THE SOFTWARE ARM OF M3 // CUSTOM AI SOFTWARE · ANY BUSINESS, ANY INDUSTRY

Something in your
business is eating
hours every week.
We build the AI
that does it for you.

Quoting. Paperwork. Bookings. Chasing clients. Answering the same question two hundred times. Whatever that job is in your business, we build software that does it for you — made for the way you work, not bought off a shelf.

Tell us about it on one 30-minute call. We send back exactly what we'd build and exactly what it costs, within 48 hours. Say yes and it's running in 14 days — and it belongs to you, outright. No subscription, no lock-in, no catch.

01

One 30-min call

You describe the job. No tech knowledge needed.

02

48 hours

We send the plan and the exact price. Free either way.

03

14 days

Built, tested and running in your business.

04

It's yours

You own it outright. No subscription, ever.

// Why we're doing this

We didn't set out to sell AI. We built it for ourselves first —
then realised it wasn't an ecommerce thing at all.

We got into this early, and not as a product. We were running growth for ecommerce brands, kept hitting jobs the software couldn't do, and started building our own tools to get through the week.

Then we watched what those tools actually did. Work that took a person days took an afternoon. Decisions that waited on someone's report got made on the spot. The businesses we built for didn't just get faster — they became capable of things they couldn't do before.

And at some point the obvious landed: none of this was about ecommerce. A law firm buried in contracts, a clinic drowning in intake forms, a transport operator reconciling dockets by hand — same problem, same fix, same size of win. We'd just been pointing it at one industry.

So we widened the door. Same team, same method, any industry. Because the businesses that get this right over the next few years won't just run leaner — they'll be playing a different game to the ones that don't. We'd rather build you the thing than watch you rent someone else's.

// Who you'll be talking to
"There's no account manager and no handoff. You deal directly with the two of us, start to finish — and at the end of it, you own it outright."

Backed by a diverse team across Australia, the Philippines and South America.

We build on and connect to the systems you already run. If it has an API, we can plug into it — and if it doesn't, we'll find another way in.

01 / The Reality

The game has changed.
The retainer model is
broken.

We've gone from the glory days of ecommerce in 2020 to the gritty reality of 2025/26.

An $8K agency retainer on an $80K-per-month brand is your entire profit margin at 10%. You're paying for activity, not outcomes.

We only win when you win.
✕Fat retainers with no responsibility to actually perform
✕Agencies that treat your brand like account #47
✕Acquisition that stalls the moment spend scales
✕Retention left as an afterthought, leaking LTV
✕Creative testing with no system behind it
✕Reporting you can't trust and never see
✕No real strategy — just channel button-pushing
01 / The Problem

Everyone says
"use AI".
Nobody tells you what it costs.

You already know the job AI should be doing in your business.

But your two options are a generic subscription that almost fits and never quite does the thing — or a dev shop that wants a discovery phase, six months and a number nobody will put in writing.

So it stays on the list. Another quarter goes by.
✕Off-the-shelf AI tools that don't know your business, your data or your rules
✕Monthly subscriptions and per-seat fees for software you'll never own
✕Quotes that arrive as "from $X" with a six-month timeline attached
✕Paid discovery phases that produce a deck instead of software
✕Staff doing the same repetitive task hundreds of times a week
✕Hours lost to copying data between systems that should just talk
✕No idea whether your idea is a $5k build or a $50k one

grow your business.

02 / What We Build

Custom AI, built
around your business.

Below are the shapes most builds take — not a menu, and not a limit. Every project is bespoke. If you can describe the job in plain English, we can scope it, price it and build it.

// 001

AI Agents & Assistants

Trained on your documents, your policies, your tone and your way of doing things. Handles the repetitive thinking your team currently does by hand.

Agents · LLM
// 002

Internal Tools & Dashboards

The tool your team keeps asking for and nobody has built. Your data in one place, live, queryable, and shaped to how you actually make decisions.

Internal · BI
// 003

Workflow Automation

The handoffs, approvals, reminders and data entry that eat your week. Mapped once, automated properly, and connected to the systems you already use.

