Field notes
The page sustains its premise across service descriptions, an FAQ, pricing, and a purported customer story rather than stopping at a single gag. Its four-step sequence moves from an assistant joining a team to a staged farewell, while the pricing section compares a fully loaded human at $70,000 per year with a $480-per-role enterprise offering. These figures and service claims appear within the site's satirical framing.
