IaC Genius — Frequently Asked Questions

Fixed, transparent pricing — no hourly rates or hidden fees. Each project is priced upfront based on scope and complexity (scale, architecture, compliance, availability). You always receive a confirmed quote before payment.

Applies to eligible single-component modules (e.g., RDS, VPC, Azure SQL Database). The 48-hour timeline starts after scope confirmation and payment, measured in UK (GMT / UTC +0). Multi-service or complex architectures receive a separate quote and delivery estimate.

Traditional DevOps services cost $150–250 per hour. Our AI-assisted process automates heavy lifting — Azure OpenAI generates the code, real terraform validation catches errors, and Checkov scans against 750+ security policies. This automated pipeline delivers in minutes what consultants take days to produce, and we pass those efficiency gains to you through fixed, transparent pricing.

Azure OpenAI Service (GPT-5) hosted in Europe with EU data residency. Your infrastructure specifications are not used to train AI models. All processing complies with Microsoft's enterprise data protection terms and GDPR. For enterprise customers, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available on request.

AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. Clients choose their preferred provider. We use only officially supported Terraform / OpenTofu providers and public APIs — no custom providers or plug-ins.

Every configuration is scanned by Checkov against 750+ security policies from CIS, SOC2, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS benchmarks. Templates are built around least privilege, encryption at rest and in transit, and network segmentation. Our templates enable the infrastructure controls required by these frameworks. Organisational and process controls remain your responsibility.

AI-generated, terraform-validated IaC (Terraform/OpenTofu). Checkov security scan with score. Basic security config (IAM roles, policies, security groups). Documentation for deployment. 48-hour delivery for eligible single-component Starter modules + 30-day bug-fix warranty.

Multi-environment or multi-region setups. Application-level deployment or testing. Continuous monitoring or managed support. Integration with Chef, Ansible, Puppet, SaltStack, or other configuration tools. Custom Terraform / OpenTofu providers or extensions. Unsupported features from public Terraform providers or cloud APIs.

One free in-scope revision within 30 days. Additional revisions $189 each. Out-of-scope changes = new quote. Includes 30-day bug-fix warranty.

One-time projects: We deliver deployment-ready code and guidance; you deploy in your own account. We do not perform hands-on deployments for fixed-price projects. Partnership Plan: Sandbox deployments available for validation. Temporary, scoped credentials (e.g., limited IAM role, cross-account role, or test environment) are required and revoked after completion.

Full refund if we cannot meet requirements. Unlimited adjustments before scope approval. Refunds follow warranty terms.

We do not offer continuous or managed support. Because each deliverable is Infrastructure as Code, you may request enhancements or improvements later as new fixed-cost projects.

AI evaluates several factors — number of services, architecture patterns, compliance requirements, and availability needs. You receive an instant estimate and quote before payment. For full transparency on how our algorithmic pricing works, see our Pricing Transparency Disclosure.

Full refund before work starts or if requirements cannot be met. After delivery approval, handled case-by-case under warranty. Partnership subscriptions are non-refundable after billing.

Yes — our AI (Azure OpenAI Service) can understand and respond in multiple languages. However, English is our official business language, and all deliverables are in English. Multilingual responses are AI-assisted, not human-translated; if a translation differs, English prevails.

We operate in the UK timezone (GMT / UTC +0) during standard business hours (Mon–Fri, 09:00–17:00). All delivery commitments, including 48-hour turnaround, are measured relative to this timezone.
