His name's Hank. Don't take my word for it — call (470) 467-7724 right now and he'll pick up. He answers, listens, qualifies the caller, books the appointment, and texts you a summary before they're back in their truck. Live, every call, in production.
Hank, on the line.

Hank is answering right now
(470) 467-7724Pretend you're calling a med spa, a roofer, or any local business. Hank will greet you, ask about what you need, qualify whether it's a real lead, and offer to book you a consult. The whole flow — in production, on a real phone line.
Free. No commitment. Hank knows it's a demo.
Here's what happens on the call
No menus, no "press 1 for sales." Hank opens the call sounding like a real receptionist who already knows your business.
Asks about the caller's business, what they need, how urgent it is. Captures the parts that matter for follow-up — and skips the parts that don't.
Sends a calendar link by text, drops the lead into your inbox with a summary, transfers to you if the caller asks for a real person.
The receptionist is the simplest thing we build
It's the entry point because it's the same for every business — answer the calls you'd miss. Every other workflow is different in each business, which is what the audit is for. We sit down, look at where the manual hours actually go, and figure out which ones have a clean solution today, which ones need to be researched, and which ones aren't worth automating yet.
Often a clean fit
Workflows where we've built similar systems before and the integrations exist. Scoped during the audit, shipped in the build.
Needs investigation first
Workflows where the path isn't obvious. We research what's feasible, what it would cost, and whether automation is even the right answer — then tell you straight before quoting.
The audit is where we figure out which list yours falls into — before any money changes hands.

The Problem
I see the same problems in almost every audit. If two of these describe your week, the call is worth 30 minutes.
Every new client means someone on your team re-entering the same data and sending the same emails they've written 200 times.
Your team spends the first two hours every morning answering the same questions that could have been handled automatically overnight.
It leaves one system, gets reformatted, waits for approval, gets re-entered somewhere else — a five-minute job that takes two days.
"Does anyone have the latest [X]?" — buried in someone's inbox, a forgotten folder, or a Slack thread from three months ago.
The real process lives in someone's head, not in writing — so every new person starts from scratch and costs you 40 hours of training time.
Someone is manually copying the same data between your CRM, your project tool, and your billing system — every single day.

Services
Service businesses · Property managers · Professional firms
Intake, scheduling, follow-ups, document routing — work your team does the same way every single time. I build the system that does it instead so that time goes somewhere else.
Any business fielding repetitive questions
An AI layer that knows your answers, your tone, and when to hand something off to a person. Routine questions get handled automatically. Your team handles the ones that actually need judgment.
Teams running on disconnected tools
The gaps the standard tools never fill. Document extraction, connected workflows, internal dashboards built around your operation rather than a generic template.

Use Cases
Real problem types, representative outcomes. The numbers are targets for each workflow type — not figures from a specific past engagement.
A residential property manager was handling all maintenance requests by email — tenants emailed in, the owner triaged manually, forwarded to vendors, then chased for updates. Every request was a separate thread that could get lost.
Operations Automation
An 8-person consulting firm fielded roughly 60 client emails per day — billing questions, project status checks, scheduling requests. The same questions, answered manually, every single morning by whoever got to their inbox first.
Customer Support AI
A 14-person home services company ran client onboarding across email, a shared Google Drive, and a spreadsheet three different people maintained separately. New clients fell through cracks. New staff took weeks to learn where anything was.

Approach
A working call — not a discovery intake form. We go through your actual workflows, find where the hours are going, and I tell you what I'd build and in what order. You don't need to prepare anything.
Deliverable
Verbal recommendations during the call
Within 48 hours you get a written document: what to automate, what order to do it in, rough cost estimate, and what you'd get back. Yours to keep regardless of what you decide next.
Deliverable
PDF report — yours forever
If we move forward, I build it end-to-end. No handoffs, no contractors brought in on your project. Most first builds take 2–4 weeks. You end up with a working system — not a document describing one.
Deliverable
Shipped automation in production
AI systems need upkeep. Models improve, APIs change, and your workflows evolve. The optional monthly retainer keeps everything running — bug fixes, prompt updates, integration maintenance, and a direct line when something needs attention. Most clients pay 10–15% of the build fee annually.

Pricing
Other AI receptionists sell you software — a $30/mo subscription you configure yourself, hope works, and replace when it doesn't. We sell you Hank, configured for your specific business by hand, supported by a real person, and tuned over time. The price reflects what you get.

