AI operations for founder-led businesses, $1M to $5M
Put two numbers in the slip. You get what the bottleneck costs you each year. It is the first number I put on the table in an audit.
Think the lost hours sit with your team instead? Switch the slip to count them. The audit maps both.
Proof of the number
That $78,000 is a worked example. These are estimates from audits I performed, with the working shown.
Performance ad agency, about $1M a year
a year of revenue behind a ceiling of about 20 clients
Energy services company, planning 3 to 5 times growth
a week of work running through one founder
What an audit gives you
Whether or not you hire me again. Any developer or team can build from them.
Process maps and plain English SOPs, written from interviews with you and your team.
Every finding points to where it showed up, so you can check it yourself.
Each opportunity priced per year, including the hours the business waits on you.
Which of your current tools can connect, and the first builds named. On the full audit, one ships live that week.
Is this for you?
Each one stands alone. You keep everything and decide on implementation with the real findings in hand.
2 to 3 hours with you. Delivered same day or next day.
4 to 6 hours of interviews. One week start to finish.
8 to 15 hours of interviews. Two weeks start to finish.
Implementation runs $7,500 to $15,000, fixed scope, and is quoted only after an audit. See payment terms and add-ons
Proof of work
I do not ask a business to adopt anything I have not already put into production on my own operation. These run without me watching them.

Who you would work with
I have spent more than ten years in operations, most of it on the marketing and SEO side. That means I know how a business actually wins customers and what breaks when it grows faster than its systems.
Now I use that to map how your work runs and build what takes it off you. I work with US businesses remotely, and I do every interview myself.
More about me →No. The audit stands alone. You keep the process maps, SOPs and roadmap, and any developer or team can build from them. Implementation is quoted only after the audit, at a fixed scope, so you decide with the real findings in hand instead of a guess.
The $750 audit takes two to three hours with you and nobody else. The full audit runs eight to fifteen hours of interviews across you, your leads and key staff, so one person on your side coordinates the schedule and tool access. I handle everything else.
I start with what you already pay for. For each tool I check whether it has an API, an MCP connection or an export path, because a recommendation that cannot connect to your stack is a guess. New software only gets named when your current tools cannot do the job.
The $750 audit is delivered the same day or next day. The Quick Assessment takes a week and the full audit takes two. On the full audit, one working automation ships live during the audit week, so you see something running and not only a report.
