Show the work. Win the bigger jobs.
More quote requests for bigger jobs.
Your best work sells itself, once people see it. We film your builds from first day to final reveal, put them in front of homeowners planning a project, and make sure no quote request goes unanswered while you're on the tools.

What we make for you
Built for trades.
- 01

A cinematic film of a finished project for your website, quotes and socials.

In every retainer
- 04
Missed-call text-back
When you can't pick up on site, the caller gets a text straight away, so the job doesn't go to the next number on Google.
In every retainer
- 05
Google profile and reviews
Show up when people search for your trade nearby, and turn happy clients into reviews.

- 06
AI Receptionist
Answers every call while you're on the tools, books site visits into your calendar and texts you every lead. It always says it's an AI.
Tachi and up
- 07
AI Quoting Agent
No more quoting after dinner. We install an AI agent set up with your rates, your materials and the way you quote. It drafts each quote from the job details the same day; you check it and send it.
Tachi and up
- 08
KurōAI
Run the business from your phone, even on site. KurōAI is the assistant we built to run Ichiban, set up for you: message it, or wake it by voice with a name you choose, and it handles the admin, tells you when each job is done and checks with you before anything important.
Tachi and up
- 09
Automation workflows
The busywork, automated: every new lead into your CRM, booking confirmations and reminders, a review request after every job and a daily summary on your phone, connected to the tools you already use.
Tachi and up
- 10
AI agent employees
A team of AI agents inside KurōAI, each with its own job: one follows up every quote, one books site visits and one chases unpaid invoices. They work around the clock, always say they're AI and check with you before anything important. We build them and look after them.

Why it pays
Why it pays in trades.
Almost no competition on video
Trades win big jobs, and very few trades show their work on video.
One job covers it
One mid-size job covers the starter fee twice.
Never lose a job to a missed call
Every caller gets a reply in seconds while you're working.
Quotes you can count
We count quote requests from our ads, form and number, or the value of jobs won.
And for every client
A 90-day target, reported monthly
Every plan starts with a goal we set together at kickoff. Every result is reported.
One plan, not four bills
Content, ads, lead capture and reporting in one weekly price, billed monthly.
You own everything
Your ad accounts, tracking, data and creative belong to you, always.
Cinematic by default
Every reel is lit, shot and cut like a film. It's why people stop scrolling.
Your 90-day starter
Prove it first. Then choose your sword.
