Questions and answers

Questions about working with Argonous.

How discovery calls, paid projects, testing, handover and ongoing support work.

Do we need to know what to build?

No. Start with what is slow, repetitive or difficult. The discovery call helps establish whether there is a useful next step. Detailed investigation and solution design are paid work.

What happens on the free discovery call?

We spend 30 minutes discussing the problem, its business impact and whether Argonous can help. If there is a fit, we explain the next paid step. We do not produce a technical design or implementation plan on the call.

Will you recommend a paid project every time?

No. The call may show that the problem is not ready, not a fit, or better addressed through a simpler change.

What does paid discovery produce?

A closer assessment of the work, options, risks and likely value, with a recommendation and defined next step. The exact deliverables are agreed in the scope.

Can we start with a pilot?

Yes, when one valuable problem is clear, the inputs are available and someone owns the result. A larger build follows paid discovery or an evidenced pilot.

How much does it cost?

Fees depend on the agreed scope, complexity and delivery responsibility. We confirm the work and payment terms before paid work starts.

Can you work with our existing tools?

We assess the tools and information you already use. What can be connected depends on access, data quality and the agreed scope.

Will our team stay in control?

Yes. We agree what the system can prepare and where people must review and approve important decisions.

Can AI send outreach or publish automatically?

People approve outreach, publishing, pricing, claims and commercial commitments. AI can help prepare work for that review.

How do you handle sensitive information?

We agree what information is needed, who can access it and how it will be handled before using sensitive records. Please use general or anonymised examples in the initial enquiry.

How will we know whether it helped?

We agree what to measure and compare the result with the starting position. Any estimate of benefit depends on the evidence and assumptions; savings and revenue increases are not guaranteed.

What happens after delivery?

We provide the agreed handover and operating notes. Ongoing support, response expectations and improvements are agreed separately.

Can we see examples of your work?

We share examples where the work and permissions allow. Any illustrative example is clearly labelled, and measured results are distinguished from intended benefits.

Have a problem you’d like to discuss?

A free 30-minute conversation can help establish whether there is a useful next step.
