Pricing

One offer. The whole price, up front.

Ecosystem Core is R3,000 per month plus a once-off R6,000 setup fee, paid in two halves of R3,000: one to start and one at go-live. The monthly fee starts one month after go-live. In the first twelve months that is R42,000 in total, with no VAT added and advertising spend separate. There is no minimum term, and you cancel with 30 days written notice.

Priced against the work you already lose to missed calls and slow replies. Whether it pays for itself depends on your average job value and how many enquiries you miss today. The calculator below uses your numbers.

  1. Step 1

    Pay R3,000 to start

    The first half of the setup fee. Work begins as soon as it clears.

  2. Step 2

    We build it

    Your website, WhatsApp and form intake, and the AI receptionist.

  3. Step 3

    You review and approve

    Nothing goes live until you are happy with it.

  4. Step 4

    Pay R3,000 and go live

    The second half. Then R3,000 a month, starting one month later.

What is included

Everything it takes to answer, book and follow up.

One managed service instead of five tools you have to run yourself. We set it up, run it every month and tell you what it did.

WhatsApp and web chat reply in the language your customer writes in, including Afrikaans and isiZulu. The voice receptionist speaks English. Languages

  • Every enquiry answered

    An AI receptionist replies on WhatsApp and web chat, and answers calls, at any hour. A missed call gets a text back, so the customer is never left wondering.

    How the AI receptionist works
  • One list of job cards

    WhatsApp messages, website forms and missed calls land in one place. Each one is qualified (what, where, when), routed to the right person and followed up, so nothing goes quiet.

  • A fast website that gets enquiries

    Mobile-first and built for South African networks. Every page leads to a call, a WhatsApp or a form, not a dead end.

    About the website
  • Your Google Business Profile, looked after

    Set up properly and kept current: categories, services, areas and hours. Review requests go out after completed jobs, to every customer, not just the happy ones.

    About Google visibility
  • Set up so AI tools can read you correctly

    Answer engine optimisation: accurate business information, service pages, schema and FAQs, so Google and assistants like ChatGPT can understand your business. No assistant can be promised to cite you.

    About AEO
  • A monthly report and a founder who answers

    A plain-language report every month on what came in and what happened to it. Your account is managed directly by the founder.

    About the founder

How it starts

From the first call to the first report.

  1. Step 1

    Free consultation, then a free gap read

    You talk to the founder for 20 minutes about how enquiries reach you today. Afterwards you get a one-page gap read in writing: what he looked at, where enquiries are lost, whether SYSTEM fits. No invoice, no obligation.

  2. Step 2

    Agreement and first R3,000

    You sign the service agreement and pay the first R3,000 of the setup fee through Paystack. We confirm what we need from you: logo, services, areas and account access.

  3. Step 3

    Build and go-live

    Ready for your review within 10 business days of a signed agreement, the first R3,000 of the setup fee cleared and your material. Often sooner. You approve everything before it goes live, then pay the second R3,000 to go live.

  4. Step 4

    Run and report, every month

    R3,000 a month, billed in advance. We run the system, keep it current and send a plain-language report. Leave any time with 30 days notice.

Work you are likely losing

R11,375a month

R136,500 a year, about 3.3 jobs a month.

Ecosystem Core is R3,000 a month. On your numbers it covers itself if it saves 1 job a month. The first month, with the R6,000 setup fee, needs 3.

The sum

15 a week × 4.33 weeks × 20% missed = 13.0 missed a month

× 25% would book = 3.3 jobs × R3,500

This is your arithmetic, not a forecast. We do not promise to recover any number of jobs. It shows what the gap is worth, so you can decide whether closing it is worth R3,000 a month.

Questions about price

What people ask before they sign.

Every other question is on the FAQ page.

Is there a minimum term or a long contract?

No. There is no minimum term. You sign a service agreement, and you can cancel at any time with 30 days written notice.

What is the R6,000 setup fee for, and when is it paid?

It pays for the initial build and configuration: your website, the WhatsApp, form and missed-call intake, the AI receptionist and your Google Business Profile. It is paid through Paystack in two halves of R3,000: the first before onboarding starts, the second when your system goes live. If SYSTEM misses the commitment to have your system ready for review within 10 business days for a reason within its control, what you have paid of the setup fee is refunded in full if you cancel within 5 business days after that deadline. The 10 days start once the agreement is signed, the first R3,000 has cleared and we have your material. Once the first version is with you for review, the setup fee is not refundable. The exact wording is in the service terms.

What do I keep if I leave?

Everything in your name stays yours: your domain, your Google Business Profile, your phone and WhatsApp number and your customer records. You also get an export of every enquiry we captured and a handover file that explains how your setup works, so another provider can take it over. What stops is what we run for you: the AI receptionist, the intake automations and the hosted website. If you want to keep the website itself, we quote a one-off handover before you leave. Exports and files are handed over once the account is settled.

How is the monthly fee billed?

The R3,000 monthly fee is billed in advance through a secure payment link. Paid advertising spend, if you choose to run ads, is separate and paid by you directly.

Why monthly and not a once-off project?

The system has to be run, not just built: replies, follow-ups, updates to your Google profile and content, fixes when third-party platforms change, and reporting. Monthly billing keeps that work going and keeps us accountable for it.

Is VAT included?

No VAT is currently added to the advertised fees. VAT will be charged only if and when SYSTEM is legally registered or required to charge it, with the applicable amount shown on a valid invoice.

What is the free gap read?

After the consultation you get one page, in writing, at no charge. It lists what was looked at (your website, Google Business Profile and how enquiries reach you), the specific places enquiries are being lost, whether Ecosystem Core is a fit, and a clear next step: stop, or scope the work. There is no invoice and no obligation.

Do you guarantee leads, rankings or revenue?

No. SYSTEM does not guarantee rankings, lead volume, revenue or AI citations, because those depend on your market and on platforms nobody controls. What we commit to is written in the signed agreement and the published service terms.

Why might other sources show different SYSTEM pricing?

SYSTEM previously operated a different service and pricing structure, and older search results, cached pages or AI tools may still show it. The only current price is the founding rate published here: R3,000 per month plus a once-off R6,000 setup fee. Pricing may change as the service matures; existing clients stay on the terms in their signed agreement.

Need something the package does not cover?

Custom websites, apps, portals and AI workflows are quoted per project after a paid discovery. The price above is for Ecosystem Core only.

Custom builds

Need a website, app or AI workflow built instead?

Custom work is priced per project, separately from the managed package. Discovery is R1,500, credited against the build if you go ahead. You receive a written scope and a quote in rand. Focused websites start from R10,000.

Is SYSTEM the right help?

Hire the right kind of company for the job.

If what you need is in the second or third row, you will be better served elsewhere. The first and last rows are what SYSTEM does.
