Cost guide
What it costs to replace your whole stack. Less than staying put.
The fear is that switching everything at once is expensive and risky. In practice the bigger risk is the slow, compounding cost of doing nothing.

Why switching feels scarier than it is
Most teams stay on a bloated stack because moving feels like open-heart surgery. The instinct is understandable, but it overestimates the pain of switching and underestimates the cost of staying.
A modern build does not rip everything out on day one. It runs alongside what you have, takes over one workflow at a time, and only fully replaces a tool once the new one is proven.
The real timeline
Weeks, not the year you are bracing for
Because AI handles the repetitive build work, a full platform lands in two to eight weeks depending on scope. That is the entire replacement, not a single feature.
Migration of your existing data is part of that timeline. You are not asking your team to re-enter years of records by hand.
The cost of waiting
Doing nothing has a price too
Every month on the old stack is another month of subscriptions, lost time, and renewal increases. That number never goes down on its own.
Replacing the stack converts a growing rental cost into a fixed, owned asset. The sooner the switch, the sooner the meter stops climbing.
By the numbers
Replace versus stay, over three years
Common questions
Questions about the cost
Do we have to switch everything at once?
No. The platform runs alongside your current tools and takes over one workflow at a time, so there is no risky big-bang cutover.
How long does a full replacement take?
Most platforms launch in two to eight weeks depending on scope, including migration of your existing data.
What if a tool we love has no replacement?
If a capability is missing, it gets built in. The goal is a single platform that covers how you actually work.
Is migration included in the price?
Yes. Moving your data into the new platform is part of the build, not a separate line item.
Built in, not billed extra
