Ops, marketing, customer success, engineering — we're small enough that a great person can shape their own role. Send a note and we'll get back to you.

Build the receptionist
that never sleeps.
We're a small studio in Atlanta building AI receptionists for service businesses — plumbers, HVAC, roofers, landscapers. Every hire changes the shape of the company. If that's exciting, keep reading.

Why here
SHORT PATH FROM IDEA TO SHIP
Decisions happen in Slack, not in three-hour meetings. Everyone touches customer conversations. If you build it Wednesday, it's live Thursday.
REAL CUSTOMERS, REAL FEEDBACK
Our customers are the people behind the counter at the plumbing shop. They tell you what works and what doesn't in the same voice they'd use with their brother-in-law.
WORK THAT COMPOUNDS
Everything you build gets used on the very next call. There's no code that ships to nobody, no reports nobody reads.
HONEST STAGE
We're still finding product-market fit. That means real upside if we're right, and real risk if we're wrong. We say so up front.
No. 02
Open roles
No open roles right now.
Tell us what you'd want to do.
We'll open W-2 sales, engineering, and ops roles once monthly recurring revenue supports payroll — hiring before revenue is how small companies die. Send a note through the card below and we'll keep you in the loop when a role opens that fits.

How we hire
01
APPLY
You fill out the form. Takes five minutes. Every application is read by Mike personally — not filtered by a keyword scanner.
02
CONVERSATION
If it looks like a fit, we hop on a 30-minute call. No case studies, no whiteboard grinds. Just a real conversation about what you'd want to build.
03
ROLE-PLAY CALL
A live 15-minute role-play call with real objections you'll hear on the job. Not a trick — just how you handle a service-business owner who's skeptical of AI.
04
OFFER · WEEK 3
Written offer with a start date. No open loops, no ghosting — if it's a no, you'll hear that too, with the reason.
