AI workflow consulting100% remote

Tangled work in.
Clean workflow out.

Three fixed-price AI installs for owner-led businesses of 3–15 people: a private AI assistant on a computer you own, a phone line that answers 24/7, or a lead follow-up system that never lets an inquiry go cold. You approve anything that touches a customer. Silicon Valley based, delivered entirely online.

Services

Three installs.
Pick one. $1,495 each.

Each one is a bounded build in tools you already own, tested on your real cases, and handed over with a one-page manual — so your team runs it without me.

01

A private AI assistant in your office

A small Mac in your office runs an assistant you message on Telegram or WhatsApp like an employee: "what's on today," "summarize my inbox," "draft a reply to the Johnson quote."

  • Reads your calendar, email, and files; sends a morning brief and a weekly report
  • Runs on your machine, locked to your network, with a hard monthly spending cap
  • Open-source agent — no subscription to us, nothing to cancel

Best for: real-estate agents, trades owners buried in group chats, solo consultants. This is how Psios itself runs — case study.

02

Your phone answered 24/7

A friendly AI assistant on a new local number picks up every call, answers your common questions, books on your calendar, takes messages, and forwards anything it can't handle to you.

  • A summary and transcript in your inbox within a minute of every call
  • Says it's an AI and asks consent up front — built for California call-recording law
  • You pay the phone platform directly, typically under $60 a month

Best for: HVAC, plumbing, electrical; auto repair; small IT support lines. We measure calls captured and appointments booked over 30 days.

03

Every lead followed up the same day

Inquiries from your website, email, or booking form land in your CRM with a follow-up drafted in your voice and pricing, waiting for your one-click approval.

  • Speed-to-lead: the first reply is ready in minutes, not days
  • Stalled deals get a nudge; proposals sent get a follow-up sequence
  • Nothing goes to a prospect without a human saying yes

Best for: agencies, consultants, and service businesses that lose leads to a busy week.

Pricing

$495 to start

Every engagement starts with a written audit. If you go ahead with an install, the full $495 comes off the price.

  • Fixed scope, fixed fee, agreed in writing: no day rates, no surprises
  • Built in the tools you already own; no new vendor, no lock-in

Case study · Psios internal

The assistant that
runs this company.

Psios is a one-person company. The reason it works is a resident AI assistant — install 01 above — running on a Mac Mini in the office since mid-2026.

The problem

One founder, several ventures, and a growing pile of notes, decisions, and follow-ups that no single person can keep in their head — plus the daily admin of running a company alone.

What was installed

  • An open-source agent on an always-on Mac Mini, reached through Telegram
  • A company knowledge base the assistant reads and maintains itself
  • A weekly scheduled job that files new material, checks the knowledge base for gaps, and commits the result
  • Voice input, so questions can be asked hands-free

What changed

Decisions, contacts, and project state are asked for, not searched for. Routine upkeep happens on a schedule instead of when someone remembers. The founder's time goes to clients and product.

Numbers on hours saved are deliberately not claimed. Ask Derek for a live walkthrough instead.
