Your Team's Best Hours Shouldn't Go to Admin Work
Proposals, RFIs, coordination, compliance— 5+ hours per person, per week. At your billing rates, that math gets expensive fast.

Available Services
AI Roadmapping
Find the Low-Hanging Fruit
Department-level AI opportunity mapping, tool evaluation, and a 90-day implementation plan your team will actually follow.
AI Training
Get Your Team on the Same Page
Executive workshops, team-wide AI training, and leadership alignment sessions. Your team needs to understand what AI means for their work— not just how to prompt.
AI Workflows
Wire AI Into Your Actual Tools
Custom AI integration into your existing tools and processes. Proposal automation, submittal coordination, compliance docs— the work AI should be doing.
AI Advisory
A Guide, Not a Vendor
Monthly strategy sessions, implementation support, and quarterly reviews. Someone who knows your systems and your team.
Where Your Time & Money Are Disappearing
Your team is spending hours on work AI could handle in minutes. Let's fix that.
AI Tool Sprawl
Your team signed up for six AI tools and none of them talk to each other. Scattered experiments, zero ROI.
Firms waste $30-50K/year on unused or overlapping AI subscriptions.
Leadership as Bottleneck
Every AI decision flows through the same 2-3 people. They're already maxed out. Your expertise is trapped in their heads instead of in systems your team can run.
A principal's hour at a $10M firm is worth $5,000 in strategic value.
No AI Strategy
32% of AEC firms have no AI strategy at all. Another 34% are still developing one. Meanwhile, 81% use AI for marketing— but only 36% apply it to project delivery, where the real margin lives.

Growing Pains Without New Hires
You need to scale capacity without scaling headcount. AI gives your existing team leverage to do more.
5+ hours per person, per week— just on coordination. Proposals, submittals, and compliance docs pile on top. (Dodge/Procore 2025, 1,500+ professionals)

Client Transformations
Clients routinely reclaim 15–20+ hours every week and turn multi-day projects into same-day wins. For a 20-person firm, that translates to $1.3M+ in recaptured annual capacity.
"I completed a complex data report in two hours—work that used to swallow up two full days."
Daniel Hatke
Ecomm Owner
For a 10-person team doing this weekly, that's $1.2M/year in recaptured capacity.
"Research that once took days now gets done in minutes, so I can focus on big-idea strategy."
Raj Lulla

"[Dan] has an ability to deliver fresh insights with stunning clarity... Dan's ability to communicate how to treat AI as a co-intelligence dramatically improved, particularly my document writing, later that day."
Nick Cox
Director of Software Engineering, Smartsheet
"I joined the cohort during one of the most intense sprints of my professional and personal life. And what I gained wasn't just better prompts (though those were game-changing); it was clarity, confidence, and the ability to move—fast, smart, and in service to the work I care so deeply about."
Maggie Strong
Nonprofit Consultant & AI Coach
"All I have to do is just sit there and hit record without actually having to think about what to say and it's all my voice because it's all coming from content that I have created."
ST Rappaport
ADHD Business Coach
"I'm telling Dan almost daily that this work is literally changing my life because of all the ways it has allowed me to be more efficient and more creative, and honestly, to do great work in less time."
