The honest read
Doing nothing costs you $161,000 a year, and it never gets better. An agency or more tools bill forever and leave you owning nothing.
OsmoSync runs on a retainer too. The difference: you own the system it builds, in your stack and on your data, and it hands back roughly $100k of your team's year. We price it to your scope on a call.
Get your scope and priceEstimates for the agency and tools paths, not a quote, and we don't price OsmoSync here. Assumptions: an agency frees about half the manual work but bills a retainer forever and you own nothing; added tools free about a quarter and still need a person to run them; an owned system removes most of the manual work. OsmoSync builds and runs it on a retainer, scoped to your work on a call.
