That is the whole price of the Grove, Oakwright's done-for-you AI sales team. No per-seat math, no usage tiers, no long contract. Year one totals $66,000. Every year after that is $36,000. Every outbound message waits for the owner's approval before it sends.
| Option | Year one | Ongoing | What you actually get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hire an SDR | $75,000 to $110,000 fully loaded | Same, plus raises and churn | One seat, business hours, about three months to ramp, and the work leaves when they do. |
| DIY AI tools | $600 to $18,000 in subscriptions | Same, plus your time | The tool is cheap; the operator is you. Lists, prompts, deliverability, and cleanup all still need a person who knows the craft. |
| The Grove (this is us) | $66,000 | $36,000 a year | Research, outreach in your voice, follow-up, reply handling, and a daily briefing. Installed, run for you, every send approved by you. |
The install is not a signup flow. Oakwright builds the agent team around your business: your offer, your market, your voice, your rules about what may never be said. Then it wires the approval queue so nothing reaches a buyer without your sign-off. That is weeks of real work, done once, and it is the difference between an AI that sounds like you and a tool that sounds like a tool.
No. The monthly fee is flat at $3,000. Cancel the month it stops earning its keep.
Operating the team: research, outreach, follow-up, reply handling, the daily briefing, and the infrastructure it all runs on. You approve; it works.
Yes. The free AI Employee Playbook, finished assets from about $1,000, and field guides and template packs under $50. The ladder exists so you can judge the work before the big check.
That is what the walkthrough is for. We show the system running before you commit, and the smaller rungs let you buy proof instead of promises.
