Service

AI agents for your business, inside walls you can see.

For solo founders and owner-operators. An agent that triages your inbox and calendar, follows up leads, chases invoices and does your research, set up from scratch on open-source software, with the security a one-click install skips.

What you get

Why from scratch, and why open source

Hosted assistants improve every month, and for many people they are enough. A business owner's agent is different. It sits on the inbox, the calendar and the books, and one wrong action can pay a scammer or hand a client's address to a stranger. In 2026 a widely used assistant gave a seller's home address to a buyer and arranged a visit, without asking.

We build on open-source agent frameworks such as OpenClaw and Hermes Agent because the sandbox, the allowlist and the approval step can be read and checked, and because there is no per-seat licence. The only recurring cost is model usage, and that is capped.

Minimal cost, by design

How it runs

  1. Discovery. A conversation about what eats your week. We pick the first workflow together: inbox and calendar triage, lead follow-up, invoice chasing or scheduling.
  2. Setup, fixed fee. Server, sandbox, your accounts connected, the first workflow built, then two weeks of tuning while you use it.
  3. Retainer, optional. Monitoring, fixes, one new workflow a month, and the weekly report of what the agents did and what it cost.

What an agent will never do on its own
