Start with one everyday problem

Too many tools.
Too many
loose ends.

A customer request in your inbox. Updates buried in a spreadsheet. Missing details that send someone chasing an answer. Your team keeps piecing the work together before the next person can act.

01 — Find the friction

An example: request to ready-to-review

One clearer
way to work.

Turn a request into a clear summary, a missing-details checklist and a follow-up draft. In a Workflow Setup, staff check the facts and move the approved information into your existing system. Nothing sends, prices or schedules itself.

01 / The problem

Work that keeps landing
back on your desk.

Different industries. Familiar friction: repeated data entry, scattered requests and information lost between people and systems. We start with the workflow that slows your team down, then find a practical fit for your business.

  • Inquiries arrive in pieces.Bring the approved details into one record your team can review.
  • The same information gets typed twice.Improve the existing process first. Add a supported connection only when the remaining retyping justifies it.
  • Every follow-up starts from scratch.Prepare a clarification draft from known facts. Your team checks it and decides what to send.
  • Missing details hold everything up.Flag what is missing and give a named person the next step.
  • People are unsure how to use AI.Practice real tasks, review answers and learn when to take over.
  • It is hard to tell what is improving.Compare time, corrections and completed work with an agreed starting point.

02 / What we do

Practical AI.
Useful every day.

  1. Workflow setup & team training

    Workflow Setup improves one task for one office team. We configure a useful feature in your existing software, add a staff-operated AI helper only if it helps, test real examples and teach your people to run it. Staff stay in charge of moving information and completing the work.

  2. Supported workflow connections

    When two applications need to exchange approved information, a Connected Workflow uses an official, supported connection. More complex work becomes a separately scoped Production Workflow. We verify access, cost and qualified technical delivery before promising a build.

  3. Handover & optional workflow care

    Testing, staff practice, written instructions and a manual backup are part of delivery. After handover, you can operate the workflow yourself or choose care matched to the support and monitoring you actually need. Care is optional; new workflows get their own scope.

Make one task easier. Prove it. Connect only when it pays.

03 / How it works

Five steps.
No surprises.

Start with a free, focused conversation about one office task. We check what your software can already do, choose the smallest useful scope and agree how your team will know it works.

  1. Map the work and measure it

    Show Tyler the task, a few redacted examples and the software involved. We identify missing details, repeated steps and who owns the handoff, then record current handling time. A built-in feature—or no project—may be the right answer.

  2. Agree scope and boundaries

    Choose Setup, Connected or Production based on the actual gap. Agree the inputs, users, price, permissions, exclusions and acceptance tests in writing. Any integration needs a supported route and qualified technical sign-off before a commitment.

  3. Configure before you customize

    Use customer-owned accounts and the features you already have. Setup keeps transfers in staff hands. Connections and custom builds add only the approved actions, with review, error handling and a way to continue manually.

  4. Test the work and the exceptions

    Test normal work, missing facts and the ways a task can fail. Setup includes 10 cases, Connected includes 20, and Production starts with 30 plus access and recovery checks. Your staff complete fresh examples before acceptance.

  5. Train, hand over and measure

    Train an office champion and a backup. Leave the operating checklist, test record, known limits and manual process. Review the result against the starting point. Setup includes a seven-day follow-up; delivered defects are corrected for 30 days.

04 / Pricing

Start small.
Build on what works.

Choose the smallest level that solves the problem. Setup improves how people do the task. Connected moves approved information between supported tools. Production handles a custom software gap. We confirm fit, total cost and delivery readiness before work begins.

Defined work. Clear ownership. Care by choice.

  • Workflow Setup is $2,500, paid before the reserved start. Connected and Production projects use 60% at kickoff and 40% at written acceptance, unless the signed scope states otherwise.
  • 30 days of corrections cover defects in what we delivered. New features, changed systems and expanded scope require written approval and a separate quote.
  • Customer software, connector licenses, AI usage, applicable tax and extra travel are separate and identified before commitment. You normally pay your software providers directly.
  • Care is optional, billed monthly in advance after acceptance and the 30-day correction period, with 30 days’ cancellation notice. Unused time does not roll over; new workflows, major changes and after-hours work are excluded.
  • Your accounts and data stay under your control. You may self-manage after handover. Deliverable rights, support coverage, cancellation and refund arrangements are set out in your written agreement.

