A four-person firm hit $1M in nine months. They’re targeting $10M by year three.
A consulting firm signed up with no AI engineers, no proprietary models, and no R&D budget. Nine months later, they’d crossed $1M in partner-sourced revenue, shipped production AI agents to enterprise clients, and built an active co-sell motion with AWS. They’re now on a trajectory to $10M, expanding across verticals, cross-selling functions, and compounding on recurring licensing revenue.
That firm is GoML. This playbook was written so you can do the same thing.

Ten Chapters. One Outcome.
The Shift Happening in Your Market
Your clients used to ask about “AI strategy.” Now they’re asking about AI agents — software that executes workflows, processes invoices, triages tickets, screens resumes, and monitors compliance. Production systems replacing manual work right now.
Your clients will buy AI from someone
The question is whether they buy from you — or from a competitor who moved faster.
The window is 12–18 months
First movers build case studies and delivery models. Late movers compete against all of that.
You don’t need to become an AI company
You need to become a consulting firm that delivers AI. Lyzr is the platform. The delivery is yours.
From $1M to $10M
Four ways you make money
Agent implementations
POCs run $30K–$60K. Production rollouts run $100K–$250K. This is consulting work, exactly what your team already does.
20% platform rev share
Earn 20% of licensing every year, for the life of the contract. It compounds.
Cross-sell & support
One client can generate 3–5 implementation cycles over 18 months as they expand across functions.
Pre-built Agent deployments
80% pre-built, 20% adapted to client stack. Fastest path from contract to live agent. Door-opener to full agent practice.

The Lyzr Product Suite
Five products. Four doorways into the platform, one control plane sitting above them all. Lead with the right one for each client.
Pre-built Business Agents
80% pre-built, 20% adaptable. Production-ready agents for every major business function — Customer Service, HR, Sales, Marketing, Procurement, Banking, Insurance. No IP fees. Customisable to your client’s stack and policies.
ICP: Functional buyers — CFO, CHRO, CMO, legal, finance
Positioned against: Harvey, Sierra, vertical AI SaaS
Key advantage: No IP fees. Client owns the agent, the data, and the deployment.
Architect
No-code AI agent builder. Describe what you want in plain language — Architect builds the agent system and interface. One-click deployment to a shareable URL.
One-Shot Mode: Describe → build in one pass
Guided Mode: Plan → Agents → App, review at each stage
Knowledge Base: Upload client docs, train on their data
Deploy: One-click to a live, shareable URL
Agent Studio
The full enterprise platform. Configure, deploy, monitor, and govern agents at scale. Multi-agent orchestration, compliance frameworks, usage dashboards, RBAC.
Enterprise Brain: 4-tier RBAC, agent lifecycle governance
Agent Marketplace: Reviewed, approved, published agents
Insights Dashboard: Org-wide GenAI adoption tracking
Responsible AI: PII redaction, hallucination manager, audit trails
Git Agent
The open-source agent framework built for pro developers. File-system driven, terminal access, spawns sub-agents, learns skills. JPMorgan-trusted. 2,700+ GitHub stars. Use this as your entry point for OSS-first clients and developer teams who want to build without lock-in.
Positioned against: LangChain, Deep Agents
Protocol: Open GAP (Open Git Agent Protocol)
Proof: Built in 48 hrs what a full Google stack couldn’t. Reliance, STL, Best Buy in pipeline.
Lyzr Control Plane
The universal control plane that sits above everything. Accepts every agent framework — Lyzr, LangChain, Crew, Agentforce. Manages dev → UAT → pre-prod → prod. Cross-cloud high availability. Lead with this when governance and sprawl are the pain.
Agent Registry: Every agent versioned, environment-tagged
Agent Gateway: Load balancer, policy routing, cross-cloud failover
Approval Flows: Dev → UAT → pre-prod → prod with CISO gates
Map the pain to the right doorway. Don’t lead with the platform.
| If your client says… | Lead with |
|---|---|
| “Our agents are sprawling across teams and frameworks — no one knows what’s running.” | Lyzr Control Plane |
| “We’re stuck on LangChain, 30 people building, taking forever.” | Agent Studio |
| “Our business teams are frustrated — they can’t build anything.” | Architect |
| “We need working agents for our team fast — no long build cycle.” | Pre-built Business Agents |
| “We’re on Google / AWS and can’t get our agent to production.” | Git Agent + Open GAP |
| “We need a working prototype in 72 hours for an RFP.” | Rapid Prototyping (via Lyzr team) |
| “We know what to build. We just don’t have the team.” | Applied AI (via Lyzr team) |
Lead with a pre-built agent. Practice follows.
Every enterprise client has a function that’s broken — support queues overflowing, HR buried in policy questions, invoices processed manually. Walk in with a working agent for their exact problem. 80% pre-built, deployed in weeks, customised to their stack. No long RFP. No build-from-scratch conversation. Just a live demo of something that solves their pain right now.

How to Land Your First Deal
Your first AI deal is sitting in your existing client base.
One paragraph. That’s all you need.
“I wanted to share something we’ve been working on. We’re seeing clients deploy AI agents — not chatbots, actual systems that handle tickets, invoices, and HR queries end-to-end. We’ve partnered with a platform that deploys these inside your cloud in 6–8 weeks. Would 30 minutes to show you be worth it?”
The five objections you’ll hear
| They Say | They Mean | You Say |
|---|---|---|
| “Building AI in-house.” | “8 months in, not ready.” | “For operational workflows, pre-built agents are faster. Accenture came to the same conclusion.” |
| “Need ROI first.” | “Can’t get budget.” | “That’s what the POC is for. One function, 6 weeks, hard numbers.” |
| “Data security?” | “CISO will kill this.” | “Everything inside your VPC. SOC 2, GDPR, ISO 27001. FedRAMP-ready.” |
| “Tried a chatbot.” | “Been burned.” | “These agents execute workflows — CRM, ERP, HRIS connected. Let me show you.” |
| “Timing isn’t right.” | “Not convinced.” | “Your competitors are evaluating now. Can I send a one-pager and check back in 30?” |
| “We already have Salesforce / Copilot / ServiceNow agents.” | “We’re locked in.” | “Lyzr is the connective tissue — not a replacement. Your Microsoft AI Foundry agent stuck in prototype? We take it to production. We govern and orchestrate agents from any framework.” |

Why This Works: Production is the product.
Platform + People = Production.
Anyone can have a platform. Anyone can hire people. The combination — plus the lived knowledge of how to ship enterprise agents — is the moat. Only 5% of enterprise agents ever reach production. LangChain, Microsoft AI Foundry, Salesforce Agentforce — the market is saturated with builders. Nobody has the know-how to get to production. Lyzr does. And now, so do you.

platform valuation
Accenture didn’t just invest. They built on it.
Accenture led Lyzr’s $14.5M Series A+. They built their CVC Agent on Lyzr, deployed it internally, and are now co-selling across banking and insurance. When the world’s largest SI goes to production, that’s proof.
VPC deployment
Every agent inside the client’s cloud. No data leaves. SOC 2, GDPR, ISO 27001, HIPAA, FedRAMP.
Multi-agent orchestration
Multiple agents coordinate: read → validate → route → approve. Not chatbots — workflow engines.
Responsible AI built in
PII redaction, hallucination manager, confidence scoring, audit trails. Architecture-level, not bolted on.
Open-source core
No vendor lock-in. MCP-native. Client owns the deployment, the data, and the IP.
Built with the best. Deployed by the best.
