What your team can do on Day 91.
Not a deck about AI potential. Working systems your team knows how to run, fix, and build more of — on their own, without us.
Book a scoping call- Your team has shipped at least one automation themselves — not just watched us do it
- All agent code in a Git repository your team controls and understands
- Harness installed on your laptop — local-first, nothing in our cloud
- Admin credentials transferred — we delete our access on day 91
- One-page spec for every automation: what it does, who owns it, how to extend it
- A written list of the next 5 things to build — with effort estimates, ready for your team to execute
How we make it stick.
Every engagement builds working systems and the knowledge to run them. Most teams ship their first automation within weeks — and build the next one themselves.
01
The Engagement
$3,500 / month
Month to month · early-cohort rate
The Embed
We work inside your business — finding the workflows that eat your team's time, building AI automations that handle them, and teaching your operators to run, fix, and extend them. The goal isn't to hand you a tool. It's to leave your team genuinely capable of using AI on their own. Most teams have automations running in production within weeks.
- Full workflow audit — we show your team where AI fits before building anything
- Custom automations built on your actual stack, not a demo environment
- Your operators run every automation in production before we leave
- Training, runbooks, and a complete handoff your team owns going forward
We price low to start because we'd rather grow with you than charge what the work is worth on day one. Early-cohort rate, locked while you're with us — it goes up for future clients.

The Platform
Free
Open · MIT licensed · no ongoing fees
Harness — free, and yours
The framework we install on your machine during the Embed. Local-first, open, runs on your own Claude Max subscription. No cloud, no ongoing fees. We teach your team how it works so they can build on it after we're gone — without needing us.
- Runs on your laptop — Mac or Windows
- Nothing leaves your machine — no data in our cloud or anyone else's
- LLM calls run on your own subscription and quota
- Your team can build new automations on it without our involvement
03
Ongoing
$3,500 / month
Cancel any month · no lock-in
Ongoing — optional
Once your team is running the system, keep us on to build new automations as your business grows. Same rate, cancel any month. Most clients use this for a few months, then build independently.
- New automations as your operation expands
- Monthly review of what's running and what to build next
- Priority access to the same team that built yours
- Cancel any month — no notice, no penalty
What moves the price
Map → Build → Hand off.
We teach while we build. By the time we leave, your team has done the work — not just watched.
01
Map
We interview your team, document every workflow, and build a ranked list of what to automate first — sorted by hours saved. Your team sees the whole picture before we write a line.
02
Build
We build and teach simultaneously. Your operators run each automation in production and learn what's happening under the hood. Working software ships early — not at the finish line.
03
Hand off
Admin credentials transferred, runbook delivered, your team ships a new automation without us in the room. That's the moment we know we're done.
// Your commitment
What your team puts in.
We embed with one operator on your team. Here's what their time looks like — and what they walk away knowing.
// Total: roughly 18 hours of team time across the full build

2–4 operators doing the work themselves, with us watching
Who this is for
- Teams that know AI is coming and want to actually be ready for it
- DTC and ecommerce operators growing toward $2M–$50M
- Companies with repetitive, rules-based work eating real team hours
- Operators who want to own the capability and the knowledge — not rent either
Who this isn't for
- Pre-revenue brands still finding product-market fit
- Teams looking for a tool subscription to "try AI" without real commitment
- Enterprises over $50M with internal AI teams already building
- Anyone who wants us to run it forever — we build it so you don't need us

The guarantee
If your team doesn't have automations running on real production workflows by the end of month two, we keep working at our cost until they do.
We teach and build simultaneously, so things ship early — not at the finish line. The clause exists because we stand behind the timeline, not because we expect to use it.
About Harness.
Harness is a local-first AI workforce framework — a native desktop app, an embedded SQLite store, and a small HTTP automation port that your mobile devices and external tools hit. It runs on your laptop, Mac or Windows, not ours. Agents are template-instantiated personas with file-backed memory, projects, and self-evolving skills. They drive Claude Code through your own Max subscription, on your own quota. We install it on your machine during the engagement, a Steward agent runs each morning to keep the project board honest, and everything the agents touch lives under one folder you own outright.

// Who you're actually hiring
Two operators who teach while they build.
Gabe Silva
A decade in ecommerce operations, finance, and marketing. Has built and run data infrastructure, marketing automation, and marketplace strategy for growing DTC brands. Operator-side, not agency-side.
Joey LeClear
Ten years scaling Google Ads accounts, growing spend profitably for ecommerce brands. Brings the acquisition discipline and account rigor that keeps an engagement shipping.
The questions we get on every call.
Honest answers. If it's not a fit, you'll know by the end of the call.
Book the callThe Embed is $3,500/month while we build, and ongoing support after handoff is $3,500/month — optional, cancel any month. Harness itself is free and yours to keep. This is an early-cohort rate: it's deliberately low because we'd rather grow with you, and it's locked while you're with us. Future clients will pay more. The scoping call ends with a clear picture of scope and timeline.
That's exactly who we build for. None of our clients need technical teams. We work on the tools your operators already use — Shopify, Klaviyo, Google Ads. Training is built into every engagement. By handoff, your team has shipped automations themselves — not just watched someone else do it.
Tools give you a product. We teach your team how to use AI systematically — on your actual stack, on your own machine — and don't leave until your operators can run and extend it themselves. When we're done, the knowledge lives with your team, not locked in a subscription.
Let's figure out where to start.
30 minutes. We'll map where AI would save your team the most time and tell you exactly what we'd build first. No pitch deck. No follow-up sequence. If it's not a fit, you get the hour back.
