What the repeat work costs you now

Your numbers, not ours. Move the sliders and see the yearly cost beside the price of a sprint.

12 hours a week in all, over 46 working weeks: 552 hours a year.

On your numbers

$8,280 a year goes on work that follows rules

  • The task, every year$16,560
  • The part that follows rules$8,280
  • Automation sprint, once$1.5K to $3.5K

At $1.5K to $3.5K, the sprint pays for itself in 9 to 20 weeks.

An automation takes over the rules-based part of the work, not all of it. The plan says which part before anything is quoted.

AI guest-service automation on WhatsApp

Prepared for Sataya Resort

A standalone, multilingual guest-service system proposed for a resort that routed every guest request through reception by phone.

The problem and the proposal

Guest requests came in by in-room phone and were routed by hand through reception: delays, miscommunication between departments, missed requests, inconsistent service and no tracking or accountability.

Proposed: one WhatsApp number for every guest request, reached by QR codes around the resort; an AI intent engine that detects the request and routes it to the right department; a digital ticket for every request; bilingual Arabic and English staff dashboards; management KPIs; and a standalone cloud deployment that needs no property-system integration.

Eight components
  • WhatsApp interface: a single number for all guest requests, via QR codes
  • AI intent engine: detects and routes each request
  • Department agents: housekeeping, maintenance, food and beverage, guest services, spa and activities, each trained on its own requests
  • Digital ticketing: open, in progress, resolved or escalated, with room verification, priority, SLA timers, overdue reminders, staff notes, attachments and audit logs
  • Staff dashboard: department queues with an Arabic and English toggle, on mobile, tablet and desktop
  • Management dashboard: response and resolution times, volume trends, department and staff performance, exports
  • QR access points throughout the resort
  • Cloud deployment, independent of existing systems

An AI automation and outreach system

Prepared for The Pivotal Group

Outreach at scale, an AI inbox, follow-ups, content and a voice agent, proposed as five phases orchestrated in n8n around an existing CRM.

The ask

Scale client acquisition without losing personalized engagement, where manual outreach capped both growth and response quality.

Proposed: one integrated platform that runs outreach campaigns, classifies and drafts replies, handles follow-ups, generates Meta content and books meetings through a voice agent, all orchestrated in n8n around the existing Go High Level CRM.

Five phases
PhaseWhat it coversBuilt on
1. Email outreach at scaleLead import and validation from CSV or the CRM; personalization by name, company, role and industry; rate limiting and throttling; bounce handling and suppression lists; domain warm-upn8n and the GHL API
2. AI inbox intelligenceReplies read over IMAP, the Gmail API or GHL webhooks; intent classified (interested, not now, not interested, more info, referral, generic); a drafted reply; optional human approval before sending; everything logged to the CRMAn LLM behind n8n
3. Follow-up engineAfter a set number of days without a reply, a tailored follow-up from the thread and the lead profile; typically 4 touches; stops on reply, unsubscribe, bounce or conversionThe n8n scheduler with CRM status
4. Meta contentPosts and ad-copy variants for Facebook and Instagram, creative briefs for designers or image tools, optional Meta Ads API integration, publishing through GHL or n8nAn LLM and Meta Business Manager

Questions

Automation and AI agents: common questions

What can you automate?

Work that follows rules: reports, data entry, inbox triage, order intake, document extraction, calls and chats, and handoffs between tools. Judgment stays with a person, and the free plan says which part is which.

What does an automation cost?

Sprints usually start at $1K for the Monday report, and the before-you-hire sprint is $1.5K to $3.5K. A voice or chat agent pilot is quoted after the free plan. Monitoring after launch is an optional care plan.

Can an AI agent be trusted with customers?

An agent handles what it can judge and hands the rest to a person, visibly. Every automation we ship is monitored, so a failure raises an alert the same day.

Do we need new software?

Usually not. We connect the systems you already run. If a tool is missing, the plan names it and what it costs.

What if nothing is worth automating?

Then the free plan says so, in writing. A tolerated annoyance is sometimes cheaper than a system.

Next step

Start with a free automation plan

Name the process eating the most hours. The plan says what to automate, the hours it returns and the price.
