Commercials
First to Value
Pay true dollar
for each V delivered.
Four Vs. Four commercial models. Every V is independently valuable, and every V is optional — there is no requirement to buy the next one.
V → Discovery
Value Discovered
Fixed price
V → Design
Value Designed
Fixed price
V → Build & Deploy
Value Created
Minimal risk-mitigation fee + balance on delivered outcome
V → Optimize
Value Optimized
Fixed annual price
Act I
One V at a time
Buy Discovery and stop. Take Design elsewhere to build. Ask FirstVal to Build and Deploy it. Or keep FirstVal continuously optimizing it.
01 — What Each V Buys
Each V is priced for what it delivers.
Select a V to see what changes hands, how it is priced, and where the risk sits.
Value Created
Build and deploy the intervention into production, instrumented against the agreed baseline.
- Agents and redesigned process live in production
- Instrumentation against the pre-signed baseline
- Adoption, integration and sustain gates managed by us
- Balance invoiced only when the outcome is verified
Commercial model
Minimal risk-mitigation fee + balance on delivered outcome
Majority of the fee sits at risk until the specified outcome is delivered.
02 — The Build & Deploy Example
Most of the fee waits
for the outcome.
A minimal risk-mitigation payment starts the build. The balance is payable only when the specified value outcome is delivered. Move the inputs to see the split.
At-risk balance = build price − risk-mitigation payment
= $300K − $75K = $225K
Build price
$300K
The full price of building and deploying the intervention.
Risk-mitigation payment
$75K
Payable at mobilization. Covers the cost of standing up the squad.
At-risk balance
$225K
Payable only when the specified value outcome is delivered and verified.
75% of our fee depends on your result
03 — The Rules
Measure your value system.
Every V is optional
Stop after any V. Take the output to another partner. Nothing is bundled to force the next purchase.
Value is measured after go-live
Against a baseline both sides signed before work started — not against a proposal forecast.
Risk shifts along the line
Fixed at Discovery and Design, mostly at-risk at Build & Deploy, predictable at Optimize.
We manage the leakage
Because we are paid on value that arrives, adoption, integration and sustain gates are ours to run.
04 — Begin
Start with one V.
Decide the rest later.
Discovery is fixed price and independently valuable. If the dollar is not there, you will know in weeks — and you will owe nothing further.
