Weniger, aber besser
Your organization has accumulated complexity—duplicate systems, legacy processes, disconnected tools. We apply the discipline of "less, but better" to reveal what actually creates value.
Three questions we ask of every system. Applied in order, they reveal what's essential and remove what obscures.
Duplicate processes, redundant systems, repeated workflows. We find what you're doing twice and consolidate into one.
Features nobody uses, reports nobody reads, tools that create more work than they save. We identify and eliminate.
Disconnected departments, siloed data, misaligned incentives. We reconnect what's drifted from your mission.
Every engagement produces tracked experiments. Here's what happens when you apply the Subtractive Triad to real systems.
The Kickstand audit revealed that most automation "bugs" are actually system constraints waiting to be understood. By treating maintenance as research, we eliminated 92% of recurring costs.
What would this mean for your operations?
Arc for Gmail went from idea to deployed product in 4 days. The speed came from constraint: a clear philosophy eliminates decision paralysis. Less deliberation, more creation.
How quickly could your next system ship?
The hermeneutic spiral shows that errors aren't failures—they're disclosures. Each bug teaches something about system intent. This reframe transforms maintenance from cost center to research engine.
What are your systems trying to tell you?
These learnings shape every engagement. Which resonates with your situation?
Fast, research-backed web presence — your entry point to AI automation
Modern websites built with CREATE SOMETHING component templates. Fast delivery (25-30% time savings), production-ready code, and built-in discovery of automation opportunities in your business.
Most clients upgrade to AI Automation Systems after identifying workflow inefficiencies during the build.
Background systems that run your business while you sleep
Production-grade automation workflows using Claude Code + Cloudflare Workers. OAuth integrations, API orchestration, background processing. Every project tracked with real metrics (time saved, cost, errors).
Long-running AI agents that make autonomous decisions
Sophisticated AI systems that run continuously, make decisions, and orchestrate complex workflows. Built with Cloudflare Workflows for durable execution. These aren't chatbots — they're autonomous business systems.
Continuous optimization and expansion of your AI infrastructure
Monthly retainer for clients running production AI systems. We maintain, optimize, and expand your automation infrastructure. Bug fixes become sustainability experiments. Performance improvements are tracked and published.
Your production systems become research material. We publish anonymized case studies on createsomething.io, establishing you as a thought leader in AI-native operations.
Onboard your team to build autonomous systems themselves
Comprehensive consulting program that transforms your team into AI-native engineers. We assess current capabilities, design a transformation roadmap, and guide hands-on implementation. Your team learns to build the automation systems and intelligent agents — we teach the methodology.
Limited to 3 transformation clients per quarter. This is a premium consulting engagement focused on building internal capability, not outsourced implementation.
Ongoing guidance for teams building AI-native systems
Monthly retainer for executive teams scaling AI-native operations. Quarterly strategy sessions, architecture reviews, performance optimization guidance. Your team builds, we advise. Access to all research, priority support, and strategic planning for your AI infrastructure roadmap.
For teams who have completed AI-Native Transformation or have existing AI infrastructure. Advisory only — no implementation work included.
Engagements typically range from $5,000 to $50,000+ depending on scope, complexity, and duration. We don't publish fixed prices because every situation is different—and we'd rather understand yours before discussing numbers.
The first conversation is always free. We'll tell you honestly if we're the right fit.
