- Do you bill hourly?
- For work outside a package, $250 an hour with an eight hour minimum. It is rarely the right shape: the value here is a measurement and a decision, not time at a desk.
- What if the audit finds nothing?
- Then you get that in writing, with the runs to back it up, and you stop worrying about it. A report that cannot come back empty is not a measurement, so that outcome has to stay on the table.
- Why is the free scan actually free?
- It is HTTP requests. No language model runs, so it costs bandwidth and nothing else. Charging for it would be charging for a script whose every rule is published, which you can reproduce with curl.
- Will you publish what you find about us?
- The scans in our own published corpus are published as we produce them, because every line is one HTTP request with a published rule and you can reproduce all of it. A scan you run yourself never joins that corpus: it gets a permanent link you can forward, and we do not post it anywhere. A paid audit is yours: nothing from it is published without your written agreement, and if we ever want to write about a pattern we saw, you get the draft and ten working days before anything goes out.
- What do you need from us?
- For the audit, nothing but the product as a customer sees it. No repository access, no staging environment, no calls with your engineers. That is the point: the measurement has to happen from outside, the way an agent meets you.
- Can we just buy the fixes?
- Yes, but a fix sprint without a measurement is guesswork with an invoice attached. If you already know what is wrong, say so and we will scope it directly.
