Why Bushido
- Built by MSP operators. Bushido is operated by Intelligent Automation, LLC — a Managed Cybersecurity Service Provider. Built by people who run hardware estates, not a generic content site.
- Honest confidence scoring. Every record carries a confidence number. AI is acknowledged. Estimates are labeled as estimates. We say "we don't know" when we don't know.
- No upsell, no maintenance contract. We do not sell hardware, parts, support, or contracts. There is no sales rep waiting for you to read the page. The information is the product.
Built for the people who actually deal with old hardware.
For SMB IT leads
The vendor has stopped returning your calls but the box still hums. Decide repair vs. replace with the actual math: secondhand parts pricing, TPM ranges, the modern successor's spec sheet.
For TPM buyers
Indicative TPM pricing across 9×5 NBD, 24×7 NBD, 24×7×4 onsite, 24×7×4 remote — annual and monthly — for a sanity check before you call providers.
