Let's talk
Bring the problem. You will get a straight answer on whether it is sprint-shaped, roughly what it would cost, and when it could be running.
What should I bring?
The problem, not a specification. A few sentences is enough: the pilot that never reached production, the two systems someone reconciles by hand every week, the spreadsheet only one person understands. If you already have a spec, a diagram or a budget in mind, send it. If you have none of that, it is not a blocker - working out what the real problem is comes first anyway, and it is usually the most useful part of the first conversation.
What happens next?
Dan reads it. There is nobody else here to route it through, no qualifying call and no account manager between you and the person who would do the work. If it is a fit, you get the shape of an engagement back: what a first sprint would cover and what it would take to get there. If it is not, you get told so, with the reason and, where there is one, a better direction.
How fast will I hear back?
Within 24 hours. Messages land in one inbox, so nothing waits on someone else picking it up. If you would rather skip the form, book a call instead - the calendar is Dan's own, and fifteen minutes is usually enough to tell whether this fits.
