# BuildClub

> BuildClub runs operator-led AI engagements for mid-market companies — Phase 0 · Assess for readiness, Phase 1 · Amplify for people, Phase 2 · Workforce for production. Fractional CAIO is the separate Executive Advisory on-ramp.

## Engagements

- **Phase 0 · Assess** — $45K–$65K · 2–5 weeks. CEO and board-level AI readiness engagement anchored by the BuildClub Readiness Index and a full data audit. The default starting point.
- **Phase 1 · Amplify** — $5K–$50K per workflow, flat-rate. Workshops, role-by-role training, and selected workflow automations so your team uses AI tools well inside their actual job flows. Most engagements bundle 2–4 workflows per quarter.
- **Phase 2 · Workforce** — Build: from $25K per agent (you own it). Managed: $2,500 setup + 20% of FTE-equivalent capacity automated / month + 10% gainshare. Digital employees and task-cluster agents that perform a defined role inside your company.
- **Fractional CAIO** — $8K–$16K / month · 3-month minimum. Senior AI operator embedded with your executive team. Standalone Executive Advisory on-ramp, separate from the Phase 0 / 1 / 2 path.
- **Company Brain** — From $80K + ongoing maintenance. Standalone knowledge layer for internal retrieval — access-segmented hybrid graph + RAG that grounds Claude / Copilot / ChatGPT in your institutional knowledge. Separately scoped from Phase 0 / 1 / 2.

Phases are independently engageable. Most clients begin with Phase 0 because the diagnostic determines what's worth doing next.
