Three ways to work with us.

One system

One system built start to finish inside your own accounts, with training and a written playbook.

Two or three systems

Operating Build

$15,000to $35,000, fixed

Systems planned together so they share data and your team learns them once. Most owners start here.

After either build, optional

Managed AI

$1,500to $3,500 a month

Every system checked and tuned, one new workflow a month and a written numbers report. Three-month minimum, then month to month.

What moves the price.

Every quote lands inside the ranges above. Where it lands depends on four things, and you see the exact number before anything starts.

  1. How many systemsOne system is a Single Build. Two or three planned together is an Operating Build.
  2. How many tools they connect toA system that touches your phone, CRM and calendar takes more setup than one that lives in a single tool.
  3. What we start fromPrice sheets, scripts, past work and documents. The more we build from scratch, the higher the number.
  4. How many people use itMore locations, teams or roles means more rules, training and testing.

The systems we build.

Any one can be a Single Build, or one of two or three in an Operating Build.

Example Operating Build

A 14-person service company near Charlotte

The profit map found after-hours calls going unanswered, quotes with no follow-up and an owner building reports by hand every week. Illustrative example, not a quote for your business.

Operating Build, fixed$24,000
Required return, first year$96,000 or more

300% minimum return in the first year. The rule every quote has to pass.

A build only goes in your quote if your profit map shows it can return at least four times its price within the first year, in new booked revenue or payroll saved, using your own numbers. If nothing clears it, we recommend nothing.

Software. No markup. If a system needs a tool you don't have, the vendor bills you directly in your name, and your quote lists the cost first.

Founding offer. Two founding spots get 20% off any Single or Operating Build. In return, we publish your before and after numbers.

Your data. Everything is built in your own accounts. We never host or store your customer data. We never train AI on your data, and we only build on business-grade AI services that don't either.

A free video call. We find the one or two leaks costing you the most, and if a build clears the 300% rule, you get a fixed quote in writing.
