Custom AI for small and mid-size businesses

Let AI do the tedious work,
your team has better things to do.

Finding out which jobs lost money only after the books close. Pulling numbers from three systems to answer one quote. Rebuilding the same report every Monday. I find where AI pays off in your business and build it, on your own data.

One job, built on your own data and handed over running. Tested on real examples from your business before you rely on it. $5,000 fixed, priced in writing before I start.

How it works

Three steps. You commit to nothing until you approve a written price.

  1. 1

    Tell me what eats your team's week

    If you already know the job, great. If you just know something takes too long, that is enough to start. The first conversation is free, I reply within one business day, and if AI is the wrong fix I will tell you.

  2. 2

    Agree the test and the price, in writing

    We pick real examples from your business to judge it by: fifty past jobs or quotes, or fifty questions your team actually gets asked. You get a fixed price in writing before I start.

  3. 3

    I build it, score it, and hand it over running

    It runs on your own data and systems. You see its score on your examples before you rely on it, and a handover session means your team can run it without me.

Fixed-Price AI Build

$5,000 fixed

One concrete job, built and handed over running, typically in 3 to 6 weeks. Fixes are free for 30 days after handover. Running costs, usually tens of dollars a month, go straight to the AI and cloud providers with no markup. How your data is handled is agreed in writing before the build.

Not sure where AI fits? Find out in an hour

$250 one hour

A Working Session: an hour on your business, then a written one-page plan of where AI would pay off, what it would cost, and what to skip. Credited in full against a build booked within thirty days.

Results

What changed for the people doing the work.

Client projects from my eight years at Oracle, and what each one changed.

  • Manufacturing

    BeforeOperators found out about dangerous furnace conditions when they happened.

    AfterA model watching the plant's own sensor readings warns them before those conditions develop.

  • County government

    BeforeInvestigators wrote every report from scratch, working from the intake notes.

    AfterAI drafts the report from the intake, and the investigator edits it. Less analyst time per case.

  • Online retail

    BeforeBusiness staff waited on someone who could write database queries to get a sales answer.

    AfterThey type the question in plain English and get the answer from their own sales data.

  • County government

    BeforeValuing every property in the county for tax assessment was slow, record-by-record work.

    AfterA model trained on the county's own property records helps the assessors value them.

  • Business news

    BeforeStaff gathered information from websites by hand.

    AfterAn AI agent does the searching and collecting on its own.

Who you work with

Me, directly, from the first email to the handover.

I am an AI and machine learning consultant with a Ph.D. in physics and twelve years building production AI and machine learning, eight of them at Oracle, the last three in its AI Center of Excellence. There is no bench of junior consultants behind me and nobody your project gets handed down to.

I have no vendor relationships, no reseller agreements and no referral fees, so what I recommend is whatever fits your problem. I am insured for general and professional liability, and based in Cedar Park, TX (Austin metro), with part of the year in Powell, TN (Knoxville area). Delivery is remote, with on-site visits when they help.

Weighing an AI proposal from someone else? I also review those independently.

  • Ph.D. Physics, University of Notre Dame
  • 12+ years building production AI and ML
  • 30+ peer-reviewed publications
