Every phase is a standalone engagement. Start anywhere. Move at your pace.

Phase 01

Discover

Audit readiness. Identify the workflow with the fastest payback.

Free · 30 min
Phase 02

Design

Workflow map. Tool stack. ROI model. Implementation brief.

1 week · from $1,490
Phase 03

Deploy

Build, integrate, test, ship. Your stack, your data, your ownership.

1–2 weeks · scoped per build
Phase 04

Run

Monitor. Optimise. Control costs. Keep accuracy where it needs to be.

Ongoing · optional

The principles behind every build.

Three non-negotiables we apply on every engagement. Non-negotiable because they're the reason our builds ship and stay shipped.

Rent the engine.
Own the car.

The intelligence is rented from the best model vendor. The orchestration lives on your infrastructure, portable and yours.

One workflow
at a time.

Ship one. Measure it in dollars. Prove it works. Only then design the next one. Scale inflates cost faster than benefit.

No build without
a designed ROI.

Every build is modelled against a real baseline first. No ROI, no build — because a build without a number is a hope, not a plan.

How much the agent decides for itself.

Every workflow we design operates at a defined autonomy level. You choose how much independence the agent has, and that choice is enforced in code — not in policy.

L1

Assist

Human decides. AI helps.

L2

Suggest

AI proposes. Human approves.

L3

Act with Review

AI acts. Human signs off first.

L4

Act with Override

AI acts. Human can pause or reverse.

L5

Full Autonomy

AI acts independently. Audit trail only.

Most mid-market agents start at L2 or L3 and move up as trust is earned. We design the level with you, upfront, against the risk profile of the workflow.

Six controls. Built in, not bolted on.

Every agent we ship includes all six. Not an upsell. Not a compliance tier. The default.

Audit Trail

Every agent action logged, timestamped, reproducible.

Human in the Loop

Clear escalation points at every risk threshold.

Guardrails

Content, action, and scope boundaries enforced in code.

Access Control

Role-based permissions, credentials, data scope.

Monitoring

Accuracy, cost, and drift tracked continuously.

Kill Switch

One action pauses the workflow. No panic required.

Built for the whitespace.

We built Agentic Orbit® because no structured readiness-to-revenue methodology existed in the AI agent agency space for mid-market businesses. Most methodologies stop at strategy. Ours continues through build, deployment, and ongoing operation — with autonomy levels and governance built in from day one.

Frequently asked

What is Agentic Orbit®?

Agentic Orbit® is Orbital Agents' proprietary four-phase methodology for AI agent deployment in mid-market businesses. The four phases are Discover, Design, Deploy, and Run. It's the structured readiness-to-revenue path we apply to every engagement.

How is it different from other AI consulting methodologies?

Most AI consulting methodologies stop at strategy decks. Agentic Orbit® continues all the way through build and ongoing operation, with explicit autonomy levels and built-in governance controls designed for mid-market businesses between $1M and $20M in revenue.

Do I have to use all four phases?

No. Each phase is a standalone product. You can start at Discover, at Design, at Deploy, or at Run depending on where your business is today. The methodology flexes to your maturity, not the other way around.

How do I know the agent won't do something I don't want it to?

Every workflow we design operates at a defined autonomy level — L1 Assist through L5 Full Autonomy. Most mid-market agents start at L2 or L3, meaning AI proposes or acts with human sign-off, and move up only as trust is earned. Guardrails and scope boundaries are enforced in code, not in policy.

Who is accountable when the agent makes a mistake?

Every agent we build ships with six governance controls: audit trail, human-in-the-loop escalation, guardrails, access control, monitoring, and a kill switch. Accountability stays with your operations owner, supported by the control layer we install at build time. Nothing we ship is a black box.
