Ongoing Infrastructure Retainer
$2,500 – $10,000 / month · Maintain, monitor, optimize, and evolve your agent infrastructure as the ecosystem moves around it.
The agent ecosystem changes constantly. Model behaviors shift, standards evolve, new AI sources appear. A retainer is the simple answer to "who's keeping track of all that for us?" — so you can spend your attention on running your business instead.
What's included
Continuous OARS monitoring
Your site and infrastructure scored weekly. Drops, regressions, and new opportunities flagged in your monthly report.
Schema & spec updates
When Schema.org, MCP, or the OARS spec change, your implementation gets updated. You don't have to track it.
Performance optimization
Agent capability index movement, schema quality drift, AI referral trend shifts — actioned, not just reported.
Direct access
Slack or email, same-day response on business days, monthly strategic sync. Same person every time — you won't get bounced between handoffs.
Pricing scales with scope. A single-site retainer with light monitoring runs $2,500/mo. Multi-property businesses with active development needs land at $5,000–$10,000/mo. Retainers usually work best after an implementation engagement, but I'm happy to take over infrastructure someone else built — we'll just start with a one-time audit so I can see what I'm signing up for.
Let's talk about fit
Not every business needs one of these.
If your infrastructure is stable and your priorities are elsewhere, a quarterly check-in might serve you better than a monthly retainer. We can figure out which fits on a quick call — and I'll tell you honestly which one I'd pick if I were you.
I respond personally within 1 business day. No pitch — just a real conversation.
