I come into your business, map the highest-leverage AI opportunities, build the systems, train your people, and hand you the keys — with an Extended Runway so nothing dies on the vine after handoff. Two engagement sizes. Fixed prices. No surprises.
Most AI consulting shops show up, run a "discovery," and ship you a beautiful slide deck full of opportunities. Then they leave. You're holding a roadmap but no one to drive it — and six months later nothing has changed.
Every engagement runs the same four phases — scope determines whether it's 3 days or 5. Real systems running at the end, not a plan to make a plan.
We map your operations, bottlenecks, and data flows in week one. I'm looking for the 3–5 places where AI can buy you the most time or money — not the flashiest features, the most impactful ones. You walk out of week one with a clear build list even if we stop there.
Weeks two and three are heads-down execution. I build the automations, AI workflows, and integrations we scoped — wired directly into the tools your team already uses. No new platforms to learn unless a new platform is exactly what you need. You see working software, not mockups.
Week four is about your people. I run focused sessions — not generic AI training, but training on the exact systems we built for your business. Your team leaves knowing what to run, how to maintain it, and when to call an audible. Ownership transfers on day 30.
You get documented systems, a training library, and built-in follow-through support after handoff: 30 days for The Spark (2 check-in calls), 60 days for The Foundation (3 check-in calls) — plus async support throughout. Questions get answered. Things that need tuning get tuned. Nothing is left to rot. Most consultants call day one "done" — this is what makes these engagements different. Extended Runway retainer ($3,500/mo) available if you want ongoing support beyond the included window.
Every engagement — Spark or Foundation — is complete: audit, build, training, and follow-through. No line-item surprises.
A structured, week-one deep-dive into how your business actually runs — tools, team workflows, data, bottlenecks, and opportunity gaps. You get a written AI opportunities brief, prioritized and scoped.
Working automations, AI workflows, and integrations — built specifically for your team and your stack. Not plug-and-play templates. Purpose-built for the opportunities we found in your audit.
Live, hands-on training with your actual team on the exact systems we built — not a generic "AI basics" workshop. Everyone walks out knowing how to run what we shipped.
Every system we build gets documented — how it works, how to maintain it, what to do when something breaks. Your team isn't dependent on me to keep things running.
Async support built into every engagement: 30 days for The Spark, 60 days for The Foundation. Questions answered. Tuning done. If something breaks or a new opportunity surfaces, you're not on your own. This is the follow-through that makes the engagement actually stick. Extended Runway retainer ($3,500/mo) picks up where the included window leaves off.
You own everything we build — code, prompts, automations, documentation. There's no lock-in, no monthly fee to keep your own systems running. You leave with keys, not a rental agreement.
Handoff day is where most engagements go to die. The consultant is done. The team is overwhelmed. The new systems get quietly abandoned within a month. This is the exact problem the built-in follow-through runway — and the optional Extended Runway retainer — fixes.
The Spark and The Foundation run fully remote or as compressed in-person intensives — same outcome, different pace.
Async-first with weekly live calls. The standard format for The Spark and The Foundation — no travel, no disruption to your existing operations. Works for any team, anywhere.
I fly out to you and we run The Spark or Foundation as a compressed on-site sprint — move faster, align faster, train the room in real time. Travel billed at cost. Best for leadership teams that want to see the build happen live.
Two fixed-scope engagements. Everything included — audit, build, training, documentation, and the follow-through runway. Every engagement begins with a $1,200 Discovery Sprint to scope the work before we start.
Every engagement begins with a paid $1,200 Discovery Sprint — a structured half-day that maps your operations, identifies the highest-leverage opportunities, and produces a clear build plan with a fixed-price quote. If we proceed, the $1,200 applies toward your engagement. If not, you keep the map.
After The Spark or Foundation, engagements can also convert to ongoing remote contracting — a natural extension, not a restart.
These engagements aren't for people who want to explore the idea of AI. They're for operators who've decided it's time and want to do it right — with someone who executes, not just advises.
Scope. The Spark is a 3-day engagement — right for businesses with a clear, focused opportunity and a lean team. The Foundation is 5 days and covers broader operations, more build tracks, and more complex team training. We nail down which one fits during the Discovery Sprint.
It's a paid $1,200 half-day that maps your operations and produces a concrete build plan before any engagement starts. It protects both sides — you don't commit to a $12,000 or $22,000 engagement before you know exactly what you're getting, and I don't start building until I've seen how your business actually runs. If we proceed, the $1,200 applies toward your engagement fee.
It depends on what fits your stack and your team's capabilities. I'm not locked to any single platform — I pick the tools that solve the problem with the least long-term maintenance burden. We talk through this in the audit, so nothing gets built that your team can't run.
No. I build for the humans who will operate it, not for engineers. Training sessions are hands-on and practical — your team doesn't need to understand how something is built to run it well. Most of the systems I build are zero-code from the user's side.
Yes — and it's the most natural path. After handoff you can add the Extended Runway retainer ($3,500/mo) for ongoing async support, or transition to remote contracting if you want me operating what we built full-time. We know each other's working style, the systems are already built — it's an extension rather than a restart.
I fly out. The in-person intensive option runs The Spark or Foundation scope as a compressed on-site sprint. Travel is billed at cost. It's faster, more collaborative, and some teams just get more out of working in the room. See the intensives page for how that works.
Start with a Discovery Call — I'll ask about your operations, your team, and what's costing you the most. You'll walk away with a clear picture of whether The Spark or The Foundation is the right fit, even if we don't work together.
