Thoughtful AI, built at the pace your team can hold

We visit your offices for half a day and spend time with one or two of your team leads. The conversation follows a short list of prepared questions about how work currently moves — what takes attention, where things slow down, and what the team is already curious about with regard to AI. We take written notes and send a follow-up letter within five working days summarising what we heard and noting what might be worth examining further. There is no presentation and no embedded proposal.

No. We work with teams at various stages of technical readiness. The Still Surface engagement in particular is designed to be accessible to businesses that have not yet formed a view on AI at all. For the Reflective Build and Reservoir Programme, we coordinate with whatever technical resources your organisation has — whether that is a single IT contact or a larger team — and we are explicit about the level of involvement we will need from your side before any build work begins.

From the initial written discussion to the end of the four-week trial, the Reflective Build typically runs between six and ten weeks depending on the complexity of the workflow and your team's availability. The build phase itself is generally two to three weeks, followed by a four-week trial with a small chosen group from within your organisation.

The SGD 945 figure is a monthly engagement fee covering fortnightly working sessions, written progress notes after each session, governance considerations, training coordination, vendor liaison, and a quarterly written review. Costs associated with third-party AI tools or platforms are not included — we are transparent about these before any commitment is made.

Tasek Tech does not collect or retain your organisational data beyond the notes and written documents produced during each engagement, and these remain your property. For any AI tools or platforms introduced as part of a build, we review the vendor's data handling terms with you during the scoping phase and document the relevant policies in the specification. We do not recommend tools whose data practices we cannot explain clearly to your team.

Yes, and many clients do. Each engagement is designed to be complete on its own terms, so the Still Surface letter is useful whether or not you continue. If you decide to proceed to the Reflective Build, the written summary from the listening session serves as a useful starting document. There is no automatic progression and no reduced fee for continuing — each stage is priced independently.
