AI Operations Diagnostic
$2,500
A working audit of where your team's time actually goes, a prioritized automation map, and an implementation proposal. The fastest way to find out what's worth building.
Get startedWe build and operate the systems your organization runs on.
The outsourced technology function for organizations that have outgrown spreadsheets and disconnected tools. We design, build, and operate the software, data, and AI underneath your work. One accountable team.
Diagnose
Find the real constraints and where the time actually goes.
Build
Data, workflows, integrations, and AI, governed from day one.
Operate
Hosted, monitored, and maintained so it keeps working without you watching.
Improve
Measure what's used, fix what isn't, and extend as you grow.
The central idea
AI is not a software purchase. It is an operating decision.
Automation magnifies whatever is already there. We make the work, data, and controls coherent first. Then we use AI as a force multiplier, not a novelty that creates new mess.
Talk through your operationIntelligence
AI that researches, drafts, analyzes, and acts inside permissions you can inspect.
Workflow
Clear ownership, handoffs, exceptions, and controls before automation ever touches the process.
Data
FoundationOne reliable operating record, reconciled across the tools and teams that currently disagree.
What we do
What we build × how we engage.
Six capabilities, four ways to engage. Start with a diagnostic, a single build, a standing operation, or a seat at the table. Every capability is available at every level.

Built, then run
Every engagement ends with something running in production that your team uses on Monday, not a deck of recommendations.
The economics
Cheaper than the hire. And you own what we build.
The real alternative to us isn't a cheaper subscription. It's hiring a technology team, or renting tools forever and owning none of it. We're a fraction of the first, and the end of the second.
The cost of a technology function · per year
One senior engineer, in-house$150k+/ yr
Fully loaded, before benefits and management. You still buy the tools, and ramp is measured in months.
RFT Media, managedfrom $18k/ yr
A full technology function, built and operated for you from $1,500/mo, not one salaried engineer.
Same capability, a fraction of the cost. And it often pays for part of itself, retiring the third-party SaaS it replaces.
You own what we build
The systems become your asset to keep, not a subscription you rent forever.
One team runs it
We build, host, and operate it, with one number to call when something breaks.
Live in weeks
Working systems in weeks, not the months a new hire takes to ramp.
Plans & pricing
Start with a diagnostic. Scale into managed operations.
Every engagement is scope-priced. You know the number before we start. Websites, platforms, and automation builds are quoted per project, typically $10k–$15k+.

Get startedWho we build for
Built for organizations where the operation has outrun the tools.
Industrial · Technical · Manufacturing
Modernize the systems that run the operation.
For technical companies carrying legacy software, disconnected data, and processes no vendor has touched in years.
Utilities · Municipal · Public Service
Reliable digital infrastructure, managed and accountable.
For utilities and public bodies that need websites, notifications, and records to work every day, with someone responsible when they don't.
Faith · Nonprofit · Mission
Do more of the mission with fewer manual hours.
For mission-driven organizations where giving, communications, and member data live in too many places and take too much hand-work.
Evidence, not theater
We implement what we recommend.
The advice comes from systems we built and still operate, carrying real money, real data, and real people every day. Not slide decks. Every recommendation traces back to something running in production.
