WHAT YOU GET

A ranked list with verdicts.

Illustrative page from a roadmap. Every row gets a verdict in writing: build, later, or skip — and a fixed price for anything we’d build.

THE SKIP LIST

The most valuable line on the roadmap is “don’t.”

Illustrative verdicts — the kind the roadmap gives when the honest answer is no.

> skip list · what we’d tell you not to build

  1. “automate our proposals with AI”

    → skip:

    your proposals are the sale; keep a human on them ✗

  2. “a chatbot on the homepage”

    → later:

    fix lead response first, it pays faster

  3. “sync tool A with tool B”

    → skip:

    a $30 Zap does it; we wrote the recipe down for you ✗

  4. “replace the office manager”

    → skip:

    automate her Fridays instead

  5. “AI for everything”

    → later:

    one workflow, measured, then the next

> paid the same either way, so you get the honest pick

A NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER

Portrait of Nick Hayghe, founder of Tooliva

Nick Hayghe

Founder, Tooliva

Most AI agencies sell you their favorite tool. I’m tool-agnostic — I get paid the same whether your answer is n8n, Make, or custom code, so you get the honest answer. And if the honest answer is “don’t automate that yet,” you’ll hear that too.

  • Every build is fixed-price, agreed in writing. No meter running.
  • You own the systems, the docs, and the credentials. Forever.
  • If we can’t explain it without jargon, we don’t sell it.

HOW IT WORKS

The roadmap is steps one and two of every build.

Audit and blueprint are the roadmap. Build and hand over only happen if the roadmap says they should.

  1. 01

    Audit

    Week 1

    We sit with your team, map how work actually moves through your business, and find where the hours leak out.

  2. 02

    Blueprint

    Week 1–2

    You get a ranked plan: what to automate first, what it returns, what it costs — and what isn’t worth building. Yours to keep, even if you walk.

  3. 03

    Build

    Weeks 2–4

    Fixed price, agreed in writing before we start. Built and tested on your real data before anything touches your customers.

  4. 04

    Hand over

    Week 4+

    Full documentation, a training session for your team, and 30 days of tuning included. Then it’s yours — no dependency on us.

PRICING

$499, flat. Credited to any build.

The roadmap is the only thing we charge for before a build. If you build with us, it comes off the invoice. If you don’t, you keep it.

OBJECTIONS, ANSWERED

What owners ask before the roadmap.

The free 30-minute call scopes your single highest-ROI opportunity and tells you straight whether automation is the right answer. The $499 session is 90 minutes of working time: we map every workflow and system, rank the opportunities by payback, and send you the roadmap, the skip list and a fixed-price quote in writing. The $499 is credited in full to any build.

Then that’s the roadmap, and it’s the cheapest $499 you’ll spend. We’re paid the same whether you build or not, so there’s no reason for us to invent a project.

Yes — bring it to the session. We’ll tell you what it would actually cost to run, where the lock-in is, and whether a simpler build gets you the same result. We take no commissions from software vendors.

No. The roadmap is yours either way, written so any competent builder can price from it. If you do build with us, the $499 comes off the invoice.

90 minutes with you and whoever runs the work day to day, plus a few minutes of prep. Then we need about five days to write it up properly.

Hours a task eats every week, times what those hours cost, against what the build would cost and how long it takes to pay back. Anything that won’t pay for itself inside 12 months goes on the skip list, in writing.

READY WHEN YOU ARE

Tell us which task your team hates most. We’ll tell you what it costs to never do it again.

A free 30-minute call — not a sales pitch. We’ll scope your highest-ROI opportunity and tell you straight whether automation is even the right answer. Want the full mapped roadmap after that? It's a fixed $499, credited to any build.

  • No commitment — the roadmap is yours either way
