The 30-Day AI Build for Mid-Market Operators

The 30-day AI build is Stage 2 of the FastStart AI program. After a free 48-hour Agentic Workflow Assessment identifies the manual process with the highest EBITDA drag, the build puts a functional AI agent or agentic workflow into production in 30 days or less, sized to fit the scenario. The deliverable is a working asset running inside your real business operations, not a prototype, a proof of concept, or a roadmap that never ships.

Most AI consulting engagements are built to extend themselves. Discovery turns into more discovery, pilots turn into platform licenses, and roadmaps turn into quarters of billable work before anything reaches production. The 30-day build inverts that model. It is scoped to a single, well-defined process, fixed in price, and measured by whether an agent is actually running and protecting margin at the end of the month. For mid-market CEOs and CFOs who need results, not roadmaps, that constraint is the point.

The build is led by practitioners who have been in the room when companies sell and know what moves the number. They work against the findings report from the assessment, integrate with the systems you already use, and hand off a production agent your team can operate. Common targets include quoting and contract review in revenue operations, variance analysis and month-end close in financial reporting, and support triage and onboarding in customer operations.

For PE-backed companies and operators building toward an exit, a 30-day production build does more than protect EBITDA. It produces evidence. A buyer wants to see agentic workflow readiness on the diligence checklist backed by something running, not something planned. FastStart AI helps mid-market operators in B2B technology, services, and manufacturing turn that readiness into a demonstrable strength before a raise or a sale, without the agency overhead that so often slows the work down.
