Your outsourced AI department

The AI everyone says you need —
set up, tailored, and run for you.

You don't have to learn it, build it, or hire for it. ClearSpring brings the same caliber of AI the big companies use, fits it to how you work, shows you it running, and keeps it running.

  • Done for you
  • Enterprise-caliber AI
  • Built around your business
  • You stay out of the weeds
If this is you

You know AI should be doing more for your business. You just have no idea where to start.

No time to figure it out. No tech person to hand it to. No obvious first move. And a quiet worry, in the back of your mind, that everyone else is already pulling ahead.

The HVAC owner

Half his calls come in after hours, when he’s on a roof or at dinner. Every missed call is a job that went to whoever picked up. He knows it. He just can’t be in two places at once.

The dental front desk

Voicemails, web forms, insurance questions, three people at the counter. The good leads and the routine ones land in the same pile, and the pile only gets read when there’s a gap. There’s never a gap.

The solo CPA

Two hundred emails by Tuesday. Clients, documents, deadlines, all mixed together. The work that actually pays waits until the inbox is somewhere near the bottom — and it never gets near the bottom.

Different trades. Same wall.

Here's the part nobody tells you: you don't have to understand any of it.

You need someone to bring the right AI, set it up for the way you already work, and run it for you. Show you it working. Keep it working. That's the whole job.

That's us. Think of it as an AI department you don't have to hire, train, or manage — just one that's already on your team.

How this works

A whole AI department. Without the hiring.

Big companies run entire AI teams. A small business can't hire that — the talent is scarce, and one specialist costs more than a year of your payroll. ClearSpring is that team, shared across many small businesses like yours. You get the expertise. You skip the salary. That sharing is exactly why it's in reach.

One expert, spread across many businesses — so the caliber the big players run finally fits your scale.

01One call

Discover

We start with a conversation to find where you’re stuck and what it’s costing you. No prep, no slide deck. You talk; we listen.

02We build it

Set up

We build the tool and tailor it to how you actually work — your jobs, your words, your customers. You see it working as we go, not at some far-off reveal.

03We operate it

Run

It goes live and we run it. We watch it, tune it, and stay on call. Your part is the easy one: watch it work, and tell us what to point it at next.

You're not buying software to figure out alone. You're handing off a job — and we keep it running.

The same league as the big players

The caliber of AI the Fortune 500 run — finally in reach, sized for you.

The big players have spent the last two years putting serious AI to work. Most small businesses watched from the sidelines, priced out and out-staffed. That gap just closed. We build on the same frontier models behind Claude — the same tech the biggest companies pay for — and shape it to your business instead of theirs.

Same tech

Frontier models, not leftovers

We work across Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI and pick the right model for each job. You get the current generation — the same reasoning the largest companies build on — not a watered-down version sold to small businesses.

Your business

Built around your workflow

A big company gets AI shaped to how they already work. So do you. We learn your jobs, your messages, your paperwork — and fit the tools to that, not the other way around.

Run for you

Set up, watched, and kept working

The hard part isn’t buying AI — it’s standing it up and keeping it running. We handle setup, watch it in production, and adjust as your business changes. You see it working; we keep it working.

Pricing depends on the work. We’ll quote it plainly once we see what you need.

Wherever you're stuck, there's a first move

Pick where it hurts. We take it from there.

Six ways in — none of them the ceiling. Most owners start with the phone, because every business has one and every missed call is money walking out the door. But any of these is a fine place to begin.

Never miss a call

An AI receptionist answers when you can’t — after hours, on a roof, mid-job. It takes the message, books the slot, and texts you the details. The call you’d have lost becomes work on the calendar.

A website you’re proud of

The site that’s been embarrassing you since 2004, rebuilt — or a first one stood up from scratch. Fast, clear, and finally something you’d hand a customer without wincing.

Ads that look like you paid an agency

On-brand video ads, produced for what a small business can actually spend.

See one we made

Nothing slips through

Every incoming message — email, form, review, voicemail — read, understood, and sent to the right place. The follow-up that used to wait until you remembered now happens on its own.

The paperwork, handled

Receipts, invoices, statements — snapped, scanned, or forwarded, and turned into clean rows in the system you already use. No more shoebox, no more weekend data entry.

Whatever’s eating your week

The recurring task that quietly steals your evenings — quoting, scheduling, chasing, reporting. Describe it once; we build something that does it for you.

Pick one. We handle it. Add the next when you’re ready.

See it work

Watch the engine read a message and decide — in about three seconds.

This is the reasoning engine that runs inside what we build for you. Pick a message. Press Run. It reads, weighs urgency, decides where the message goes, and drafts the first move — the same judgment that sits behind an AI receptionist, a message router, or any build we ship.

From: alex@northwindco.com — "Hey team, we’ve been comparing options for our distribution center in Tacoma and you came up #1 on Greg’s shortlist. Need to move on this Q3 — what’s the soonest a discovery call could happen? Budget is approved, just need a 30-min walkthrough." — Alex Chen, VP Operations, Northwind Co.

Every result here is the engine's actual decision on a real example — no canned script. The destinations (Slack, your CRM, finance) get wired to your tools. What we deliver is tailored to your business; this demo just shows the kind of thinking inside it. The first build is the entry point, not the ceiling.

Proof, not promises

Every one of these is a real system, running right now.

None of this is a demo or a slide. Each one was built for a specific business with a specific problem — then handed over and kept running. This isn’t a menu to pick from. It’s evidence that whatever your business actually needs, we can build it and run it for you. Each write-up walks the real workflow, the actual outputs, and the stack behind it — including which AI lab won on which step.

About

Built by a practitioner, not a vendor.

The hard part of AI isn't the software. It's knowing which tool to use, setting it up right, and keeping it running. That's the part we do for you.

ClearSpring is Kevin Dragan — a Houston-based systems architect who builds custom AI for small businesses. Not a reseller, not a dashboard you log into and figure out alone. The tools are built on Anthropic's Claude Agent SDK — the same frontier technology behind Claude itself — and shaped to one business at a time: the emails, the invoices, the follow-ups, the missed calls.

Here's why you'd hire this out instead of buying an app and running it yourself. The product isn't a piece of software. It's the judgment to pick the right model for each job, wire it into how you already work, and stay on it as the tools change month to month. One expert doing that across many small businesses is something none of those businesses could justify hiring on their own. That shared expertise is the whole point — and it's the part an off-the-shelf AI app can't sell you.

We work across every major AI lab — Anthropic, Google, OpenAI — and pick the right model for each step of the job. When one lab pulls ahead on a specific task, we swap. You're not locked to a vendor, and nothing changes on your end.
