How We Work

From Conversation to
Working Automation

Four stages. Clear deliverables at each. No black boxes, no surprises, and no "we'll figure it out as we go." Here is exactly what happens when you hire Intigr8.

The Four Stages

A Defined Process for Every Engagement

1
Stage One

Discovery

We start by understanding how your business actually runs, not how it's supposed to run on paper. We interview the people doing the work, map the processes step by step, and identify every place where time is being spent on repetitive tasks.

This stage ends with a process map of your current operations and a ranked list of automation opportunities, sorted by time savings and implementation complexity.

What Happens in Discovery

30-60 minute kickoff call with key team members
Written documentation of your current processes
Time and cost analysis for each manual process
Ranked list of automation opportunities with estimated ROI
Recommended scope and delivery timeline

Typical duration: 1 week

2
Stage Two

Strategy

Discovery findings become a concrete plan. We design the architecture for every automation: which tools will be used, how the systems connect, what the logic looks like, and how edge cases are handled.

You review and approve the design before a single line of code is written. No surprises later because everything was agreed on up front.

What Happens in Strategy

Architecture diagram for every automation
List of all systems and APIs being connected
Data handling and security review
Written scope of work with defined deliverables
Client approval before build phase begins

Typical duration: 3-5 business days

3
Stage Three

Build

We build and test every automation against real scenarios from your business. Not synthetic test data, but the actual edge cases and exceptions your team deals with every day.

You receive regular check-ins throughout the build, not a black box that appears six weeks later. We demo progress and incorporate feedback before final launch.

What Happens During Build

Development in weekly sprints with progress updates
Testing with real business scenarios, not test data
Mid-build demo call for feedback and adjustments
User acceptance testing with your team
Staged rollout — tested before going fully live

Typical duration: 2-6 weeks depending on scope

4
Stage Four

Grow

Launch is not the end. Every automation is monitored in its first weeks to catch any unexpected edge cases. We document everything and train your team so they understand what was built and how to maintain it.

Clients who continue with maintenance retainers or additional projects get a 60-day performance review to identify the next highest-ROI opportunity.

What Happens After Launch

Active monitoring during the first 30 days
Full documentation of every workflow and agent
Training session for your team
60-day performance review and optimization report
Optional retainer for ongoing improvements

Support window: 30-90 days post-launch

Questions About Working With Us

Process FAQ

How involved does my team need to be?

Most of the work happens on our end. Your team's biggest commitment is the discovery stage, typically 1-2 hours of interviews. After that, we handle the build and only pull you in for demos, approvals, and the final handoff training.

What if requirements change mid-project?

Minor adjustments are absorbed within the existing scope. If requirements change significantly, we document the new scope, adjust the timeline and cost if needed, and get your sign-off before proceeding. No surprise bills.

Do you work with businesses outside Tampa Bay?

Yes. The majority of our work is done remotely. We serve clients across the US. Discovery and check-in calls are conducted over video, and we share screens for demos and training.

What tools do you build with?

We use the right tool for each project: n8n, Make, Zapier, custom Node.js or Python code, OpenAI APIs, Anthropic, and a range of other AI and automation platforms. We are not tied to a single vendor.

How quickly can you start?

Once a scope is agreed, we typically begin within 1-2 weeks. For urgent projects, contact us directly at info@intigr8.com to discuss availability.

The First Step Costs Nothing

Discovery starts with a free 30-minute call. You'll leave with a clear picture of what automation could do for your business and what it would cost.
