Consulting

Custom AI-native company architecture. Cooper-led, hourly billing, no retainers. Three engagement structures, one outcome: a runtime that fits your team.

What I do

I install and customize the Daily AI Agents stack on your hardware for one of three customer profiles: solo founders who want their own autonomous AI company, small teams (≤ 10 people) building a product that needs an AI-native operations layer, or AI labs inside larger companies that need autonomous capabilities running locally on a workstation rather than in the cloud.

Every engagement covers three phases: install plus customize the runtime, develop one to three custom skills the customer's domain demands, then ongoing optimization for as long as the retainer holds. The methodology is the one documented at /why-us: 3-pillar substrate plus parked operator surface, voice-gated outputs, cost discipline at near zero marginal, build-prompt checklist that catches structural failure before code ships.

Engagement structures

Single setup

One-time install · scope and quote after the 30-minute discovery call

One-time install plus customize for your team. Includes the OS bundle, a customized VOICE.md for your brand, 1 to 3 custom skills scoped during the discovery call, and 30 days of email plus Discord support. Engagement scope and quote land in writing after the call so the install matches the team's actual workflow surface — a 4-person solo-founder studio is a different scope from a 25-person AI lab.

Hourly retainer

Monthly retainer · 5 hours per week minimum · rate scoped per engagement

Custom skill development, architecture review, ongoing optimization. Retainer renews monthly, cancel any time. Hourly rate is set per engagement based on team size and integration complexity. Logged hours sent weekly with a per-task summary. No retainers below 5 hours per week — below that the relationship is too thin to deliver continuity.

Per-skill bounty

Per delivered skill · scope and quote after the discovery call

Pay per delivered skill rather than per hour. Useful when you have a clearly scoped one-off capability you need built into your runtime. Each skill gets its own SKILL.md plus run.sh plus tests plus 30 days of warranty support. Scope and quote agreed during the discovery call before any code is written.

What you get

Booking

Discovery calls are 30 minutes, free, no commitment. We talk about your team, your stack, the workloads you'd want autonomous, and which engagement structure fits.

Honest disclaimers

Outcomes depend on your team and domain. Consulting buys you architecture work, custom skills, and a runtime tuned to your stack. It does not buy guaranteed business results — those depend on what your team does with the runtime after the engagement ends. The 3-pillar substrate is documented openly at /why-us and the methodology paper is at /resources; you can read both before booking. Daily AI Agents LLC is a Texas LLC; this service is software architecture work, not financial advice or investment management.
