Founding Clients · Limited to First 5

AI strategy & transformation,
built for mid-market.

vixxiv works with mid-market businesses ($2M–$50M revenue) to build AI capability that produces measurable outcomes — not pilots that quietly die. Founding Clients pricing offers 65–80% off standard rates for the first five clients in each tier, in exchange for honest case studies.

Four Tiers · One Engagement Path

Start where the pain is. Scale from there.

Each tier funnels to the next. Most clients begin with an Audit, expand to a Sprint, and convert into an ongoing engagement once outcomes prove out.

The Founding Clients Bargain

Why we're doing this.

vixxiv is launching publicly. The first five clients in each tier get extreme pricing because their case studies — not their fees — are what we're really being paid in.

01 / Honest Pricing Logic

You pay 20–35% of what later clients will.

Standard rates apply to every engagement after slot five. Founding Clients rates are not negotiable, not extendable, and not reissued.

02 / What We Need In Return

Honest, on-the-record outcomes.

Written testimonial. Recorded case study. Permission to use your name and metrics in our marketing. If we don't earn the testimonial, you don't owe one.

03 / Scarcity Is Real

20 slots total. First-paid, first-claimed.

Slot count updates as deposits clear. When zero slots remain in a tier, that tier closes at Founding Clients pricing — permanently.

The Market In Numbers

Mid-market AI spending is doubling in 2026.

95% of AI pilots fail. Only 1% of organizations are genuinely AI-mature. The companies that get this right in the next 12 months will compound a structural advantage; the ones that don't will spend the next five years trying to catch up.

vixxiv exists for the businesses that have decided they're going to be in the first group.
