Custom Content OS pricing, for systems the four setups cannot hold.
A custom Content OS starts from $1,500 and is quoted after a discovery call. It is for the systems the four setups cannot hold: website SEO or blog writing combined with other platforms, structured knowledge architecture, advanced research, integrations and team workflows.
What a custom Content OS costs.
It starts from $1,500, and the final number follows discovery, because a custom build is designed around your architecture rather than counted in platforms. It can go well above that floor, and the written proposal says exactly where, and why, before anything is built.
- What it covers
- An architecture designed across several workflows, not another platform added
- Typical scope
- Website SEO or blog writing with other platforms, deep research, integrations
- How it is priced
- From the floor upward, on the scope agreed after discovery
- Included
- Three months of maintenance for defects in what we delivered
- After that
- Optional Custom Care, quoted separately, or nothing at all
- Setup price
- From $1,500, quoted in writing after a discovery call
The four setups are deliberately focused. A custom content operating system covers the broader architecture: how knowledge is structured, how research is run, and how production, review, distribution and measurement connect. What a Content OS is, in full, is on our content operating system page. Every tier is on the content automation pricing page.
What moves a project to a custom Content OS.
Any one of these is enough. We name it on the first call, so a custom quote is never a surprise at the proposal stage.
Website SEO or blog writing with other platforms
The website work and the platforms are planned and quoted as one system
Structured knowledge architecture
Several content pillars, on a knowledge base designed for them
Advanced research
Trend monitoring, source evaluation or a complex research pipeline
Custom integrations and dashboards
Approval gates, team workflows, custom APIs or measurement built for you
Several formats and team training
More content types, documented for a team rather than one person
Advanced visual generation
Sometimes scoped inside a setup, sometimes part of a custom build
A second, third or fourth ladder platform
That moves the system up the ladder, not to a custom build
An unusual integration can need a custom quote too, whether it sits inside one of the four setups or a larger build.
Website SEO and blog writing, inside one system.
On their own, website blog writing and website SEO are quoted separately. Combined with other platforms, they become part of one Content OS, built on the same knowledge base.
One Content OS
- 01
Your knowledge base
What you know, sell and believe, written down once - 02
Your website
Blog articles, and the technical and on-page SEO behind them - 03
Your platforms
LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube and the rest, each written natively Researched once, published everywhere it belongs
Each website job has its own page: website blog pricing for articles built from your focus keywords and market gaps, and website SEO pricing for the technical and on-page health of the whole site.
How a custom quote is built.
The quote comes from the scope, never the other way round. These are the steps between the first call and the build, and who owns each one.
- 01You and us
Discovery
Goals, platforms, sources and how you approve work
- 02Us
Architecture
How knowledge, research and workflows connect
- 03Us
Written quote
The scope, the exclusions and third-party costs
- 04You
Approval
Nothing is built before you agree
- 05Us
Build and handover
Tested, documented, then three months of maintenance
A focused setup can move faster than a custom build, so the timeline comes once the complexity and the access it needs are confirmed, not before.
Questions about custom Content OS pricing.
How much does a custom Content OS cost?
It starts from $1,500, one-time, and the final number follows discovery. A larger architecture costs more, and the written proposal says exactly what is in scope before anything is built. Three months of maintenance are included.
When do I need a custom Content OS instead of a setup?
When the system has to do more than the four setups hold: website SEO or blog writing combined with other platforms, structured knowledge architecture, advanced research, custom integrations, dashboards or team workflows.
Can a custom Content OS include the website?
Yes. Website blog writing and website SEO are each quoted separately on their own; combined with other platforms, they are scoped inside a custom Content OS, so the website and the platforms are built on one knowledge base.
Why is there no fixed price?
Because a custom build is designed around your architecture, not counted in platforms. Two businesses on the same platforms can need very different research, integrations and approval steps.
Is ongoing care included?
Three months of maintenance for defects are included. After that, Custom Care is optional and quoted separately, because it depends on the integrations and the support the system needs.
Do I own the system?
Yes. The workflows and documentation we deliver are yours, as the agreement sets out, and your accounts stay in your name wherever possible. Each third-party tool’s own licence still applies.
