Workflow automation consulting that ends in shipped software

We diagnose broken workflows, recommend the smallest fix that works, and build it—automation, integrations, or internal tools.

Consulting that stops at a slide deck is expensive wallpaper. We consult in service of shipping: one workflow diagnosed, one recommendation, one milestone scoped—with engineering behind the recommendation.

What breaks today

The pain we hear on almost every intake

Automation proposals that never ship

Strategy decks collect dust while the team still copies data by hand.

Tools purchased without workflow design

Another SaaS login does not fix a process that was never mapped.

No one owns the exceptions

Automations handle the happy path; edge cases land back in someone’s inbox.

What we build

Focused deliverables—not a vague retainer

Workflow diagnosis and prioritization

Frequency, cost, risk, and tooling friction—ranked so you know what to fix first.

Build vs buy vs integrate guidance

Honest call on Zapier, native connectors, Apps Script, or custom software.

Implementation by the same team

We do not hand off to a separate dev shop—you work with engineers who scoped the work.

How we work

One workflow, one milestone, expand from proof

01

Intake on one bottleneck

Short form, async review, no multi-hour discovery workshop required to get a useful answer.

02

20-minute call when earned

If the intake clears the bar, we walk through one recommendation—not a generic capabilities pitch.

03

Milestone proposal you can act on

Scope, timeline band, and what “done” looks like for the first slice.

Questions

Straight answers

We are engineers first. Recommendations are constrained by what we will actually build and support—not tool partner commissions.

The intake and async review are designed to lead to action. If we are not a fit, we say so directly.

Ops-heavy SMBs and mid-market teams—manufacturing, healthcare admin, field services, professional services, and B2B SaaS operators.

One workflow that hurts, the tools involved, how often it breaks, and whether a decision-maker cares. That is enough to start.

Tell us about one bottleneck and we will respond with whether a small first milestone makes sense—most land between $2k and $20k.
