How much does the Identity Forensics Audit cost?

The Identity Forensics Audit is a $5,000 application-gated diagnostic. It maps the founder bottleneck, voice risk, market confusion, proof gaps, and install readiness before recommending a full build.

Who is the Agentic Brand Factory OS for?

It is for founder-led businesses, creative operators, consultants, and personal brands whose brand still depends on the founder to post, pitch, explain, approve, and coordinate the work.

What happens after the audit?

The audit produces a leak map, proof review, voice check, install readiness score, and 90-day recommendation. Qualified businesses can move into the Agentic Brand Factory OS Install or ongoing operations.

Do I need to manage another dashboard?

No. The system is positioned as a private operating layer. The founder approves direction and receives build receipts, while the factory handles approved transmissions, offers, assets, and delivery infrastructure.

Commodity Tax Snapshot

Price the proof gap before you fix it.

The calculator turns unclear positioning, weak proof, channel dependence, and founder time drag into a rough weekly business estimate. It is a diagnostic snapshot, not tax, legal, accounting, or financial advice.

Calculator

Calculate what being generic costs you every week.

Enter your best numbers. Estimates are fine. The receipt shows weekly profit leak first, then the math behind it.

Don't know a number? Leave the default, then tighten it in the finance details after you see the receipt.

Starter defaults active: 60% contribution margin and $11,625 starter benchmark client value. The receipt will mark these as starter assumptions.

Primary Offer Type

Business inputs

Current Annual Revenue

Money your business collected in the last 12 months.

Average Client Value

What one client pays on average.

Leads Or Calls / Month

Good-fit people who ask, book, or reply each month.

Close Rate

Out of 100 good-fit chances, how many become buyers.

Owned Audience

People you can reach without renting attention from a platform.

Examples: email list, customer list, SMS list, private community, or direct subscribers.

Channel Dependency

How much revenue depends on one platform, partner, or referral source.

Founder Time Needed

How much sales or delivery still needs you personally.

Profit Margin After Delivery

Money left after you pay delivery costs. Use 60% if you are not sure.

Finance calls this contribution margin. If you collect $10,000 and spend $4,000 to deliver, this is 60%.

Benchmark Client Value

What one client should pay when the offer is clear and easy to buy.

Use a target price, a stronger competitor, or a reviewed benchmark. If you are not sure, leave the starter value.

Proof structure

Optional. Add customer cost, retention, and lifetime value numbers when you want a tighter finance read.

Receipt

Inspect the estimate

The first number is the decision number. These sections show what is counted, what is missing, and what would make the estimate stronger.

Receipt mathBreakdown

Artifact A: Audited Leak Stack

Pricing Power Recoverable

$49,500

Acquisition Cost Recoverable

Retention Margin Recoverable

Pricing power is a ceiling before demand response. Recovery depends on differentiation and segment elasticity. Customer cost only counts when those inputs are complete. Retention is counted for one year only. Lifetime value stays separate.

Benchmark quality: starter estimate. Counted: pricing power.

Finance can tighten this by adding named benchmark sources, like a price list, CRM export, or finance sheet.

Why The Number Is Defensible

The annual number is pricing power recoverable plus acquisition cost recoverable plus one year of retention margin recoverable. It is shown as profit after delivery costs. Missing terms are shown instead of guessed.

Formula: additive_peer_review_v2. Lifetime value is separate and never added to the annual leak.

TrustBenchmark source quality

Benchmark Quality

Starter benchmark: the tool used your offer type because finance benchmarks are not filled in yet. Good for a first read. Not final.

CFO read: this gets stronger when price, customer cost, and retention benchmarks are tied to named sources. Missing terms are shown instead of guessed.

Benchmark Evidence

Owner-review packet required: every counted term needs a named source, proof type, similar business, fresh proof date, reviewer, and review date before finance should rely on it.

DiagnosisConstraint and mechanism

Biggest Constraint

Audience Control

Move more buyers from outside platforms to email, your customer list, and web pages that search and AI tools can read.

