(01) What we build with AI

AI connected to the work, not a demo.

Connected to the tools you already use, with approvals, logs and costs you can see.

  • AI agents that do real work

    Research, update records, follow up and run workflows, with a person approving the risky steps.

  • Voice and audio

    Talk to your app, voice assistants, call transcripts and summaries.

  • Documents and files

    PDFs, contracts, invoices and spreadsheets turned into data.

  • Images and video

    Analyze, tag, generate and edit at scale.

  • Chat and search over your data

    Answers from your own data that cite the source.

  • APIs and webhooks

    So your systems talk to each other.

  • MCP servers

    So ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Grok and any other MCP client can work with your product.

(03) Where AI pays

Start from the work, not the model.

  1. 01

    “Our team does the same manual work every week.”

    Automations
  2. 02

    “We have data nobody has time to read.”

    Summaries and reviews
  3. 03

    “Customers ask the same questions again and again.”

    An assistant on your own content
  4. 04

    “We want Claude or ChatGPT to work with our product.”

    An MCP server
  5. 05

    “We want to know what changed, not read every row.”

    AI insights in your app

And sometimes the answer is no AI at all. You’ll hear that first.

(04) How we build AI

The practices, and where they already run.

Every AI build gets the same care we put into our own product. These aren’t promises; they’re live in SelfManager.ai today.

What you getLive in SelfManager.ai
  • Costs you can see. The right model per task, with usage limits.

    Each model’s price in credits shows before a request is sent.

  • A fallback when a model fails. Your feature keeps working.

    If a model is busy, Gemini answers instead.

  • Review before it saves. AI output doesn’t overwrite your data.

    AI plans land in an editable preview before they’re committed.

  • Permissions you choose. AI sees and does only what it should.

    The MCP server can read only, make changes, or write to shared tables. It can’t delete tables, tasks, notes or comments.

  • A trail of what AI did.

    Every change through MCP is marked “(via Claude)” in the table’s log.

  • Your data stays yours.

    Requests to Claude, GPT and Grok go straight to the provider, which doesn’t train on them.

Plus testing on real data, usage tracking and a documented handover.

(05) In production

Integrations (no AI)

Shopify, SmartBill and Make: a client’s invoicing, automated end to end.

Royal Labs: a multi-step inquiry form that submits straight into HubSpot.

“Communication was clear and efficient, the integration between SmartBill, Make, and Shopify was completed successfully and everything works smoothly.”
Geanina, ecommerce client
(06) MCP servers

Your product, inside Claude and ChatGPT.

We built the MCP server for SelfManager.ai, and it runs in production. Users connect their assistant and ask in plain words: plan the day, tick a task, review the week. It works with ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Grok and any other MCP client. Each connection gets the permissions its owner chose, and every change is logged. We build the same for your product.

    With limits, fallbacks and logging from day one.

    Usage tracked, then the next use case.

The minimum engagement is $2,000. Each use case is scoped and priced before work starts.

(09) Questions

Questions before you start.

What does an AI project cost?

Every AI service starts at $5,000, MCP servers included: agents and automations, an assistant on your company knowledge, document AI, voice AI and AI features inside your product. Each use case gets a written price before work starts, and model costs are estimated up front.

What data does the AI see?

Only what the feature needs, under your rules. We decide that together before anything is built. Your data stays in your own accounts, on business API plans that don’t train on it, with access set per user.

Which models do you use?

OpenAI GPT, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini or xAI Grok, chosen per task: a fast, cheap model for simple steps, a stronger one where reasoning matters. US models only.

Will AI costs surprise us?

They shouldn’t. Usage limits and caching are built in, and you see what each feature costs to run.

What is an MCP server, and do we need one?

It’s how assistants like Claude and ChatGPT read and act inside other software. You need one if your customers or team should be able to use your product from their assistant. See MCP servers.

Can you add AI to a Shopify store?

Yes, where it pays: a shopping assistant, support answers from your orders and policies, product content and back-office automations. See AI for your Shopify store.

Do you work on visibility in ChatGPT or Google answers?

Not as a separate service. Every website we build is ready for Google and AI search, but ongoing SEO and AI visibility work isn’t part of our services.
