"I just need to clone myself."
Every owner we talk to says some version of the same three things:
We keep saying we'll do X and never do.
I'd hire somebody, but I can't find the right person.
Everyone's running a hundred miles an hour and nothing moves forward.
It's not a discipline problem. It's that you and your best people spend most of the week on work that doesn't need a human anymore, chasing status, formatting proposals, answering the same five questions, feeding the CRM. The important work loses to the urgent work, every single week.
That's the work AI Employees take back.
Not a chatbot. A trained member of your team.
An AI Employee is a system built for one job in your business, trained on how you actually do that job, running inside the tools you already pay for. It works around the clock, never calls in sick, and costs about $90 a month to keep on staff. Three examples from real builds:
The lead responder.
A new inquiry hits your inbox at 7:40 on a Tuesday night. Your Speed2Lead AI Employee replies in under 60 seconds in your voice, on the right channel, with one clear next step. The lead that used to go cold by morning books a call instead.
The proposal builder.
Your estimator's notes go in; a formatted, branded, priced proposal comes out in minutes, not the three days it sits in the "when I get to it" pile. Deals stop dying of old age.
The invoice chaser.
It knows who owes you, how late they are, and how they like to be talked to. Gentle nudge for the good customer, firm follow-up for the repeat offender. You stop being the collections department.
$90k
Projected first-year savings. A floor number, on conservative assumptions.
50 hrs/wk
Owner and senior-team hours typically reclaimed from repetitive, lower-value work.
636%
12-month return on $15,720 investment for a $5M company at 10% margin moving to 12%
The numbers, plainly
$90/month covers the core platform. Add-on features like SMS response, additional channels, custom integrations are quoted at the Fit Call so you only pay for what fits your business. One development fee. No retainer required.
The Main Street Guarantee
Every build we sell carries the same promise: we keep working free until it works. No money-back gimmick on the build, because a refund leaves you exactly where you started and we'd rather stay in it until the system earns its keep. The one exception is the $999 Assessment: that's a finished plan, so it carries the one money-back offer: if the report doesn't find you at least 10 hours a week worth reclaiming, itemized with the math shown, you pay nothing.
Refund the plan. Keep-working-free the build.
The specific guarantee for each offer is spelled out on its page Speed2Lead · 90-Day Sprint · AI Assessment
Three ways to start. Every paid step credits 100% toward the Sprint.
The 90-Day Sprint is the build. The other doors exist so you can prove the fit (and the math) before you commit. Commit within 60 days and every dollar you spent on the way in comes off the Sprint price.

$999 AI Readiness Assessment — a 60-minute working call with me and a 10-to-15 page report in your hands within 7 business days: your vendor spend audited line by line, the three AI Employees that pay off fastest, the real math on each, and straight build-vs-buy guidance including when not to hire me. Money-back if the report doesn't find you at least 10 hours a week worth reclaiming.
$3,500 Speed2Lead — your first AI Employee, deployed in 14 days. Every inbound lead answered in under 60 seconds, in your voice. Day-14 quality bar or we keep working free until it hits it.
Ready to build? Do the 90-Day Sprint.
$15,000 — three to five AI Employees in production, your institutional knowledge made searchable, reporting on tap, a vendor retainer audit with at least one retainer cancelled, and one long-stalled project finally shipped. Backed by the Day-90 Guarantee and the Day-180 Backstop.
Founding pricing: 3 spots at $15,000. When they're filled, the price is $22,000.
Assessment and Speed2Lead credits don't stack, the larger one applies. Net Sprint could cost as low as $11,500.
