Process
Audit. One agent. Then I see.
I do not start with a server. I start with the map. If the map says your plan has no API, or your missed-call count is too small to matter, I stop. This is the way back to the cabin week, not a software rollout. I take the unpaid second job, not the 8 o'clock call.

Discovery
Fifteen minutes. Three questions: what you run, where time leaks, who approves a message. You get a written map either way.
- 02
Assessment
$799 if you want the map scoped: first agent, scopes, security option, go or no-go. Sometimes the answer is do not build this.
- 03
One agent
Implementation is $1,500 to $12,000. Missed-call text-back or unsold-estimate follow-up are the usual first builds. Not five agents.
- 04
Read-only week
The agent drafts. Nothing is sent. You read the drafts and throw out the bad ones.
- 05
Gate on
Customer messages and any write that spends money wait for a named person. You can turn a gate off later, per agent, after you have watched it.
- 06
Retainer
$1,200 to $2,000 a month. Monitoring, vendor changes, a 30-minute review. Six clients. A second agent is a new build, not a freebie.
Your ServiceTitan, Jobber, Housecall Pro, Procore, and QuickBooks bills stay yours. A VPS, if I use one, is about $4 to $6 a month in your name.
