What does the Operations Vanguard licence cost?

£1,000 a month on a two-year term, the same term as a founding licence. There are ten seats on this engine.

Does it show real profit per project?

Yes, and that is the reason this engine exists. Timesheets feed a true hourly cost, cost feeds margin, and margin shows per engagement and per person — so profitability is read off the screen rather than rebuilt in a spreadsheet at the end of the quarter.

Can it sync jobs from Synergist?

Yes. Campaign and pipeline sync is part of this engine, so jobs can come in from Synergist, or you can run projects natively. Custom fields, modules and integrations are included too.

How is this different from the £4,000 founding licence?

Scope. The founding licence is all five engines plus every other feature, with unlimited seats, feature requests built for you by name, same-day bug SLAs, priority VIP support and pricing grandfathered for life. The Operations Vanguard is one engine of that platform, complete, with early access and a monthly line to the team but without the benefits reserved for the ten.

Can I add another engine later?

Yes — up to three. Marketing, Sales and People are £1,000 a month each and Growth is £1,500. A deal won in Sales becomes scheduled work in Operations without re-keying, and People gives you the capacity picture behind the workload. Tell us the combination when you apply and we will price it with you.

Is there an onboarding fee?

Yes — £900 + VAT for a Vanguard licence. That is half the standard £1,800, because one engine is materially less to set up than the whole platform. Combining two or three? Onboarding is part of the same conversation as the combination itself. Founding partners pay no onboarding at all — it is waived, and it is one of the things only the ten ever get. All prices exclude VAT.

What do you ask from me in return?

Run live delivery through the platform rather than a test account, give us a short honest feedback session each month, and try new features early so we hear about the rough edges from you first.

Founding programme · Operations Vanguard

Your entire delivery operation. One engine.

Plan the work, deliver it, track every hour and bill it. Projects, workloads, timesheets, utilisation, workflows and invoicing in one place — so profit per engagement is a number you read, not a spreadsheet somebody rebuilds every month.

The programme

A founding seat, focused on delivery.

The founding programme puts the first ten clients on the complete Landing Platform — the whole operating system for running a business — at a fixed founding rate. The Operations Vanguard licence is a deliberately narrower seat inside that same cohort: the full project, time and billing engine, for a focus group whose feedback steers the roadmap.

★ Operations Vanguard

£1,000 / month

A focused subset: plan the work, deliver it, track every hour and bill it — projects, time, automation and money in one place.

Focus-group cohort · 10 seats
The delivery engine, complete
A direct line to the team

Onboarding £900 + VAT — half the standard fee, because one engine is less to set up.

Why "Vanguard."

This cohort goes first. You get early access to the delivery engine and a direct hand in shaping it — new features land with you before anyone else, and what you tell us we build. A clean path to the full founding licence whenever you're ready to bring marketing, sales and people onto the same platform.

What's included

Your complete delivery engine.

Four groups, every feature switched on. Nothing here is throttled, seat-gated or held back for a higher tier — inside this engine you have what a founding partner has.

Projects, time and money in one place.

Plan the work, deliver it, track every hour, and bill it — sync jobs in from Synergist or run native. Because timesheets feed true hourly cost and cost feeds margin, the profit on an engagement stops being an end-of-quarter reconstruction. Workflows keep the routine moving without anyone chasing it.

Replaces the likes of Monday, ClickUp, Asana, Notion and Toggl — as one subscription on one data layer.

Where you sit

You're in the founding programme. Just not at the head of the table.

We'd rather be straight about this than dress it up. A Vanguard licence is a genuine founding-cohort seat with genuine influence — and it is not the same thing as being one of the ten.

What you get as a Vanguard

Special.

A seat in the founding programme, on the same two-year term
New delivery features land with you before anyone else
A monthly session with the team that builds it
What you tell us, we build — you steer the roadmap

Ten seats on this engine, then it closes

What the ten get that you don't

Distinguished.

Every feature on the platform — all five engines, not one
Unlimited seats, no per-seat fees
Monthly feature requests built for them, by name
Same-day SLA on any bug · priority VIP support
White-glove migration off their whole stack
Onboarding waived — £1,800 + VAT nobody else escapes
Grandfathered preferential pricing for life

Both of you are in the room while this is being built. One of you has the whole floor.

All prices exclude VAT.

The path forward

Beyond the delivery engine.

Vanguard is the delivery layer. The full founding licence opens the rest of the operating system — the capabilities that win the work and market it. Upgrade whenever it's right.

Combine engines

Operations is one of five. Take two, or three.

They share one data layer, so a second engine doesn't sit alongside operations — it plugs into it. A deal won in Sales becomes scheduled work here without re-keying; People gives you the capacity picture behind the workload.

Two or three is the sweet spot. Four means take the founding seat.

Tell us the combination when you apply and we'll price it with you — combinations are a conversation, not a checkout. And if you want four or five, we'll say so plainly: the £4,000 founding seat is all five engines, every other feature, unlimited seats, pricing protected for life — and the £1,800 onboarding waived. It's the better deal.

What we ask

Your part of the bargain.

Three things, and they're the price of going first. None of them are onerous; all of them are non-negotiable.

Use it for real

Run live delivery through the platform — real projects, real hours. A test account teaches us nothing and gets you nothing.

Tell us straight

A short feedback session each month. What works, what's missing, what to build. Bluntness is genuinely more useful to us than politeness.

Go first

Try new features early and help us shape them before they ship to everyone. You see the rough edges first — that's the trade.
