Ways to work together

Four ways to get help with your AI and software decisions.

Same person, same plain language, and every price printed right on this page. Pick the shape that fits the problem you have right now — each one starts with a real problem, not a sales call.

01

Unstick one decision

One focused call on one real problem. You bring the thing that's stuck — a tool choice, a quote you're not sure about, a workflow that won't behave. You leave with a plan you can act on, whether we work together after or not.

02

Built for you, fixed fee

A build with a defined shape: an automation, a private AI setup on your own machines, a small tool that does the one job your off-the-shelf software won't. Fixed fee — you know the number before we start, no surprise invoices.

Starts at $500 · remote

03

A skeptic on retainer

Ongoing, part-time advice for owners mid-decision: someone to check the vendor's claims, read the quote before you sign, and say what's worth doing and what isn't. The retainer most clients start with.

From $300/month · month to month

04

Ask before you spend

No form, no funnel. Write me a paragraph about what you're trying to fix and I'll tell you honestly whether I can help — including when the answer is that you don't need me.

Before you pick

Two questions settle it:

  • Need a decision fast? A session gets you a plan this week.
  • Need the work done for you? A project puts it in my hands, fixed fee.
  • Thinking out loud? The retainer gives you someone to check your calls.
  • Not sure it's worth money at all? Send an email. Free, and the honest answer might be no.

I'm David. I build AI that keeps your data yours.

"Most companies are selling you fear and complexity. He cuts through the bullshit and just fixes things. That's what partnership looks like."
