Pricing
Pricing that matches the scope of the diagnostic.
The first product is a service-first procurement margin diagnostic, not a SaaS subscription. Pricing is scoped to operation complexity, data volume, and review depth. One missed vendor drift pattern can pay for the diagnostic. No guaranteed savings.
Diagnostic Review
Starting at $2,500
One-time fee. Scoped after intake.
For operators who need a focused read on where purchasing leakage may be hiding across vendors, categories, and invoices.
- Intake and data quality review
- Vendor drift scan on high-volume SKUs
- Category risk snapshot (protein, produce, dairy, dry goods, disposables)
- Margin Leak Brief and Vendor Drift Summary
- Pilot recommendation with ranked actions
- Human reviewed, not automated
Pilot Review
$2,500 setup
+ $3,500 / month pilot
For multi-location operators or distributors ready to review a defined business unit, vendor set, or category group.
- Deeper data review across 60-90 days of invoices and price sheets
- Price exception queue with severity and action labels
- Freight and rebate leakage review
- Pack-size and substitution watch
- Pilot Decision Memo with 30 / 60 / 90-day plan
- Review call and follow-up action tracking
Ongoing Margin Review
Custom
Scoped to operation complexity.
For operators who want recurring procurement visibility and decision support.
- Recurring review cadence (monthly or quarterly)
- Vendor drift monitoring and exception alerts
- Category movement review and margin tracking
- Rebate and freight reconciliation
- Quarterly decision memo and action tracking
- Shape future software modules from real data
Software systems and recurring dashboards are in development. Early pilots are selective and may shape the operating system. Pricing does not imply guaranteed savings.
What is included in each tier.
Every tier includes founder-led human review. The difference is scope, depth, and recurrence.
What pricing buys
- A founder-led procurement margin diagnostic with invoice, vendor drift, and human review on every conclusion.
- Vendor drift scan, category risk console, price exception queue, and decision memo.
- A written action plan ranked by business relevance and effort required.
- Direct founder access during the diagnostic and a follow-up review call.
What pricing does not buy
- No guaranteed savings or promised recovery number.
- No autonomous purchasing or AI that replaces your buyers.
- No finished SaaS platform with dashboards and self-serve tools.
- No enterprise system integration or API access from day one.
ROI framing
Hard but honest.
One missed vendor drift
A single high-volume protein SKU with unreviewed price movement can create more variance in one quarter than the cost of the diagnostic.
One uncollected rebate
A dairy or disposables rebate left unreconciled for two quarters can exceed the pilot setup fee.
One freight change
A fuel surcharge or delivery minimum change unnoticed for 90 days can add up to more than a month of ongoing review cost.
These are examples, not promises. Your operation may find nothing. The diagnostic is still useful because it gives you a baseline and a ranked action plan. No guaranteed savings.

Every engagement starts with a fit review. We do not sell a diagnostic to an operation where the data or the complexity does not justify the work.
