Built for the Businesses That Never Really Clock Out

You Can't Always Pick Up the Phone, But That Doesn't Mean Your Business Should Suffer

I build simple AI tools for local service businesses — the kind that handle the calls you miss when you're on a job, with the family, or just trying to breathe for a second. No tech degree required. No fluff. Just tools that actually work.

Every business is different. I start by just listening.

Hey, I'm Ty. I build things that solve real problems for real businesses.

Like just about every kid my age, the first time I used AI was to write a high school essay I forgot about the night before it was due. But the more I used it, the more I realized how much it could actually do — and I kind of never stopped digging. That was four years ago. These days I spend my time learning, building, and finding new ways to put these tools to work.

I grew up watching my parents run their own businesses — both the pride and freedom that come with it, as well as the stress and pressure of maintaining what you've built. That really stuck with me, and in recent years I've had the incredible opportunity to talk to many local business owners about the ups and downs of their journey. Because of that I'm in a unique position where I can finally give back to the communities that I've learned so much from, by building specialized tools for business owners and turning "the power of AI" from confusing buzzwords to something that normal people can actually benefit from.

If you're still reading this you're either a business owner yourself, somebody that would like to be one day, or my mom. If you're one of the first two, please reach out. I'd love to hear your story.

Grew Up Around Small Business

I watched my parents build something from nothing. I know what's actually at stake when you're running the show yourself.

Genuinely Curious About Yours

I don't come in with a pre-built pitch. Every conversation starts with me asking questions and actually listening to the answers.

A few things I can help you with

Missed Call Text Back

When you can't pick up, this steps in. An automated system that texts your missed calls back in your voice, figures out what they need, and either gets them booked or flags you if it's urgent. Set up once, runs on its own.

AI Consulting

Got a few hours a week you'd rather spend somewhere else? I'll sit down with you, figure out where they're going, and find you the right tools to give them back.

Website Design

If your website is outdated, nonexistent, or just embarrassing to hand out, I can fix that. Clean, modern, and built to actually represent the business you've worked hard to grow.

Three steps, no surprises

01

We Talk

A casual 30-minute call where I ask you some questions about your business. Tell me how you got started, what things look like for you today, what drives you crazy, and what goals you have. The more I understand about your business, the better I can help.

02

I Get to Work

Once I understand where you're at I'll do my research and put together a plan tailored to your needs. I'll find the tools that are right for you, and if nothing out there fits your situation specifically, I'll build it.

03

We Go Over Everything

Once I've pulled it all together we get back on a call and I lay it out for you. We'll go over your pain points, I'll show you what I found and why it fits, and if you like the plan we can move forward. I'll handle the setup and make sure you actually know how to use everything.

Curious if any of this could help your business?

Fill out the form below and tell me a little about what you've got going on. No commitment, no sales call you didn't ask for. I'll reach out and we'll figure out if it's worth a conversation.

Get in Touch

Tell me a little about yourself.

Fill this out and I'll be in touch to set up a time to talk. The more you share the better, but even just a name and a number gets the ball rolling.
