Every engagement runs the same way. Predictable is the differentiator.
- Step 01Scoping call
One 45-minute call. I name the outcome, the shape, the duration. If GoAlgo isn't the right shop, I say so and refer.
- Step 02Fixed SOW
One page. Deliverables, milestones, price, timeline. You sign or you don't, no chasing.
- Step 03Week 1 kickoff
Repo you own from day one. Standup log in shared doc. Week-1 demo goal on paper before an engineer opens an editor.
- Step 04Friday demos
Every Friday, without exception. Real code running against real data. Not slides.
- Step 05Handoff
Docs, runbook, on-call cheat sheet. I schedule the onboarding session with your engineers, not just an emailed zip.
- Step 06Post-mortem
One-page write-up: what worked, what the engineers would change. Shared with you and, anonymized, kept in my own log.
Four commitments in writing.
- C01Working demo by end of week two, or the sprint fee is refunded.
- C02Standup log written daily to a shared doc, no dark work.
- C03Source code available from day one in a repo you control.
- C04You have veto on any tool, model, or vendor choice.
The engineers work in your world.
The team adopts your tooling stack for the engagement: Slack, Linear, GitHub, Notion, whichever. Default stack otherwise:
