AI Automation Services: From Audit
to Deployment to Operations

Three tiers designed to meet you where you are. Whether you need clarity on where to start, custom systems built to spec, or a partner to operate them long-term — one team handles all of it.

Tier 01

Clarity — AI Readiness Audit

2 – 4 weeks  ·  Fixed fee

Starting at $7,500  ·  50% credited toward Build if you proceed within 60 days

The AI Readiness Audit. Before a single system is built, we spend time inside your operations — mapping workflows, pressure-testing assumptions, and surfacing the friction your team has learned to work around. Every business has processes that haven't been questioned in years. That's where the highest-leverage automation opportunities live. We identify exactly where AI creates real compounding value versus where it would just add complexity.

But Clarity doesn't just find friction — it surfaces revenue opportunities and cost savings your team didn't know existed. Untapped data assets, underutilized customer segments, and competitive advantages buried in operations that no one had time to analyze.

The deliverable isn't a deck of possibilities. It's an execution plan with sequenced priorities, ROI projections grounded in your actual data, and a clear picture of what's worth building first.

Operations process mapping
Data quality & readiness assessment
Automation opportunity scoring
Sequenced implementation roadmap
ROI projections with risk flags
Vendor & tooling recommendations
Right for you if: You're being sold AI but aren't sure where it actually belongs in your business. Or you've tried to build automation internally and it hasn't delivered. Or you suspect there's significant operational drag in your workflows but can't pinpoint exactly where the leverage is. Or you're evaluating AI vendors but lack a clear framework to compare them.
Tier 02

Build — Custom AI Automation

4 – 12 weeks  ·  Scoped engagement

Engagements from $25,000–$75,000

Custom Automation. We design, engineer, and deploy the automation systems your business needs — whether informed by a Clarity engagement or a clearly defined specification you bring to us. No outsourced development. No junior teams learning on your budget. The same people who scoped the project build it and deploy it into production.

Custom LLM fine-tuning & RAG architecture
Agentic workflow design & implementation
System integration & data pipeline engineering
Production deployment with load testing
Security review & access controls
Team documentation, knowledge transfer & capability building — so your team can extend and maintain the system independently
Right for you if: You know where AI belongs in your business and you need it built correctly the first time. Or you've been burned by a build that never made it to production. Or your team has the vision but not the bandwidth to build AI systems alongside their day jobs.
Tier 03

Operate — Managed AI Ops

Ongoing  ·  Monthly retainer

From $10,000–$20,000/month  ·  Minimum 6-month engagement

Managed AI Ops. Deploying is step one. The systems that compound in value over time are the ones with active stewardship — monitoring for drift, retraining on new data, expanding scope, and catching failures before they become incidents. Operate keeps your automation layer healthy, compliant, and continuously improving without requiring internal expertise to maintain it. DexBlue embeds as your organization's fractional Chief AI Officer — providing the strategic AI leadership of a C-suite hire at a fraction of the cost.

And when your team is ready to take the wheel, we make that transition seamless. Operate clients aren't locked in — they're leveling up.

24/7 performance & uptime monitoring
Model drift detection & scheduled retraining
Compliance & regulatory guardrails
Monthly performance reporting
Incident response & root cause analysis
Continuous scope expansion — identifying new automation and revenue opportunities as your business evolves
Right for you if: You have automation in production and want to make sure it stays reliable, compliant, and valuable — without building an internal AI team to watch it. Or you've invested in AI but don't have a dedicated person accountable for making it deliver ongoing ROI.
The Natural Path

Most clients move through all three tiers — and graduate to full independence.

Clarity gives you confidence. Build deploys the systems. Operate makes them permanent. Own means your team runs it without us. You can enter at any tier — but the ones who compound fastest start at the beginning.
