Services & pricing

Clear offers, published prices

Most automation projects fail because the process was never clearly understood. FutureWave starts with the workflow: what happens today, where time is lost, what should be automated, and what should stay human.

How pricing works

Fixed scope.
Fixed price

You know the scope and the price before any work starts. The ranges below are signposts, and your audit produces the exact figure for your build. Timelines are typical ranges too, counted from kickoff once the scope is agreed and the access the build needs is in hand. In practice that means fewer missed leads, fewer reports rebuilt by hand, and fewer copy-paste mistakes between tools.

Five ways to engage

Choose the right level of help

Each offer has a clear purpose, a defined starting point, and a direct route to the detail you need.

Automation Audit

$500Credited in full toward your build · delivered in 5 business days

A structured 90-minute working call and a written map of your process. We find the pain points, list the automation opportunities, recommend the first workflow worth building, suggest the tools, and give you a rough estimate. When it fits, you get a fixed-price proposal. The document is yours either way: build it with us, take the plan elsewhere, or sit on it until the timing is right.

Who this is for

Not every process is ready to automate

Good fitThe process is real and accessible
  • Repetitive workflows run through spreadsheets, email, forms, or a CRM
  • Manual follow-up, reporting, intake, or content operations
  • Disconnected tools that do not talk to each other
  • You can give access to the real process so we can map it
Not a good fitNothing concrete to scope yet
  • Open-ended hourly experiments with no defined scope
  • Vague AI strategy without a specific process to improve
  • Automation without access to how the work actually happens
