MANIFESTO

We tell you how. We connect the dots and the cables. We leave when you’re speechless. Not before.

Our standard. Every engagement.
What this means in practice

Senior operator on the call from day one. Working software by week one. We do not bill by the hour, we do not leave behind a deck, and we do not hand you off to a junior.

When the system is running without us, the engagement is done.

04 /  THE PROBLEM
FOUR PAINS WE HEAR EVERY WEEK

You don’t need another vendor. You need a partner.

Most AI noise is built for someone else. The teams that win bring in operators who’ve already shipped it.

01

The owner is the bottleneck.

Quotes typed by hand. Follow-ups never sent. Your most expensive hours doing the cheapest work.

02

Knowledge lives in heads.

Your best people leave on Friday. Monday, the shop stutters.

03

Generic SaaS doesn’t fit.

Off-the-shelf was built for someone else’s company. You bend until the next pitch shows up.

04

Most AI projects never ship.

Decks. Pilots. More decks. Nothing that runs on Monday morning.

05 /  RECENT WORK
6 ENGAGEMENTS · OWNER-OPERATED

Things we’ve shipped for SMBs.

Real engagements for owner-operated companies. Each one replaced manual work with a system that runs on its own.

01 · PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
Conversational intake agent
12-field form
1 conversation
3× form completion

Warm leads now reach the GM same-hour, with the context to follow up fast.

02 · MFG & FABRICATION
Quote generation agent
2 hrs per quote
30 sec per quote
6 hrs/week back

Dimensions and material in. Draft email and price out in 30 seconds. Consistent across reps for the first time.

03 · OPS & KNOWLEDGE
SOP-grounded operations assistant
5 questions/week
0 in inbox
Founder out of the loop

New staff onboard themselves against the company’s playbooks. The “how do we do X” question stopped landing on the founder.

04 · REAL ESTATE
Listing follow-up agent
Cold pipeline
Active conversations
2× leads resurrected

Pulled six months of dormant inquiries back into conversation. Personalized follow-ups went out without a coordinator typing them.

05 · FIELD SERVICE
Dispatch & scheduling agent
Phone tag all day
Self-scheduled, confirmed
40% fewer no-shows

Customers self-schedule, the agent confirms day-of, dispatch sees the route automatically. The phone stops ringing at 6pm.

06 · LEGAL & ACCOUNTING
Client document intake agent
Inbox chaos
Files presorted
Tax prep cut in half

Clients upload, the agent reads, sorts, and flags missing pieces. Partners walk in to organized files, not 200 unread emails.

07 /  PATTERNS
A STARTING POINT, NOT A MENU

How engagements usually shape up.

Three patterns cover most owner-operated workflows. Every engagement gets designed around your business. Built on your stack, with your data, learning your edge cases over time.

N INPUTS → 1 CONVERSATION → ROUTED
01 / PATTERN

Intake & Sales Agents

Conversational lead capture, qualification, and proposal drafting. Replaces forms nobody finishes and follow-ups nobody sends.

  • Conversational intake
  • Quote generation
  • Proposal drafting
  • Lead routing & follow-up
SYSTEM ↔ AGENT ↔ SYSTEM
02 / PATTERN

Operations Agents

Agents that run on top of your existing systems. They reconcile, route, and handle the repetitive work that drains your senior people.

  • Order processing
  • Knowledge base Q&A
  • Internal SOP assistants
  • Document workflows
SIGNAL ‹ FROM › NOISE
03 / PATTERN

Insight Agents

Pull signal out of the noise. Daily briefs, anomaly alerts, competitive scans, and synthesis across the tools your team already uses.

  • Daily operations briefs
  • Pricing & competitor intel
  • Customer signal monitoring
  • Report drafting
08 /  THE OFFER
DECIDE · BUILD · STAY · HAND OVER

We help you decide. Then we get hands-on until it works.

Most companies don’t get stuck because AI is hard. They get stuck deciding what’s worth doing, who to trust, and how to wire it together. We do all three. We listen, we sort the noise, we design the system that actually fits your shop, and we stay through every connector, edge case, and kink until your team is running it without us.

  • 01
    Advisory first.We tell you when AI is the right answer, and we tell you when it isn’t.
  • 02
    Hands-on build.We design and wire the system into your existing stack, not a SaaS rental we resell.
  • 03
    We stay through the wiring.Connectors, integrations, edge cases, the first month live.

    Full handover.The day we leave, your team owns the code, the data, and the playbook.

10 /  OUTCOMES
THREE STORIES · OWNER-OPERATED

What clients say.

01

Property management intake agent. We replaced a 12-field form with a conversational intake. Form completion lifted 3×. Warm leads now land in the GM’s inbox with the context they need to follow up the same hour.

02

Quote generator for a metal fabricator. Dimensions and material in, quote and draft email out in 30 seconds. Six hours back for the owner every week, and pricing is finally consistent across reps.

03

Operations assistant grounded on company SOPs. New staff onboard themselves against the company’s own playbooks. The same question that used to land in the founder’s inbox five times a week is now answered by the system.

11 /  HOW IT RUNS
FOUR STEPS · 30 DAYS · ONE OPERATOR

How an engagement runs.

Fast on the clock. Hands-on the whole way through.

01 / STEP
Day 0

Discovery

30 minutes, free. We listen, we ask the hard questions, we tell you if AI is the right move. If not, we say so.

02 / STEP
Day 2

Scoped proposal

One page. What we build, the price, the timeline, the success criteria. No deck, no RFP.

03 / STEP
Weeks 1–4

Design and build

Senior operator runs your engagement end to end. Working software by end of week one. Weekly check-ins.

04 / STEP
Day 30+

Handover and stay

Code, docs, runbook, 60-minute walkthrough. Then we stay through edge cases and the first month live.

One senior partner runs your engagement from day zero through handover. No middle layer, no handoff.
12 /  ABOUT
SENIOR OPERATORS + ENGINEERS

Who you’re working with.

Mizmo is a senior team of operators and engineers. We’ve spent a decade inside owner-operated businesses, then another shipping software for them. We bring AI fluency, operator instincts, and accountability for results. Not a sales motion. Not an agency middle layer.

  • 01 ·

    Senior bench, no middle layer.

    The person scoping your engagement is the person delivering it. No PMs translating your problem into Jira tickets.

  • 02 ·

    Operators who ship code.

    We’ve lived inside the workflows we automate. We know what an extra hour at the end of the day is actually worth.

  • 03 ·

    Honest about when AI isn’t the answer.

    Sometimes the right answer is a process change, not a tool. We’ll tell you when that’s true and where we can still help.

13 /  FAQ
SIX QUESTIONS

Common questions.

No. You bring the business. We bring the engineering. The first conversation is in plain English about what’s hurting and why.
Chatbots reply. Agents take action. The systems we build can read, decide, write, and act across your tools: pulling data, drafting emails, updating records, routing work. A chatbot answers a question. An agent finishes the job.
Most engagements land between five and twenty thousand dollars depending on scope. Larger multi-agent systems are quoted separately. Pricing is fixed at the proposal stage. No hourly billing, no scope creep.
You see working software by end of week one. If it doesn’t meet the success criteria in the proposal, you don’t pay the build phase. We’d rather walk than ship something that doesn’t earn its keep.
Yes. Systems run inside your accounts, on your stack. We don’t retain your data. Access can be revoked on day one of handover. NDAs and DPAs are standard.
Yes. An optional monthly partnership covers tuning, edge cases, and small additions. Or your team takes the code and runs it. Your call.
