Reclaim 15 to 25 hours a week your San Francisco team is burning on manual work
I build custom AI workflows for San Francisco ops teams that have outgrown Zapier and need real integrations with their stack.
Who this is for
San Francisco mid-market ops leader or startup whose team spends 20+ hours a week on repetitive document and data work. Bay Area dev shops cost $200k+, senior eng hires take nine months, offshore fails on timezone.
The pain today
- Your team has hit the Zapier complexity ceiling
- Vendor AI demos look great but never integrate with your stack
- Bay Area dev shops cost $200k+, senior eng hires take nine months, offshore fails on timezone.
- Every new workflow takes three internal sprints to build
The outcome you get
- AI pipelines integrated with your existing APIs and databases
- 15 to 25 hours per week returned to the team
- Evals, cost monitoring, and observability from day one
- Regular collaboration and weekly review
San Francisco workflows I see most often
Document review, finance reconciliation, customer ops triage, KYC packet prep, RFP or proposal drafting, and sales-ops enrichment. Most share the same shape: a human reads a document, extracts a few fields, decides, and writes a summary. LLM-plus-rules workflows handle 70 to 90 percent of that today. The remaining work is exception handling, which the humans still do but on a much smaller volume. Bay Area dev shops cost $200k+, senior eng hires take nine months, offshore fails on timezone. I write the pipeline, the evals, the cost monitor, and the handoff doc. Your team keeps shipping while I build.
Why Zapier stops working around the tenth workflow
No-code tools are great for the first few automations. Around the tenth you hit three walls: cost, observability, and edge cases. Cost because per-task pricing at scale beats a custom pipeline. Observability because when a Zap fails at 2am you have no idea why. Edge cases because real business logic needs branching that Zapier handles with duct tape. The move is not to scrap Zapier entirely; it is to graduate the critical workflows to a proper pipeline and leave the light stuff where it is. I work the hours the engagement needs. Async-first with a recurring sync at whatever time works for your team — no fixed office schedule.
How we collaborate and measure ROI
$3,000/mo retainer, one complex pipeline or two simpler ones per month, 14-day money-back guarantee, cancel any month. All engagements contract through my US LLC. Payment structure is negotiated per engagement. Before we start I ask you to log baseline hours on the target workflow; monthly we compare current hours plus vendor cost to that baseline. Most clients see payback in two to four months. Pipelines ship with confidence thresholds, a human-in-the-loop step for low-confidence cases, and documented handoff so your team can extend the system.

Frequently asked questions
The questions prospects ask before they book.
- What about compliance and data residency?
- Private-model deployments available (Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, self-hosted Llama or Mistral). Audit logs, access controls, and data residency configured per engagement. I have shipped regulated workflows at bolttech (fintech unicorn).
- Can you work with our existing IT and engineering teams?
- Yes. Your IT handles infra and access; I handle the pipeline, evals, and handoff docs. Weekly sync.
- How do we measure ROI?
- Baseline hours logged before engagement, monthly comparison against current hours plus vendor cost. Typical payback is two to four months.
- Timezone and language?
- I work the hours the engagement needs. Async-first with a recurring sync at whatever time works for your team — no fixed office schedule. English is the working language. Bilingual needs handled via PT/ES when relevant.
- How is the engagement structured?
- All engagements contract through my US LLC. Payment structure is negotiated per engagement. $3,000/mo subscription, month-to-month with a 14-day money-back guarantee.
