Turn the service you deliver by hand into a product.
For consultancies and specialist firms with a method that works, and revenue limited by the hours their experts can bill.
Signs it could work
- Every client gets the same structure: an assessment, a calculation, a report.
- Spreadsheets and templates already do much of the work.
- Smaller clients want the result but can't afford a full engagement.
- Your experts spend hours on set-up and formatting that software could do.
Deciding what becomes software
Not every part of a service should be automated. The judgement, the difficult conversations and the advice usually stay with your experts. The repeatable parts are the ones to build: collecting answers, scoring them, producing a report, tracking progress over time.
We work through your method with you and agree which parts a customer can do alone, and where they should hand over to a person. That split shapes the product and how you charge for it.
What we build
The method is stored as data, separate from the code, so you can update questions, weightings and guidance without a rebuild. Around it we build what a subscription product needs: sign-up, customer accounts kept apart from each other, plans and billing, reports, and the hosting it runs on.
Work we have done
CyberCure assesses organisations against the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. The work ran in spreadsheets, so each assessment meant rebuilding the same structure and assembling the report by hand. We built NistCheck around their method.
It is live at nistcheck.com, with a free tier for a single assessment and paid plans for teams. Customers track their progress over time and compare their results with peers in their industry and region.

The first release
A defined build with an agreed budget, timeframe and acceptance criteria.
Running it
Monthly support and development after launch, so you don't need to hire engineers to keep the product going.
Questions
Who owns the product?
You do: the code, the cloud accounts and the intellectual property. Your method stays yours.
We don't know whether customers will pay. Where do we start?
With the smallest version a few existing clients would use, charged for from the start if you can. How they use it shows what to build next.
Do we need technical staff?
No. We can look after the product each month. If you hire engineers later, we hand it over with a walkthrough.
