AI Services That Ship.Automation & Consulting, Not Slide Decks.
We help small and mid-size businesses put AI to work in two ways: done-for-you automation builds that replace your most expensive manual processes, and hands-on AI strategy consulting for companies that need an expert in their corner.
Pick the Track That Fits Your Problem
Both paths lead to real AI working in your business. The difference is how you want to get there.
AI Automation Builds
We identify the manual process costing you the most in time or headcount and build a custom AI system to replace it. You own everything we build.
- Done-for-you build, fully deployed
- You own the code, server, and credentials
- AP automation, SEO workflows, email triage, and more
AI Strategy Consulting

- 6-12 month contracts, 1-2 clients at a time
- AI readiness assessment to start
- Tool selection, team training, and governance
- Results in 60-90 days, not 6 months

AI Services FAQ
How much does AI automation cost for a small business?+
Most CalTech Web automation builds land between $1,500 and $25,000 depending on scope. A single-workflow build like email triage sits at the low end; multi-system pipelines that integrate with an ERP or multiple data sources sit at the high end. Every project starts with a fixed quote, and you own the finished system outright with no per-seat or monthly platform fees.
What business processes can AI automation replace?+
The best candidates are high-volume, rule-driven processes a person repeats daily or weekly: invoice processing, inbound email review, client reporting, data entry between systems, spreadsheet consolidation, and content production. If your team can describe the steps, we can usually automate them.
Do we need technical staff to run the systems you build?+
No. Every build ships with written SOPs, a walkthrough for your team, and monitoring that alerts us when something needs attention. Most clients keep a small monthly retainer for adjustments, but day-to-day operation requires no technical staff.
How is this different from Zapier or an off-the-shelf AI tool?+
Off-the-shelf tools rent you a generic workflow with monthly fees and hard limits. We build custom systems around your exact process, deploy them on infrastructure you own, and hand over the code and credentials. There is no platform lock-in and no usage-based pricing surprise.
How long does an automation build take?+
Most builds go from discovery to live in 4 to 8 weeks. Week one maps your current process, the middle weeks build and validate against your historical data, and the final week runs the system in parallel with your manual process before cutover.
