The annual chart rebuild
40–60 hrs
Importing, formatting, reformatting the same data. Every single year.
4.5 hrs
Plain-English prompts. Your brand colors. Reproducible every year.
BizWest Media — real result, not a projection.
- Your tech stack is held together with tape, and the only person who understood it left.
- You're refereeing technology decisions nobody on your staff is equipped to make.
- Every new tool promises to help and hands you another thing to manage.
You're not behind because you're not smart enough.
Most publishers cannot afford a CTO. They need one anyway.
Jacob takes the technology decisions off your desk, and a standing team does the work those decisions create. You hire none of them and manage none of them.
We took a daily human-in-the-middle process out of a publisher's paywall — and not a line of it needed AI.
Every piece of the engagement, purchasable on its own.
