The work that should already be automated

Every small business has the same silent tax: someone's job is half-data-entry. Here's where we most often replace that work:

If one of these is eating your week, it's a candidate for automation.

Three Approaches, Right-Sized

We pick the lightest tool that actually solves the problem. No selling you a $50k build when a $5k integration does it.

Lightweight Integrations

When your existing tools mostly do the job but don't talk, we wire them together. Fastest payback.

  • Zapier / Make / n8n builds
  • Custom webhook routing
  • API-to-API glue code
  • Typically $2k–$8k

Custom Workflow Apps

Purpose-built tools when off-the-shelf won't cut it: multi-step approvals, role logic, audit trails, branded portals.

  • Multi-level approval chains
  • Role-based permissions
  • Complete audit logging
  • Typically $10k–$40k

Internal Dashboards & Admin Tools

Replace the spreadsheet that runs your business with a real tool. One dashboard pulls data from every system you use.

  • Unified operations dashboard
  • Custom CRUD admin panels
  • Reporting & export tooling
  • Typically $8k–$30k

Proof: what we've already built

These are in production today. They're the same patterns we use for any automation work:

If you have a similar pattern — government API integration, scheduled reminders, approval chains — we've already solved the hard parts.

Who we automate for

When to pick custom over Zapier

Zapier and Make are great for a handful of triggers. They stop being great when:

We start with the cheapest path that works. If Zapier solves it, we'll tell you.

Our Process

01

Audit the Current Workflow

We map what you do today, step by step. 60 minutes, free. Usually half the steps turn out to be unnecessary — we tell you which.

02

ROI-First Proposal

Every automation we propose shows you the hours it saves and the payback period. If the math doesn't work, we don't build it.

03

Build, Test, Document

Built in sprints with weekly demos. Every automation ships with documentation you can actually read.

04

Monitor & Evolve

Automations fail silently when third parties change APIs. We monitor yours and fix them before you notice.

Common Questions

How do I know what's worth automating?

Three tests: (1) Is it done the same way every time? (2) Does it take more than 30 minutes per week in total? (3) Is a person doing it instead of deciding? If yes to all three, automate it.

What's the typical ROI timeline?

Lightweight integrations usually pay back in 2–4 months. Custom workflow apps pay back in 6–12 months and keep paying every year after. We show you the math in the proposal.

Do you use AI in these automations?

When it actually helps — document classification, email triage, extracting data from PDFs. We don't bolt AI onto things that don't need it. If a rule-based script is cheaper and more reliable, that's what you get.

Can you automate something that involves email?

Yes. Common examples: inbound support emails routed to the right person, invoice PDFs parsed into accounting, automated follow-up sequences, form submissions that create tasks in your project tool.

What if my existing tool doesn't have an API?

There's almost always a path. We use browser-automation or RPA for legacy systems that don't expose data cleanly. It's less elegant but it works.

Who owns the automations you build?

You do. Code, configuration, credentials — all yours. We document everything so you're never locked in.
