Capture what a prospect needs and connect that information to a walkthrough booking.
Delivered
Built the website and automated intake workflow: prospect information is recorded in Google Sheets, a booking is added to Google Calendar, and a summary captures the requested cleaning services.
Practical outcome
The business receives prospect details and booking context together, ready for follow-up. No conversion or time-saving metrics are claimed.

Confidential security engagement
Security assessment and approved remediation
An application security review, a findings report, and remediation authorized by the client. Client identity and technical findings remain confidential.
Reviewed application security, Google sign-in permissions, database access, and the separation of server-side secrets from browser-accessible configuration.
Delivered
Documented findings and implemented the changes the client reviewed and authorized.
Practical outcome
Addressed approved security findings within the agreed scope. This is not a claim that every risk was eliminated or that the application is certified secure.
Work directly with the engineer building your system.
Over a decade in tech, including subcontract work for Boeing — where the cost of getting something wrong teaches you to design for the failure case first. I build custom software because I genuinely enjoy it, and I still write every line myself.
I handle discovery, technical design, and implementation, so the context from our first conversation stays with the build.

The spine
Whatever you configure, it ships on this.
Six things every engagement gets. None of them are upsells.
01You own every line
Your repository from day one. Nothing walks off with a contractor.
02Least privilege by default
Credentials scoped to the job. Blast radius bounded before anything runs.
03Human gates on destructive work
Agents prepare high-impact actions. People approve them.
04Provider-agnostic
Claude, OpenAI, or local models swapped by config — never hardcoded.
05Extendable without me
Documented and conventional. Any competent developer can pick it up.
06Phase 0 is not optional
A hardened server before production, with a written record of what changed.
01 / Solution studio
Start with the friction. See what it could become.
Pick the problem that feels familiar. This is not a product catalog—it is a quick look at how we turn an operational drag into a system your business can use.
Voice + lead operations
Let the routine calls qualify themselves.
A voice agent answers, gathers the useful context, updates your pipeline, and only brings a human in when the conversation is worth having.
01Inbound callAnswers immediately, even after hours
02QualifyAsks the questions your team actually uses

OUTCOME
Your team starts with context instead of a ringing phone.
Booking + coordination
Turn calendar ping-pong into one clean flow.
A custom booking system checks availability, applies your real business rules, sends reminders, and handles the routine changes without another inbox thread.

02CheckExtracts fields and applies explicit rules

Operational intelligence
Give the business one place to tell the truth.
A custom dashboard connects the tools you already run, highlights what changed, and gives your team a clear next action instead of another spreadsheet.

02 / System builder
Pick the parts. Watch your system take shape.
One reasoning core. Your channels feed in, your platforms connect out, your automations run underneath. Assemble it here and the spec travels with your message.

03 / What it costs
Real numbers, before you have to ask.
Indicative USD planning ranges based on project type, integrations, and hosting. These are not a quote or a guaranteed accuracy band; a fixed written quote follows a scope review.
ESTIMATED RANGE$4.32k – $10.35k
Typical timeline: 1–4 weeks from kickoff to production.
Phase 0 server hardening before anything goes live
Least-privilege credentials and human approval gates
Source code in your repository from day one
30 days of post-launch support and iteration
Planning estimate only. Scope, data quality, and integration complexity can move the price outside this range. Third-party usage is separate.
Where the money actually goes
The AI is the cheap part.
Integration work, edge cases, and safe deployment are what a real engagement is made of.
Discovery and technical design10–15%
Mapping the workflow, agreeing scope, writing the spec you sign off on.
Core build35–45%
The actual system — logic, agents, tools, interface, evaluation.
Integrations15–25%
Every system you connect adds engineering time. Clean APIs are cheap; legacy is not.
Hardening and deployment15–20%
Phase 0 server work, least-privilege access, approval gates, production rollout.
Post-launch support5–10%
First 30 days of fixes and adjustments against real usage.
03 / Private AI assistants
An assistant that knows the operation—not just the conversation.
OpenClaw, Hermes, or a custom stack can become a private interface to the tools your business already uses. The useful part is not the chatbot. It is the permissions, context, and actions behind it.

05 / Built in-house
A product we build and operate ourselves.
Arctyk Vision is our own productized service. It exists partly because local businesses kept asking a version of the same question—and partly because the fastest way to prove how we build is to run something ourselves.
Arctyk VisionGoogle Maps and AI-search visibility for local service businesses.
Most local businesses rank fine near their own address and disappear a few miles out, where the calls are going to someone else. Arctyk Vision measures where you vanish, works out who is taking those calls, and turns the gap into work you can approve.
5×5 proximity grid
25 GPS points per scan show exactly where you rank and where you vanish.
AI-search readiness
A 0–100 score for why AI answers skip you, with the specific gap to close.
Competitor landscape
Who wins the map in each neighborhood, and which signals appear to be helping them.

06 / Straight answers
Questions worth asking.
Including the ones where the honest answer costs me the project.
Do I actually need custom software, or is ChatGPT enough?
Often ChatGPT is enough, and I will tell you so. A chat window is great for drafting and thinking. It stops being enough when the work needs your live data, has to happen without someone prompting it, or must never take a destructive action unsupervised. That is the line where a custom build starts paying for itself.
How accurate is the estimator?
It is an indicative planning tool, not a measured accuracy guarantee. Data quality, integration constraints, and workflow exceptions can move the price outside the displayed range. A scope review is required for a fixed written quote.
What is not included in a quote?
Third-party usage costs—model APIs, telephony, hosting—which get set up under your own accounts so you keep direct billing control and can leave at any time. You get a forecast of those before work starts.
What happens if we stop working together?
You keep everything. The code is in your repository, the infrastructure is in your accounts, and the build is documented well enough for another developer to continue. There is no platform to be locked into.
How do you keep an AI agent from doing something catastrophic?
Least-privilege credentials, explicit approval gates on destructive operations, and a bounded set of tools per agent. Agents prepare work; people approve the consequential parts. This is architecture, not a setting.
Can we start small?
Preferred. The best first engagement is the smallest system that proves value against a real workflow. Everything after that builds on code you already own.
Do you sell anything off the shelf?
One thing. Arctyk Vision is our productized service for local Google Maps and AI-search visibility—$1,000 a month per location, cancel anytime. Everything else is scoped to your operation.
