We build real software. It runs forever.

Everyone's selling you AI that makes little mistakes all day long. I build plain, dependable programs instead: they do your repetitive work the same way every time, cost nothing to run, and never make a judgment call about your business. You get hours back, every single week.

One button. Job done. The morning report, the invoice chase, the reorder. Stuff that took 30 minutes of clicking becomes one press.
No monthly AI bill A program doesn't charge you every time it runs. Build it once, it works forever, for pennies.
Nothing to babysit Simple systems don't break. No wrong decisions, no weird answers, no surprises on Monday.
Straight answers If you don't need the fancy system, I'll tell you not to buy it. Simpler is better. Simpler is cheaper.

Maria's Cookies

A tiny bakery's whole ordering system: customers pick a pickup day, order boxes, pay, and get text updates. Maria just bakes.

Try it yourself

Press the buttons. These ones are fake.

Six little working replicas, running right here in the page. Pick one, press its buttons. The real systems look and feel just like this. Tap the blue dots for what's what.

An order comes in. Run it from your pocket.

The easy button

Find the task that takes your day away.

We turn it into a computer script and put it on a real, physical button on your desk. One press does all the clicking, copying, and pasting for you.

  • That report you build every morning? One press, it's in your inbox.
  • Customer asks for a document? One press pulls it up, attaches it, and drafts the reply.
  • Running low on supplies? One press sends the order. Delivery's scheduled before you refill your coffee.

One key per chore: email, documents, reorders, reports. (Yes, the coffee key works too.)

Why me

I'm a small business owner first.

I didn't learn this stuff to sell it. I learned it to save my own businesses time and money. Twenty years of it, from crazy Excel formulas back in the day to all the tools and technology we have now.

How I'll treat you

  • My job is to make your job easier. That's the whole business.
  • I won't sell you anything that doesn't clearly save you hours. If it doesn't, I'll say so.
  • We go after the easy wins first, not the flashy robo-voice answering system somebody charges thousands to set up.
  • Free consultation, free evaluation, free advice. Take it or leave it. Nothing wrong with a good talk.

It started in a warehouse.

My first job was picking orders in a warehouse. I was the guy studying the fastest picker's movements and improving on them, so I could do more work with less effort. Then I taught myself SQL to run the reports and prove it.

That's just how I'm wired: spot the wasted motion and turn it into time back.

What I build

The work shows up already done.

Your phone buzzes. The task is finished. You just say yes.

It watches your inventory and preps the reorder. You tap once.

It digs up the documents and writes the reply. You approve it.

The report builds itself every morning. You just read it.

Proof

I use everything I sell.

My own operation runs on this exact stack: my own mail server across 20+ domains, data collectors running 24/7 for months without babysitting, and search systems over everything I've ever built. It works because I live on it.

The short version

  • Round-the-clock data capture that catches its own problems and fixes them.
  • Business email for every domain I own, no per-mailbox fees, full control.
  • A document brain I ask questions all day long, running on my own hardware.
  • Porch Orders and Comment Scout, built and hosted end to end. Demos above.

AI training

Everybody's doing AI. Almost nobody's doing it well.

I'll get you and your crew up to speed fast: how I actually use this stuff all day, every day. The tips, the tricks, the custom scripts, and the secret sauce.

Free consult

Book a free consultation

A free 30-60 minute strategy session. Bring me the problem. I'll tell you straight whether it's worth automating, roughly what it'd take, and if the answer is "you don't need me," you'll hear that too.

Picks a real time on my calendar. No pitch, no obligation.

Start small

What's the one thing you have to do, and hate to do?

Tell me what takes too long, what breaks most often, and what would change if it were much easier. I read and respond personally (no AI).
