# The three phase budgets

Reconstructed brief · 2026-10-24

Prepared for this archive from the final budget instruction. This table is a new reconstruction, not the missing Word file.

## Budget envelope

| Phase | Chosen budget |
|---|---:|
| First proof of concept | €9,000 |
| Second proof of concept | €27,000 |
| Final production | €180,000 |

These are the three figures selected at the end of the 17 December 2025 working session. They are budget targets, not recorded spending.

The conversation mentions a revised production document, but its Word file is absent from the export. This table preserves the final budget choice without recreating that missing document.
