Software for the work you still do by hand.

I build custom AI-powered web applications for small businesses and agencies — tools that read the paperwork, route the requests, and answer from your own files instead of adding another dashboard to check. One person, start to finish, no agency markup.

Tell me the process that's costing you time. No pitch call required.

Client projects I've worked on

First time here?

Tell me about the workflow slowing your team down. I'll review the process and suggest a practical next step — whether or not you hire me.

Referred by someone I've worked with?

Skip the teardown. Tell me who sent you, the work you need, your budget and timing, and I'll discuss scope directly.

What I do

Three ways to work together.

Fixed scope, agreed before I start. Half up front, half on delivery. No hourly billing and no surprise invoices.

Fastest

Focused AI Application

From $5,000

One process that's eating hours every week. I build the tool that ends it, with AI doing the part a person shouldn't have to.

  • One workflow handled end to end
  • Document reading, drafting, or classification scoped to that task
  • Connected to the tools you already pay for
  • Clickable version to review before anything is final
  • Starting scope: one workflow; added workflows and integrations quoted separately
Highest leverage

Lead Generation Platform

Custom Quote · scoped per industry

Software that finds your next customers instead of waiting for them. A computer-vision scoring model I built for real estate photography; the same approach adapts to most service businesses.

  • Automated prospect scraping from public sources
  • Computer-vision scoring that ranks who is most likely to buy
  • Deduplicated call list delivered on a schedule
  • Dashboard to work the list and track outcomes

Built to get found — by Google and by AI.

People ask search engines and AI tools for recommendations. SEO and content audits are a separate service, not part of every application build.

SEO

Search Engine Optimization

The classic version: ranking on Google. Clean technical structure, fast load times, metadata and schema done right, and content built around what your customers actually type into search.

GEO

Generative Engine Optimization

Getting cited when someone asks an AI chatbot instead of Google. AI answer engines pull from clear, well-structured, fact-dense pages — so that's how your site gets written and tagged.

AEO

Answer Engine Optimization

Winning the direct answer: featured snippets, "People also ask" boxes, voice search. Content structured as clear questions and answers so the engine can lift it straight onto the results page.

What a useful application changes.

The right tool removes repeat work and puts the information your team needs in one place.

Less Repetition

Automate routine intake, document handling, and follow-ups so your team can focus on the decisions that need a person.

Clearer Handoffs

Keep requests, context, and next steps together instead of copying them between inboxes and spreadsheets.

Useful Access

Give the right people access to the information and actions they need, without another disconnected dashboard.

Connected Tools

Bring existing systems into the workflow where integrations make sense instead of rebuilding everything from scratch.

Lead generation

Find the right prospects.

A lead platform can identify businesses with the problem you solve and give your team a ranked list to review instead of another spreadsheet to maintain.

Case study · Real estate photography

Real Estate Lead Platform

Agents with weak listing photos are the ones most likely to hire a photographer. So instead of cold-calling every agent in the market, this scrapes live listings, scores the photography on each one, and ranks what's left into a call list sorted by how badly they need the service.

  • Scrape — pulls live listings across the target market on a schedule
  • Score — computer-vision model rates the listing photography
  • Rank — worst photos plus best commission potential float to the top
  • Export — a clean call list, ready for whoever is dialing
A ranked call list up front, with the listing context behind every lead.

Built for Your Niche

The scoring rule is whatever signals your buyer. Bad photos, no website, outdated hours, missing license — if it's visible on the public web, it can be scored.

Runs on a Schedule

It re-runs on its own and only surfaces what's new, so the list stays current without anyone maintaining a spreadsheet.

Yours to Keep

Deployed under your accounts with a short doc. No monthly seat fee to me, no platform you get locked into.

Want one pointed at your market? Tell me who your ideal customer is and what makes them a good fit — I'll tell you whether it's findable on the public web.

Ask About a Lead System
How it goes

Four steps, no mystery.

Discovery

We identify the workflow, the people involved, and where the current tools fall short.

Fixed Scope

One page: what I'm building, what it costs, when it's done. You pay half to start.

Build & Review

You get a live link you can click through long before launch. Revisions happen here, not after.

Launch & Hand Over

Deployed on your domain with a short doc so nothing is locked behind me.

Questions

The things people ask first.

Not covered here? Email me about the workflow and I'll answer directly.

Who am I actually hiring?

Me — Adrian Woodbury, a software engineer in Charlotte, NC. You work with me directly for the whole project. No account manager, no handoff to a junior, no offshore team.

What does it cost?

Focused AI applications start at $5,000. Custom business applications start at $12,000. The final fixed price depends on the workflow, integrations, and agreed scope; larger platforms are quoted separately.

How long does it take?

Timing depends on scope and integrations. I'll put a delivery schedule in the proposal before work begins.

Do I own the application when it's done?

The handover and hosting arrangements are defined in the proposal, so you know what you'll receive before work begins.

What if I already use other software?

Tell me where your current tools fall short. If a simpler fix makes more sense than a new application, I'll say so.

Do you do ongoing maintenance?

Yes, on a simple monthly arrangement after launch — updates, changes, and monitoring. It's optional and not bundled into the build price.

Tell me what's not working.

Tell me what your team does by hand and what you wish the software could handle. I'll reply with a practical next step. No pitch call required.
