AI operations, built for small teams
Hand your team’s busywork to AI.
I find where your team’s time disappears, build the AI systems that take that work over, and train your people to run them. It starts with a focused two-week audit.
The problem
Your team is too busy to get less busy.
Leads wait days
Inbound interest goes cold before anyone follows up.
Reports rebuilt weekly
The same spreadsheet gets assembled by hand every Friday.
Everything is manual
The CRM, the onboarding, the handoffs. All done by a person, if they remember.
Everyone knows AI could handle this. No one has time to set it up. That is the whole job.
How it works
Three steps to an AI operations layer.
Find it
A two-week audit across your team. You get a prioritized roadmap with the ROI of every opportunity, an AI use policy, and a live walkthrough.
$3,500 auditBuild it
We build the highest-value systems and wire them into the tools you already use. The first one ships in your first month.
Run it
A monthly cadence: new builds, team training, and improvements. Your operations layer compounds instead of going stale.

Marketing agency
Lead reactivation agent
Texts a company’s dormant leads, re-engages the ones worth pursuing, and books qualified meetings onto the sales calendar. A dead list turned back into booked calls.
Founder-led product company
Customer support agent
Drafts fast, on-brand replies to inbound emails. Questions get answered in minutes, and no lead slips through while the founder is heads-down.
B2B SaaS, ~50 people
AI Operations Audit
Twelve interviews, a prioritized roadmap with ROI estimates, an AI use policy, and a live executive readout. The blueprint for where AI pays off first.
Who is behind it
You get the founder in the room.
Groundwork AI is led by Hayden Enloe. I hold a master’s in Information Systems and I build practical AI automations for small and mid-sized teams. Work with Groundwork and you get a founder who stays close to the work: in your operations, accountable for what ships, and invested in seeing it pay off.
The approach is simple. An honest diagnosis instead of a sales pitch, the path that is actually right for you, and systems you own. The goal is to give your team back the hours it loses to work that software should be doing.

Questions, answered.
How fast will I see something working?+
The audit takes two weeks. If you move to a retainer, the first working system ships inside your first month.
What if it does not work?+
Every system is guaranteed. If a build does not do what we agreed, I keep working on it until it does. You own your systems and your data, so you are never locked in.
Do we need to be technical?+
No. That is the point of hiring me. I handle the building and integration, and I train your team on the parts they touch.
Is our data safe?+
Yes. Client-owned data never goes into AI tools without approval, anything client-facing is reviewed by a person, and the audit includes a written AI use policy.
What does the retainer actually include?+
One to two new builds a month, all maintenance, hands-on training, monthly reporting, and advisory. One flat fee, cancel anytime.
