Your business already runs on routines.We make AI one of them.
Haibit installs working AI into the way Charlotte businesses actually operate — the calls you miss, the quotes you retype, the follow-ups that never go out. Built by an operator who shipped AI to millions of people, not a consultant who read about it.

Most AI projects launch and quietly stop. We're judged on what's still working six months later.
Most AI projects launch and quietly stop. We're judged on what's still working six months later.
Nobody around here is losing to AI.
They're losing to the phone ringing out.
The businesses that win the next two years won't be the ones with the fanciest technology. They'll be the ones who closed the boring, expensive leaks first.
Each one is a job that went to whoever picked up. An AI receptionist answers at 9pm on a Saturday and books it.
You are not behind. But that 19% is pulling ahead, and the gap compounds every quarter.
Most die as a slide deck. We are judged on what's still running 90 days after we leave.
Internal builds finish about a third of the time. Partner-led, about two thirds. This is not a DIY problem.

Four steps. One outcome: AI that's still running after we leave.
Most AI engagements end with a roadmap. Ours end with software in production and a team that actually uses it.
Find the habit
Two weeks with your team, mapping where the hours actually leak and ranking every opportunity by dollars saved. You leave with one automation already running.
- Workflow + data readiness map
- Ranked opportunity list with ROI math
- One live automation shipped during the audit
Install it
Our engineers build it and wire it into the tools you already pay for. Fixed fee, milestone billing, no hourly meter.
- AI receptionists & voice agents
- Lead capture and instant follow-up
- Document, intake & quoting automation
Make it stick
Software doesn't change a business — behaviour does. We train the people who touch the workflow daily and set the rituals so it survives after we're gone.
- Role-specific hands-on training
- Written SOPs your team will actually open
- Adoption tracked, not assumed
Keep it sharp
AI systems drift. We monitor, tune, report on what it saved you, and ship something new every month.
- Monitoring + escalation handling
- Monthly savings report in plain English
- One new workflow per month
Talk to one of our AI receptionists right now.
Pick a business like yours, hit call, and speak to it the way a customer would. It answers, catches an emergency, and books the job.
No signup. Nothing is recorded. Takes a minute.
From coffee to compounding.
No 60-page strategy documents. No six-month discovery. You'll see something working inside two weeks.
Coffee, not a pitch deck
Twenty minutes, in person if you're in Charlotte. We ask what eats your week. If AI isn't the answer, we'll say so and you've lost twenty minutes.
The Habit Audit
Two weeks. We map the workflows, score your readiness, price the opportunities — and ship one working automation so you can feel it before you fund it.
Build and install
Our engineers build remotely, integrate with your existing tools, and train the people who'll use it. Fixed fee, milestone billing, weekly demos.
Make it a habit
We monitor, tune, and report what it actually saved. Then we ship the next one. This is where AI stops being a project and starts being how you operate.
Here are our prices.
Real numbers, published on purpose. Almost nobody in this market will show you a price before a sales call. We think that's a tell.

What's your AI Habit Score?
Eight questions, about 90 seconds. You'll get a 0–100 AI Habit Score, your biggest opportunity, and a rough dollar estimate of what it's worth — before you give us anything.
- A 0–100 readiness score — the same one we run on paying clients
- Your single biggest AI opportunity, named
- A rough annual dollar figure for what it's worth
“The score isn't a gimmick. It's the first page of the same assessment I charge $2,500 for — I'd rather you see where you stand before you decide whether to pay me.”
8 questions. About 90 seconds.
Answer honestly — the score is only useful if it's real. We don't ask for your email until after you see the result.
We go where the AI firms aren't.
Everyone else in this market is chasing banks. The best returns right now are in the industries Charlotte actually runs on — and almost nobody is serving them.
Trades & home services
Over 74% of inbound calls go unanswered in home services. That's the single most expensive leak in the business.
Construction & contracting
7,954 small construction firms in the Charlotte region — and construction is one of the lowest AI-adopting sectors in NC.
Dental & medical practices
Front desk is the bottleneck. Scheduling, insurance verification, and recall calls eat the day.
Law firms
75% of small firms use AI, but under a third saw revenue from it. Firms with 5+ integrated AI workflows grew 2× faster.
Accounting & financial services
Weekly AI-powered research among tax firms jumped from 33% to 60% in a single year. The laggards are getting priced out.
Logistics & distribution
Charlotte runs on freight. Transportation is a bottom-quartile AI adopter statewide — which is the opportunity.
I ran operations at an AI company before it was a category.
I'm Doug Sweatt. I was COO of StatMuse — an AI search engine millions of people used to ask sports questions in plain English, years before ChatGPT made that normal. It was backed by Disney, Google and Allen & Company.
So I know what it takes to run AI in production, at volume — and how much of what's being sold right now is a demo with good lighting.
Charlotte's small businesses are getting pitched AI by web shops that have never shipped it. I live here, I'll come to your office, and I have engineers who build fast.
If we don't think AI will pay for itself in your business inside twelve months, we'll tell you on the first call and point you at what will.
What we get judged on: how much of your week is still running on its own six months later.
The things people actually ask.
Sometimes no — and we'll tell you. The cut-off is whether you have a repetitive, high-volume workflow that costs real money: missed calls, manual quoting, slow follow-up. If you do, the math works at any size. If you don't, a $2,500 audit is the cheapest way to find that out.
Because hiding them wastes both our time. Almost every AI firm here makes you book a discovery call before they'll say a number. If our prices don't fit, you should know in ten seconds, not after three meetings.
Almost never. Most of what we build sits on top of the tools you already pay for — your CRM, phone system, scheduler, email, document storage. Ripping out working software is how AI projects die.
I run strategy, discovery and every client relationship personally. A small team of engineers builds. You'll never be handed to a junior consultant.
It's the number one blocker SMB leaders name, and it should be. We scope data handling before anything is built, use enterprise API tiers that don't train on your data, and can work inside HIPAA-sensitive environments with the right agreements.
That's why the audit ships a live automation instead of a PDF. You see something real working inside two weeks, for $2,500, before committing to a build.
Charlotte and the Carolinas get the in-person work — discovery, workshops, quarterly reviews. Everything else is remote, so we do work outside the region. But local gets our calendar.
Twenty minutes. Coffee's on me.
Tell us what eats your week. If AI is the answer, we'll show you exactly what we'd build and what it costs. If it isn't, we'll say that too.