Ops · Automation
// 004

Document & Data Processing

Invoices, contracts, forms, applications, reports. Read, extracted, checked and filed — at a speed and consistency a person can't match.

Documents · AI
// 005

Customer-Facing Systems

Booking, intake, quoting, onboarding and support. Built to your process, on your brand, handling the volume that currently lands in an inbox.

Customer · Portal
// 006

Client & Staff Portals

A proper logged-in space for the people you work with. Status, documents, requests, updates — instead of chasing it all over email and phone.

Portals · Web
// 007

System Integrations

If it has an API, we connect it. Your CRM, your accounting, your scheduling, your spreadsheets — talking to each other instead of to a human in the middle.

Integrations · API
// 008

Analysis & Decision Copilots

Ask a question in plain English, get a real answer from your own numbers. No analyst bottleneck, no waiting until Monday for the report.

Data · LLM

Something else entirely? Describe it on the call. If it's buildable, you'll have a plan and a price within 48 hours.

03 / The Right Fit

We do what we do best.
You do what you do best.

JV partnerships only work when lanes are clear. No cross-swords. No too-many-chefs. We get inside growth — paid, creative, retention, data — and stay there. You stay where you're irreplaceable: the product, the brand, the gut calls only a founder can make.

✓ Right fit
  • You're an ambitious ecommerce founder, in it for the long game.
  • Real product, real demand, real revenue — not a pre-revenue idea.
  • You want a partner with skin in the game, not a vendor on a retainer.
  • You value execution and shipping over agency theatre and decks.
  • You'll let us own growth and trust the lane — no second-guessing every ad.
✕ Wrong fit
  • You want a hired gun to "test growth" for three months.
  • Pre-revenue or hunting for a magic-bullet quick win.
  • You want to micro-manage tactics and review every ad copy line.
  • You shop on hourly rate and treat agencies as interchangeable.
  • Too many chefs already — multiple agencies running paid, all crossing swords.
03 / Who It's For

Any business with a job
worth doing properly —
in any industry.

Trades, clinics, logistics, law, hospitality, agencies, retail, property, manufacturing. We don't need to know your industry. You do — and one call is enough to hand it over.

001 ▸

There's a job eating your team's hours

Something repetitive, manual and expensive happens every week. You know exactly what it is. It's never been worth a person's full-time salary to fix.

002 ▸

You've been quoted, and it scared you

Someone wanted six figures and six months. You parked it. The job is still costing you every week it stays parked.

003 ▸

Off-the-shelf nearly works — but doesn't

You've trialled the tools. They do 70% of it, the wrong way, and charge you per seat forever for the privilege.

004 ▸

You want to own the thing you pay for

You'd rather buy an asset once than rent a dependency forever. Your software, your data, your call on what happens to it.

005 ▸

You want a real number, not a range

Before you commit a dollar to building, you want to see the plan and the exact price. That's the whole point of how we work.

04 / How It Works

Plug in. Find the gaps.
Deploy the system.

No audit deck. No kickoff workshop. We integrate as partners, get inside the business and run the systems that move it — not the ones that look good in a slide.

01

Plug in

We embed as your bolt-on growth team. Slack-native, in-the-room, no agency theatre. YOUR brand treated like OUR brand from day one.

02

Find the gaps

We get inside your numbers, funnel and stack. Surface the things actually costing you — not the ones a dashboard tells you to chase.

03

Deploy

Acquisition, retention, creative, paid — we run the systems and push them. Results in weeks, not next quarter's report.

04 / How It Works

One call in.
A finished system out.

No discovery phase. No consulting deck. No hourly billing. A call on Monday, your plan and price by Wednesday, your system live a fortnight later. Four steps, start to finish.

01

You talk, we listen

A 30-minute call where you describe the problem in your own words. No tech knowledge needed — you know your business, that's the only expertise required. The call is recorded, with your permission.

02

You get The Build Plan

Our own AI turns that recording into a proper scope: what gets built, what it connects to, what it will do, and the timeline. With one fixed price at the bottom. In your inbox within 48 hours — free, and yours to keep either way.

