your system working before you commit to building it. Part of the sprint fee can be credited toward the production build.
What's included
Customer journey or workflow mapping, data assessment, working prototype built on your real data, business case, fixed quote for the production build
Who it's for
Founders and GMs who want to see an AI system working on their own data before committing budget to a full build.
How it works
Discovery call → two to three week sprint → working prototype, business case, and fixed production quote delivered. Part of the sprint fee is credited toward the production build.
From $7,500
AI Decision System Build
Customer-facing or internal systems that turn conversations, documents and images into recommendations and next actions. Fixed scope, fixed price after the sprint, tested against your real data, with human escalation built in. Typical engagements run $15,000 to $50,000 depending on integrations and complexity.
What's included
AI decision system build, integration with your existing tools, testing against your real data, human escalation paths, deployment, handover documentation, 30-day support
Who it's for
Businesses with a clear operational problem worth automating, whether identified through an AI Decision System Sprint or your own diagnosis
How it works
AI Decision System Sprint → fixed production quote → build → test → deploy. Fixed price after the sprint, based on business impact, not hours.
From $15,000
Custom App or Platform Build
Sometimes the right solution is a purpose-built app: a customer-facing tool, an internal platform, or a web application that does exactly what your business needs. Complex, integrated or regulated systems are scoped individually.
What's included
Discovery and scoping, UX and design, AI-integrated build, testing, launch, documentation. Can include websites, web apps, customer-facing portals, internal tools, or booking and management platforms.
Who it's for
Businesses whose problem can't be solved by off-the-shelf software, or who've tried it and found it doesn't fit
How it works
AI Decision System Sprint or discovery call → prototype → phased build → launch. All builds are AI-assisted, which means faster delivery and lower cost than traditional development.
From $25,000
Managed AI Care
Your AI system, kept sharp after launch. Monitoring, incident response, model and knowledge updates, and quality evaluation, with a next-business-day response commitment. The Growth Optimisation tier adds monthly analytics, recommendation-quality reviews, conversion improvements and a capped enhancement allowance, from $1,250/month. API and hosting costs stay yours and are passed through transparently.

Common questions
about working with Qode.

Every service lists its pricing openly: Awareness and Adoption engagements from $2,000, Decision System Sprints from $7,500, production builds from $15,000, and Managed AI Care from $450 per month. We quote based on the business problem and expected impact, not hours. No surprises, no hidden fees.

A two-to-three-week engagement that ends with a working prototype on your real data, a business case, and a fixed quote for the production build. It replaces months of workshops and proposals with something you can try.

Yes, when the website is part of a bigger job. Our focus is AI-ready digital experiences: information architecture, search foundations and guided intake, from $15,000. Standard websites start at $7,500, and we refer smaller jobs to trusted partners.

Get in touch and describe what you need. If it's close to something we offer, we'll scope it as a custom engagement. If it's outside our wheelhouse, we'll tell you and point you in the right direction.

No lock-in contracts. Project engagements are scoped and invoiced per milestone, and Managed AI Care is month-to-month, cancellable any time. We'd rather earn your trust on every engagement than trap you in paperwork.

Sprints are paid on kick-off. Production builds are invoiced 50% upfront and 50% on delivery. Care plans are billed monthly in advance. We accept card, bank transfer, and BPAY.

We're based in Sydney and work with businesses across Australia, remotely or on-site. Everything we do can be delivered 100% online.
