Eight connected cubies form four paired steps in the dkBuilds loop: Embed, Identify, Build it, and Stay (or not). It rotates continuously. Press P to pause or resume. Drag or use arrow keys to turn it. Tap, click, or press Enter to scatter it, then add each step back in order.
An applied AI firm

Custom AI solutions for mid-market businesses. Fast.

I embed inside mid-market companies, identify where AI can solve today's problems and enable tomorrow's growth, and then ship the system that's actually used.

SERVICES

Common problems I’ve solved

Your team retypes data from PDFs into your systems. Every day.
Your invoices don't match your quotes — and nobody has time to check.
Your best people spend their hours on documents instead of decisions.
Your growth is capped by work that shouldn't need more headcount.

Busy work becomes a normalized loss. It wastes money today and limits how fast you can grow tomorrow. I build custom software to remove it.

Case studies

Impact, not audits.

The software I build does the work instead of telling you how.

85%of the workflow, gone
2.5 hours → 22 minutes

Submittals from 300-page spec books

Project managers were reading multi-volume spec books and assembling submittal packages by hand — 2.5 hours on every project. I built the agent that does it in 22 minutes, validated end-to-end on their own projects.

self-improving with every quote

Vendor quotes, mapped without the retyping

Estimators retyped every vendor quote line-by-line back into the estimate — 20 to 30 quotes a project, more than an hour each. My system reads any vendor's PDF, maps it to their internal codes, and flags what's missing, mispriced, or misquantified. Faster bids, fewer errors, and more bids out the door.

A partner in the outcome.

We agree on what the system has to deliver before I start, then I scope and price the build around that.
You own the system. I stay involved only if you want me to. No slide decks!

Approach
01

I embed

With the people doing the work, until I understand the workflow as well as your employees do. The real problem is never in the RFP.

02

I identify

The solution that will work in your business — not the one that demos well. If AI isn't worth it in a particular area, I'll tell you (and then find where it is).

03

I build it

Custom to your codes, your formats, your data. I write the code. You own the system.

04

I stay

Until your people use it and the results are measurable. Ongoing if you want — so the system keeps working as your business changes.
