Three tiers.
Two engagement paths.
One operating philosophy.
Most agencies hide pricing because their numbers can't survive scrutiny. We publish ours because the work justifies them. Every Yakini engagement is available as a Custom build or as a Vertical Edition deployment against one of our proven industry patterns.
Every tier includes Yakini Intelligence. The depth scales with the engagement.

Five proven industry patterns.
Deployment, not discovery.
A Vertical Edition is a Yakini engagement deployed against one of our proven industry patterns. The architecture, AI prompt libraries, compliance language, and operational workflows are already built and validated. Vertical Edition pricing reflects the value of deployment-grade infrastructure tuned for your industry.
"Because we've already built the lead intake, the compliance language, and the transaction workflow for your industry. You're not paying for discovery. You're paying for deployment."
Real Estate Services

Professional Services
Client intake, case/matter management, document workflows, billing, secure client portals. For legal, accounting, and consulting practices.
Workforce Development

Custom infrastructure for nonprofits and mission-driven organizations.

- Custom platform built to your mission and operational needs
- Donor management + grant tracking workflows (when applicable)
- Volunteer coordination + program management tools
- Yakini Intelligence layer matched to your engagement scope
- Same architecture quality as commercial tiers

For partners who refer business and earn recurring revenue.
The Strategic Partner Program is for established operators in their industries who want to offer Yakini infrastructure to their networks. Partners receive co-marketing rights, revenue share on deployments through their channel, and advisory input on the vertical templates serving their industry. Founding partner economics apply to the first partner in each vertical and do not repeat.
