Knight Ops License Program

Your agency. Our build system.

License the system Knight Ops uses to scope, build and support client software, and run your own development agency on it. Your brand, your clients, your prices. We supply the infrastructure, the build pipeline, the training and the accountability behind it.

Fit first

Built for builders who already ship.

This is a delivery system, not a course. It assumes you can read code, run a terminal and own the result in front of a client.

A good fit

  • You build websites, dashboards or apps for clients now, or you have shipped real software and are ready to sell it.
  • You are comfortable in a terminal, with Git, and with reviewing what an AI builds before a client sees it.
  • You want your own brand and your own client relationships, with a proven system underneath.
  • You will keep response times honest, because your clients will be able to see them.

Not a fit

  • You are looking for leads or clients to be handed to you. Knight Ops does not supply clients.
  • You want a white-label reseller product with no technical work on your side.
  • You are new to building software and want to learn to code first.
  • You are looking for passive income. This is an operating business.

What you get

The whole system, not a template pack.

The same stack Knight Ops runs its own client work on, with your workspace scoped to your clients only.

01

Your own workspace

Clients, projects, pipeline, invoices and requests in one place. You see your book of business and nothing else.

02

Four intake builders

Website, dashboard, mobile app and Blueprint Session intakes. Copy a link, send it, and the submission lands on the right client and project.

03

The Claude Code build pipeline

Kickoff prompts, build prompts, the ship checklist and the orchestration that turns an approved scope into a deployed system.

04

Mockups and approvals

Share links your clients open without logging in, so they review and approve mockups before a line of production code is written.

05

Bug fix and feature pipeline

Clients submit bugs and requests from their hub. Each one is tracked, routed into the build pipeline and closed out with a report.

06

Client billing

Take payment through your own connected Stripe account. Money lands with you; the 3% override is collected at the point of payment.

07

Project update documents

One button turns a period of real commits and deployments into an on-brand update your client can open and share.

08

Meeting capture

Connect your Fathom account and transcripts are matched to the right client, project or Blueprint Session automatically.

09

Training and support

Monthly group training on the system, better builds, positioning, proposals, databases, Claude Code setup and sales, plus Q&A support.

How an engagement runs

Ten steps, from first call to ongoing care.

Every licensee runs client work the same way. The workspace has a surface for each step, and the Licensee SOP walks through them in detail.

01

Discovery call

Qualify fit. If it is a fit, book the Blueprint Session before you hang up.

02

Blueprint Session

60 to 90 minutes working through the Blueprint intake with the client. Book the review call before you hang up.

03

Blueprint review

Walk the blueprint through live. It is never sent ahead of the call. Scope and price are agreed here.

04

Recorded and matched

Fathom records the calls and the transcripts attach to the client and project on their own.

05

Blueprint and proposal

The Blueprint Builder produces the HTML blueprint and proposal with payment options, shared by link.

06

Contract

The Contract Generator drafts the agreement from the same scope, with ownership and continuity terms.

07

Kickoff

The client pays and signs. Run the right Auto Builder and send mockups for approval.

08

Build

Claude Code sets up the database, hosting, logins, the repository and the bug fix pipeline from the kickoff prompt.

09

Review meeting

Verify first, test as a real user, add the client and show them how to submit requests.

10

Ongoing care

Close out requests on time, send update documents, and bill the continuity plan.

Accountability

Your clients get a second set of eyes.

Knight Ops watches the age of every open bug and request across licensees. When something slips, you hear about it first. It is a standard you can show a client, not a threat hanging over you.

Continuity for your clients

Tell us what you build.

Applications are read by Daniel Knight. If it looks like a fit, you will be invited to a call to walk through the system, the agreement and the numbers together. Applying costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

Questions

Straight answers.

Why can I not pay on the site?

The program is new and its legal structure is under attorney review. Until that review is complete, Knight Ops takes applications only. The agreement published here is a draft and is marked that way.

Do I work under the Knight Ops name?

No. You run your own business under your own name and brand. You may show a small "Built on Knight Ops" attribution.

Who owns the client relationship and the code?

You own your client relationships and contracts. Client systems are built on accounts the client owns, following the Knight Ops continuity standard, so nobody is locked in. The build system itself, including prompts and templates, stays Knight Ops property that you license.

How is the 3% override collected?

When a client pays through your connected Stripe account in the workspace, 3% is collected at the moment of payment and the rest goes to you. Revenue billed outside the system is reported monthly.

Will Knight Ops send me clients?

No. Knight Ops does not supply clients or leads, and makes no promises about revenue or income. Training covers how to win and serve clients; the business is yours to build.

What do I need before I start?

A computer you can run a terminal on, a Claude subscription with Claude Code, a GitHub account, and a Stripe account for your business. Onboarding covers the rest.

Is financing available?

Yes. Financing options are discussed on your call.

Build under your name, on a system that is already running.
