01Engagement models

Three ways to begin.

We don’t publish pricing — scope varies too much for a rate card. We do publish how engagements are structured.

Per-Project Search

Fixed-scope engagement with a defined deliverable. Quote after a brief scoping call. No retainer required.

Most common for first-time clients and discrete searches.

3–15 business days depending on service

Retainer / Subscription

Monthly or quarterly retainer for ongoing search support. Volume-based pricing, priority turnaround, and a dedicated analyst contact.

Suited to law firms and in-house teams with consistent search volume.

Priority scheduling for retainer clients

AI Output Validation Only

Send us the results produced by your AI tool. We independently assess what is reliable, what is weak and what appears to be missing — no prior relationship required.

If you proceed with a comprehensive manual search on the same matter, the validation fee paid is credited in full against the search cost.

3–5 business days
02Scope the requirement

Tell us about the search.

No product menus. Describe the decision, technology and timing in your own words.

Confidential inquiry

Nothing you share in this form is disclosed to third parties.

NDA before materials

A mutual NDA is signed before project materials are reviewed.

Response in one business day

Typically the same day; urgent matters can be emailed directly.

No obligation

The first conversation is for scoping; no commitment is required.
