The studio monolith, captured from our own three-dimensional render

Software that runs the part of your
business you are
tired of running.

We build the tools, websites and automations
a growing business needs, and hand them over to you.

Since late 2023 I have spent more than $50,000 of my own money testing AI, so you do not have to. Exact rules run in tested code, AI only drafts, and you keep everything we build.

What we can build for you

Most businesses do not need more software. They need the right piece, built around how they already work.

  1. Software that does the repetitive work.

    From CAD 500

    Customer intake, scheduling, quoting, the spreadsheet everyone is afraid to touch. Built around the way your business already runs.

  2. A website that brings in customers.

    From CAD 750

    Clear, fast and easy to buy from, with enquiries that land where you will see them.

  3. A brand that looks like you mean it.

    From CAD 450

    A name, a look and a message you can use everywhere without thinking about it.

  4. Content that keeps you visible.

    From CAD 350 a month

    Campaigns, posts and short videos, made with our content studio, Million Dollar Studio.

  5. A clear answer before you spend.

    From CAD 300

    A working session that turns "should we build this?" into a decision and a plan.

  6. See every service and price

Prices in Canadian dollars, before tax. Nothing to pay when you enquire. Every project starts with an agreed scope, and the invoice follows that agreement.

Founder field note · Shrish Manglik

Why I spent $50,000 of my own money on AI

A founder account of experiments with models, tools, and an external cognitive harness.

Rule steps run in plain software at near-zero cost per use: customer intake forms, price calculators, database writes, and automated browser checks. Language models handle bounded creative drafting and code review, while every high-judgment decision stays with the owner.

The AGI Studio built our entire web presence end to end - a fast, polished, fully bilingual (English + Hindi) site that handles our industry’s regulatory nuance with real care, plus an inquiry-and-distributor pipeline that lands straight in our inbox. On spec, on brand, and genuinely professional.

We build our own products the same way we build yours, so we use what we sell.

How a project goes

  1. A sample map: taking on new clients
    Software does it
    Collect the details you always need
    Check the details, then enter them once
    A person decides
    Approve the sensitive exceptions

    We map your workflow together.

    You show us what hurts. We show you what software can take over, and what should stay with your people.

  2. A screen from Prep AI Studio, one of our products

    We build, and you watch it take shape.

    We build what the agreement names, and anything extra is agreed before it is added.

  3. What you get
    • The source named in your agreement
    • The access named in your agreement
    • A guide to running it

    We hand it over.

    You get the source and the access named in your agreement, with a guide to running it, and we can keep it running for you if you want.

It starts with a map of one workflow, built from your answers to a short questionnaire. No contact details needed, and the map is yours to keep.

Map my workflow
  1. You tell us the job
  2. We build it
  3. We test it
  4. We check it
  5. You get it, tested

If a check fails, it goes back.

Why a small studio can deliver like a big one

We are building our own system, The Last Product, to take on much of the writing, testing and checking of our work. For you that means one person who knows your project from start to finish, a price agreed in writing before work begins, and nothing handed over until it has been checked.

Founder field note

What $50,000 of my own money taught me about building software for small businesses

Read the full essay →

“Left alone, a model will cheerfully invent a number just to finish a sentence.”

How most people use AI today

Pasting customer emails and spreadsheets into a chat box by hand, hoping the model remembers your pricing rules and formatting.

How we build it for you

Wrapping every repeatable task in a structured intake screen, fixed rules, and an automated check before you ever read the draft.
