How to engage

Commission a work. We stay.

A Luxor commission is a single body of work — a website, an internal tool, a piece of customer-facing software — built end-to-end through the five phases, with you in the conversation at every gate. AI agents accelerate the implementation under named human direction.

After we ship, we stay in the loop. Messages become iterations. New features land in days, not quarters. The studio becomes part of how the work continues to live.

Fixed fee for the first commission, quoted up front. After cartouche, a monthly retainer sized to how often you want to ship.

A good fit if

  • You will personally use the work, or sign for it.
  • You want AI to accelerate the build under human direction — not replace the people responsible.
  • You want to send a message and see a working change, not file a ticket and wait for a sprint.
  • A studio that stays in your work matters more than the lowest hourly rate.

Not a fit if

  • You want a vendor you can fire on launch day.
  • You want procurement-led RFPs where price is the only deciding factor.
  • Your decisions get filtered through three layers of project management.
  • You want a big-bang delivery with no further conversation.

How the first commission runs

  1. 1.A thirty-minute call. We listen to what you want and what is in the way.
  2. 2.A short proposal: brief, scope, fixed fee, target dates.
  3. 3.You sign the brief. We begin the canon phase.
  4. 4.Phase by phase, working iterations land on your stack. You sign each gate.
  5. 5.Cartouche — the signed release. The conversation continues; the next iteration is a message away.
