We build your AI automations.
Then we run them, 24/7.
From process mapping to deployment to monitoring — co-managed alongside your IT team or MSP partner. One-time build from $3K. Monthly operations from $500. No per-seat licenses, no surprise consulting bills.
From process capture to live deployment — in days, not months.
Three steps. We do most of the work. You stay in control.
Capture & map your process
Start with a Process Blueprint. We document every system, decision point, and edge case, then turn it into a process flowchart and draft SKILL.md your team can review.
Managed AI Harness design
Our engineers build the tools, permissions, memory, retries, and approval gates that let AI operate inside your workflow without your team babysitting it.
Deploy & monitor with Mission Control
We deploy on your hardware or in the cloud, then co-manage it 24/7. The Mission Control Backplane gives your team real-time dashboards, approval gates, and direct access to our engineers.
Features & Capabilities
Everything you need to put AI to work — reliably.
Five pillars under the hood. Every ThunderStaff deployment ships with all of them.
Multi-system integration
Email inboxes, PDFs (with OCR), Google Drive and SharePoint, ERP and line-of-business apps (Sage 50, custom systems), vendor web portals, fat and thin clients. If your team uses it, we can read it, parse it, and act on it.
No migration required. The harness reads your existing systems through the same interfaces your team already uses — whether that's an API, a desktop app, or a web portal.
Managed AI Harnesses for real business operations.
ThunderStaff does not hand you a chatbot and hope your team can wire it into the business. We build the operating layer around the model: tools, permissions, memory, approvals, monitoring, and remediation.
The result is a managed harness that can read your systems, take approved actions, route exceptions to people, and keep running as vendors, models, and workflows change.
Tools & access
Connects to inboxes, files, portals, ERPs, APIs, and internal systems.
State & memory
Carries context across long-running work instead of starting over every step.
Controls & approvals
Keeps sensitive actions behind policy, role, budget, and human review gates.
Monitoring & fixes
Tracks every run, catches failures, and routes remediation back to ThunderStaff.
Compliance-ready, wherever it needs to live.
Run the harness on your hardware, in your cloud, or in ours. Whichever deployment you pick, we harden it the same way — and we're explicit about which data goes where.
Co-managed automation — your IT keeps the keys.
The harness runs alongside your team — not instead of them. Internal IT keeps governance. MSP partners co-deliver. We handle the AI engineering, monitoring, and updates so the people you already trust stay in control of the systems they already own.
Mission Control Backplane — full visibility, when you want it
Real-time dashboards, job queues, structured logs, approval gates. Your team supervises automations and signs off on edge cases — and collaborates with our engineers inside the same tool. No black boxes.
Live dashboards
Throughput, success rate, time saved — per process.
Approval gates
Sign off on edge cases without leaving Slack or email.
Structured logs
Every step, every tool call, every decision — auditable.
Illustrative — a representative slice of the live backplane.
Start with a free Process Blueprint.
For managers and CEOs ready to deploy a fully managed AI Harness, we start by mapping one valuable workflow and turning it into a clear implementation plan.
Process Blueprint
We identify the first workflow worth automating, confirm the systems involved, estimate the business case, and quote the harness we will build and manage.
Pick one costly, repetitive operational workflow.
We map the systems, approvals, edge cases, and handoffs.
You get a fixed build plan and Managed Services quote.
After the Blueprint
You choose whether to move forward. Build and Managed Services pricing is quoted from the real workflow instead of a generic package.
We build it. We run it. We fix it.
Every engagement is covered by Managed Services. If the automation breaks, we fix it. Your team gets the outcome without owning prompts, brittle scripts, model changes, or integration drift.
Built for businesses that need real reliability, not AI hype.
Four reasons SMBs, internal IT teams, and MSP partners pick us over off-the-shelf RPA and DIY AI experiments.
Harness expertise, not AI hype
The harness — not the model — is what determines whether production AI works. We've built our practice around the layer everyone else skips.
Proven methodology
Most automation projects fail on design, not technology. Our capture → engineer → deploy pipeline catches the failure modes before code ships.
Co-managed and secure
Designed for businesses with existing IT teams or MSP partners. Compliance-ready: RBAC, audit logs, encrypted secrets, on-premise option.
Flexible deployment
Cloud-hosted for fast starts. On-premise for sensitive data. Behind your firewall when you need it. Your choice of model — OpenAI, Anthropic, or self-hosted.
Start with a free
Process Blueprint.
We map one operational workflow, deliver a process flowchart, and draft the initial SKILL.md your managed AI Harness will run from. It's free, with no obligation to move forward.
Blueprint outputs: process flowchart, draft SKILL.md, and fixed implementation quote.
