Map high-friction processes and automate the repeatable 80%.
We audit your current workflows — email, client onboarding, data entry, reporting — and identify which steps are mechanical enough to automate reliably. Then we build and test the automation before handing it off.
Process mapping and friction analysis
Cron-based scheduled automation
Human-in-the-loop approval flows for anything client-facing
Verification standards so you know when something fails
AI Agent Design
+
Build agent systems with guardrails, task routing, and verification.
Most agent failures are architecture failures — not model failures. We design agent systems that stay reliable in production: clear identity layers, explicit automation tiers, skill-based task routing, and artifact-based verification.
Identity and operating rules configuration
Tool access and permission scoping
Sub-agent coordination patterns
Memory architecture for persistent context
Implementation Sprints
+
Rapid pilot-to-production cycles with clear outcomes and ownership.
We move fast. A typical engagement takes one workflow from idea to verified production deployment in two to three weeks. You leave with a running system, documentation, and the knowledge to extend it.
Scoped to one workflow per sprint
Live testing against real inputs before handoff
SOPs and runbooks included
Follow-on sprints available for additional workflows
Operational Readiness
+
Documented SOPs, handoff playbooks, and scalable deployment patterns.
AI systems that aren't documented are systems only one person understands. We build the operational layer around every deployment — so your team can run, troubleshoot, and extend the system without us.
Standard operating procedures for every automated workflow
Failure runbooks — what to do when something breaks
Monitoring and alerting setup
Team onboarding for system handoff
Testimonials
What operators say after working with us.
"Working with Deacon at Ridley Research & Consulting has been a game-changer for my business. He set me up with AI automation that has completely transformed how I operate. For the first time, I feel like my entire business is truly organized. I'm catching issues I never even knew I had and acting on them nearly instantly. Everything is running smoother than ever, and I finally feel like I have a real edge over the competition. If you're looking for someone who can actually deliver results with AI, Deacon is the guy."
