AI & Automation

Let the computer handle the boring parts.

Most small businesses lose hours a week to repetitive work. Answering the same question. Copying data between two apps. Following up after a lead goes cold. I build simple systems that handle that quietly, so you can spend your time on things that actually need you.

What I build

Small pieces of software that save real time.

Chatbots and AI assistants

Answer questions on your website using your actual content and policies.

Lead capture and follow-up

Tag incoming leads, route them, and send the first reply automatically.

App connections

Gmail, QuickBooks, your CRM, your scheduling tool, all talking to each other.

Document automation

Quotes, invoices, intake forms, generated from a single source of truth.

Internal tools

Save yourself from living in spreadsheets. Simple web tools for your team.

Data cleanup

Dedupe, normalize, and reconcile records so the downstream tools work.

How it works

Audit first. Then build only what pays back.

  1. 01

    Audit

    Thirty minutes. I look at what you do every week and where the time goes.

  2. 02

    Proposal

    A short list of things worth automating, what each one saves, and what it costs.

  3. 03

    Build

    Usually one to three weeks per project. I check in as I go.

  4. 04

    Train and maintain

    I show you how it works. Optional monthly retainer for updates and tweaks.

Pricing

Two ways to work together.

Project-based

From $3,000

Good if you have a specific workflow to automate and want a one-time build.

  • Fixed scope and fixed price
  • One to three weeks to delivery
  • Training and documentation
  • No retainer required

Setup + retainer

Most common
$1,500 setup

Good if you want ongoing improvements. Core system first, then add and tune over time.

  • Core system setup up front
  • Monthly retainer for changes
  • Priority response during business hours
  • Cancel anytime

Monthly rate depends on scope. Typical retainers run $400 to $1,500 per month.
