How it works

Look. Plan. Build and run.

Most of our work starts with a business that already runs. We learn how it works today, plan the change around your 100-day plan or exit date, then build it and keep it running.

The steps

From the business you have to the one that runs itself.

  1. Paper invoices, an order book and a desk phone in a distribution office, beside a laptop mapping the current process.

    Look.

    Tell us about the business. We look at how the work gets done today: the tools, the paper, the phone calls.

  2. A written 100-day plan with a timeline chart on a walnut table, next to a tablet showing the same roadmap.

    Plan.

    You get a written plan and the price: what changes first, what AI takes on, and how it lines up with your 100-day plan or sale date.

  3. Hands at a keyboard wiring an automation workflow that connects site, sales, payments and operations, with a data migration running on a laptop.

    Build.

    We move your data over, wire one AI-first stack and show you working versions. Nothing goes live without your OK.

  4. A trades business office at night, a monitor showing live status checks and an AI assistant answering customers, work boots and a hard hat on the shelf.

    Run.

    We host it, watch it, fix what breaks and keep making it better. Payments leave test mode only when you approve.

Guardrails

Same rules. Every change.

Nothing goes live without your OK.

You see it working first. You decide.

A backup before every change.

If something’s wrong, we roll it back.

Payments stay in test mode until you approve.

No real money moves until you say so.

What changes, what it costs your customers, and anything that moves money or goes out in your name.

Three ways in

Scale. Transform. Launch.

We lead with businesses that already run. Our operating history is in running them. Every engagement is scoped; pricing comes with your plan.

Scale a small business.

You bought it, or you built it. We move it off paper, phone calls and old software onto one AI-first stack, timed to your 100-day plan or your exit date.

How deals work

Cash, split or equity.

Three ways to pay, built for businesses that already make money. We pick the one that fits your deal, your lender and your plan.

Cash

Fixed fee. Clean cap table.

A launch fee and a monthly fee to run and improve it. Easy to budget into a 100-day plan, and simple to explain to a lender or investors.

Split

Lower fee. Share of the gain.

A reduced fee plus a share of the measured gain we create, for a set term. Not a cut of your total revenue. We get paid when the results show up.

Equity

Our work for a stake.

For the right business, we do the work in exchange for equity, alongside the owner or searcher. A cash co-invest is possible, case by case.

FAQ

How it works, answered.

What do you need from me to start?
A few lines about the business and where it is: starting, running, just bought or getting ready to sell.
Can you work inside my 100-day plan?
Yes. We build the tech side of the plan with you and time it to your milestones.
How fast does it happen?
It depends on the business. You get a realistic plan after the first conversation, not a guaranteed date.
What happens after it’s live?
We keep it running and keep improving it. On a split deal, we track the gain we agreed to measure.
Can anything go live without my approval?
No. Nothing goes live without your OK, and we take a backup before every change.
What if something breaks?
Every request gets an immediate AI response, and we guarantee a response within four hours, day or night.