The math (real numbers from real shops)
Most service businesses miss 30–40% of calls during the day (busy techs, multi-tasking) and 90%+ after hours. Average ticket is anywhere from $300 (residential plumbing) to $15,000 (roof replacement). Here's what that looks like with Hank vs. without:
| Business type | Calls/mo | Missed | Hank captures | Added revenue/mo | Hank cost | ROI |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plumber, residential | 200 | 40% | 60% | $12,000 | $997 | 12× |
| HVAC, mid-size | 100 | 35% | 60% | $14,000 | $997 | 14× |
| Roofing, storm chaser | 50 | 50% | 60% | $36,000 | $1,997 | 18× |
| Med spa, single location | 150 | 30% | 70% | $9,500 | $997 | 9× |
| Pest control, recurring | 80 | 40% | 60% | $6,400 | $497 | 13× |
Figures are conservative averages. The free audit produces a projection specific to your business.
The $30/mo alternative on the same plumber: captures ~20% of missed calls, doesn't qualify or book, adds ~$800/mo. You're saving $967/mo on Hank's retainer to leave $11,200/mo on the table. $30/mo is the most expensive choice you can make.
Beyond the phone
Most shops don't just have a phone problem. They have a stack of disconnected tools, leads falling through cracks, and reports nobody runs. We build the workflows that close those gaps — for the same kind of money you'd pay one part-time admin, you get a system that runs 24/7 and doesn't forget.

Whatever your trade needs
The thing most clients don't expect: the bug detection and fraud detection run on everything we ship. Most weeks we've patched the issue before anyone notices it broke. You get the report after, not the panic.
These are real examples — most of them already running for clients. The audit identifies which would move the biggest number in your shop. Custom workflows live in the build or the retainer depending on scope; we'll tell you which on the call.

About
I'm a builder who automates obsessively. Over the last few years I've shipped multiple consumer mobile apps, a suite of more than twenty production web tools, and a personal "Builder OS" — a unified portal that consolidates all my projects, financial operations, and recurring workflows into one automated system.
It tracks revenue across products, manages deployments, runs scheduled AI workflows, automates the admin work that would otherwise eat my evenings, and replaces what would otherwise be a dozen disconnected tools. It's not theoretical. It runs every day.
That same systems thinking is what I bring to small businesses buried under disconnected tools, manual data entry, and processes nobody has examined in years. My background is financial services operations and fraud analysis — where a broken process doesn't just waste time, it creates liability. That instinct for catching failure points before they become problems is what I bring to every automation build.
The result: an AI consultancy run by an operator, not a slide deck.

FAQ
The fee is sized against what the work is actually worth — not a flat rate or hourly billing. Builds start at $8,500 for the receptionist scope and run up to $60,000+ for full multi-workflow systems. The exact fee is sized against what the manual work is currently costing you — whether that's an employee's salary, your own hours, or a role you'd otherwise need to hire for. The audit produces a projection specific to your situation so you can see the math before committing to anything.
The retainer is optional, but most clients keep it. AI models improve, third-party APIs change, and your workflows evolve — the retainer covers bug fixes, prompt updates, and integration maintenance so the system stays current. Three tiers depending on involvement: standard support ($400/mo), active management ($800/mo), and full managed service ($1,500/mo).
No. I handle the build end-to-end. Your team's job is to understand your own workflows and review the result before it goes live. You learn the new process — not the code behind it.
The written report lands in your inbox within 48 hours of our first call. Most first automations are live within 2–4 weeks of kicking off a build. You'll see real time savings on day one of deployment.
We start with the free audit to map your workflows and find where the time is going. From there, I run a deeper working session, use that to define the exact scope, and give you a fixed-price proposal before any work starts. No surprises on scope or cost.
No new software required unless it genuinely fits your situation. Most builds use Make, n8n, or Zapier for automation — and OpenAI or Claude for AI components. If you already have tools you like, I work around them.
The 30-day post-launch window covers any issues from real-world use. I also build with error alerting baked in — you'll be notified before a broken automation becomes a business problem. Clients on the monthly retainer get ongoing coverage beyond that window.
Yes. Automations move data between your own tools — I don't store or hold your data. Where third-party AI services are used, I apply privacy-first configurations. I can also work within specific requirements your industry has.
Service businesses, professional firms, property managers, and growing teams — typically 5 to 50 employees — that are paying someone to do work their software should handle. If you're not sure whether this applies to you, the 30-minute audit will answer that for both of us.
