Build · Fix the constraint
Turn a workflow problem or an AI use case into a working system.
I design, build, and launch a focused system around your existing tools. That might be a follow-up workflow, a CRM integration, an internal workspace, or AI that drafts, summarizes, or extracts information inside a real process. We agree on the scope and how to judge the result before building.

Who it’s for
When this is the right step.
For an owner or team leader with a defined workflow problem, automation need, or AI use case and the authority to put the solution into use.
- A diagnostic or your own analysis has identified a specific workflow to improve.
- You know the problem, but earlier tools, agencies, or hires didn't fix it.
- The owner or COO wants to stop being the routing layer for the business.
- You have an AI use case and need it connected to the tools and process your team actually uses.
Outputs
What you get.
- A working system in production, built around your existing tools wherever possible
- A clear state, owner, and next step for the work in scope
- An interface or action view matched to the workflow
- Integrations, automation, and AI assistance where the agreed use case calls for them
- Documentation and hands-on training for the people who use it
- A post-launch review against the starting baseline
Pricing
Builds start at $15,000. Price depends on the workflow, integrations, data, and review requirements. You receive a fixed-price proposal before implementation starts.
Every build states the objective, the metric it should move, what is in and out of scope, and what you own at the end.
Boundaries
The fine print, up front.
Stated before any contract, so scope and expectations are clear.
- Scope and price are fixed per phase and agreed in writing before work starts.
- I build on your existing CRM and tools unless there is a clear reason not to.
- Approval and change rules are agreed before customer-facing or record-changing automation is enabled.
- You own what is built: code, configuration, and documentation.
What comes next: After launch, your team can own the system or TKO can continue with Operate & Improve. The next step is optional and separately scoped.
Typical work
What this usually involves.
Will you replace our CRM?+
Rarely. The CRM is usually fine as a record. What's missing is the layer that turns records into the next action.
Is this an AI project?+
Sometimes. It can help draft, summarize, sort, or spot missing information. If a simpler rule or workflow solves the problem, that is what I use instead.
Who actually builds it?+
I do. The same person who learns the workflow is responsible for designing and building the fix.
Do we need the diagnostic first?+
If the workflow, problem, and desired result are already clear, we can start with build scoping. If we need to understand why the work is breaking down, the diagnostic is the better first step.
Can we plan a project for next year?+
Yes. We can discuss scope and dependencies now, then agree on a start date against your timeline and my availability. Work begins only after scope, timing, and price are agreed.
The other steps
