About us

001

Bandicoot is an AI and ownership consultancy. We inventory the software you rent, rebuild what you actually need on your own accounts, and hand it over.

Hong Kong first, then Singapore and Australia. The client keeps the code, the database and the accounts — and we say in writing what happens when they stop paying us.

Material

The standard

Three tests, not adjectives: the kill test, the stranger test and the handover test. A system that fails one is not finished.

Material

The terms

Two weeks, a fixed fee, and a ranked list you keep whether or not you use us. There is no subscription to us.

The features

002

Tools that
outlive the vendor.

Every service starts with the same two-week diagnostic and ends with something running on your accounts. Start with the one costing you the most hours, not the one that sounds most like AI.

01 / Audit

The stack audit

You cannot stop renting what you cannot see.

We count every subscription, seat and renewal, follow where the data lives and who can reach it, and time the work people do between systems. It is the first half of the diagnostic, and the half most companies have never done.

02 / Automation

Back-office automation

Part of someone’s week is copying between two tabs.

Invoices, email, documents and calls are read, matched and written into the CRM, accounting and ticketing systems you already own. One exception queue is left for a person, with the reason attached.

03 / Ownership

The handover

Delete us and wait thirty days.

Code in your repository, data in your database, credentials in your accounts. The README is written for a developer who has never met us, and the care plan is optional. If it stops when you stop paying us, it was never yours.

The benefits

004

Three things have to be
true before we call it delivered.

The work is judged on what remains when we are gone, not on what we presented. These are the three conditions, in the order the diagnostic tests them.

Read the standard
(Strategy)01

Inventory the stack

We count every subscription, seat and renewal, follow where the data lives and who can reach it, and time the work people do between systems. You cannot stop renting what you cannot see, and the bill is usually the smallest part of the cost.

(Development)02

Build it on your accounts

The tool is written into your repository and runs in your database, with your credentials. We do not keep a private runtime that switches the work off when you switch us off. The model writes code and explains it; scripts fetch, transform and validate the numbers.

(Deployment)03

Hand over, then leave

Documentation a stranger can follow, a runbook for the failures, and a care plan that is optional. We delete our access and wait thirty days. If the report still arrives and the logins still work, the handover was real.

No client quote has
been cleared yet.

The carousel works; the words are missing. When a client gives written permission, the placeholder is replaced and the section stays. Until then, the three ownership tests are the only proof on this page.

The process

007

From a rented stack
to a system you own.

Get started
01

Discovery

  • Research
  • Analysis
  • Timing

Week one. We sit with the people who run the close, the invoice queue and the inbox. We count subscriptions and seats, follow where the records live and who can reach them, and time the work rather than asking how long it takes.

02

Strategy

  • Ranking
  • Cost
  • Saving

Week two. The inventory becomes a shortlist: what to replace first, what owning it costs, what it saves, and what stays broken if you leave it. Every figure carries its arithmetic, so you can challenge it line by line.

03

Development

  • Repository
  • Accounts
  • Integration

The chosen service is built in your repository and against your systems of record. There is no model in the data path: scripts fetch, transform and validate, and the exception queue is designed for the person who will actually work it.

04

Deployment

  • Documentation
  • Handover
  • Exit

It goes live on your accounts, documented for a stranger. We stay long enough to prove the kill test and to train the team, then the care plan is yours to take or leave. Nothing switches off when you leave.

Pricing

009

Fixed fee, fixed length.
Never a subscription.

Two ways to buy the work, and one optional way to keep it running. No dollar figure is published here because no price has been quoted for your company yet — the toggle shows the basis, not a number we have invented.

Know what you have before you buy anything.

2 weeksOne-off only

Fixed fee, paid once. Agreed before we start.The diagnostic is never a subscription. Two weeks and done, whatever you decide afterwards.

Book the two-week diagnostic
  • The stack inventory
  • Owners and renewal dates
  • A data map, source by source
  • The close and planning cycle, timed
  • A ranked list of replacements
  • Cost and saving against each item
  • The arithmetic, so you can challenge it
  • Yours whether or not you proceed

How the two bases differ

One-off is the only way to buy the work: a fixed fee for the diagnostic, a fixed fee for the project, quoted after the diagnostic and never before. Monthly exists only for the optional care plan. Stop paying it and the system keeps running, because it runs on your accounts.

The rule

No model
in the data path.

A wrong number needs a line of code behind it, not a prompt. Scripts fetch, transform and validate every figure. The model writes the code and explains it; it does not compute the number that reaches your board pack.

Two weeks · fixed fee

Two weeks to know
what you actually have.

A fixed-fee diagnostic: the stack, the data and the cycle times, with a ranked list of what to fix first and the arithmetic behind every figure. You keep the document whether or not you use us.

Before you book

Frequentlyaskedquestions.

Five things buyers ask before the diagnostic. If yours is not here, the answer is probably in the funnel notes.

Ask something else
01How long does the diagnostic take?

Two weeks, fixed fee. Week one measures the stack, the data and the cycle times. Week two turns that into a ranked list with a cost and a saving against each item.

02What do I keep if I do not proceed?

The map. The stack inventory, the data map, the timed close, the ranked list and the arithmetic behind every figure. It is yours either way, and we say so in writing before we start.

03Do we own the software you build?

Yes. Code in your repository, data in your database, credentials in your accounts. We delete our access and wait thirty days; if everything still runs, it was yours.

04Do you put a model in the data path?

No. Scripts fetch, transform and validate the numbers. The model writes code and explains it, so a wrong figure has a line of code behind it rather than a prompt.

05What does it cost?

The diagnostic is a fixed fee agreed before we start, quoted per company because twenty subscriptions and two hundred are different jobs. The project is quoted after the diagnostic, never before. The care plan is optional and the system runs without it.