05 / Security & control

Your accounts.Your decisions.

Security starts before access is granted: agree the data, limit permissions, keep consequential decisions with people and test a manual way to carry on.

Read our security approach

Three decisions. Agreed together.

Before we build

01 / Access

Connect only what the work needs.

Your business owns its accounts. We use named, revocable access and multifactor sign-in where supported. We agree the data, destinations, retention and provider terms before use. Passwords never belong in an AI prompt.

Agreed upfront
You keep your accounts. Access has a named owner and an end.

02 / Approval

Keep important decisions with a person.

AI can organize supplied facts and prepare a draft. Your staff approve prices, schedules and customer messages. Missing information stays marked missing. Text inside an email or document cannot grant access or authorize an action.

Agreed upfront
Permitted actions, approval checks and test results.

03 / Handoff

Keep a tested way to carry on.

We test failures as well as normal work. Your team receives instructions to stop processing, handle exceptions and work manually. Handover names the support contact, coverage and steps to export your materials and remove our access.

Agreed upfront
A person to contact, recovery steps and a clean exit.

Rather ask a person?Talk with Tyler

11 questions. A clearer place to start.

Is CHUMOS a fit for my business?

Businesses across industries are welcome. The best fit is recurring office work, existing software and a team ready to test a better process. We assess the workflow, access and business value together. Sensitive or regulated data needs specialist review. CHUMOS does not offer website projects, emergency IT repair or whole-system replacements.

What do I actually get for $2,500?

One task improved for one team of up to five users on one existing business platform: native configuration, a staff-operated AI helper if useful, 10 test cases, two working sessions, written instructions and a seven-day follow-up. Staff review and manually transfer information. Automatic connections, APIs and custom apps are not part of Setup.

How are Setup, Connected and Production different?

Setup changes how your people do the task. Connected uses an official connector for one handoff between two supported applications. Production is a separately engineered API or custom workflow with validation, approval, logging and recovery. We recommend the smallest useful level; a Setup is not a deposit toward an undefined build.

Do we need new software—or AI at all?

Not necessarily. We check the features you already pay for before adding a tool or custom code. A better form, template or staff procedure may be enough. Any connector or API requires verification of the actual plan, access, actions and technical delivery before we quote it.

How is our data handled? Will AI use it for training?

We agree permitted data, named access, destinations and retention before use. Training, storage and deletion terms depend on the actual provider and business plan, so we review those settings rather than make a blanket promise. Ordinary business administration is the starting scope; sensitive regulated information needs specialist review. Never send passwords or customer records through this inquiry form. Read our security approach.

Who approves what the AI does?

Your staff check the source facts and approve prices, schedules, purchases and customer messages. The Setup helper can summarize, flag missing details and draft a clarification; it cannot diagnose, promise availability or send on its own. A connection or custom workflow can perform only its explicitly approved actions. Uncertain facts go to a person.

How will we know whether it helps?

We agree a baseline and compare similar work after delivery, including handling time, review time, corrections and staff usage. Your team must be able to complete fresh examples and use the manual fallback. Time saved is useful capacity, not automatically cash savings; we do not guarantee a revenue increase.

How long does a project take, and how do we pay?

Workflow Setup targets five business days after examples, access and staff availability are ready, with $2,500 paid before the reserved start. Connected and Production dates follow technical review and use 60% at kickoff and 40% at written acceptance unless agreed otherwise. Your written scope confirms timing, milestones and cancellation/refund arrangements.

Is ongoing care required?

No. You receive training and handover materials and can operate the workflow yourself. We include 30 days of delivered-defect correction. Optional care then begins at $350/month for Setup, $750 for Connected, $2,000 for Production or $3,000 for up to three workflows under Operations Care. Each plan has a defined allowance, monthly advance billing and 30 days’ cancellation notice.

What costs are separate from the project fee?

Your business platform, connector licenses, AI usage, applicable taxes and extra travel are separately identified. Software accounts normally remain directly with you. New workflows, migrations and major changes receive their own scope, so you can consider the full cost before committing.

When can we reach you for support?

Monday–Friday, 8 AM–5 PM Central, excluding observed US federal holidays. Messages can arrive anytime. We aim to acknowledge by the next support day; repair time depends on the issue. Any faster response target for technical care must be supported by confirmed coverage and agreed in writing. Care does not imply 24/7 monitoring or after-hours service.
