Auto-reply and lead sorting
New enquiries organized and summarized the moment they land, so you can reply in a minute. Messages are read, classified and summarized instead of you reading each one from scratch.

Practical AI tools for small businesses
One specific, practical tool that saves real hours. Not a chatbot experiment.
From $300 CAD, one-time, scoped per toolWhat it is
I do not sell AI as a concept. You pick the one thing eating your time and I build a tool that does that job, connected to what you already use.
It is the same practical approach behind SolveHFX, an AI reporting tool live across all 16 Halifax districts, scaled down to one specific task for your business.
What I can build
Booking and intake forms
A structured booking or quote-intake flow built for your business, so you get the right information the first time with no back and forth.
Report and content generators
Turn raw data or business information into a finished document in seconds. It is the same core idea behind how SolveHFX drafts its reports.
Basic automations
One repetitive task, gone. Tell me what you do by hand every week that a script could do instead, and that is the scope.
What is included
- A short walkthrough of your workflow to confirm the right tool
- The tool built and connected to what you already use
- Plain-language instructions so you can run it without me
- One follow-up adjustment after you have used it for a couple of weeks
Who it is for
Business owners with one specific repetitive task eating hours every week. It is not for general experimentation. If you cannot name the task, we will work it out together first.
How it works
- We walk through your workflowA short conversation about what you do by hand and where the hours go.
- I scope one toolWe agree on exactly one job for the tool to do, and I quote it up front.
- I build and connect itThe tool is built and connected to what you already use, with humans staying in control of anything that matters.
- You use it, then we adjustAfter a couple of weeks of real use, I make one follow-up adjustment.

Starting price
From $300 CAD, one-time, scoped per tool
Every job is scoped and quoted up front, so you know the number before anything starts. Prices are starting points, and larger or more complex jobs are quoted after a short conversation.
Not included: Third-party software or AI usage fees, hosting and ongoing maintenance are not part of the build price. I tell you what the tool needs to run before we start.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a chatbot?
Not usually. A chat can be part of it, but the point is a tool that does one specific job for your business, such as sorting enquiries or generating a report. I explain the difference in my guide to AI chat intake.
Will the AI make decisions for me?
No. Humans stay in control of anything that matters. The GoLocal Quote dashboard, for example, never posts or messages anyone automatically. Reps review each lead and send every message themselves.
What about privacy?
I collect only what the tool needs and I am open about what it does with it. If it handles personal information, we plan for that from the start. Check what privacy law applies to your business.
