Exiid takes on few engagements, deliberately. Advisory fits either lane; Build is Client Services; Venture Partnership is the Ventures lane. Every track starts with a structured brief, gets a reply within 2–3 business days, and ends in next steps or a direct no-go with the reason. Fit calls follow brief review, not a free pitch meeting. Reply within 2–3 business days: next steps or a direct no-go with the reason.
Indicative bands, scoped and confirmed after brief review. Not yet validated by closed Client Services engagements.
Build first step: Decision Diagnostic from $1,500Known number before open scope.
Method terms
Advisory · either lane
RECON only: operator judgment on a decision you cannot afford to get wrong.
Two to four weeks, one written go/no-go memo. Founders and operators facing a model, market, or systems decision get the same evaluation discipline Exiid runs internally: reference models named, evidence weighed, recommendation with reasoning attached. You leave with a verdict, not a deck. If a gate fails mid-sprint, the work stops and so does the billing.
Advisory sprint: 2 to 4 weeks
Written go/no-go memo + working sessions, then done
$6,000–$18,000
Indicative scoped advisory sprint · 2–4 weeks · written go/no-go memo
Client Services
Build is cheap. Wrong bets are expensive. Install the decision and growth stack.
Scoped systems work for operators who already own the market. Build is abundant; the cost is deciding wrong and running loops that never compound. Entry is a Client Services brief and a Decision Diagnostic (from $1,500), a known number before open scope. Then Proof Sprint, then install Signal, Growth, or Operator bundle once the memo clears. External installs are opening now; first engagements are in progress. If a gate fails, the work stops and so does the billing, no retainer tail.
Decision Diagnostic → Proof Sprint → install bundle: 4 to 12 weeks typical
RECON → RAID · diagnose → prove → install → instrument
from $1,500 Decision Diagnostic · $5,000–$10,000 Proof Sprint
Indicative · Decision Diagnostic → Proof Sprint → install bundle · 4–12 weeks · no retainer tail
Ventures
Co-owned ventures where market access meets the Exiid stack.
Joint ventures with partners who bring verifiable market access, domain depth, or distribution, not slide-deck intros. Exiid brings the same RECON discipline: Model Transfer Evaluation, validation gates, product and AI build capacity, and growth architecture. Evaluation runs two to four weeks; validation sprints follow only if the thesis clears written gates. Ownership follows contribution, instrumented from day one.
Evaluation 2–4 weeks → validation sprint 3–6 weeks → build, gated by milestones
Milestone-gated, co-owned, instrumented from day one
$5,000–$10,000
Indicative Model Transfer Evaluation · 2–4 weeks · go/no-go memo before co-build
/ Build track ladder
Each step has a written stop criterion. If a gate fails, the work stops , and so does the billing.
Self-assess model, market, edge, and proof, route to the right Brief Desk path before paid work.
Map decision gaps, tracking blind spots, and loop failures. Written friction map and go/no-go criteria before open scope.
Time-boxed demand test or architecture proof with written stop criteria. Outcome is a go/no-go memo with evidence attached.
Install Signal, Growth, or Operator stack once RECON clears: validation + analytics, loops + GTM, or AI + product ops.
