Advisory Rates & Engagement Guidance
Clear, fixed-scope advisory fees and factors that guide diagnostic engagement estimates.
At Toolkit Work, we structure our advisory services around clear, fixed-scope project agreements. We believe technical teams deserve upfront clarity on investment, timelines, and tangible deliverables without ambiguous hourly billing surprises or forced long-term retainers.
Standard Advisory Engagement Scopes
The table below outlines our standard advisory engagements, typical timelines, and base investment ranges:
| Advisory Engagement | Scope & Focus | Typical Timeline | Base Investment Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Onboarding Funnel Diagnostic Audit (Flagship) | End-to-end telemetry verification, step-by-step drop-off analysis, and remediation blueprint across registration to activation. | 10 Business Days | $4,200 – $6,800 USD |
| Event Taxonomy Architecture | Standardized Noun-Verb event schema design, property dictionary, data typing rules, and engineering governance guidelines. | 7–10 Business Days | $3,400 – $5,200 USD |
| Activation Drop-off Sprint | Targeted diagnostic on the critical first-run session, TTFV analysis, empty-state friction, and friction hotspot ranking. | 5–7 Business Days | $2,800 – $3,900 USD |
| Telemetry Stack Verification | Code-level inspection of client SDKs, network payload integrity, race conditions, and privacy compliance filters. | 5 Business Days | $2,400 – $3,600 USD |
What Determines Your Specific Estimate
Because application architectures and onboarding complexity vary significantly, we tailor final quotes based on several concrete technical factors:
- Client Platform Diversity: Audits covering a single web application require less intake and network trace verification than multi-platform applications spanning Web, iOS, and Android clients.
- Onboarding Sequence Depth: A straightforward 3-step registration flow differs significantly from enterprise flows with multi-tenant organization setup, team permission management, and complex third-party integrations.
- Current Telemetry Footprint: Applications with existing, undocumented legacy event schemas require additional discovery and reconciliation work compared to clean greenfield implementations.
- Data Privacy & Governance Constraints: Projects requiring specialized compliance handling under Thailand’s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) or European GDPR standards.
Structured Retainer Advisory Option
For engineering and product teams undergoing continuous onboarding iteration or multi-quarter product overhauls, we offer a limited number of advisory retainer slots:
- Quarterly Telemetry Governance: 15 dedicated advisory hours per month for event schema review, telemetry QA oversight, and monthly funnel progression reviews.
- Investment: $2,200 USD / month (minimum 3-month commitment).
Transparent Commercial Terms
- Payment Terms: Standard project engagements require a 50% initial deposit upon scheduling and scope confirmation, with the remaining 50% due upon delivery of final documentation and technical debrief.
- Currency & Invoicing: Invoices can be issued in USD or Thai Baht (THB) directly from Toolkit Work Co., Ltd. in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand.
- Informational Notice: All rates listed on this page are informational guidelines. We provide a formal written scope and binding fee schedule following our initial technical intake call.
