The San Diego AI Guy, Lucas Cooper-Bey

Who it is for

For San Diego business owners who want more customers and have the time or staff to serve them.

You have steady revenue, but missed calls, slow quotes or repetitive paperwork cost you business or time. You take part in the Sit-Down yourself.

Questions

Questions about working together.

How the services, pricing and support work.

Yes. 15 minutes, no charge. We discuss what is slowing your business down, whether you can serve more customers, and what to do next. The paid Profit Leak Sit-Down produces the written review and estimates what an improvement could be worth.

About a week, done with you. We create the Shop Book, a record of how your business runs; the Decision Log, our choices and reasons; and the Roadmap, a plan of what to build first. $1,500 flat. The deposit is $750 before work starts. The balance is billed on delivery. Also included: the Monday Card, your next-week action list; the Build Credit (100% of the $1,500 into Build One Thing if you start within 30 days), and a walkthrough until the plan makes sense. If I cannot determine a way to save or earn at least $15,000 over the next year, the $750 booking fee comes back, the second $750 is never billed, and we go our separate ways. The guarantee has four limits. It covers only the parts of the business we actually looked at. Finding the money is the Sit-Down; capturing it is Build One Thing. It does not apply if you will not share your baseline numbers. It does not apply if you are already turning work away, which we check on the free 15-minute call before any money moves. I do four a month.

Yes, in one case. The $750 booking fee pays for the week I spend in the business. If I start that week and cannot determine a way to save or earn at least $15,000 over the next 12 months, the $750 booking fee comes back, the second $750 is never billed, and we go our separate ways. The guarantee has four limits. It covers only the parts of the business we actually looked at. Finding the money is the Sit-Down; capturing it is Build One Thing. It does not apply if you will not share your baseline numbers. It does not apply if you are already turning work away, which we check on the free 15-minute call before any money moves.

I build one system for your business, live and in use, four to six weeks, from $5,000. With you or for you. Sit-Down fee credits 100% if you start within 30 days of the Sit-Down. Thirty days of support included, then an optional monthly care plan you can cancel anytime.

No. Some owners already paid for ChatGPT or another tool and have not seen it save time or improve earnings. Some have not started. The free call still works either way. We start from how the business runs, not from what software you already own.

No. The San Diego AI Guy is me, Lucas Cooper-Bey: one person you talk to, two paid products, a free 15-minute call. Automation Flow Professionals is the company on the contract and the invoice. San Diego AI Studio is a local community for learning, building with AI and sharing what you make. Its site has projects, learning resources and updates about gatherings.

I am based in La Mesa and work in person across San Diego County. Remote work is available beyond the county.

Every build includes 30 days of support after handoff. After that, an optional monthly care plan covers monitoring, fixes, and improvements, with no lock-in. If you take the build and never call again, that is fine. The documentation is written for the team who will use the system.

Claude (including Claude Code and the Agent SDK), OpenAI (GPT and Codex), xAI Grok, Google Gemini, Whisper, Next.js, React, TypeScript, Vercel, Cloudflare Pages and Workers, Neon Postgres, Qdrant, Stripe, Playwright, Remotion, Apify, and local models on hardware I own. Systems are built on this stack directly rather than assembled from no-code automation subscriptions.

My goal is to reduce repetitive work, such as phone tag and data entry, so your team can spend more time on customers. Decisions about staffing stay with you.
