Most AI advice is a sales pitch.

The person telling you what to automate usually gets paid to build it. I don’t take that work. For $399, a working CTO spends 30 minutes on a call with you, then tells you in writing what to fix first, what it costs and how to do it.

Jeremy Meyer. CTO of Dial. Before that: co-founder and CTO of Sleeker (acquired), Square, IOHK / Cardano.

See what $399 buys

Agencies earn money when you build and vendors earn it when you subscribe, so neither one is going to tell you the spreadsheet is fine.

Sometimes the spreadsheet is fine. Sometimes the fix for a lost week is a cheap tool you already half own. Nobody earns a commission for saying that, which is why you rarely hear it.

I’m taking three orders in this first round.

One call, then one document.

  1. Answer three questions

    What your business does, which repetitive work eats the most time, and what tools you use today. A few lines each is enough.

  2. Pay the fixed price and pick a time

    If I can help, I send a payment link for $399 and we find 30 minutes. If I can’t, I tell you before you pay anything.

  3. Talk to me for 30 minutes

    You get me on the call, not a sales rep. I ask how the work really gets done, and you can ask me anything, including how I’d approach it and what I’ve built. If the call doesn’t help, tell me and I’ll refund you.

  4. Get your document

    It arrives within 2 business days of the call. Read it, ask your one question, then hand it to your team or a builder and get on with it.

Your answer comes from a CTO who still ships.

More than a decade in production systems across fintech, Web3 and AI automation, and I still run engineering today. The tools I recommend are the kind I have to live with on Monday morning.

What you’re probably wondering

Why not just ask ChatGPT?
You should, and I use Claude to draft too. It will give you ten plausible options. You are paying me to decide which one survives contact with your business, and to put my name on that call.
Will you build it for me?
No, and that is what keeps the advice clean. The document is written so your team or any competent builder can pick it up, and it gives you something to check their quote against.
Is the call a sales pitch?
No. There is nothing else to buy. The 30 minutes are there so I understand your business and you can decide how much weight my answer deserves.
