FAQ

Questions
we get
a lot.

Everything you need to know before booking a call. Don't see your question? Email us at info@aplosai.com

Most SMB automations cost between $3,750 and $11,250. We charge a fixed number of hours at $150/hr — you know the exact cost before we start. Simple automations like appointment scheduling start around $3,750. More complex ones like employee onboarding or support bots run $7,500–$11,250. Every quote is fixed in writing before we build anything.

Most automations go live in 2 to 6 weeks. Simpler ones like scheduling or email campaigns take 1–3 weeks. More complex ones like employee onboarding or inventory management take 3–6 weeks. The biggest variable is how many systems we need to connect and how quickly your team can provide feedback during the review phase.

Yes — it's yours outright. Unlike SaaS tools that charge monthly forever, we hand off the automation and you own it. No recurring fees required to keep it running. We offer an optional maintenance retainer if you want us to monitor and update it over time, but it's never mandatory.

It depends on your existing tech stack. We work with Make, n8n, Zapier, and custom code with AI frameworks like OpenAI's API. We choose the right tool for your environment — we never force a platform that doesn't fit what you're already running. That's part of what we figure out on the discovery call.

Zapier is a tool. We're the builders. Zapier handles simple two-step automations — if this happens, do that. Most real business processes involve complex logic, error handling, multiple systems, and AI decision-making that requires custom development. We design, build, test edge cases, and hand off a production-ready automation. Not just a connected Zap.

We focus on small and mid-size businesses — typically 5 to 250 employees. We're not built for solo freelancers or Fortune 500 enterprises. Our sweet spot is growing companies with real operational volume who are outgrowing their manual processes and need something that actually works reliably.

Book a call and tell us about it. If your process is repetitive and rule-based, we can almost certainly automate it. The listed automations are our most common ones — we scope custom processes on the discovery call and give you a fixed quote before anything starts.

It's 30 minutes. We'll walk through your workflow, understand what systems you're using, identify what can be automated, and give you a fixed hour estimate on the call. No vague proposals sent later. No sales pressure. Just a clear scope and a number — then you decide if you want to move forward.
