Strategy, engineering & AI from a builder who actually writes the code. We turn the manual, copy-paste, "I'll do it Sunday night" parts of running a small business into agents that just run. Idea to deployed agent in weeks, not quarters.
Pick the scope that matches where you are. Most clients start with a Sprint and continue from there.
We build a working prototype against your real workflow so you can decide whether a production build is worth it. No commitment past the sprint.
A real, deployed agent integrated with your tools — built, monitored, documented, and handed over so anyone on your team can run it.
Roughly one new agent or major integration per month, plus maintenance on the existing fleet. Same-day Slack response. No long-term commitment.
Thorn & Bloom is a Columbus plant business selling on Shopify (columbusplantdelivery.com), Etsy, eBay, and Facebook Marketplace.
Every product change — new arrival, price update, photo swap, sold-out flag — meant manually editing the same listing across four storefronts. A single seasonal price refresh ate ~3 hours of copy-paste, and channels almost always drifted out of sync within a week.
A single Google Sheet that's the source of truth for every product. The agent reads any row marked needs_sync, then auto-pushes the change to Shopify and Etsy — and generates a copy-paste-ready block for Facebook Marketplace (which has no usable API). eBay is scaffolded and ready to flip on the moment their production-API approval clears. Daily cron via GitHub Actions, full audit log, dry-run mode for safety, automatic OAuth token refresh.
needs_sync.A mix of shipped products (live with real users) and agent templates we've architected and can deploy fast. The green dots are in production today; the templates are what your build could look like.
One Google Sheet drives Shopify, Etsy, eBay, and FB Marketplace listings. ~10 min product updates collapsed to ~30 seconds. Daily cron, full audit log, OAuth refresh.
Triages new client emails and webform submissions, runs a conflict check against your existing client list, drafts a tailored intake response, and flags urgent matters. Reads from Gmail, writes to Clio or your CRM.
Reads incoming customer emails, classifies return vs. dispute vs. complaint, pulls the order from Shopify, drafts a policy-aware refund or replacement response, and queues it to your inbox for one-click approval.
A federal procurement e-commerce platform built for government compliance, high-volume ordering, and end-to-end supply-chain management — from cart to contract. Now serving federal buyers daily.
Real-time collaboration platform with smart task prioritization and AI-assisted insights. Used by distributed product and engineering teams to ship without daily standups.
ML-powered portfolio analysis that gives real estate operators institutional-grade insights at startup speed — built for small operators who can't afford a quant team. Cuts deal-evaluation time from days to hours.
Some of our work is under NDA. Have a workflow we haven't built yet? Tell us about it →
Not every project needs an agent. When clients ask, we ship full products too — same hands-on builder, same no-handoffs approach.
Don't see your thing? We probably build that too.
Tell us what you need →We don't run a slide-deck phase. We don't bill for "discovery workshops." We get into your tools, find the most painful repeating task, and ship something that runs.
30-min call. We map the painful workflow, who touches it, where the data lives, what success looks like in numbers.
A short written scope with the agent's surface area, integrations, and what it will and won't do. Approved before any code.
We integrate, we test on dry-run, we iterate against your real data. You see progress weekly, not at a "big reveal."
Production cron, monitoring, runbook, training session. We stay close for 30 days. After that, monthly support is optional.
Kahani is a small AI and product studio based in Columbus, Ohio. We build agents and software for small businesses that want results, not slide decks. Most small businesses don't need an "AI strategy" — they need someone who will actually build the boring, useful agent that saves them five hours a week. That's the work we do.
"The deck has zero ROI. The agent has obvious ROI. We skip to the agent."
Every project is hands-on. You work directly with the people writing the code — no offshore handoffs, no junior-and-PM-shuffle. We bring in trusted collaborators when scope needs it; everyone touching your codebase is someone we've shipped with before.
Send the messiest workflow in your business. We'll reply within 24 hours with a specific take on whether it's worth automating and what it would cost. No sales pitch, no "let's hop on a discovery call to scope another call."
