The rebrand that redecorated.
New colours, new type, same claim. It looked current for a season and moved nothing, because the problem was never how you looked.
Repositioning, not redecoration
Senior advisory for the moment you decide to transform.
We help leaders at a threshold solve the problem their customers can already feel.
Fixed scope · a named diagnosis inside two weeks · from $5,000
Why this keeps happening
You didn’t have a creative problem. You had a commercial one.
Most businesses arrive here having already spent the money once.
The agency-hopping cycle.
Three suppliers, three versions of the strategy, none of them accountable for the commercial outcome. Every switch resets the thinking to zero.
The junior team under a senior pitch.
You bought the person in the room and got the person available. The judgement you were paying for left after the kick-off.
A rebrand changes how you look. A reposition changes what you are.
Use cases
Four versions of the moment walk through the door.
Each belongs to a real role at a real threshold. Each gets its own diagnosis.
Selected work
Decided, then built.
Two kinds of engagement, one standard. Positions we repositioned, and products we designed, built and shipped.
Partner voices
The moment, in our partners’ words.
Different moments, different rungs, the same outcome: a decision, and a roadmap you can act on Monday.
“Most AI brands look and sound the same. Antimony built us something different. They took the time to understand the product deeply and created a brand that communicates real capability without the hype. The identity cuts through in a market where everyone is shouting about artificial intelligence.”
“Partnering with Antimony was pivotal for Obie. Antimony transformed our brand into a cohesive, user-friendly experience that truly reflects our mission to empower Australians in their financial journey.”

AlchemAI™ · the Technology & AI practice
One system for integration, insight and operations.
We don’t just advise on AI. We’ve built it: three products in market, not pilots that died in a slide deck.
One intelligence system, readable by any business, in any industry.
Every system, one seam.
Your stack, CRM, storefront and operations connected into a single operating picture, the way Selenium OS reads a whole retail business as one system. Built once, applicable to any business.
Data that decides.
The Data Intelligence Hub pattern: live customer and commercial data read as one system and turned into decisions, not dashboards nobody opens. Proof, ranked and priced, in front of the leadership team.
Workflows that run themselves.
Compliance, reporting and admin automated under senior human direction, the Indium OS discipline applied to your operation. Your people do judgement; the system does the paperwork.
The proof, running
The work, running.
Three AI products in market and the campaign craft behind them. Built, not just advised.

The Femme Intelligence Hub
Live customer and commercial data for Femme Connection, read as one system and put to work: the intelligence layer behind a partner running since 2021.
How you buy it
Five ways in. Start wherever you actually are.
Any pillar can be bought at any rung, and you don’t need a diagnosis to begin. Every engagement prices as a fixed investment, never hours, and ends in something you can hold.
The Advisory Seat
The senior seat, on call
A standing session and direct access between them
From $2,500/moMonth to month · Monthly, cancel any time

The Retainer
The senior seat, kept
A senior seat that holds context across quarters
From $6,000/mo3-month minimum · Ongoing
Fixed fee
A named scope at a named price, agreed before anything starts. Never hourly, so the incentive is the outcome rather than the clock.
Retained
A monthly seat, from the Advisory Seat up to a full Retainer. Predictable for you, and it keeps the context warm between decisions.
Outcome-linked or equity
For the right business at the right moment, part of the fee can sit in the outcome: a performance component, or equity. Selective, and only where we can genuinely influence the result.
Want it built? When the making begins, Antimony Studio picks it up: the full-stack creative and marketing team Sam founded in 2018, under a separate, cleanly quoted engagement. Referred, never bundled. We do the thinking. Antimony does the making.
Take what you want
The diagnosis is free. The application is the paid part.
Everything below is open, ungated and yours. If it is useful on its own, that is a good outcome and you owe us nothing.
Read the thinking before you need it.
An occasional note on repositioning, growth and AI, the same diagnosis we give away in public. No cadence promises, no filler, and you can leave whenever it stops being useful.
Opens your email client. We never sell or share the list.
Questions, answered plainly
Asked before you asked.
Candid answers, including who we are not for.
If you want a logo tidy-up, a tactical quick fix, or the lowest day-rate in the market, there are better options than us, and we will say so on the first call. Alchemy Hill is built for one moment: when you have decided to change what the business is, and you need senior judgement to make that real.
Four rungs, all from-priced and ex-GST: the Audit from $5,000, the Sprint from $12,000, the Roadmap from $18,000, and the Retainer from $6,000 a month. Every engagement prices as a fixed investment, never hours. The full comparison lives on the Engagements page.
A decision and a costed roadmap, not a deck to admire. Findings scored and ranked, one named direction, vendor and budget recommendations, and a sequence you can act on Monday. The roadmap is the deliverable.
The Audit runs up to two weeks. The Sprint runs 1–2 weeks. The Roadmap runs 2–4 weeks. The Retainer is a monthly cadence with a 3-month minimum. Slow enough to think, short enough that nothing goes stale.
Sam Hill holds every engagement as Lead Advisor; the senior thinking is never delegated down to a junior team under a senior pitch. There is a bench of trusted specialists behind the practice, but the judgement you are paying for is the one in the room.
Three products in market: Indium OS (PropTech AI compliance SaaS), Selenium OS (data intelligence platform), and the Femme Connection intelligence hub. Operating products, not proofs of concept. That is the AlchemAI™ standard: we do not recommend what we have not shipped.
No, and that seam is named on purpose. Alchemy Hill decides the strategy; when the making begins, Antimony Studio, a full-stack creative and marketing team in the same building, can create and execute what the advisory decides, under a separate, cleanly quoted engagement. Referred, never bundled. Two premium crafts, each at full strength.
Not at all. The roadmap is vendor-agnostic, costed and sequenced so your in-house team or any studio you rate can run it. Antimony is a recommendation we stand behind, not a condition of the advice.
We define the audience by the moment, not the sector. The range is proven by the work: fashion, property, health, supplements, hospitality, SaaS and more across Australia, New Zealand and Asia. If the moment is a transformation, the industry is context.
Three paths: your team runs it, Antimony Studio builds it under its own engagement, or the Retainer keeps the senior seat warm while it happens. Most partners choose a mix; the roadmap is written so all three work.
Alchemy Hill Advisory, and the aha moment: the instant a hard problem resolves into clarity. The whole practice is built around producing exactly one of those per engagement, on purpose.
