Watch your AI take shape. Configurator — Custom AI One reasoning core. Your channels fan in, your platforms fan out, your automations run underneath. Six quick decisions below and your system map draws itself at the end, ready to send to Mark for a written quote. You own every lineFounder-led, one developerFixed price after a short scoping chat ## Six decisions. That’s the whole spec. Work down the rail. Every pick is wired straight into the system map below. ### How does it reach you? Pick every channel your team and clients already use. The dashboard is always on.

Your spec travels with the message. ## Whatever you assembled, it ships on this. Six things every configuration gets. None of them optional. Every build here is a custom AI system for a company of 10 to 500 people. That is small enough to move fast and big enough that owning the code matters. You design the system above; I build it on this spine. ### You own every line Your GitHub from day one. It can never walk off a contractor’s laptop. ### One brain, not ten bots A single reasoning core. Your tools hang off it as connected services, so you can swap any without a rebuild. ### Provider-agnostic Claude, OpenAI or Gemini swapped by config: never hardcoded, never locked in. ### A knowledge base that compounds It learns your business as it runs. The longer it lives, the more it’s worth. ### Extendable without me You or a junior dev keep building on it with Claude Code. No agency dependency. ### Live and evidenced A working system signed off on milestones, rather than a slide that ages on a shelf. ## From this spec to a running system. Four steps. Order matters. Step 01 ### A short chat A short scoping chat with me. You walk me through the build you configured, and I tell you straight what’s smart and what’s overkill. Step 02 ### I scope I turn it into a one-page spec (channels, platforms, automations and hosting) with a written fixed-price quote. No surprises later. Step 03 ### I build Weekly Friday demos. You watch the real system come together and steer it. Every line lands in your own repo from day one. Step 04 ### You own it Go-live on your infrastructure, your team trained, the code yours. Extend it yourself or with any developer, with no agency dependency. ## Questions worth asking. ### What does ‘you own it’ actually mean? Every line of code lives in your own GitHub from day one. It ships as a Docker image you can run on your server, any VPS or my managed cloud. No lock-in: if you walked away tomorrow, it keeps running and any developer can extend it. ### Why one brain instead of separate bots? Separate bots can’t share context: each needs its own glue, memory and maintenance. One reasoning core with your tools as connected services reasons across everything at once, and you can add or swap a tool later without touching the rest. ### Can I start small and grow it? Yes. Most clients start with the core plus the one or two flows that prove value, then extend. Because you own the code and the knowledge base compounds, every later piece builds on the last. ### How do I get a price? Send me what you assembled here. Fixed price, quoted after a short scoping chat with me, usually within a few days. You get a real number for your build, not a guess. Not ready to configure yet?
