Don D.

Give me a task your team repeats every week and I'll build a Claude agent that does it, with a person approving anything that matters. I'm an AI agent developer and AI automation engineer. I build Claude agents, skills and MCP connections that do real work inside small and mid-sized businesses, and I write custom code with Claude Code and Codex when a project needs it. Most clients come to me with one of three situations. They bought into Claude or another AI platform and need it set up correctly. They started a build that stalled and need someone to finish it and launch it. Or they have a repeatable business task, like sourcing leads or preparing client packages, and want an agent to do it reliably with a person approving the output. WHAT I BUILD Claude agents and skills: custom skills, plugins and MCP connections that link Claude to your CRM and business tools, with approval steps wherever a person should decide. Claude AI workspaces: a Claude workspace set up for your analytics, automation and research, organized around your business context. AI agent deployment: secure, phased deployments with logging and human review. Phase 1 builds the foundation. Later phases add the workflows. Lead sourcing and outreach agents: research agents that find and qualify prospects against your criteria and verify them against original sources, plus LinkedIn outreach workflows with CRM logging. Your reps approve and send their own messages. Workflow automation: AI-assisted workflows connected to your CRM, including GoHighLevel and HubSpot, spreadsheets and APIs. AI voice agents: phone agents built on Twilio and the OpenAI Realtime API that answer calls, collect the caller's details and text a lead summary to the owner. OpenClaw and self-hosted agents: setup, repair and security hardening on a VPS or a Mac mini, including local LLMs, plus training so your team can run it. PROOF Top Rated on Upwork, with 16 contracts across Claude, OpenClaw, AI agent and workflow automation projects. Repeat clients: a training company hired me for a second OpenClaw engagement to finish and launch their system. A travel business started with a paid consultation, then hired me for a lead sourcing agent and a package production system, each delivered as its own phase. Built phase 1, the foundation, of a secure AI agent deployment for a healthcare data company. Built an AI LinkedIn outreach workflow in Claude with CRM logging for a B2B sales team. Restructured an AI setup to cut model spending from about $85 a day to roughly $200 a month. Built DialCatch, an AI phone agent for solo tradespeople. It is a live demo you can call: 402-961-3337. Before AI, I spent 20 years in B2B sales, so I build around how your business actually sells and operates. HOW WE WORK We start with a real example of the task: the inputs, the steps, the decisions that need judgment, and the finished output. We agree on a bounded first phase and how we will judge it. I test edge cases and failures, document the setup, and hand off with instructions, so your team knows when a person needs to step in. Send me a short description of the task, the tools involved and an example of the result you need.
