AI for small business, done for you

Put AI to work in your business. We'll show you where.

Everyone says "use AI." We actually do it for you. We look at how you run your business today, find the hours you lose to busywork, and build the site, app, or automation that takes it off your plate. Fixed quote, plain English, live in days.

Sound familiar?

The stuff quietly costing you time and customers.

You don't need to learn to code, hire an agency, or figure out AI on your own. You need someone who'll look at how you actually work, point AI at the slow parts, and hand you something that runs.

🤖

AI feels out of reach

Everyone says use AI. Nobody shows you where it fits in a shop, a lounge, a crew, or a front desk. We do that part, then build it for you or teach you to drive it.

🗂️

Stuck doing it by hand

Retyping the same data, chasing paper, answering the same five questions, copy and pasting between tools. Work a simple app or an AI step should be doing for you.

🌐

No site, or one you can't update

Nothing to send people, or a website a developer built and then disappeared on. You're stuck waiting on someone else.

Where AI fits

What AI actually does in a small business

Not a chatbot bolted onto your homepage. Specific jobs, inside the way you already work. Here are nine we build. If yours isn't here, it's probably close to one of them.

Any business with customers

Answer the same questions without answering them

Hours, prices, "do you do X," "where are you," the refund policy. Same five questions, all day, by text, DM, and phone.
With AI: an assistant that knows only your business answers them instantly on your site or by text, and hands anything unusual to you.
AI Assistant add-on
Contractors · Shops · Service pros

Quotes and invoices that write themselves

A customer describes the job in a text. You retype it into a quote, then into an invoice, then chase the payment.
With AI: the request comes in, AI drafts the quote from your price list, you tap approve, the invoice and payment link go out. You never retype it.
Workflow automation · App work
Clubs · Lounges · Gyms · Studios

Members who manage themselves

Who's paid, who's lapsed, who's at the door. Spreadsheets, screenshots, and a lot of "let me check."
With AI: sign up, pay dues, scan in. Ask "who's behind this month?" and get a list, not a search. (Shipped for DROBE Stogies, below.)
App work · AI Assistant
Restaurants · Caterers · Food trucks

Catering and event requests, sorted

Event inquiries land in email, Instagram, and voicemail. Half get answered late, some never.
With AI: every request lands in one place, AI pulls out date, headcount, and budget, drafts your reply, and flags the ones worth chasing first.
Workflow automation
Any office · Nonprofits · Admin-heavy work

Reports that build themselves

Every week or month, someone exports two files, reconciles them by hand, and rebuilds the same spreadsheet.
With AI: drop the files on a page, get the finished report back. Rules for the math, AI for the summary paragraph. Minutes, not an afternoon.
Starter Build · Workflow automation
Salons · Barbers · Trades · Anyone who books

Booking without the back and forth

"Are you free Thursday?" "What about 3?" "Actually can we do Friday?" Ten messages per appointment.
With AI: a booking page that knows your real availability, confirms, reminds, and reschedules by text. You show up to a full calendar.
Websites · Workflow automation
Tailors · Custom makers · Anyone with a form

Paper forms that file themselves

Measurements, orders, or intake written on paper, then retyped into a spreadsheet, then looked up again next visit.
With AI: the form lives on your phone, saves every client, and re-orders in seconds. (Shipped for DROBE, below.)
App work
Any owner who has to write

Emails, captions, and follow-ups in your voice

Customer emails, social posts, review replies, and reminders sit undone because writing them takes time you don't have.
With AI: a setup trained on how you talk, drafting the follow-up, the caption, and the review reply. You edit and send. Or we coach you to run it yourself.
Coaching · Workflow automation
Anyone with an inbox

An inbox that sorts itself

Leads, invoices, vendor emails, and junk all in one pile. The important one gets found three days late.
With AI: incoming mail gets read, labeled, and routed. Leads go to a list, invoices to a folder, and you get one short daily rundown.
Workflow automation

One rule we stick to: if a plain script can do the job for free, we use the script. AI goes where there's reading, sorting, or writing involved. That keeps your monthly running cost near zero and the results predictable.

What we do

Four ways we help. AI runs through all of them.

Whether it's a site, an app, an automation, or coaching, we ask the same question first: where can AI take work off your plate? Every project gets a fixed written quote before any work starts. Tell us what you need, answer our short scoping questionnaire, and you always see the number before we build.

New here? Start small

The Starter Build: $500

One screen, one job, live in about a week. It's the cheapest way to find out what working with us feels like. And if you grow into a bigger build within 60 days, the full $500 counts toward it.

Build it new, or rescue what's broken

Apps built around how you really work: orders, members, check-ins, invoices, with AI handling the reading, sorting, and drafting inside them. Have an app a developer left half finished? We diagnose it and take it the rest of the way.

Cut the busywork

We map where your time leaks, then automate it: plain scripts for the repeat work, AI for the parts that need reading or judgment. You get hours back every week.

Learn to use AI yourself

Rather drive the tools than hand them off? We'll teach you the prompting and the practical setup for your business, one on one, on your real work. You leave each session with a cheat sheet.

Premium add-on

An AI assistant trained on your business

Two helpers in one. Your customers get answers the moment they ask, any time of day, instead of waiting on you. And you stop repeating the same questions all day long, because it already knows your customers, your policies, and your playbook. It only ever knows what's yours, and it hands off to a human when it should.

"When does this member's membership renew?" "Who's behind on dues this month?" "What's our refund policy?"

How it works

Built around the hurdles you actually hit

The usual reasons small businesses put this off, and how we take each one off the table.

01
"I don't even know where to start."

Just tell us the problem

A short form or a quick call. If it's a fit, we send a private scoping questionnaire, and your quote comes straight from it.

02
"What if it costs way more than I think?"

Fixed price, up front

You see the plan, the price, and what's included before any work starts.

03
"I don't have months to wait."

Built in days

Quick turnaround, and you review along the way with your included edits.

04
"What if I'm left stranded after?"

You own it

It ships, you run it, and we're a message away when you need more.

What that looks like

A few real situations we take on:
→
A members lounge that needs people to sign up, pay their dues, and scan in at the door. (Shipped. That's DROBE Stogies, above.)
→
A clothing brand measuring clients by hand and retyping it all into a spreadsheet.
→
A shop buried in back-and-forth booking and quote emails all day, wanting AI to draft the replies.
→
An owner who keeps hearing "use AI" and wants someone to show them where it fits, then build it.
Straight pricing

You'll always know the number

  • →
    How the number arrives. Short form → a scoping questionnaire built around exactly what you need → a fixed written quote before any work starts. We only print prices that never move. Everything else is quoted to you, in writing.
  • →
    Fixed package, fixed price. Each build comes with a set number of edit rounds, named up front.
  • →
    Changes are quoted, never sprung. Past your included rounds, or anything outside the agreed scope, gets its own small quote before it happens, only if you want it.
  • →
    Coaching is hourly. "Use AI yourself" sessions are $125/hr, booked when you reach out.
  • →
    Simple terms. 50% to start, 50% on delivery. No retainers you can't get out of.
Let's go

Tell us what's slowing you down

Two minutes. We'll tell you if we can help, where AI fits, and what it'd take. If it's a fit, you'll get our scoping questionnaire and a fixed written quote from your answers. No pressure, no jargon.
