Pricing + Investment.
Clear structures for funding structural work.
Operational work doesn’t price well by the hour.
Most operational problems aren't solved with advice. They’re solved by designing, implementing, and stabilizing systems.
That kind of work doesn’t happen in neat hourly increments.
Instead of billing hours, engagements are scoped around the level of clarity and structural support required. Some situations need a map. Some need a system built. Some need ongoing maintenance.
Where the work goes.
Every engagement funds five things:
5% — taxes
10% — debt obligations
35% — core operations
40% — build time
10% — research and reinvestment
This isn't inflated pricing. You're not funding overhead theater. It's structurally honest pricing.
You're funding the actual work.
Typical Investment Structures
Choose the right level of support for your needs.
Together, we outline a path forward that’s realistic, strategic, and tailored to your specific needs.
Chaos Toolkit — $75
Best when you need clarity before building anything. You'll leave with a map of the system and a plan for stabilizing it.
Chaos Mapping & Design — $350 – $675
Best when a specific operational system needs to be designed and implemented.
Core Chaos Sprint — $1,775 – $5,775
Best when several systems need to work together and stabilize at once.
Deep Chaos Sprint — $3,775 – $8,775
Best when systems exist but need regular maintenance and iteration.
Chaos Concierge — $475 – $1,275/month
Final scope depends on the complexity of the system being built.
Most engagements begin with a Chaos Mapping & Design session.
How engagements get scoped.
Every engagement starts with an exploratory conversation. We talk about what’s actually happening in your system, the friction you're experiencing, and the level of support that makes sense.
After that conversation, you’ll receive:
• a recommended engagement type
• a clear scope
• the investment required
• the timeline for the work

Step 4A few practical questions we’re frequently asked…
-
No. Operational work rarely resolves well through hourly consulting.
Engagements are scoped to the level of structural work required, so the focus stays on building systems that actually hold.
-
All Chaos Engagements begin with some sort of discovery phase. This process intentionally uncovers which system(s) need to be built and how to design them so they are used effectively.
If the structure is already clear from the initial exploratory conversation, we may recommend diving straight into the building portion of a Chaos Sprint.
-
Yes. Both businesses and households are driven by operational systems. The tools and structures often overlap more than people expect.
-
Operational systems and projects work best when they are customized to fit the needs of the humans existing within them. Our exploratory conversations exist to determine the right level of support before any engagement begins.
-
We offer flexible pricing based on project type and complexity. After an initial conversation, we’ll provide a transparent quote with no hidden costs.
-
Absolutely. Larger engagements can be structured into staged payments aligned with project milestones.
-
Some systems stabilize immediately while others benefit from periodic adjustments. When we wrap up our work together we can discuss if a Chaos Concierge engagement is the right type of support to keep your systems aligned with how your work or household evolves.
