AlgonixA fortnight, one workflow, one number
An Algonix pilot is two weeks long, covers one workflow, and runs on read-only access to the systems that workflow touches. The fee is fixed and agreed in writing before anything is connected, the access can be revoked at any point, and at the end the measured number is handed over whichever way it falls.
We look from the outside
We read what is already public: your site, your listings, your ordering channels, the tools your pages give away. Nothing is asked of you at this stage, and we do not contact your staff or your suppliers.
You get a one-page proposal
We write one page about your venue and send it. It names one leak, one number we think we can move, and how we would go about it. It arrives within 3 working days of your request. There is no deck and no call attached to it.
A two-week read-only pilot
If the page is worth acting on, we agree a fortnight in writing: one workflow, read-only access, a fixed fee, a start date and a stop date. You can pause it or pull the access at any point without a conversation.
We hand you the number
At the end we hand you what actually happened, measured against where you started. If the number is not there, we say so. You keep the system or we switch it off.
What does read-only mean?
It means we can look and we cannot touch. Nothing in your setup changes during the fortnight, nobody on your team learns a new tool, and no customer notices anything different. If we need something we cannot read, we ask you for the answer rather than for the keys.
What we access
- Read-only links to the systems that specific workflow touches — usually an ordering channel, an invoice inbox, or a till export.
- The smallest scope that answers the question. If a wedge needs one feed, we ask for one feed.
- Access you grant, and can revoke yourself, from inside your own tools.
What we never access
- Write access, admin rights, or the ability to change anything in your systems.
- Anything to do with your staff’s pay, contracts, or personal records.
- A parallel copy of your customer list for our own marketing, or your customers’ data used to train public models.
- Anything at all after you switch us off — we delete what we hold.
You are the controller of your customers’ data; we are a processor, only for what the agreed workflow needs. A data-processing agreement is available before anything goes live — read the summary or ask us for the signed document at umerzia@algonix-dev.com.
What it costs
The pilot is a small fixed fee, agreed in writing before we start.
If you keep the system, it moves to a simple monthly service — typically a small bundle, run for you — agreed at the end of the pilot. No contract, cancel monthly.
We would rather quote you a real number than a range you have to negotiate down from, so the fee comes with the proposal, once we know which workflow we are running. It is agreed in writing before a single system is connected.
We take on a small number of pilots at a time. If we are full we will tell you when the next start date is, rather than starting something we cannot give attention to.
What you keep
If the number’s there, the pilot becomes a simple monthly service — run for you, not handed over. Most venues keep a small bundle:
Your week, in one place.
A plain-English read every Monday: takings, busiest hours, what moved.
Reviews, answered.
On-brand replies drafted for a one-tap yes; anything sensitive flagged to you.
A social presence that keeps itself alive.
Posts in your voice, planned and scheduled.
One thing that’s yours.
Whatever your biggest time-drain turns out to be, we take one more off your plate.
One monthly rate, agreed at the end of the pilot. No contract, cancel any month.
Later, if you want it, an AI phone or receptionist can sit on the same stack. It is not the offer, and your customers never have to speak to it.
How it grows
The first win is often a one-time jump. What we run after is what keeps paying.
A quick, visible win
We install one boring automation and prove it in a fortnight.
The operations layer
Once there’s real volume, we go deeper — your invoices, your costs, your sales history. This is the part that stays.
The compounding work
The first win is often a one-time jump. What we run after — reviews, repeat custom, cost control — is what keeps paying.
Fair questions about the fortnight
What does read-only actually mean?
Read-only means Algonix can look and cannot touch. Nothing in the venue’s setup changes during the fortnight, nobody on the team learns a new tool, and no customer notices anything different. Where something cannot be read, the answer is asked for rather than the keys.
How long does a pilot take?
Two weeks, on one workflow, with a start date and a stop date agreed in writing before anything is connected. The fortnight is deliberately short: it is long enough to measure one number and short enough that saying yes costs a venue almost nothing.
What happens if the number isn’t there?
Algonix says so, and the system is switched off. The pilot measures one number against where the venue started, and the result is handed over whichever way it falls. Nothing beyond the agreed pilot fee is owed, and there is no contract to leave.
Can we stop partway through?
Yes, at any point and without a conversation. The access is granted from inside the venue’s own tools, so it can be revoked from there too. A pilot can also simply be paused and picked up later.
Who owns what you build?
The venue does. Anything built runs on the venue’s own accounts and tools, so if the engagement ends it keeps working and the venue keeps it. There is no lock-in and nothing to hand back.
Can you run more than one thing?
Yes — most venues keep a small monthly bundle: the weekly read, review replies, social, and one job that’s yours. We start with one, prove it, then add only what earns its place.
What happens to our customers’ data?
It stays in the systems the venue already uses. Algonix is a processor and only for the personal data the agreed workflow needs, a data-processing agreement is available before anything is connected, and what Algonix holds is deleted when the engagement ends. Customer data is never used to train public models and is never sold.
Start with the page, not the pilot. We research your venue from the outside and send you the proposal — you decide from there.
