Protocol Inquiries.
Why is the stack diagnostic completely free?
The diagnostic acts as an objective baseline. We earn affiliate commissions when you deploy managed cloud tools through our external links — but only if the infrastructure genuinely fits your stack. The audit's strict objectivity is the core driver of our conversion mechanism. Charging for it would misalign our incentives.
Can vendors pay to artificially inflate their ranking?
Absolutely not. Every single BizOps Score is computed deterministically from public GitHub telemetry. A vendor with zero open-source presence mathematically scores zero. We enforce this iron-wall policy across all directory hubs.
What does a Custom Deployment Blueprint include?
A senior engineer reviews your current architecture, selects optimal open-source replacements, and produces a validated Docker Compose deployment package containing all required environment configurations. We also write the necessary data migration scripts and deliver a full cutover runbook for your internal team to execute.
What is the standard engagement scope and cost?
Most engagements fall between $3,000 and $10,000 depending on your stack's complexity and the volume of nodes being replaced. We scope every project during a 30-minute briefing before issuing a fixed-price proposal. There are no retainers, no ongoing seat licenses, and no upsells. You pay once for an asset your company permanently owns.
