AI can do a lot.
That doesn't mean your business needs all of it.
LKC Backroom Studio designs and implements human-led AI business systems around real processes, recurring work, and specific problems.
Some businesses need an existing system configured around the way they work. Others need something designed specifically for them.
Either way, the goal is the same:
Build an AI system that's useful in the real business, not just impressive in a demo.
What Could a Custom AI Business System Help With?
AI business systems can support many of the things you already do, including:
- Client intake and information gathering
- Lead evaluation and follow-up
- Offer development
- Pricing conversations and analysis
- Proposal preparation
- Client onboarding
- Customer questions and responses
- Content planning and development
- Testimonial collection and analysis
- Meeting and appointment preparation
- Recurring business decisions
- Internal processes and documentation
- Other repetitive or complicated workflows
Not every process needs AI.
Part of my job is figuring out where it can genuinely help and where human judgment should stay firmly in charge.
Ways We Can Work Together
AI System Tune-Up
$395
Already have a custom GPT or ChatGPT-based system that isn't working quite the way you expected
I'll review the existing system, identify what's causing problems, strengthen the instructions and interaction, test it against realistic situations, and refine it.
Includes:
- Review of one existing AI system
- System instruction analysis and refinement
- Conversation flow and output review
- Guardrail and boundary review
- Real-world scenario testing
- Before-and-after summary
- 7-day client testing period
- One revision round
Best for: An existing AI system that gives inconsistent, generic, confusing, or unreliable results.
AI Workflow Review
$395
Know which part of your business is frustrating, repetitive, or taking too much time, but aren't sure whether AI could help?
I'll review one defined workflow and identify where AI may be useful, what should remain human, and what I'd recommend changing.
Includes:
- Review of one business workflow
- Identification of friction and repetitive work
- AI opportunity analysis
- Human judgment checkpoints
- Recommended improved workflow
- Clear next-step recommendation
- Written AI Workflow Review & Recommendation
Best for: A business owner who knows where the problem is but isn't sure what the solution should be.
LKC AI System Setup
$695
Prefer to have an existing LKC Backroom Studio system set up specifically for your business?
I'll configure an appropriate LKC system using your business information, terminology, processes, preferences, and relevant materials.
Includes:
- One applicable LKC Studio system
- Business-specific configuration
- Relevant business information incorporated
- Four customized conversation starters
- System testing and refinement
- 7-day client testing period
- One revision round
- Customized system guide
Best for: Businesses whose needs are already addressed by an existing LKC system but want it configured and ready to use.
Custom AI Business System
Starting at $1,250
Have a business process, recurring challenge, or specialized need that requires its own solution?
I'll design and build a purpose-specific, human-led AI system around one defined business problem and primary workflow.
This isn't a collection of generic prompts. It's a structured business system designed around what you're actually trying to accomplish.
Includes:
- Async project discovery
- Business and workflow analysis
- Custom system strategy and architecture
- One purpose-built AI business system
- Business-specific instructions and context
- Guided interaction and questioning logic
- Defined outputs and guardrails
- Human judgment checkpoints
- Four customized conversation starters
- Real-world system testing
- 7-day client testing period
- One revision round
- Custom System Guide
Best for: A business with a specific process or recurring challenge that isn't adequately addressed by an existing LKC system.
Custom projects are reviewed before acceptance. More complex projects are quoted individually.
3-System AI Business Implementation
Starting at $2,250
Sometimes one system isn't enough.
The 3-System AI Business Implementation brings three related LKC systems together around your business and the way your work actually moves from one stage to another.
For example:
Lead management → Proposal → Client onboarding
or
Offer development → Pricing → Sales support
Rather than receiving three unrelated tools, you'll receive a small AI business system designed to work as a coordinated part of your operation.
Includes:
- Three appropriate LKC systems
- Business-specific configuration of all three
- Relevant business context incorporated
- Customized conversation starters
- Individual system testing
- Cross-workflow testing where appropriate
- Human judgment checkpoints
- 7-day client testing period
- One revision round per system
- Business AI Systems Guide
- Implementation roadmap
Best for: Businesses with several related processes that would benefit from a coordinated AI-supported workflow.
Not Sure What You Need?
That's completely fine.
You don't need to know which AI system to ask for.
Tell me what's happening in your business, what's taking too much time, what keeps getting recreated, or what simply isn't
working as smoothly as you'd like.
I'll review your inquiry and let you know whether I think I can help and what approach makes the most sense.
And sometimes the answer may be that you don't need an AI system at all.
I'd rather recommend the right solution than add AI somewhere it doesn't belong.
A Human-Led Approach to AI
I don't build systems designed to replace your judgment.
I build systems designed to support it.
AI can help organize information, identify patterns, guide recurring processes, ask useful questions, create stronger first drafts,
reduce repetitive work, and help you work through complicated information.
But your experience, knowledge, decisions, and judgment remain at the center.
That's what human-led AI means at LKC Backroom Studio.
How Custom Projects Work
The process is intentionally simple and handled primarily through forms, email, and written feedback.
1. Tell me what you're trying to solve.
Complete the project inquiry with information about your business, the problem, and what you'd like to improve.
2. I'll review it personally.
If I need more information, I'll follow up by email.
3. You'll receive a recommended approach.
If the project is a good fit, I'll recommend the appropriate service and provide the scope, investment, and next steps.
4. We get to work.
Once the project is approved and any required deposit is received, you'll complete the detailed project intake and provide the materials needed.
5. I design, build, and test.
Your system is developed and tested against realistic business situations before it reaches you.
6. You test it.
You'll have a structured testing period to use the system with your own real-world situations.
7. I refine and deliver.
Included revisions are completed, final documentation is provided, and the system is ready for ongoing use.
No discovery call required.
Most projects can be handled through structured intake, email, and written feedback.
If a conversation would genuinely make a particular project easier, we can decide that together.
Investment & Payment
- Fixed-scope services under $1,000 are generally paid in full before work begins.
- For custom projects of $1,250 or more:
- 50% deposit to begin
- 50% due upon final delivery and approval
** Custom projects include a defined client testing and review period.
** Larger or more complex projects receive an individual proposal.
What Custom AI Business Systems Don't Include
Unless specifically included in your project scope, services do not include:
- API development
- Complex software integrations
- CRM implementation
- Website development
- Advanced automation development
- Unlimited revisions
- Ongoing system administration
- Creation of substantial source material your business doesn't currently have
** If your project requires something outside my scope, I'll tell you before we begin.
Tell Me What You're Trying to Solve
You don't need an AI strategy prepared before you contact me.
You don't need to know what kind of system you need.
And you don't need to schedule a sales call just to find out whether your project might be a fit.
Tell me about the problem, process, or recurring work you'd like to improve.
I'll take it from there.
