Automation for small businesses · Maryland & remote
The task that eats your week? Gone by Friday.
I build small, sturdy software that kills manual work: the retyping, the chasing, the copy-paste reports. Tell me the annoying thing on Monday. It's running by Friday.
This week to-do
- Retype emailed orders into the system
- Copy numbers into the weekly report (again)
- Update three spreadsheets that don't talk
- Dig through the inbox for that one attachment
- Chase down who hasn't paid
- Run the business← yours
What I actually build
Not strategy decks. Working tools and websites, built around how your business already runs, using AI where it genuinely helps and skipping it where it doesn't.
Reports & dashboards
Live views of the numbers you currently assemble by hand. Whether that's job profitability, weekly revenue, no-show rates, or which customers have gone quiet, pulled from the systems you already use.
e.g. an owner's dashboard that replaces the Sunday-night spreadsheet ritualWebsites
A clean, fast site that says what you do and gets people to contact you. No page-builder subscriptions, no six-week agency timeline, no stock photo of a handshake. Built simple and handed over fully yours.
e.g. this site, designed and live in a dayPaperwork & forms
The paper and PDF shuffle, digitized. Client intake, estimates and quotes, new-hire packets, booking forms, anything that currently gets printed, signed, scanned, and retyped.
e.g. a client intake form that fills the contract and the calendar at onceRepetitive tasks
The stuff someone does every single day that a machine should do instead. Sorting scanned documents, sending the same reminder emails, moving data between two systems that refuse to talk.
e.g. scanned paperwork auto-read, renamed, and filed in the right folderData cleanup
The spreadsheet nobody wants to touch. Duplicate customers, product names spelled four ways, a price list in three formats. I clean it, standardize it, and hand it back ready to actually use.
e.g. a messy product catalog scrubbed and ready to importThe "probably impossible" thing
Every business has one: the workflow everyone assumes can't be fixed because it's too weird or too specific. Those are my favorite. Bring it to the intake form and find out.
e.g. a quoting tool for a fabrication shop where every job is customA week, start to finish
Most projects follow the same shape. No discovery phase that lasts a quarter. No retainer. One annoying problem in, one working tool out.
We talk
Thirty minutes. You show me the annoying thing. I tell you straight if it's automatable.
I watch
I look at how the work actually happens, not how the org chart says it happens.
I build
Head down. You'll get a working version, not a mockup.
You break it
Your team tries it on real work. I fix what's wrong on the spot.
It's done
Live, documented, and yours. No subscription to me required.
From people I've done this for
Real projects, real operators, no stock photos of handshakes.
Connor has built tools for my sales team that I assumed we'd need expensive software for. I went from digging through ERP exports to having a live dashboard that shows me sales pace, every customer's trend, and which accounts are going quiet before they become a problem. He also mapped our entire customer base so I can plan market visits by territory instead of by memory. The thing that sets him apart is speed. I mention a problem in a meeting and there's a working tool in my inbox days later, built around how we actually work.

The guy behind it
I'm Connor. By day I'm the Director of Operations at a regional food distributor, which means I live inside the same problems you do: deliveries, invoices, paperwork, and people doing things manually because "that's how we've always done it."
I'm not a software company and I'm not a career consultant. I'm an operator who got tired of waiting on vendors and learned to build instead. The tools on this page started as fixes for my own team, and the difference shows: I don't build what's technically impressive, I build what survives contact with a busy Tuesday.

Tell me what's eating your time
Two minutes, three fields. Describe the annoying thing in plain English. I'll reply within one business day with whether I can kill it, and roughly what that takes.
