Three client slots before year-end. Email cbg@hey.com to claim one.

We find the two or three workflows burning the most hours in your business — retyping quotes, chasing invoices, answering the same inquiry fifty times — and build the automation that removes them. Fixed price, fixed scope, measured in hours saved. Built inside your business, with your team, for owner-operated companies with 10–75 employees where the owner signs the check and feels the pain personally.

What counts as an "automation"?

1 automation = 1 workflow, start to finish. An inquiry that lands in your inbox and ends up in your CRM with a reply drafted. A quote drafted from the notes someone already took. An invoice that chases itself. Most businesses have 5–10 of these hiding in plain sight. We build the 2–3 that burn the most hours first.

Where the hours go

Front of house
Inquiries, quotes, follow-ups
New inquiries triaged and answered the same day, quotes and estimates drafted from what your team already knows, and follow-ups that don't depend on someone remembering.
Back office
Data entry, scheduling, invoicing
Information that stops getting retyped between systems, scheduling that updates itself, and invoices that get chased without the awkward phone call.

Built with you. Paid on results.

We don't hand you a deck and leave. Strategy and code sit at one table — the same person who maps your workflow builds the fix, inside your tools, tested with the people who do the work.

— One person, both jobs

Before we build, we agree three things: the outcome, the starting point, and how we'll measure the change. The fixed fee covers the build. The optional performance bonus only pays when the hours actually show up.

— Shared upside, no surprises

Every automation we ship becomes a template for the next business like yours. Your Sprint gets faster because the last one happened, and the ones after you benefit from what we built for you.

— Every build feeds the library

Why not buy software, or hire?

Off-the-shelf software makes you fit its workflow. Hiring adds a salary to do work that shouldn't be done by hand at all. And yes, you could wire up Zapier and ChatGPT yourself — most owners start, get 60% of the way there, and abandon it the first time it breaks. We shadow your operation, build the fix inside the tools you already pay for, and keep it running. It's the Collison Install — we show up and do it with you.

Fixed price, fixed scope, 50% deposit on signing. Never hourly.

Audit fee credited 100% toward a Build Sprint signed within 30 days. Sprints run $8,000–$15,000 depending on the number and complexity of workflows.

Where we operate

In-person
North Carolina
Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, and a drive in any direction. We come shadow the work where it happens.
Remote
Anywhere in the US
Most of the build happens remotely either way. A screen share and a few recorded walkthroughs get us what we need.

How it works

1
Call
30 minutes. Find one painful workflow and price it in hours and dollars.
2
Shadow
1–2 hours on-site or on a screen share, watching how the work actually gets done.
3
Proposal
Within 48 hours: fixed scope, fixed price, and the hours we expect to save.
4
Build Sprint
3–4 weeks. Working automations inside your tools, tested with your people.
5
Measure
We check hours saved against the baseline we agreed on. That's the point.
6
Care Plan
Monitoring, fixes, and one improvement a month so the next move is more valuable than the last.

Most businesses go from first call to live automations in about six weeks.

FAQ

Is this "AI"?

Some of it. We use AI models where they do a job well — reading an email, drafting a quote, pulling numbers out of a PDF — and plain software everywhere else. You're buying hours back, not a technology. Happy to talk about the models if you ask.

What's included in a Build Sprint?

Two or three automations live inside your existing tools, a plain-English description of what each one touches, training for whoever runs it day to day, and 14 days of fast fixes after go-live. Anything after that moves to a Care Plan.

Do I need to buy new software?

Almost never. We build inside what you already pay for: your email, your spreadsheets, QuickBooks, your CRM, your scheduling tool. If something genuinely needs replacing, we'll say so and tell you what it costs.

Who owns what we build?

You do. Everything runs inside your accounts with your API keys. If we part ways, it keeps running and you keep the code and the documentation.

What if it doesn't save the hours you promised?

We agree the baseline and the measure before we build, which is why we shadow first and scope hard. The fixed fee covers the build either way. The performance bonus, if you choose one, only pays when the hours show up.

Why only three clients?

Chance builds everything personally, and three is what fits before year-end with quality intact. More slots open in January.

Do you work with healthcare or other regulated data?

Not right now. Anything touching patient records or regulated financial data needs compliance work we aren't set up for. We'll point you to someone who is.

How much time does my team need to give?

A few hours across the Sprint: one shadow session, a short weekly check-in, and someone willing to test what we build. We do the rest.

Your data stays yours

We build inside your business, not ours. Every engagement follows the same rules:

•Built inside your accounts — your Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, your QuickBooks, your CRM
•Your API keys — usage is billed to your account and passed through at cost, never marked up
•Least-privilege access — we get only what the workflow needs, and you can revoke it any time
•No copies — we don't keep your customer, job, or financial data after the engagement
•Human in the loop by default — drafts and review queues, not auto-send, until you say otherwise
•Documented handoff — a plain-English description of what every automation touches and why
