SERVICE SCOPE AND WORK DETAILS

Effective Date: August 24, 2026
Last Updated: August 24, 2026

These Service Scope and Work Details describe Seedcore’s standard advisory work, Deliverables, implementation support, optional continuation Services, Client responsibilities, and exclusions.

These Work Details are incorporated into Seedcore’s Terms of Service. The applicable Order controls the exact scope, price, service period, delivery timing, and any agreed exceptions.

1. Service Purpose

Seedcore provides structured early-stage business advisory for first-time solo founders and early-stage companies.

The Services are designed to help a founder:

1.1. Understand what the business should become.

1.2. Determine whether the founder is building the right product, service, offer, or company.

1.3. Identify what is preventing the business from reaching customers, creating value, generating revenue, or operating consistently.

1.4. Replace unstructured uncertainty with a clearer diagnosis, focused direction, prioritized decisions, supporting intelligence, and an actionable path forward.

1.5. Reach meaningful customer value and revenue sooner while avoiding unnecessary work, premature complexity, and costly strategic mistakes.

Seedcore is not merely a course, chatbot, consulting call, document-delivery service, or generic template library. It combines structured intake, human strategic analysis, project-specific research, custom advisory output, education, resources, persistent project context, and optional implementation support.

2. Standard Engagement Structure

Unless an Order states otherwise, a Seedcore advisory engagement generally includes the following stages.

2.1. Purchase and access

Client purchases the engagement and receives access to the relevant onboarding and project systems.

2.2. Onboarding

Client completes an extensive adaptive onboarding process at Client’s own pace.

Onboarding may collect:

(a) founder goals;

(b) skills and experience;

(c) available time, capital, relationships, technology, and other resources;

(d) personal and operational constraints;

(e) the idea, business, offer, product, service, and revenue model;

(f) target customers and market assumptions;

(g) work already completed;

(h) validation attempts, experiments, customers, sales, and results;

(i) current questions, options, assumptions, and uncertainties; and

(j) documents, links, examples, research, and other project material.

2.3. Follow-up clarification

Seedcore may provide additional written questions or request a clarification call when important information is missing, inconsistent, uncertain, or strategically significant.

A call is not required unless the applicable Order states otherwise.

2.4. Scope confirmation

Seedcore reviews the Client’s context and defines the areas most likely to create value.

The scope normally identifies approximately six to eight core Deliverables or work areas. The exact selection depends on the founder, stage, evidence, priorities, and principal constraints.

2.5. Advisory and intelligence production

Seedcore conducts research, analysis, synthesis, strategic development, resource selection, education development, and Deliverable production.

Unless an Order states otherwise, the standard production target is seven to fourteen business days after onboarding and required clarification are complete.

2.6. Delivery

Seedcore delivers the completed advisory output through the Client portal and any export formats identified in the Order.

2.7. Clarification and application

An engagement may include a defined period for questions, clarification, prioritization, limited refinements, and help applying the work.

Depending on the purchased engagement, this period may range from fourteen to sixty days. The Order controls the actual period.

2.8. Optional continuation

Client may purchase Seedcore Intelligence access, Post-Delivery Advisory, Guided Implementation, or another continuation Service where available.

5. Education and Explanation

Seedcore provides education to help the Client understand and apply the work rather than merely receive conclusions.

Educational material may include:

A third-party resource may change, become unavailable, adopt new pricing, or no longer be suitable after delivery.

7. Custom Build-Out and Personalization

Seedcore builds each engagement around the Client’s actual context.

Personalization may affect:

7.11. Seedcore Intelligence context.

7.12. Follow-up support.

Seedcore may use proprietary frameworks, reusable structures, internal processes, and standardized systems. Personalization means those systems are selected, adapted, populated, and developed around the Client’s business; it does not mean every underlying format is invented separately for each Client.

“Custom build-out” does not mean custom software development, custom application development, website development, or production implementation unless an Order expressly includes that work.

8. Deliverables

A standard engagement generally includes approximately six to eight core Deliverables selected around the business’s stage, priorities, and largest questions.

Possible Deliverables include:

This list illustrates possible work. It is not a promise that every item will be included.

A Deliverable may combine multiple related issues where doing so produces a clearer and more useful result.

9. Delivery Format

Delivery may include:

9.1. A private Client portal.

9.2. Web-based Deliverables.

9.3. PDF, Markdown, text, spreadsheet, presentation, or other identified exports.

Where included, the clarification period may provide:

10.1. Questions concerning the Deliverables.

10.2. Explanation of recommendations.

12.8. Continued access to the original project context.

A bounded edit or strategic adjustment must remain connected to the original engagement. A materially new business direction, target customer, product, service, market, or body of work requires a separate scope.

13. Guided Implementation

Guided Implementation is an optional, time-limited continuation designed to help Client move from advisory direction into execution.

Depending on the Order, an engagement may last two, four, or six weeks and may include:

13.1. One scheduled advisory call per week.

Unless the Order states otherwise:

(a) requests must be submitted during the applicable week;

(b) unused requests do not accumulate or convert to cash;

(c) calls and support expire at the end of the engagement;

(d) Seedcore may define a reasonable format and boundary for a request; and
