AI agents for the businesses that run the real economy

Our AI agents answer your phones,find and close your leads,and run your back office.

The lab — we build

Systems built for how you operate.

We untangle the disconnected tools you run on and ship production systems that pay for themselves. You own every one.

The workshop — we teach

Clarity before you commit a dollar.

Executive workshops, an AI-readiness checklist, and The Foundry — field notes from operators who've actually built it.

Our mission

We're building a future where every small business — the restaurants, the trades, the agencies, the crews that run the real economy — has the same AI the largest companies take for granted.

We research in the field

Frontier AI is studied in labs and shipped to the Fortune 500. We learn where the work happens — the route, the shop floor, the front desk — and publish what we find.

We build for operators

Our systems work alongside the owner and the crew — leverage for the people who already run the business, not a machine that pretends to replace them.

Research and products, co-designed

Every system we ship teaches the next one. Products keep our research honest; research keeps our products ahead.

Built for the industries
technology forgot.

Operationally complex small businesses — crews in the field, phones that never stop, thin margins, and a dozen tools that don't talk to each other.

What we build for
small businesses.

Nothing speculative. Practical systems that capture revenue, save hours, and show you the numbers — most of which pay for themselves inside a year.

Voice AI for phone orders & inquiries

Answers every call, takes orders, books appointments, and routes the rest — so a ringing phone never costs you a sale or interrupts service again.

Hear it live — Dinealog

Cross-system integration

POS, scheduling, inventory, and accounting stitched into one data layer and one dashboard — so you stop being the integration layer between seven tools.

Real-time P&L & margin visibility

Daily margins by location, product, and channel — so variance shows up the same day it happens, not at the month-end close when it's too late to act.

Back-office & workflow automation

The repetitive data entry, reconciliation, scheduling, and reporting that eats your week — handled quietly in the background so your team stays on real work.

Lead-gen & follow-up systems

Capture, qualify, and follow up with every inquiry around the clock — no lead sits cold in an inbox, and no quote takes three days to go out.

No commitment

Ownership doesn't stop at go-live

You own it outright.
We keep it running.

Most builders ship a system and disappear. We operate what we build — monitoring it, tuning it, and improving it as your business changes. Our systems run live in production, getting sharper every week. The work doesn't end at launch; that's when it starts compounding.

The Method — how the lab works

From first call to live system, in weeks.

One method we run every engagement through — and sharpen with each one. The patterns, integrations, and guardrails from each build carry into the next, so the work compounds instead of starting from scratch. You see the cost and the outcome before we build, and we don't leave when it goes live.

01

Diagnose

We audit how your business actually runs — not your tech stack. We find the root cause, not the symptom, and report exactly what to fix first.

02

Design

A custom blueprint with scope, timeline, and expected ROI in writing — before any build begins. No generic templates, no surprises.

03

Build

Production systems deployed in weeks, not months, integrated with the tools you already pay for. Your team trained to run it.

04

Operate

We don't hand off and disappear. We run what we built — monitoring, tuning, and extending it as your business grows. You own the system; we keep it sharp.

Real systems, real returns.

A diagnostic only matters if the build pays off. Here's what that looks like for businesses like yours.

Go-to-market

10× top-of-funnel

A lead-gen agent that runs outreach and follow-up around the clock — multiplying the funnel and tripling meetings set.

Staffing

3× bid submissions

A sourcing agent that screens and matches candidates the moment requirements come in — so the same team bids on far more.

Services company

60 hours a month, back

Payroll agents that run timesheets, reconciliation, and invoicing end to end — saving ~60 hours a month per 100 employees.
