Software & AI consulting

Do more with the team you have. Now inside your business.

Rishi has augmented cannabis teams for years — more doors, more markets, more coverage without the headcount. We now apply the same approach to what happens behind the counter: your internal processes, systems, and programs, run on AI and agents so the same people can take on bigger work with less.

1.6M+

field and operational observations behind every recommendation, because we instrument before we build

Where this comes from

We have been augmenting this industry's teams for years.

Rishi's field operation put trained people in more doors across more states than any single brand's headcount could cover, and instrumented every hour of it — 1.6M+ observations, 100+ brand partnerships, a team built from 0 to 100+ across 3 states. The operating discipline in this work is not an agency's, it is an operator's.

That is the discipline we now point inward. The field taught us how to scale output without scaling headcount. Agents are how the same idea gets applied to the work that never leaves the building.

Services

What we actually do.

Three lines of work, one standard: the assessment names what to build, then software and agents run against your real systems and move a number you report on.

Custom software

Software built for how you already work.

Most of the work that eats your week lives in spreadsheets, text messages, and one person's memory. We build the software that replaces it, and we connect it to the systems you already pay for, so nobody has to learn a new way of doing their job.

Internal toolsConnects to your systemsCustomer portalsReporting

AI agents & automations

Software that does the work instead of asking you to.

Ordering, paperwork, compliance records, follow-up, reporting. We build AI that handles that work inside your business, and we check what it produces before anyone relies on it. You stay in charge of every decision that matters.

Handles the paperworkFollows up automaticallyFlags problems earlyNothing goes out unchecked

AI strategy & assessment

Straight answers about what to do first.

You do not need to become an AI expert. You need someone to tell you honestly which two or three things are worth doing, what each one is worth to you, and which to do first. That is what we hand you, in writing.

What to do firstWhat it is worthWhat it costsWhat to skip

What it costs

Start free. Then $899. Everything else we quote.

Every step below is one path, in order. The first two cost the same for everyone, so those are the two we print. Past that, the number depends on your business, so we work it out and put it in writing before you commit to anything.

Step 1

The conversation

Nothing to prepare and nothing to buy. You tell us how the business actually runs, and we tell you the two or three places we think AI would get you something real. If that is all you want, that is all it costs.

Free

30 minutes

Step 2

The AI Opportunity Map

We go through how you operate and hand you a written plan: where the hours are going, which of that work AI can take, what each one is worth to you, and which to do first. The plan is yours to keep whether you work with us or not.

$899

One week, fixed price, and it comes off your build

Step 3

The full assessment

The deeper version, for when you want the whole picture before committing. Every process mapped, ranked and priced, with the plan for the first build spelled out.

Quoted

Two weeks

Step 4

Your first build

One workflow, working, inside your business. Not a strategy document and not a platform. You see it running before committing to anything larger, and the cost depends on what the workflow touches.

Quoted

About six weeks

Step 5

Ongoing

We keep building the next thing and we keep what we built running: monitoring it, checking its output, and moving to the next item on the list. Same team, same plain answers.

Quoted

Monthly, cancel any time

Each step is quoted with a start date and an end date, and nothing begins until you have agreed to both.

So here is the whole risk: thirty minutes, and then $899. If the Map says there is nothing in your business worth doing yet, you stop there and $899 was the entire cost. You keep the plan either way.

Why do we not print the price of a build? Because a build that saves one person a day a week is a different number from one that replaces a system. Printing one number would either overcharge the small job or shortchange the big one. So we look at your business first, then write the number down. You will never be asked to agree to a price that is not already in writing.

We would rather tell you not to spend the money than sell you work that does not pay for itself.

  • Nothing here requires you to understand AI
  • It runs on the software you already pay for
  • You own the plan, the software, and the data
  • Nothing starts without a written price

If this is all new

You do not need to know anything about AI to start.

Most of the operators we talk to have never worked with a technology consultant, and a lot of them have been burned by software salespeople. That is the reason we work in this order: a free conversation, then one small fixed price, and then nothing else until we have put a number in writing and you have agreed to it. We will explain anything you ask, in plain words, as many times as you need.

  • No jargon. If we use a word you have not heard, ask and we will explain it.
  • If AI is not worth your money yet, we will say so.
  • We have run operations in this industry, not just advised on them.

Fit

Who this is for.

A good fit

  • Teams running the business on spreadsheets and manual handoffs
  • Operators whose software vendors will not build the one workflow that matters
  • Companies with data in several systems and no single view
  • Cannabis, hemp, and other regulated operators who understand their own business better than any vendor does

Not a fit

  • A team that wants a 60-page strategy deck and no software
  • Anyone who needs a licensed professional engineer to stamp the work, or a formal security certification we do not hold
  • A company whose process requires vendor certifications before a first conversation
  • Projects where the decision-maker will not be in the room

Why Rishi

Operators who build, not consultants who recommend.

Rishi has run real operations: 100+ field professionals across 3 states, $2M+ brand portfolios sustained, 1.6M+ field observations, 100+ brand partnerships. That instrumented-operations experience is what the software work is built on.

The person who scopes your build carries it: a co-founder who works as a professional product manager and builds with AI agents in production. Instrument everything, ship fast, let the data decide.

  • 1.6M+ field and operational observations behind every recommendation
  • 100+ brand partnerships and a team built from 0 → 100+ across 3 states
  • Software shipped inside a working operation, not a slide deck
  • You own the software, the data, and the reasoning

FAQ

Common questions.

What does an engagement cost?'The first conversation is free and takes thirty minutes. The AI Opportunity Map is $899 and takes one week, and it comes off the price of a build. The full assessment takes two weeks and your first build takes about six. All three are quoted per project, in writing, with a start date and an end date before any work begins. If the Map shows nothing worth doing, you stop there and $899 is the whole cost.'
Do you only work with cannabis companies?

Cannabis and hemp is where our depth is, and it is where we started. The same work applies to other regulated retail and distribution businesses. If we are not the right team for what you need, we will tell you in the first conversation.

Who actually does the work?

The co-founders scope the engagement and stay on it. AI agents do a large share of the building, under review gates we set and check. There is no account layer and no bench of juniors: the people you meet are the people responsible.

What do we own at the end?

The software, the data, and the documentation. There is no lock-in. Handover means repo access, a written system map, and the evaluation and review setup that keeps the agents honest, so any competent developer can pick the system up.
