Boutique AI consultancy · San Antonio + Austin
AI, from brainstorm to production.
We find the two or three places AI will actually pay for itself in your business, build them into the workflows you already run, and hand you something your own team owns.

What this is
A small firm, on purpose.
Most companies don't need an AI strategy. They need two or three specific things built well, integrated properly, and documented so they keep working. That's the whole business.
Brainstorm through implementation
We're in the room for the whiteboard session and still there when it goes to production. No handing a slide deck to a vendor and wishing you luck.
Vendor-neutral
We don't resell anyone's platform and take no referral fees. The recommendation you get is the one we'd make if we were paying the bill.
You own it afterward
Runbooks, documentation and training are deliverables, not afterthoughts. You should be able to fire us and keep running.
The Ten
What small and mid-sized businesses are actually implementing.
Ranked by how often companies in this market ask us to build it — not by how interesting it is. Each one includes the part most vendors leave out.
- 01
Support triage & deflection
An assistant grounded in your own documentation answers routine questions and hands everything else to a human with the context already attached.
- 02
Lead response & qualification
Inbound forms, calls and emails get enriched, scored and answered in minutes instead of days, with a draft reply waiting for whoever closes.
- 03
Document & data extraction
Invoices, purchase orders, inspection reports, insurance forms and bids read automatically, fields validated, then pushed into your system of record.
- 04
Meeting capture into your CRM
Calls transcribed, summarized, and written back as notes, next steps and owners without anyone typing after the call.
- 05
Internal knowledge assistant
One place to ask what the company already knows: SOPs, price sheets, past proposals, warranty terms, safety procedure, HR policy.
- 06
Proposal, quote & estimate drafting
First-draft scopes, bids and quotes assembled from the work you have already won, plus the specs of the job in front of you.
- 07
Governed marketing content
Not “AI writes our blog.” A pipeline with real briefs, brand-voice constraints, a required human edit, and automatic repurposing to email and social.
- 08
Forecasting on your own history
Small, unglamorous models over your sales and job data, driving staffing, purchasing and cash-flow decisions.
- 09
Back-office agents with approvals
Payables matching, reconciliation, onboarding checklists and scheduling run by an agent that stops and asks before anything irreversible.
- 10
Voice AI on the phones
After-hours answering, appointment booking and call summaries, with a clean handoff to a person the moment the call turns real.
How an engagement runs
Five phases, in order.
You can stop after any one of them and still have something worth what you paid for it.
Discovery workshop
Half a day with your operators, not only your owner. We map how work actually moves and where the hours and the money leak out.
Opportunity map
A ranked shortlist with effort plotted against impact, a plain-language business case for each, and an explicit “not yet” list. Yours to keep either way.
Pilot
One use case, built production-shaped on your real data, measured against a number we agreed on before starting.
Implementation
Into the stack you already run — your CRM, your ERP, your phone system, your permission model. Not a demo in a sandbox.
Handoff
Documentation, runbooks, guardrails and training for the people who will operate it, so it keeps working when we are not in the room.
Pricing
Fixed fees. Quoted before we start.
No hourly billing and no open-ended retainers on discovery work. You will know the number and the deliverable before you sign anything.

How we work
Including when the answer is no.
- Your data stays yoursNo training on your data, no lock-in, and an export path for everything we build. Data handling is written into the agreement, not promised verbally.
- No black boxesIf we cannot explain how it works to your operations manager, we are not finished building it.
- Sometimes it isn't AIOften the real fix is a cleaner process, a broken integration, or a spreadsheet nobody maintains. We will say so, in writing, even when it shortens the engagement.
- Measured or it didn't happenEvery build gets a number agreed in advance. If it does not move, we say that too.
- Exit-ready by designYou should be able to end the relationship and keep operating without us. That is the test of a real handoff.
Service area
The I-35 corridor.
On-site across Greater San Antonio and Austin, and remote for everything that does not need a room. Being local matters on this work — discovery goes badly over video.
