$2,500 – $8,000 · 2–4 weeks
Business automation that gives work a better flow. Reading, Pennsylvania.
Let the tools do the copying. Keep people doing the thinking.
Connect the systems you already use: an enquiry becomes a job, a completed job prepares an invoice, a deadline prompts a reminder. Use clear rules where they fit and AI where it adds value, with human review for consequential actions.
What is in it
A mapped handoff between your tools, with agreed triggers, actions and the information each step needs.
The integration running in accounts you control, with provider usage and billing visible to you.
A fixed build price, plus a separate explanation of any hosting, platform or usage-based charges. No mandatory studio subscription.
Documented limits, failure handling and review steps, so the next person can understand what runs and where to intervene.

The Build Plan — $1,500, two weeks
A practical blueprint: numbered scope, a fixed price for each item, recommended technology, a dated timeline, exclusions and handover terms. Includes a one-hour walkthrough.
Ask about The Build PlanThe plan is yours to keep and use with another developer. Start a build with me within 60 days and the $1,500 is credited against the first invoice.
The Code Review — $3,000, two weeks
A written assessment of existing code: what works, what needs repair or rebuilding, and a priced completion plan. Includes a call to walk through the findings.
Ask about The Code ReviewThe review is yours to keep and use elsewhere. Start the build with me within 60 days and the $3,000 is credited against the first invoice. A rescue quote follows the review, not the other way around.
Build fees are one-time project costs, not a website rental. Domain renewal, hosting, payment processing and any paid tools are separate, billed to your accounts. Optional maintenance is separate too. The written agreement sets the scope and payment terms.
What is not in it
Not every task needs AI. I’ll recommend a model only where it earns its complexity and cost. Actions affecting money or customers need an agreed human approval step. Provider limits and API access determine what can be connected; we will check those before committing to a build.
See the thinking in practice
The publishing workflow behind Operation Floating Sunshine turns a Telegram conversation into draft posts and media, with a private preview before approval. It is concrete evidence of connected tools with a person still in control.
Before you start
- Does business automation have to use AI?
No. A fixed rule or an API integration is often a better fit. If a model is useful for an unstructured step, the plan will explain its role, limits, review requirements and usage costs.
- Will there be monthly fees?
There is no mandatory studio subscription. Your existing tools, hosting or model provider may charge subscriptions or usage fees. Those costs are identified separately from the one-time build price.
Your project. Your way forward.
- You own it
On final payment, the custom code, design, content and data are yours outright—assigned, not licensed. Unfinished work remains mine until final payment. Reusable components and third-party licenses are the exceptions described below.
- The accounts will be yours from day one
Domain, hosting, DNS, analytics, email and payments will be set up in your name, on your billing, with me added where needed. You keep access when the work ends; I do not resell hosting.
- Reusable and third-party components
My reusable components remain mine, with a permanent free license for you to use, change and have another developer maintain them. Third-party software retains its own license; any relevant restrictions or paid dependencies will be identified in the plan.
- The code goes in your repository from the first commit
Your project code will be in your repository from the first commit. You can follow the changes and share the work with another developer without waiting for a final handover.
- Getting your data out
If the project holds data, it will include a documented export you can run yourself. Any limits imposed by a connected service will be explained before you buy.
- After launch
Thirty days of fixes are included for work that does not meet the agreed scope. New features are quoted separately. After that, support is $125 an hour with no minimum. Response targets: site down, same business day; other faults, one business day; changes, three business days. These are response times, not guaranteed resolution times.
- How it ends
Ongoing support has no minimum term or cancellation fee, with thirty days’ notice either way. Ending support does not disable your site. Your domain, hosting and third-party subscriptions still need to be maintained.
- If I am unavailable
There is no automatic replacement developer. Your accounts, repository and handover notes will be available to you throughout the project. If I cannot be reached for ten business days, you can give those materials to another developer and continue without waiting for me.
