Penguin Protect Consulting
Custom help — not a shopping cart
You do not need to know the jargon. We interview you, translate your goals, and write a scope that fits beginners and advanced teams alike. Soft ranges only until we meet.

What we can take on
AI ideas to working prototypes
Many people spend hours chatting with AI and never ship anything usable. After a short consult, we can turn a real business idea into a robust working prototype — often from about $50 — with a user guide and practical next steps.
Custom internal tools & automations
Dashboards, integrations, intake workflows, and process cleanup sized to your team. Small jobs that solve one painful problem are welcome — you do not need a six-figure roadmap to start.
IT hygiene & security-aware scoping
Initial analysis of access, vendors, and risk — plus help preparing service agreements and statements of work so expectations stay clear and support stays bounded.
Soft investment ranges
Examples only — not SKUs. We customize so we do not miss people who need a few hundred dollars of help rather than a large retainer.
- Free discovery call for every consulting inquiry
- Typical one-time work often $25–$500
- AI prototype path often from about $50 after a short consult
- Mesa businesses: preferred / discounted rates after the free consult
- Support hours are scoped in writing — solid handoff, not endless free support