Estimated share of the leak: $14,795

Artifact B: Mechanism Index

AI Authority Pull

Search and AI tools do not yet see the brand as a clear source to cite.

Risk score: 59.74/100. These scores show the likely cause and next step. They do not add dollars.

ScenariosValue created bands

Artifact C: Value Created Bands. Value created means baseline bleed minus projected remaining bleed. This is a before/after on operating bleed, not a projected return multiple.

Selected scenario: Target could create $24,750 and leave $24,750 in remaining bleed.

Recommended Next Step

Use Strategy or the Evidence Kit to tighten the proof before a full audit.

Your brief should start with Audience Control: Move more buyers from outside platforms to email, your customer list, and web pages that search and AI tools can read.

Lifetime Value Check

Add retention and customer cost details to estimate lifetime value gap. It will stay separate from annual Commodity Tax.

Case File

CT-1270: estimated annual Commodity Tax is $49,500 and estimated weekly leak is $952. This is estimated profit left after delivery costs, not a tax bill.

Audited Leak Stack

Pricing Power Recoverable: $49,500. Acquisition Cost Recoverable: $0. Retention Margin Recoverable: $0. Pricing power is a ceiling before demand response; recovery depends on differentiation and segment elasticity.

Monthly Delay Cost

Every month without a fix carries an estimated delay cost of $4,125. This is annual leak divided by 12.

Dominant Drag

Audience Control is the biggest constraint. Move more buyers from outside platforms to email, your customer list, and web pages that search and AI tools can read.

Main Cause

AI Authority Pull has the highest risk score. Search and AI tools do not yet see the brand as a clear source to cite.

Mechanism Index

Signal Waste: 67/100. Your marketing work is not building clear market recognition fast enough. System Reliability: 5/100. Each added workflow step raises the chance that sales or delivery will break. Identity Resonance: 35/100. Your method, message, audience, and promised result do not yet feel like one clear offer. Capacity Leak: 89/100. Manual fixes, repeated work, and founder time are using capacity that should help the business grow. AI Authority Pull: 4/100. Search and AI tools do not yet see the brand as a clear source to cite. These scores show the likely cause and next step. They do not add dollars to the annual number.

Value Created Bands

Value created means baseline bleed minus projected remaining bleed. This is a before/after on operating bleed, not a projected return multiple.

Confidence

Confidence level: high. Lifetime value gap is not calculated yet and is not included in annual Commodity Tax.

Assumptions

Counted in the money number: pricing power.

Starter defaults used: 60% contribution margin and $11,625 starter benchmark client value.

Formula version: additive_peer_review_v2. Annual Commodity Tax means estimated annual profit leak after delivery costs.
Profit margin after delivery costs is 60%. Revenue needed to cover this leak at the same margin is $82,500.
Benchmark quality is starter estimate. The tool used the selected offer type because finance benchmarks are not filled in yet. Good for a first read. Not final.
Pricing Power Recoverable uses $11,625 as the benchmark client value and 20 observed annual clients.
Pricing Power Recoverable is a ceiling before demand response. Real recovery depends on differentiation and segment elasticity.
Counted terms: pricing power.
Missing terms: acquisition cost, retention margin.
Benchmark source quality: Pricing Power Recoverable: starter estimate, needs review; Acquisition Cost Recoverable: starter estimate, needs review; Retention Margin Recoverable: starter estimate, needs review.
Benchmark pack: Generic founder-operator estimate. Mode: generic_estimate. Confidence: generic.
The scorecard explains cause and next step. It does not increase the money number. Identity coherence score: 35.65/100.
Retention leak is shown as a one-year floor. Lifetime impact may be larger and is shown separately only when enough data exists.
The monthly delay cost is annual leak divided by 12.
Value created bands are before/after bleed estimates at 30%, 50%, and 70%. They are not projected return multiples.
This tool gives a business estimate. It does not give tax, legal, accounting, or financial advice.
Benchmark client value was not entered, so the starter estimate was used.
