Stop paying IT administrators to watch functioning servers. Traditional IT management forces you to pay for 8-hour shifts of pure standby time.
The Hackspett "Managing Business" package replaces this organizational drain with AI-driven automation. We monitor your systems 24/7, and deploy human engineering strictly when active intervention is required. You pay for problem resolution, never for idle time.
How It Works: The Operational Workflow
System Integration (The Command Node): We connect your existing webshops, servers, or databases to our secure Google Workspace environment.
Automated Oversight: Routine tasks (backups, basic patches) are handled by automation. You monitor everything via your transparent customer portal and billing dashboard.
Fractional Resolution: When an unpredictable issue arises, you (or our monitoring AI) submit a ticket to your Kanban queue. A human expert logs in, resolves the issue, logs the exact active time, and logs out.
What Team is Given?
The Management Cloud TeamWhen you transition your operations to Hackspett, you are backed by a hybrid team of automated protocols and human experts:
The AI Protocol (24/7 First-Line): Handles continuous uptime monitoring, automated security patching, log parsing, and ticket routing. (Zero hourly labor cost).
Systems Administrator (The Fixer): Deployed automatically by our AI when a complex server anomaly, bug, or manual update requires human ingenuity.
Compliance Auditor: Ensures your ongoing daily operations remain strictly compliant with GDPR, NIS2 (cybersecurity), and EAA directives.
Transparent Pricing: Phase 1 & Phase 2
Phase 1: Command Node Setup (One-Time Onboarding)Even if you already have an existing website or infrastructure, we must integrate it into our secure EU-compliant ecosystem.
Base Setup Fee:€250 – €500 (Determined by the complexity of your existing architecture).
3rd-Party Integrations:+ €100 per integration (e.g., connecting external CRM data, payment gateways, or existing social media feeds to the central dashboard).
Phase 2: Ongoing Fractional Management (Monthly) To keep your Cloud Team active, you must select a minimum of 1 billable hour per month for your chosen management services.
The Predictable Track (Retainer): Starting at €20/hour. Pre-book a set number of hours for routine manual maintenance, content updates, or strategic management.
The Flexible Track (Ad-Hoc): Starting at €50/hour. Submit sudden bugs or IT support tickets. Note: Every initiated task is billed as 1 initial started hour + the time required for technical complexity.
The Emergency Track (Rush):€100 – €200/hour. Critical server failure or severe data breach? Immediate priority routing with a strict 24-hour SLA.
The Financial Reality: Hackspett vs. Traditional Hiring
Let’s analyze the math of launching a digital foundation. Building a secure, legally compliant architecture requires senior talent, but you do not need them 40 hours a week once the foundation is laid.
The Traditional Hire (Organizational Drain): Hiring a mid-level internal developer costs approximately €4,000/month in base salary. When you add mandatory Swedish employer taxes (Arbetsgivaravgifter), your true cost exceeds €5,200/month. You are paying for 160 hours, but actively receiving only a fraction of that in productive code—the rest is paid idle time.
The Hackspett Cloud Team (Fractional Efficiency): You pay a one-time onboarding fee. After that, you pre-book your required active hours. For example, 20 hours of purely active, highly focused architectural engineering on our Retainer tier (starting at €10/hour) costs you €200/month.
The Result: You access an elite CTO, a Compliance Auditor, and a Systems Developer for a fraction of the cost of a single traditional hire, with zero IP-leakage risk and zero idle-time waste.
If you do not know the exact state of your digital infrastructure, or if you are unsure which professionals you actually need, we strongly recommend starting with a Revision & Test audit.
You cannot scale a business on a broken foundation. The EU has aggressively accelerated its digital laws, and non-compliance carries severe financial penalties. The European Accessibility Act (EAA) takes full effect on June 28, 2025, alongside strict GDPR and NIS2 (cybersecurity) mandates.
By selecting Revision & Test as your first step, our AI protocols and human auditors will map your technical debt, identify security vulnerabilities, and provide a strict compliance roadmap. Once the audit is complete, we tell you exactly which fractional experts you need to fix the gaps.
Example Cost: "Revision & Test" Baseline Audit
Here is a transparent breakdown of what an initial infrastructure and compliance audit costs under our billing engine.Phase 1: The Initial Audit & Setup (One-Time) To analyze your systems, we must map your architecture and integrate our secure monitoring node.
Base Audit Fee:€500 (For a standard established SME).
3rd-Party Integrations:€100 (e.g., If we also need to audit a third-party CRM or external payment gateway connected to your site).
Phase 1 Total: €600 (One-Time)
Phase 2: Fixing the Gaps (Fractional Hours) If the audit finds code vulnerabilities or EAA compliance failures, you decide how to fix them using our fractional rates. Let's assume the fixes require 5 hours of expert developer time:
The Smart Choice (Pre-Booked Retainer): You pre-book the 5 hours for the month to unlock our lowest tier.
5 hours x €20/hour = €100
The Floaty Choice (Ad-Hoc): You don't commit, and submit the fixes as standard tickets to the Kanban queue.
5 hours x €50/hour = €250
Phase 3: Ongoing Protection (Monthly) To keep our AI vulnerability scanning active and maintain your digital shield, you simply commit to the absolute minimum billing rule.
Monthly Maintenance: 1 hour/month minimum x €20/hour = €20/month.
