Build with us

Most AI consulting stops at wrappers. We build the system underneath.

Custom infrastructure. Internal tools. Decision engines. Autonomous pipelines. The AI systems your business actually runs on — built with you, not dumped on you.

Why this exists

Your business doesn't need another chatbot. It needs infrastructure.

The problem

Most AI projects die at demo stage. They look impressive in the sales deck, then collapse the moment they touch real data, real workflows, or real customers.

The gap isn't ideas. It's engineering. Custom systems that integrate with your actual stack, reason about your actual data, and operate inside your actual business.

What we do

We build the connective tissue. Not chatbots bolted onto websites. Internal tools your team opens every morning. Dashboards that explain themselves. Pipelines that run autonomously and escalate only what matters.

You walk away with infrastructure you own — code, systems, documentation. Not a dependency on us.

Eight things we can build for you.

Examples of systems we can build — from focused automations that save a team hours per week, to custom platforms that become the spine of how your business operates. Yours can look completely different. Filter by scope.

Focused build Example: $5K – $12K
Sales teams · Insurance · Real estate · Home services

The inbound lead that doesn't go cold.

Form fills, Facebook ads, Zillow sends, referrals — every lead gets called within 60 seconds by an AI that qualifies, books the meeting or viewing, and drops a briefed summary into your CRM. The 70% of leads you lose to slow follow-up become closed deals.

The outbound AI sales rep.

Upload a target list. AI researches each prospect, personalizes the pitch, places the call or sends the email, handles basic objections, and books qualified meetings for your closers. Works 24/7. Never has a bad day. Never asks for commission.

The design memory vault.

Every client's past work — photos, products used, technician notes — tagged against their profile. "Same as last time" actually works, even when the tech who did it left six months ago. Regulars wanting something fresh get AI-generated mockups tailored to their style.

Clinics · Specialty practices · Dental

The pre-visit patient brief.

Reads every note, lab, scan, and past visit before each appointment. Thirty seconds before the doctor walks in, a one-paragraph brief is ready on tablet. "Mrs Chen, 58, follow-up for knee pain. Mild OA on last scan. On ibuprofen 3mo — possible GI concerns. Insurance needs PT attempt before surgery referral."

The damage detection app.

Customer walks around the vehicle with their phone. AI auto-captures every panel, compares against the last return's photos, flags new dents with estimated repair cost pulled from a parts database. Customer signs digitally. The "was that scratch there before?" argument ends forever.

The contract blind-spot scanner.

Every signed contract across the company gets ingested and continuously monitored. Flags auto-renewal clauses nobody was tracking, vendor rates drifting above market, missing indemnity, silent price escalators, and compliance gaps. The first scan usually finds six figures of leakage.

The deal intelligence platform.

Every lead, showing, offer, and close across your entire agent roster, synthesized. Each agent gets their own predictive dashboard. Brokerage-wide patterns compound over time. "This buyer's behavior matches your 2023 top-quartile pattern — prioritize." "Leads from Source X close 3x better than Source Y."

The customer truth machine.

Every email, support ticket, sales call, review, social mention, and NPS response — flowing into one pipeline. AI classifies, correlates, and synthesizes weekly. CEO gets a one-page state-of-the-customer drawn from 50,000+ signals. Better than any survey, because it's what customers actually said, unprompted.

Don't see your problem above?

We do completely custom builds for your specific problem.

The eight examples above are categories — what we can build looks different for every business. Bring us your actual workflow, your actual data, your actual constraints. We'll scope a build that fits your business, not someone else's template.

Tell us your problem →

Three stages. No mystery.

You walk away owning the system — code, documentation, infrastructure. Not a dependency on us.

01
Discovery

Tell us what you need.

Free consult. We dig into your actual workflow, your data, your constraints. You leave with a scoped proposal — whether we build it or someone else does.

Free
02
Build

We build it properly.

You see working software as it comes together — not status reports. Changes happen live. We pair-build with your team so knowledge transfers as we go. We take as long as the build needs, no more.

Scoped per build
03
Handoff

You own everything.

Code in your GitHub. Systems on your infra. Team trained to extend it. We stay on retainer if you want — or walk away with documentation that doesn't need us.

Optional retainer

Three ways to work with us.

Builds start at $5K. Final price depends on what you need — how complex, how custom, how deep it goes into your stack. Pick the model that fits how you want to operate. Every engagement starts with a free consult.

01
Build & handoff
One-time. You own it. You run it.
  • 2 payments — 50% at start, 50% on delivery
  • Full handoff: code, infra, documentation, runbook
  • You handle ongoing operations in-house
  • No retainer, no lock-in, no monthly fee
Best for teams with engineering capacity
03
Monthly contract
Build + management bundled, paid monthly
  • 12-month minimum commitment
  • Build cost amortized into monthly payments
  • Includes ongoing management throughout
  • No big upfront — easier on cash flow
Best for SMEs or first AI investment

Per-card prices are illustrative ranges for builds in that category. Your actual price depends on scope, complexity, and how custom the build needs to be. Quote provided after free consult.

Book a consult

Tell us what you're building.

What happens next

After you hit send.

— 01

We read your inquiry.

A real person — not a BDR, not a bot — reads what you wrote. We respond with either a consult booking link or an honest "here's why we're not the right fit."

— 02

Free consult.

Over Zoom. We dig into the problem, the data, the constraints. You ask everything. At the end, we tell you whether we can help and what it'd take.

— 03

Scoped proposal.

Written proposal with a specific scope, price, and risks. If it's a yes, we start. If it's a no, you keep the proposal for free.
