Services

Production-tested network automation across discovery, configuration, provisioning, monitoring, and AI. Most of what is listed here runs in production today, and anything newer says so on its card. Engagements are fixed-scope projects or retainers, scoped together on a discovery call.

RCPT

AI Receptionist

An AI receptionist for appointment businesses. It answers every call and books straight into the calendar you already use.

  • > Answers every call, 24/7, no voicemail
  • > Books in real time against the calendar you already run
  • > Texts the confirmation and runs the follow ups
  • > A natural voice you pick to fit your brand
  • > One flat monthly bill, your number ports out if you leave

Examples: Live AI receptionist answering calls and booking real appointments, calendar and confirmation-text integrations

COS

AI Chief of Staff

Managed monthly

A dedicated AI you text, configured on your business and fully managed by us, running your inbox and back office.

  • > A dedicated AI assistant configured on your business
  • > Drafts replies and chases the follow ups, you approve first
  • > Connects to your calendar, email, and other tools
  • > Voice calling on the way
  • > Hosted, monitored, and tuned, one flat monthly bill

Examples: A managed AI chief of staff running an inbox in production, calendar, email, and messaging integrations

CRM

Brody CRM

Early access, in active development

A CRM for small service businesses that does its own busywork. It is early and in active development, and we are building it now with founding customers.

  • > Calls, emails, and texts become contacts and follow ups
  • > Every next step drafted for a person to approve
  • > A small, legible core aimed at a service business, not an enterprise
  • > Import your spreadsheet in, export everything out anytime
  • > One flat price for the whole team, not per seat

Examples: An auto-filling CRM in active development with founding customers, built on the same production platform as the receptionist and the assistant

SIGN

Custom Digital Signage

Built, running on our bench

A live board for a TV in your shop, made to order: a tap list, a menu, a price board or specials. You change it from your phone and the TV updates by itself.

  • > Runs on an ordinary TV with a low-cost streaming stick in kiosk mode
  • > You edit from a phone page at the counter, the TV updates within seconds
  • > Photograph a bottle label and in about 20 seconds the wine details fill in for you to check
  • > Keeps showing the last good board if the internet drops
  • > Tap wall: $250 to set up, $50 a month. Other boards quoted

Examples: A 16-tap wall board for a self-pour wine bar, built and running on our own bench with a Fire TV Stick in kiosk mode

MONEY

Sawbucks

Coming soon

Personal finance, and your LLC, in one local app. Your data stays on your own computer. Not released yet.

NET

Network Discovery & Documentation

Turn a live network into accurate documentation, automatically.

  • > Agentless crawl of live devices via CDP/LLDP/SNMP/SSH
  • > Auto-generated draw.io topology diagrams (L1/L2/L3, VRF, HSRP pairs)
  • > As-built inventory and a portable HTML report
  • > Snapshot-over-snapshot change journaling
  • > Works from captures, safe against locked-down environments

Examples: Automated draw.io topology generator, agentless fleet crawler, enterprise diagnostic dashboard (ping/traceroute/SNMP/CDP at 500+ targets)

CFG

Configuration, Migration & Provisioning

Generate, migrate, and push configuration at fleet scale, with guardrails.

  • > Templated IOS-XE / NX-OS config generation (Jinja2, IPAM-aware)
  • > Bidirectional IOS↔NX-OS translation for platform migrations
  • > Zero-touch provisioning: factory-reset to fully-configured in minutes
  • > Staged bulk push with pre/post validation and rollback
  • > Per-site/per-client template isolation

Examples: Zero Touch Provisioning stack (Catalyst 9200/9300/9500), modular IOS-XE config generator, IOS→NX-OS translator at ciscotools.dev

IPAM

IPAM & Source-of-Truth

IP records the team will actually trust, continuously reconciled to reality.

  • > Per-site IPAM workbooks with utilization and conflict detection
  • > Intent-vs-reality validation against live ARP / DHCP / device captures
  • > NetBox integration as canonical source of truth
  • > Stale-lease detection and reclaim
  • > Runs capture-driven, with no live access to secured networks

Examples: IPAM-at-scale source-of-truth validation, NetBox MCP integration (open source), Google Sheets IPAM dashboards

MON

Validation & Monitoring

Catch drift, route anomalies, and outages before they find you.

  • > Peer-consensus config drift detection with remediation tracking
  • > BGP / routing audits (VRF-aware, site-vs-peer comparison)
  • > ACL / SSH / compliance auditing with auto-remediation
  • > Cloud-managed (Meraki) cellular + AutoVPN health reporting
  • > Uptime, SSL, and multi-site health dashboards with email/SMS alerts

Examples: Multi-site config drift tracker, BGP routing audit, Meraki OOB cellular + AutoVPN reports, self-hosted uptime monitor

AI

AI Automation & MCP Integrations

The AI layer that runs the network ops: agents, pipelines, and structured AI access to your infrastructure.

  • > Autonomous agents that monitor systems, run audits, and report
  • > Natural-language ops over SMS, chat, and voice
  • > AI chief-of-staff for execs: email, calendar, call notes, and voice-matched follow-up drafting (live client pilot)
  • > Dedicated 24/7 AI assistants your team can text. See the AI Chief of Staff page
  • > MCP servers giving AI read-only access to NetBox and other infra
  • > LLM pipelines for reporting and decision support
  • > Human-in-the-loop controls and configurable autonomy

Examples: Autonomous orchestrator running 25+ projects, AI chief-of-staff pilot for a CPG founder, NetBox MCP integration, embedded Cisco AI networking assistant

OPS

Internal Tools, CRM & Dashboards

The CRM, tracker, or ops dashboard your team actually needs, replacing spreadsheet sprawl and the SaaS you’ve outgrown.

  • > Multi-tenant internal platforms with role-based access and row-level security
  • > Companion mobile apps (iOS/TestFlight) and installable PWAs for field teams
  • > Remediation trackers and ops dashboards fed by live operational data
  • > Google Workspace dashboards (Sheets + Apps Script) where that’s the right fit
  • > Self-hosted or cloud, deployed and documented

Examples: Multi-tenant CRM + field-team iOS app for a specialty-foods CPG, network remediation tracker dashboard, self-hosted uptime monitor

RCA

Troubleshooting & Root-Cause Analysis

When the network does something nobody can explain: evidence-driven root cause, written up for both engineers and leadership.

  • > Control-plane and packet-level analysis (BGP, OSPF, VRF/MPLS, asymmetric paths)
  • > Cross-team issues: firewall, transit/carrier, DNS, geolocation edge cases
  • > Executive-readable incident writeups alongside the technical evidence
  • > Repeatable runbooks so the same issue never needs re-diagnosis
  • > Vendor/TAC escalation support with evidence packages that move tickets

Examples: Cross-region file-transfer RCA across carrier and cloud transit, VRF blackhole diagnostic runbook, multi-site outage analysis