03

We build it in 14 days

You approve the plan and we start. Two weeks to a working system, with check-ins along the way so you see it taking shape. Fixed price, fixed scope — the number you approved is the number you pay.

04

We hand you the keys

Source code, documentation, accounts and keys in your name, and a walkthrough for your team. Thirty days of support included. From there it's yours to run, change, extend or sell — with or without us.

05 / Success Stories

the brands we back.

05 / What This Looks Like

Pick your world.
See what we’d build.

Ideas, not case studies — a sense of what custom AI actually looks like in a business like yours. Yours will be different, because it will be built around the job that is actually costing you.

TRA/01

Quote & Job Intake Agent

Takes enquiries from the phone, texts and the website, asks the qualifying questions, prices standard jobs off your rate card and books them into the diary.

IntakeQuoting
TRA/02

Job Pack Generator

Turns a booked job into a pack for the van — site details, materials, access notes and compliance forms — on the phone before they leave the yard.

OpsMobile
TRA/03

Invoice & Follow-Up Chaser

Raises the invoice the moment a job is marked done, then politely chases the ones that go quiet until they are paid.

BillingXero

Not on this list? That’s most businesses. Describe the job on the call and we’ll tell you within 48 hours exactly what it would take.

06 / What It Costs

One fixed price.
Then it's yours.

No hourly rates, no retainers, no per-seat licence. You see the full number before a single line of code is written, and you own what we build at the end of it. Built and run on elite security standards from day one.

01

The Build Plan is free

The call, the scope and the fixed quote cost you nothing. If the number doesn't work or you'd rather build it elsewhere, keep the plan and walk. No obligation, no pressure.

02

One price for the build

Fixed, agreed up front, usually split across milestones. Fourteen days from approval to delivery, and scope creep is on us, not you. At handover it's your software and your IP — not licensed, not locked, not held hostage.

03

Ongoing is optional

Thirty days of support included. After that, hosting, AI running costs, monitoring and improvements are a monthly if you want them. Cancel anytime — you keep everything.

06 / Why M3 Growth

We don't do retainers
with no skin in the game.
We do partnerships
with real upside.

We're a competitive, collaborative, gritty and dedicated DTC agency that will drive your brand forward.

The bolt-on extension of growth strategists you always wished you had.
→ JV Performance

No $10K retainers with no responsibility to perform. A powerful, experienced, market-leading team that has skin in the game.

→ JV Equity

An $8K retainer on an $80K/month brand is your entire profit margin. Our model aligns incentives — you win, we win.

→ Operator-Led

$250M+ generated across Meta, Google and Klaviyo. We've lived the operational pain behind every growth lever.

→ Truly Integrated

Slack-native, in-the-room, relentless. We build infrastructure, relationships and partnerships — and treat YOUR brand like OUR brand.

07 / Why M3 AI

Most agencies sell you
a discovery phase.
We just give you
the plan and the price.

We come from M3 Growth — building and scaling businesses, not selling consulting hours.

That's why the first thing you get from us is a number, not a proposal deck.
→ 48 Hours To Quote, 14 Days To Build

One call is all we need. Plan and fixed price back within two days — free, whether you go ahead or not — and a working system two weeks after you say yes.

→ Operator-Built

Built by people who've run real businesses, not career consultants. We're looking for what the job actually costs you — then whether software is genuinely the answer.

→ Industry-Agnostic

You bring the domain knowledge, we bring the build. We've shipped across ecommerce, services, trades and operations — the method doesn't change with the industry.

→ Fixed Price, Fixed Scope

The number you approve is the number you pay. No hourly creep, no change-order games, no open-ended engagement that quietly becomes a retainer.

→ Yours To Own

Source code, documentation, accounts and keys in your name at handover. Not licensed, not subscription-locked, not held hostage by a vendor. Including us.

→ Secure by Default

Encrypted in transit and at rest, least-privilege access, isolated environments. Your data stays yours — never sold, never shared, never used to train public models.
