Frogslayer · AI Office

An AI & Automation partner on retainer.

Most middle-market companies don't have an AI team. They don't need to. AI Office gives you dedicated time every month with senior strategists and engineers — to plan, learn, and build, without committing to a six-figure engagement on day one. Plans start at $2,500/mo.

Trusted by middle-market operators & PE-backed teams

Why AI Office

Don't just "do AI." Be the leader who got it right.

The pressure to "do something with AI" is real. The path forward isn't.

Five years from now, the operators who won this decade won't be the ones who moved fastest or spent the most. They'll be the ones who made the right calls — what to build, what to buy, what to ignore, when to wait, when to bet — and got those calls into production.

That last part is where most companies stall. Roughly 80% of AI projects fail or never reach production. Not because the technology doesn't work, but because someone threw a pilot over the fence and walked away. The systems weren't ready. The data wasn't usable. The team wasn't onboard. And the experiment quietly died on a shelf next to the last three.

You don't need another side project. You need a partner who's spent two decades shipping software, data, and AI work inside companies your size — and who knows how to embed AI directly into your operations without breaking what's already working. Someone who operates inside your environment, not around it. Who gets your people adopting new ways of working, not resenting them.

That's AI Office. A senior team on retainer, in your business every month, helping you make the calls — and ship them — that put you on the right side of this. Plans start at $2,500/mo, so you can start small and prove the partnership before you scale it.

Client case study

Custom AI automation for a private investment firm.

Q Investments gave Frogslayer one job: build an AI system that reads emails and controls office automation, with 95% accuracy on the first attempt, validated against 100 defined test cases.

Frogslayer built the full integration — connecting Q Investments' email system to their automation platform, with an AI engine that interprets plain-language requests and responds automatically — and hit 80% accuracy within two weeks. By delivery, they'd cleared 95%. Finished ahead of schedule, on budget, with full documentation and a developer handoff included.

Is this for me?

A fast read on fit.

AI Office is right if

  • You're a CEO/COO/CFO at a $2M–$10M EBITDA company
  • You feel pressure to "do AI" but don't have an internal team
  • You've tried a vendor or pilot before and it stalled
  • You want a partner who can both advise and build
  • You'd rather start at $2.5K/mo than commit to $250K up front
  • You like pricing on a webpage — not in a quote

It's not a fit if

  • You already have a strong in-house AI/data team and just need extra hands
  • You need an immediate enterprise rollout
  • You want a pure advisory firm with no execution capability
  • You want offshore or body-shop pricing — not what we do
  • You're not the decision-maker (that's fine, just bring them)
FAQ

Common questions.

What does "hours per month" actually mean?
Time your team spends with our strategists and engineers — working sessions, async work in your tools, code we write, decks we build. We track it transparently. Unused hours don't roll over, but we never short-change a plan.
What kind of "small build" can you ship in a quarter?
A scoped automation that saves your ops team hours a week. An AI copilot for your sales or support team. A reporting integration between two systems that don't talk. A pricing assistant for your quoting team. Real things — not demos.
Can I cancel?
Yes. After the 3-month minimum, AI Office is month-to-month. 30 days notice and you're out. We'd rather earn your renewal than lock you in.
How does this lead to bigger work?
Often. AI Office is how most lower-mid-market clients meet us. When we identify a high-impact opportunity together, we scope it as an AI Sprint (fixed-fee, 2–10 weeks) or an AI Outcome Portfolio (custom, multi-quarter). Your retainer credits toward the first month of a Sprint.
Who is "the team" exactly?
Senior people. The same bench that delivers our six-figure engagements. We have junior people on staff, but we don't put them in front of clients without a senior lead, and we don't offshore. Our projects succeed at 3X the industry average and that doesn't come from cutting corners on retainers.
Do you sign NDAs and standard MSAs?
Yes. We have a one-page service agreement that covers AI Office. If your legal team prefers your paper, we'll work with it.
