Follow one real-world workflow

See how the work changes.

A proposed example, not a live product demo. Select each step to see what the agent prepares and what stays with your team.

01

An inspection records an exception

A site finding needs follow-through, but the native inspection system may already have created a work order.

A day in your business

Less assembling.
More deciding.

An inspection exception and an upcoming contract renewal land together. Agents assemble the evidence so the supervisor can resolve the work and the owner can review the account.

The owner outcome: Help managers turn site notes, quality exceptions and service evidence into consistent action, without creating another disconnected work-order system.

Your business. Your AI team.

Connected to your existing work

Janitorial Manager or CleanGuru where supported, existing inspection and work-order records, approved contracts, work email and accounting exports. Native workloading and work-order features remain the source of truth.

Use native automation where it already meets the need. These are design options, not promises of working integrations.

A focused first implementation

Choose one site’s inspection follow-through or one bid template. Reuse native automation first; add only the missing coordination and review layer.

Agree the baseline, access boundaries, review owner, acceptance tests and stop conditions before activation. Measure net staff time after review and correction, not just machine output.

Three starting points, with clear deliverables.

Your AI. Your setup.

In the cloud or in your office.

You own the accounts and equipment. We help choose the practical setup for your work.

Cloud

No new computer needed

Easiest to get started and access from anywhere. Your workflows use your own cloud accounts. Needs reliable internet and provider services.

$0 equipment allowance

Office computer

A dedicated Mac mini or Dell PC

Useful when the workflow needs files or tools on your premises. You are responsible for power, internet and physical security. Cloud AI and phone services may still be needed.

+$1,500–$3,000 equipment allowance

Advanced local AI

A specialist AI computer

For a tested need to run selected AI models locally. Higher cost and more maintenance. A separately designed stack, not a local installation of Grok Bot.

+$8,000–$12,000 equipment allowance

Grok Bot is cloud-hosted. Connecting an office computer does not move Grok Bot onto that computer or make all data local. Any local-model workflow must be tested separately; phone services, integrations and some AI features may still require internet access. Equipment allowances are planning budgets, not hardware quotes. The final proposal confirms the machine, backup power, configuration, data flow and any additional installation work. Taxes, electricity and replacement equipment are extra.

Adjust the estimate

Examples, not guaranteed savings. Payback assumes you can put the returned time to useful work at the stated hourly value. Payroll may stay the same. Each package explains the assumptions below.

Low / Focused

A focused start

$5,000–$7,000
Estimated one-time implementation

1 defined workflow. One location or team; 1–2 supported integrations.

  • Lead and site-walk intake

Includes testing, team training, runbook, customer-owned deployment and 30-day defect correction. Vendor costs and ongoing support are separate.

Medium / Connected

A coordinated team

$10,000–$14,000
Estimated one-time implementation

3 defined workflows. One location or team; up to 3 supported integrations.

  • Lead and site-walk intake
  • Proposal assembly from approved rates
  • Client onboarding coordination

Includes testing, team training, runbook, customer-owned deployment and 30-day defect correction. Vendor costs and ongoing support are separate.

High / Advanced

A broader operation

$18,000–$25,000
Estimated one-time implementation

5 defined workflows for one agreed team or location. Up to 4 supported integrations, with richer exception handling and reporting.

  • Lead and site-walk intake
  • Proposal assembly from approved rates
  • Client onboarding coordination
  • Quality-issue routing
  • Staffing/job-status reporting for review

Sector-specific scope: Site-walk details and proposals based on an approved rate card. Quality and staffing exceptions go to managers; no worker assignment, discipline or guaranteed staffing.

Planning estimates, not binding quotes. Ranges assume permitted access, usable data, supported integrations and a named reviewer. The final proposal confirms deliverables, acceptance tests, handover and responsibilities.

Vendor licenses, model/voice usage, taxes and ongoing care are additional. Custom APIs, major data cleanup, regulated advice, autonomous financial actions and 24/7 response are not included unless expressly scoped. Lower software subscription prices are not equivalent to implementation services.

No managed care

$0 / month to us

Your team operates the delivered workflows after handover. No ongoing monitoring, maintenance or support included. Vendor subscriptions and usage remain your responsibility.

Care

$499 / month
