01 / WORK

What a digital employee does in six industries.

Illustrative engagements showing the shape of the work, the jobs assigned, and the outcome each one is built to produce.
Law firmIntake

Every enquiry answered the same day.

A twelve-lawyer boutique where new-matter emails sat unread until a partner surfaced. The agent triages intake, drafts the acknowledgement, and flags conflicts before anyone opens the file.

Illustrative outcome: same-day response on 100% of intake
Marketing agencyFollow-ups

The proposals nobody chased.

An independent agency sending twenty proposals a month and following up on four. The agent holds the whole list, nudges on a schedule, and briefs the founder before every reconnect call.

Illustrative outcome: 3 dormant accounts reopened per quarter
InsuranceRenewals

Renewal season without the scramble.

A family brokerage running three offices on memory and spreadsheets. The agent watches every expiry window, drafts the outreach, and hands each broker a morning list ranked by what lapses first.

Illustrative outcome: zero renewals missed in a cycle
Real estateClient comms

A broker who stopped writing at midnight.

A top-producing team where the lead broker wrote every listing description, market note and follow-up personally. The agent drafts all three from the team's own past work; the broker edits and sends.

Illustrative outcome: 9 hours a week returned to selling
ManufacturerQuoting

The quote inbox that ran the shop floor.

An owner-machinist doing his own quoting after hours. The agent reads incoming RFQs, pulls the comparable job from history, and drafts the quote for him to price and approve.

Illustrative outcome: quote turnaround cut from days to hours
WholesalerOrder desk

Orders arriving by text, email and phone.

A foodservice distributor taking orders across four channels into one overloaded desk. The agent normalises every order into a single queue and flags anything that does not match the account's usual pattern.

Illustrative outcome: one queue, no re-keying

Note on the work above: these six engagements are illustrative examples, not real clients. They describe the shape of the work and the outcomes it is designed to produce. No named client, logo, metric or testimonial will ever appear on this site unless it is real and approved in writing by the client.

You are the bottleneck in your own operation.

Every email routes through you. Every follow-through depends on you. The open loops all live in your head — and they are the reason you cannot take a real week off. You have tried a virtual assistant who needed everything spelled out, and an AI chatbot that wrote one nice paragraph and forgot you existed. Neither stuck, because neither was an employee.

02 / SCOPE

Four jobs, from day one.

The executive layer is identical across industries, so your AI employee carries most of its value immediately. Vertical work layers on top once the foundation is trusted.
01

Email triage

Reads everything, sorts it, drafts the low-stakes replies, and hands you a short morning brief: what needs a decision, what is waiting on you, what it quietly handled. Nothing sensitive sends without you.

02

Meeting prep

A one-page brief before every call: who, what happened last time, what they care about, what you owe them, and what you want out of the conversation.

03

Follow-ups

Keeps the list you cannot hold in your head, and nudges you before every window closes. This is the one that quietly wins clients back.

04

Open loops

Pulls every half-finished thread across email, calendar and notes into one honest picture of what is actually outstanding.

03 / PROCESS

One call. One job description. Forty-eight hours.

01

The kickoff call

Thirty minutes. We pick the first job, name your assistant, and you watch an agent handling real work from a real inbox in about five minutes. No slides, no mockups.

02

Live in 48 hours

Not a pilot you configure — a working assistant doing one real job by the end of the week, running on a schedule whether or not you are looking.

03

Delegate like you would to anyone

Send requests one or two at a time; each is delivered in under 48 hours. You stop operating a tool and start delegating to a colleague.

04

Reliability is the product

Every automated job is watched. If something breaks you hear it from us first, not from your own failed attempt to use the agent. Your agent runs in its own isolated workspace; your data never mingles with anyone else's.

04 / PRICE

One price. No meters.

$1,500+
per month, based on scope

Risk-free first two weeks. If your assistant does not obviously earn its keep, walk away and pay nothing.

You are buying an employee, not a subscription to infrastructure. Compare it to the fully-loaded cost of the executive assistant you would otherwise hire — without the desk, the ramp-up or the turnover.

05 / QUESTIONS

What owners actually ask.

Why not just hire a VA?

A VA needs everything spelled out, works set hours, and takes their knowledge with them when they leave. An AI employee runs around the clock, keeps a permanent written memory of your people and projects, and gets better every week you use it.

Why not just use ChatGPT myself?

A chat window has no memory of your operation, no email address, no schedule and no accountability. The value here is not the model — it is the job description, the memory, the watchdogs, and someone whose phone rings when anything breaks.

Is my data safe?

Your agent runs in its own isolated workspace; your data never mingles with anyone else's. Nothing sensitive sends without your approval. We work through data-handling and confidentiality terms before anything touches your inbox.

What if it makes a mistake?

Every high-stakes action waits for your approval. Low-stakes drafts are exactly that — drafts. And every automated job is watched, so failures surface to us before they surface to you.

How do you handle privacy?

Before an agent touches a single email, we document what personal information it handles, why, and where it lives. We apply jurisdiction-specific regulatory privacy best practices based on where you operate, and high-stakes actions stay behind your approval.

Who is this not for?

Regulated healthcare and financial-services work, where compliance review makes the 48-hour promise dishonest. If that is you, we will tell you on the call and save us both the time.

Team experience

Built by people with experience across consulting, banking, consumer brands and global technology.

AI ecosystem

We assemble the right models, platforms and cloud services for the job.

Company marks describe team experience and the technology ecosystem used in client work. They do not imply client, employer or endorsement relationships.

Your next hire starts Monday.

Owners and partners at agencies, law firms, insurance shops, real estate teams, manufacturers and wholesalers. Tell us what's eating your week — we'll reply with next steps.
