Krusty Planet Pricing Proposal — April 2026

Business Context

Krusty Planet is a new AI consulting business focused on self-hosted agent deployment (OpenClaw, Ollama). Primary goal is acquisition and reputation building, not maximizing revenue per client. Pricing can increase later once grassroots is established.

Target customer: Small businesses, solo operators, privacy-conscious organizations looking to run AI agents on their own hardware.

Competitive Landscape

Enterprise AI consulting: $150-400/hr (Accenture, Deloitte, etc.)
Freelance AI/LLM developers: $75-200/hr (Upwork, Toptal)
Open-source consultants: $50-150/hr (general market)
Self-hosting specialists: Niche, few direct competitors

Positioning: Below enterprise, competitive with freelance, credible for the niche. $50/hr signals "real professional" not "cheap clown."

Proposed Pricing

Three Tiers

Tier	Price	Includes
Starter Kit	$150 one-time	Pre-configured agent deployment, 3 catalog skills, maintenance guide, 30-day email support
Custom Build	$500 one-time	Custom skills (up to 3), multi-agent setup (2-3 agents), 1 tool/API integration, documentation + walkthrough call, 60-day support
Monthly Support	$300/month	Up to 10 hours of work, agent health monitoring, 4hr critical response SLA, 24hr standard response, cancel anytime

Hourly (footnote)

$50/hr, billed in 15-minute increments. For clients who need something smaller than a package.

Additional Details

Starter Kit includes actual deployment service (not just a guide)
Maintenance guide covers common tasks, updates, troubleshooting
Monthly Support additional hours beyond 10/month: $50/hr
Sliding scale available for those who need it
Monero (XMR) accepted
I2P darknet available for maximum privacy

Design Decisions

Three tiers only — Confused customers don't convert. Simple and scannable.
Monthly Support at $300/10hrs ($30/hr effective) — Aggressive value proposition to drive recurring revenue and long-term relationships. Most clients won't use all 10 hours.
Hourly as footnote, not a card — Keeps focus on packages. Hourly is a fallback, not the main offer.
No async/sync split on the page — That's contract language. First clients are about building reputation, not optimizing utilization.
Starter Kit includes deployment — Tangible deliverable, not just documentation. Client gets a working system.
All pricing rounded to clean numbers — $150, $300, $500. Easy to remember.

Competitor Price Comparison

Service Type	Market Range	Krusty Planet
AI agent deployment	$200-2000+	$150 (Starter) or $500 (Custom)
Ongoing support/retainer	$500-5000/mo	$300/mo
Hourly consulting	$75-400/hr	$50/hr

Krusty Planet sits at the accessible end of the market without undercutting credibility.
