We build practical AI for small businesses: a receptionist that answers and books calls, text-back for missed calls, AI that reads quotes, receipts and forms, and assistants that draft estimates for a person to approve. Each one has a human handoff, a log, and a rules-based fallback when the AI isn't sure.
AI is good at three jobs in a small business: answering routine questions at any hour, turning messy input into clean data, and drafting a first version for a person to approve. It's bad at final prices, anything regulated, and any decision where a confident wrong answer costs you. We build right up to that line and no further.
In practice that looks like a phone that never goes to voicemail during a job, a stack of receipts that sorts itself, a quote that gets checked line by line, and an estimate draft waiting for you instead of a blank page. In every case a person can see what the AI did and take over.
For most one-to-five-person shops, the right first move is not AI voice. It's a text back to every missed call plus an alert to the owner's phone, which solves most of the same problem for far less. Add an AI receptionist when callers need to book or get routine answers, not when they need to be diagnosed or quoted. Here is the full cost comparison, including the three calls an AI should never take.
These are our own products, so the statuses are exact: what is live, what is in testing, and what is waiting on launch.
Answers from the business's own knowledge base, books open time slots and transfers urgent calls to a person. Outbound calls require recorded consent, honor a permanent do-not-call list, stay inside an 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. window and open with an AI disclosure. In private testing on our own business line.
Upload a service quote, from a roofer, a mechanic or a dentist, and AI checks it line by line for a fair price, with a fairness score and suggested questions to ask before you sign.
Photos or a walkthrough video in, a line-item estimate and a PDF proposal out. The working app is built and not launched yet; the site is taking a waitlist.
Written rules categorize most bank lines. AI only suggests a category for the leftovers, and only the merchant line and the amount ever leave the computer, never an account number or a balance.
Calls transfer to a human, drafts wait for approval, and nothing that commits your business goes out unreviewed.
Callers hear up front that they're talking with an AI assistant. No pretending.
No outbound calls or marketing texts without recorded consent, and do-not-call requests are honored permanently.
If the AI service is down or unsure, a simple rules engine handles the basics and labels what happened, so the tool keeps working.
Each request sends the model only what the task needs. Account numbers, balances and passwords stay home.
Every AI decision is recorded with what it saw and what it did, so you can review it and we can improve it.
Every project gets a set price for the initial build, then a monthly plan for only the services you need, priced to compete with the big names. Request a free quote and you'll know the full scope and price before work starts.
It answers when you can't: greets the caller, answers routine questions from information you approve, books an open time slot, takes a message, and transfers anything urgent or unusual to a person. You get a summary of every call.
Yes. We build the disclosure into the greeting. Callers who want a person can ask for one, and the system transfers them or takes a message for a callback.
Outbound AI calls and marketing texts generally need the customer's prior consent under federal rules, and business texting needs a registered sender. We build consent capture, a do-not-call list and calling-hour limits into the system. For your specific situation, check with your attorney.
We don't let AI set final prices. It can draft an estimate, explain your published price ranges or flag a quote that looks off, but a person approves anything that commits your business to a number.

AI services also carry usage costs, such as call minutes, texts and model calls, so those are part of the monthly plan and sized to your volume.
Mostly Anthropic's Claude through its API, chosen per task. We build so the model can be swapped without rebuilding the rest, and every tool keeps working on simple rules if the AI service is unavailable.
Tell us the calls, paperwork or messages that eat your day. We'll tell you honestly whether AI is the right tool for it, then send a written scope, a set build price and the monthly plan.
