AI for SMBs
Stop Renting Software.
Start Owning It.
Your business runs on software you don't own. You're paying monthly for tools you barely use, locked into platforms that don't fit, and handing your data to someone else. There's a better way.
Let's Talk About Your Stack →The Problem
SaaS Bloat Is Draining Your Budget
Most small businesses pay $500–2,000+ per month on SaaS subscriptions. CRMs, project management tools, scheduling apps, invoicing platforms — each one charging monthly for features you'll never touch.
You're locked into their workflows, limited by their design choices, and dependent on their pricing decisions. Your data lives on their servers. And every month, the meter keeps running.
CRM you use at 20% capacity
Project management with features you ignore
Scheduling tool that could be a simple form
Invoicing platform for basic billing
That's $6,000–18,000+ per year
For tools you don't fully use and don't own.

In Practice
What This Looks Like
Real scenarios where AI-built tools replace expensive subscriptions.
Custom CRM
Before
Paying $99/mo for a CRM with 200 features — using 15.
After
A lightweight CRM built around your exact sales process. Track leads, follow-ups, and deals your way.
Scheduling & Booking
Before
Paying $30/mo for Calendly-style booking with limited customization.
After
Your own booking system with custom availability rules, intake forms, and automatic confirmations.
Project Dashboard
Before
Paying $150/mo for project management seats your team barely logs into.
After
A focused dashboard that tracks what matters to your team — nothing more, nothing less.
The Process
Four steps. Zero fluff.
Map the Terrain
We talk through your business, your tools, and where the pain is. I need to understand your world before I touch anything.
Expose the Waste
I map every SaaS tool you use — what it actually costs, what you need from it, and what's just expensive dead weight.
Replace with Purpose
Using AI, I build custom tools tailored to your exact workflows. No bloat. No compromises. Built around how you actually work.
Deploy & Own It
Your tools go live. I train your team, make sure everything runs smooth, and hand you the keys. It's yours. Forever.
Why Me
AI skills alone aren't enough.
Anyone can prompt an AI to generate code. Knowing what to build — and what not to — takes something else entirely.
Practitioner, Not Theorist
I've already replaced my own SaaS stack.
I'm not theorizing — I've killed my own subscriptions with custom-built tools. I know what works, what breaks at 3am, and what's worth the effort because I've lived it.
Community-Tested
I lead a community of builders doing this every day.
Build to Own Club is a growing community of founders and operators building these exact solutions together. Every pattern, pitfall, and win gets fed back into every client engagement.
Two Decades Deep
20 years of building businesses — not just prompts.
I understand the ripple effects. How changing one tool impacts your team, your workflows, your customers. I know what to prioritize and what to leave alone. That judgment doesn't come from a tutorial.
Community

You're not alone in this shift. Join a growing community of founders and operators who are taking back control of their software stack — building tools they own, sharing what works, and helping each other move faster.
