Integral Employees are custom-built AI agents trained on your data, connected to your systems, and deployed to fill specific operational roles in your business. Starting at $1,000. Ready in days, not months.
The scoping call is 30 minutes. No pitch. We map the role, scope the build, and give you a price. You decide from there.
The Situation
You are answering the same questions your front desk person should be handling. You are chasing the invoice your billing coordinator should be following up on. You are writing the proposal that should already be drafted by the time you look at it. You are the founder. You are doing fifteen-dollar-an-hour work with a five-hundred-dollar-an-hour brain. And you know it.
This is not a time management problem. It is a structural problem. There are roles in your business that need to be filled. You have not filled them, not because you are unaware, but because every solution you have looked at required something you were not willing to accept: a full-time salary for a part-time problem, or a hire who needed more managing than the task was worth, or software that required more configuration than you had time to do.
So the problem stays open. The leads do not get followed up on fast enough. The invoices sit at 60 days. The proposals take too long to turn around. The onboarding feels different every time. The reviews go unanswered. And you absorb the cost of each one in the currency you can least afford to spend: your time and your margin.
LEADS. A lead comes in at 6:47 on a Tuesday evening. Nobody responds until the next morning. By 9am the prospect has already spoken to two competitors. This is not a staffing failure. There is simply no one whose job it is to respond immediately, because you cannot justify a full-time hire for what might be a ten-minute task. So you lose deals to competitors who have solved this problem, and you accept it as the cost of running lean.
INVOICES. You have money sitting in aging receivables right now. You know the number. You have been meaning to follow up on the 60-day ones for three weeks. The conversation feels awkward. It interrupts the relationship. So you delay, the delay becomes a habit, and the habit becomes a cash flow problem that has nothing to do with how good your business actually is.
PROPOSALS. Your close rate would improve if you responded faster. Every founder who has lost a deal to a slower competitor knows this. But proposals take time because they require you, and you are already behind on three other things. So proposals sit in queue, deals cool off, and your pipeline feels less predictable than your revenue should be.
ONBOARDING. Every new client triggers the same sequence. The same welcome email. The same documents. The same explanations. The same follow-ups on incomplete items. It lands on you or your best senior person every time because nobody else knows the process well enough to handle it without creating a different problem downstream.
REPUTATION. You have reviews sitting unanswered. You have happy clients who have never been asked to leave one. Your Google profile looks like nobody is home. You mean to fix this. It never becomes urgent enough to address before something else takes priority. Meanwhile your competitor with 200 reviews and a 4.9 rating is winning the first impression you are not even competing for.
You have probably tried to solve one or two of these before. A hire who cost more than the problem. A tool that required expertise you did not have time to develop. A contractor who needed more management than the task was worth. The solution was supposed to reduce your workload and it added to it instead. That is not a you problem. That is what happens when the solution requires a human.
The Solution
An Integral Employee is a custom-built AI agent designed to fill one specific operational role in your business. Not a generic tool you configure yourself. Not a subscription that requires your team to learn a new platform. A AI employee. Built for your specific workflows. Trained on your data. Connected to your systems. Ready to do the job the day it is deployed.
Every Integral Employee has a defined role, a defined skill set, and a defined integration with your existing tech stack. It does not require managing. It does not require onboarding. It does not require a benefits conversation or a performance review. It shows up every day and does the job.
"Every AI tool you have tried before was built for everyone. That is why it did not work specifically for you."
Your business has specific workflows, specific client expectations, specific data, and specific systems. A generic tool cannot account for any of that. An Integral Employee is built for your business and only your business. It knows your products. It knows your pricing. It knows how you communicate. It knows your calendar and your CRM and your billing system. It is not a tool. It is a AI employee.

The Roster
Each Integral Employee fills one specific role. Think of this the way you would think about hiring. You would not hire one person to do all of these things. You would identify the gap that is costing you the most right now and fill that one first. That is how this works.

If none of the ten standard AI employees describe your most pressing operational gap, Custom is where we start. Some of the most effective AI employees we have built were for roles specific to a particular industry, a particular workflow, or a particular tech stack combination that no standard product could address. Custom Integral Employees are scoped in a dedicated session before any build begins. We map the role precisely, define the outputs, confirm the integrations, and build exactly what your business needs.
Starting at $1,000. Scope determines final price.
Tell Us What You NeedThe Team Offer
Most founders start with one AI employee. That is the right first step. But the founders who feel the biggest shift in the first 90 days are the ones who fill three roles simultaneously and let the compound effect of multiple closed gaps hit their business all at once. A business with no one answering calls, no one following up on invoices, and no one responding to leads is carrying three separate revenue and cash flow leaks. Closing one helps. Closing all three changes the math.

Human hire figures reflect average annual compensation for equivalent roles based on publicly available salary data. Individual results vary. After the one-time build you own your AI employee on your own Lovable Cloud account, with roughly $100/month total for hosting and support (about $50 Lovable Cloud + $50 to us).
The Process
There is no lengthy onboarding. No implementation project you manage. No configuration phase that requires your attention for weeks. Here is what happens after you book.
We map the role you need filled. We identify the specific workflows it will handle, confirm the systems it needs to connect to, and scope the build. You leave the call knowing exactly what your AI employee will do, what it will cost, and when it will be ready. No surprises after this call.
Our team builds your AI employee using your data, your voice, and your operational context as the foundation. Standard builds take about one week. Custom builds take two to three weeks. You do nothing during the build phase except answer any clarifying questions we bring to you.
Your AI employee is connected to the systems the role requires: your CRM, your calendar, your phone system, your email platform, your accounting software, or whatever the specific role demands. We handle every integration. You do not configure anything.
Before handoff, every AI employee goes through a structured testing phase. We run real scenarios, confirm outputs meet the defined standard for the role, and resolve anything that does not perform exactly as specified. Then a dedicated handoff session with you and any relevant team members shows you what the AI employee handles automatically, what it surfaces for human review, and how to adjust it as your needs evolve. After the handoff, the AI employee works. You do not manage it.
30 minutes. No pitch. Just a clear scope and a price.
Is This Right for You
25-year operator and advisor to founder-led businesses, and author of six books on applying AI inside small companies. Brett personally scopes every Integral Employee from the operator's seat.
Why Integral
Every Integral Employee is scoped by someone who has spent 25 years inside founder-led businesses — watching exactly where capacity breaks down.
That's the difference between an agent built by a developer who understands technology, and one scoped by an advisor who's watched what actually breaks in a $5M business. Brett Thomas comes to this from the operator side — and every AI employee we build carries that perspective.
