Pillar 02 · AI & Automation

The AI layer most firms
outsource or fake.

We build it into the engine from the first day. Custom agents, workflow automation, audience augmentation, content orchestration across multi-agent pipelines — owned, monitored, and tuned by the team that runs your marketing.

Agents that run,
workflows that compound.

Five AI and automation disciplines, each running in production for our own firm before we ship them to yours. Dogfood-first, always.

Custom AI Agents

RAG pipelines, tool use, MCP integrations. Agents that actually do the work — not demo-ware in a sandbox.

Workflow Automation

n8n, Make, Inngest durable functions. Multi-step orchestration with retries, branching, human-in-the-loop.

Audience Augmentation

Proprietary data reservoirs. Your past buyers, intent signals, and compounding lookalikes — refreshed weekly.

AI Content Engine

An orchestrated multi-agent pipeline. Research, editorial, and strategy agents produce long-form briefings at a scale no agency retainer can match.

Conversational Funnels

AI chat that qualifies, books, and escalates. Integrated with your CRM, your calendar, your Slack.

Monitoring + Guardrails

Cost caps, hallucination checks, eval harnesses, Slack alerts. Because unmonitored AI is a liability, not a system.

Orchestration

Specialized agents,
routed by intent.

Every task hits the agent best suited for the job. Fast agents for routing and transforms. Reasoning agents for long-form drafting. Strategy agents for architectural calls. The routing logic is proprietary — and it's why the engine runs at a fraction of what retainer agencies bill.

  • Real-time telemetry per agent, per task
  • Automatic fallback and retry on agent failure
  • Eval harness runs on every prompt change

Four steps. Not four months of research.

The AI work gets misscoped constantly because nobody wants to commit. We scope hard, build fast, and put it in production where the numbers can argue.

  1. 01

    Map Agents

    Which tasks should AI do, which should humans do, which should never be automated. The hard architectural decisions before any code gets written.

    Week 1
  2. 02

    Build

    Prompts, tools, RAG layers, workflow steps, cost caps, guardrails. Every agent shipped with an eval harness and a rollback plan.

    Weeks 2–3
  3. 03

    Deploy

    Production wiring, Slack notifications, dashboards, cost alarms. A soft launch with real traffic but a human approval gate until trust is earned.

    Week 4
  4. 04

    Monitor

    Evals running on every prompt change. Cost and latency tracked per agent. Weekly reviews of what drifted, what improved, and what should graduate to full autonomy.

    Ongoing

Running live in our own firm.
