The Problem

You're Caught Between Systems
That Don't Fit

Too Small for McKinsey

Enterprise consultants won't touch you. Boutique firms give you frameworks, not solutions.

Too Complex for Off-the-Shelf

Zapier and its peers break the moment your workflow has real nuance. You hit the ceiling in 30 days.

Too Lean to Hire Your Way Out

Another FTE adds overhead, benefits, management. And they still can't automate the work.

How It Works

From Bottleneck to Running System — Fast

1

Diagnose

We map exactly how your work gets done today — every decision point, every exception, every workaround. Not your ideal process. Your real one.

2

Build

Using AI-native tools, we build custom automation tailored to your business. Working prototype in days, not months.

3

Operate

We maintain, monitor, and evolve your systems as your business grows. You get a partner, not a vendor.

Built For

Real Results for Real Businesses

Regional Consulting Firm

Automated a complex payment reconciliation process running biweekly. Hours of manual work eliminated every cycle — no more errors, no more late nights.

Hours of manual work eliminated
Electrical

Specialty Electrical Contractor

Automated timesheet processing across multiple job classifications and pay structures. What used to take hours of reconciliation now runs without a single manual touchpoint.

Zero manual entry
Property Services

Commercial Property Services Firm

Built a full property tax appeal workflow — intake to filing to status tracking — in under two weeks. A process that required constant oversight now runs end-to-end.

Investment

What Does This Actually Cost?

For a $10M business, a monthly retainer with Adapted Machine costs less than a single mid-level hire — with none of the overhead, benefits, or management time. Most clients see measurable time savings within 90 days.

The Honest Comparison
Mid-level hire (fully loaded) $100K+/yr
Benefits & overhead 30–40% on top
Time to real productivity 3–6 months
Can they automate the work? Probably not
Adapted Machine retainer Less. A lot less.
Most clients see measurable results within 90 days.
