Consult + Microapp (One-time build)
Stop guessing. We will pick one painful manual process in your business, map it out, and build a custom AI automation to solve it.
You know you are inefficient you don't know where to start or which software to buy. Before you spend a dime on software, we’ll map out exactly what is broken. Once we’ve found your most manual, hateful admin tasks in your business we’ll build a system that does them automatically. Not only will you receive a custom tool that solves a specific workflow, but you’ll learn how to identify what to build next.
What you get (Deliverables):
The Blueprint Session (90 mins): A deep-dive call to map one specific workflow (e.g., "Drafting Sales Proposals" or "Sorting Customer Support Tickets").
The Build (One-Time Setup): Your custom microapp to automate that workflow.
The "Keys to the Car" Handoff: A 30-minute training call showing you how to use it.
Use Case Examples:
1. You’re a Commercial Real Estate (CRE) or Property Management firm managing 40 commercial units (retail/industrial). The Pain Point: You lose money when complex lease terms (like rent escalations) are missed because they are buried in PDF files. Every lease is different. Some have annual rent increases based on the "Consumer Price Index" (CPI), others have fixed % increases, and others are flat. The property manager missed the "Notification Window" to increase rent for a long-term industrial tenant. They were supposed to raise rent by 4% (based on inflation) but forgot to send the formal notice 60 days prior. That missed increase cost the building owner $18,000 over the remaining 3 years of the lease term.
The Foundry Solution:
A custom "Lease Interrogator" which audits a back-catalog of leases. The Asset Manager drags a new (or existing) PDF Lease Agreement into the app and the tool finds 3 missed escalations that could still be retroactively billed, recovering $4,200 immediately.
2. You’re a mid-sized commercial GC in Chicago. The Pain Point: The estimating team is drowning in paperwork. They receive ~15 Invitations to Bid (ITBs) a week. Each RFP contains 50-100 pages of specs and legal requirements.
The Foundry Solution:
A drag-and-drop "RFP Interrogator". The app extracts critical data: Project Location, Bid Due Date, RFP Deadline, Bond Requirements, and Liquidated Damages clauses.Initial RFP review time drops from 45 minutes to 30 seconds per document.
3. You’re a boutique coffee shop or restaurant that changes specials daily. The Pain Point: You need high-quality photos of your daily specials for Instagram, but you don't have time to cook, plate, light, and photograph every single new item.
The Foundry Solution:
You get a simple, private web interface. Every morning, you’ll type "Avocado Toast with Chili Flakes," or whatever your new item may be, and 10 seconds later, you’ll have a professional-grade image and the caption ready to copy-paste to Instagram.
4. You’re a plumbing supply warehouse on the South Side. The Pain Point: Contractors walk in or text blurry photos of a broken boiler part from 1980 and ask, "Do you have this?" The counter staff wastes 20 minutes looking through catalogs.
The Foundry Solution:
The staff snaps a photo of a rusty valve. The app returns: "Likely a White-Rodgers 36C series. Obsolete. Replacement: 36J24-214. Confidence: 98%."
5. You’re a roadwork contractor in the paving business, and material prices (asphalt, aggregate, bitumen) fluctuate weekly based on oil prices. Estimators are building bids using pricing data that are 30 days old. The Pain Point: You won a 200,000 sq. ft. parking lot project, only to realize their bid assumed asphalt was $3.50/sq. ft., but the current supplier rate had spiked to $3.85/sq. ft.
The Foundry Solution:
A custom "Bid-to-Actual Matcher" using AI and a simple database connector that cost $5,000 to build. It saved $70,000 in potential lost margin in the first quarter.
6. You’re a metal fabrication shop in Elk Grove Village. The Pain Point: You have expensive, legacy machinery. When a machine throws an error code, only "Old Man Jerry" knew how to fix it. Jerry retired. Now, the junior techs spend hours flipping through greasy paper manuals while the line is down (costing $1,000/hr).
The Foundry Solution:
A junior tech snaps a photo of a flashing red light on a lathe. The app returns: "ERROR 404-B: Hydraulic Pressure Low. Fix: check Valve 3 behind the rear panel. Recommended Tool: 12mm wrench. (Source: Manual Pg 342)."
