The virtual GM

Before you pay for an expensive GM, start with SPEC.

Give us a go. Add some training if you need it. And if that doesn’t get you there, our 6–12 month program will. No ongoing GM. Amazing results.

A fully-loaded GM runs about A$300,000 a year once you load super, car, bonus and recruitment. This sits comfortably under that.

A$134 a leadership seat, A$17 a team seat, per month. The first one is free.

The first seat is free, so a business of one pays nothing at all. No minimum. No tier that unlocks features. Drawing your whole business — every role, every reporting line, every KPI — is free and stays free however long it takes. Billing starts with the second person, because that is when SPEC starts doing work for more than one of you. A vacant or predicted role never carries a seat, however the structure moves.

Everything is in it, from the first minute

There is one SPEC. Nothing is held back for a bigger plan, and there is no version of this where you pay more for the same thing. Connectors, the assistant and every screen are on from the first minute.

AI usage is paid for through SPEC, so there is no second bill and no key of yours in it.

What is free

Roles with nobody in themA vacancy is information, and charging for it would make businesses hide them.
People on the chart, uninvitedA name is just a name until you choose to send an invite. Nothing is emailed and nothing bills.
Board seatsThe board reads the pack inside SPEC. Charging a director to read their own business would be absurd.

By region

Decided rather than converted. A price never moves because an exchange rate did, and you are billed in your own currency.

Region	Leadership seat	Team seat
Australia	A$134	A$17
New Zealand	NZ$180	NZ$23
United Kingdom	£88	£11
Euro area	€134	€17
United States	US$134	US$17
Canada	CA$180	CA$23

Australian, New Zealand, British and euro prices include tax — the Australian figures include GST. United States and Canadian prices are before tax, which is added at checkout.

Beyond software — how much support you want running it

SPEC Training

a month, in Australian dollars · sign up now

Training delivered by SPEC rather than by the software. Four one-to-one sessions a month with whoever you choose to set this up and run it — built around the roles the business actually has and how it is actually using SPEC. Delivered from Australia to anywhere in the world.

Full SPEC control

Let's talk

Priced once we both know what it needs to do.

SPEC runs it. One full day a week on site, and the monthly board meeting attended and chaired. Australia only for now — it is a day of somebody's week, in a place they have to be.

What it is worth, at your numbers

The claim is about the labour component, not revenue: labour is the part a business controls month to month. Move the sliders to your own figures, and switch off any line you disagree with.

Your numbers

Nothing is sent anywhere. This runs in your browser.

Revenue a yearA$12,000,000People40Labour as a share of revenue30%How much more you think is in it20%

Labour is 30% of revenue — A$3,600,000 a year. Everything below is a share of that, never of revenue.

The gap, at your numbers

A$720,000

20.0% of the labour bill — 6.0% of revenue, and A$18,000 a person.

Recoverable in the first twelve months

A$371,400

SPEC at 40 seats costs A$64,320 a year. The recoverable figure is 6 times that.

Where it goes

Switch off anything you disagree with

Hours paid but not productiveA$192,000Paid time lost to travel, waiting on materials, and a schedule that moved without telling anyone.Utilisation is scored against a target the person agreed, fed by the roster rather than typed in.
Labour spent doing work twiceA$144,000Crews back on site because the scope, the take-off or the brief was wrong the first time.Margin against quote is scored monthly per role, so a rework pattern shows in month one instead of at year end.
Work falling between undefined rolesA$120,000Hours absorbed covering a seat nobody owns, or a role that was never defined.Roles are defined before people, and a vacant role shows on the roll-up every month it stays open.
Admin and double entryA$96,000Supervisors and office staff typing the same job into four systems.Connected systems feed the KPIs directly, so nobody retypes a number that already exists.
Estimating and follow-up time wastedA$84,000Hours spent pricing work that then goes quiet because nobody owned the follow-up.Win rate is a scored KPI on the role that owns it, so a stalled quote is visible rather than forgotten.
Incidents, stand-downs and compliance reworkA$84,000Crews standing down, re-inspections, claims, and the admin that follows an incident.Zero Harm and Clear to Work are hard gates reported separately, so nothing is averaged away until it becomes a claim.

Amber is what is leaking; green is what is realistically recoverable in year one. The rates are published against each line rather than rolled into one number, so you can argue with any of them.

How SPEC shortens the J curve

Every transformation dips before it climbs, and the dip is deep because discovery is manual. SPEC collapses it by letting the systems you already run feed the KPIs, so the picture exists the day they connect.

If you stop paying

It goes read-only. Nothing is deleted, every month you closed stays exactly as you closed it, and export always works. A business that has stopped paying still owns its own record.

No card. Nothing bills until you invite somebody in.
