Starting at $1,350.

Founder-gated white-glove for custom GCs and high-value trades. Founding range $1,350–$1,750. Free setup on one live job for up to 3 weeks. Then you choose month one at $1,350 or we part ways.

Setup on us

Free

up to 3 weeks. We stand up your inbox, meet your point person, and run real forwarded mail.

  • You forward project email from one live job, plus one revision of that same set
  • We send cited control briefs back. We never send as your company
  • We iterate with your team until the workflow is clear

After the walkthrough

$1,350

Live demo on your job. Then your choice: start month one, or stop with no invoice.

  • No charge before you have seen it work on your mail
  • Month one covers one live job, plus one revision of that same set; more jobs that month as they arrive if you stay
  • White-glove. Founder-gated. Quoted in the founding range

Founding range

$1,350–$1,750

Founder-gated white-glove. About 8 completed jobs per month. Extra jobs are quoted. Not unlimited.

  • Quote coverage, change briefs, cited answers, and unsent RFI drafts
  • We run the helper. You do not operate a dashboard
  • Still your review before a client or vendor is emailed

Turnaround

Cited reply with PDF/XLSX in 2 business days after a complete file set. If files are missing, the clock pauses.

Quantities

Counts stay PRELIMINARY until your estimator confirms them.

Sending mail

VGML does not send mail to your clients or vendors. Drafts stay in the thread.

Custom shop workflows

A later scoped build. Not inside the $1,350 first month.

What you are buying

Hybrid on purpose.

Agency care. Software underneath. The customer product is the reply.

  • Not seats. A helper we run.

    You are not buying logins. We stand up the inbox, do the desk work, and keep it working.

  • Software underneath. White-glove on top.

    The machinery is ours. The product you see is the cited reply in email.

  • Setup first. Pay after the walkthrough.

    We prove it on your live job during up to 3 weeks. Month one at $1,350 starts only if you want to continue. Founding range $1,350–$1,750.

In the work

Four packets. That is the core job.

Quote coverage

RTU-2 is on M-201. The quote has no matching line.

Change briefs

Controls moved to the GC. No cost figure is stated.

Cited answers

Yes. Addendum 02 §3.4 assigns controls to the GC.

RFI drafts

Confirm RTU-2 with the vendor. The draft stays unsent.

After the core job works

A workflow for your shop.

If a recurring desk job is not coverage, briefs, answers, or drafts, we can stand up a bounded workflow. Priced as a scoped build. Not inside $1,350.

  • You own the result. We own the process.

    You name the repeating job. We stand up how it runs in email. Your files and findings stay yours.

  • If we later ship it more widely

    The shop that commissioned it keeps it in their retainer while they stay. No extra fee if it is cheap to run. A reduced rate if it is not.

  • Not a custom AI shop

    We take recurring construction desk work. We do not build chatbots, websites, or one-off research.

First 6 shops

Bring us one project.

Short kickoff around one live job. Free setup for up to 3 weeks: we stand up the inbox, run cited briefs on your forwarded mail, and walk your team through it. After that, month one is $1,350 only if you want to continue.
