The Backbone.

AI that actually works inside your business — set up right, put in your team's hands, and kept current — without you having to become an AI expert to run it.

AI, set up right — and actually used

The Backbone isn't a ground-up build. It's enablement: getting AI set up right across your company — the admin and account structure with the right guardrails, agents and skills in the hands of your non-technical people, a shared knowledge base, and training so it sticks.

A front-loaded sprint gets it stood up; a monthly retainer keeps it current as your team grows into it. Not a science project — a structural layer the business runs on.

Enablement sprint
~30–90 days
Scoped to your company — audit, guardrailed account structure, agents & skills, shared knowledge base, and rollout training. Priced into the first phase.
Monthly retainer
from $1,500/mo
Month-to-month capacity retainer with a generous hour floor and no hard cap. Ongoing enablement and optimization as your team leans on it more.
Who it's for
Any size
Technical or not — companies that want AI set up right and their people actually using it, with guardrails, instead of a scatter of half-adopted tools.

The core deliverables

These aren't bonuses — they're the product. Every Backbone engagement is built around getting these two right, then keeping them current as your team grows into them.

01
AI Integration Audit & Playbook

A deep dive into how your business actually runs, then 3–5 highest-ROI AI moves and a custom playbook your team can run — with an honesty rail on where AI is not the answer.

02
Voice + Brand Translation Layer

Voice fingerprint extraction, AI tools trained on your voice, and voice-loaded templates — so the AI-drafted work sounds like you, not a robot.
