Work Less. Grow Faster.

AI consulting for small business means having a real partner step in to help you stop being the bottleneck. We look at how you work today, identify where AI can take the load off, and build real automations that save you time, boost productivity, and free up your team to focus on what actually matters.

Because doing everything manually just doesn’t scale. AI gives small businesses the ability to compete like the big guys—automating follow-up, eliminating busywork, and giving you faster insight to make better calls. Without it, you’re burning time, missing leads, and falling behind. We help you flip that script.

Smart business owners use AI to:
– Automate repetitive tasks
– Respond to leads faster
– Streamline follow-up
– Get clarity on what’s working and what’s not
– Stop putting out fires and start building something that runs without them

At Hotlist AI, we don’t just consult—we build. We dive into your business, figure out what’s slowing you down, and design done-for-you AI automations that make it easier to scale. From strategy to integration to long-term support, we’re your AI Chief of Staff.

You get your time back. You get clarity. You stop wasting energy on tools that don’t work together. A good consultant (like us) doesn’t just throw buzzwords at you—we show you exactly where AI fits your business and build it for you. That means faster wins, fewer mistakes, and less trial-and-error guesswork.

With Hotlist AI, it’s simple:
1. Free audit call or Loom walkthrough
2. We map out where automations will have the biggest impact
3. We build and launch your first automations within 7–14 days
4. We keep supporting and optimizing as you grow

It depends on where you're at and what you need. Our starter package begins at $1,950. Full systems like our Growth Autopilot run $7,500 setup + $2,500/mo, and include everything from chatbot builds to branded follow-up flows. Every offer is tied to clear outcomes and serious ROI.

Most of our clients see results fast—like 1,200%+ ROI fast. That could mean hundreds of hours saved, leads captured that used to slip through the cracks, or staff finally freed up to focus on growth instead of grunt work. We track it all and make sure you’re not just getting automation—you’re getting momentum.

Sometimes, in days. Most of our clients start seeing efficiency gains within 2–4 weeks. We design for quick wins first—things that save you time immediately—and then scale from there.

Yes. We build AI tools that take action—not just chatbots that spit out answers. From custom GPTs that respond to leads in real time, to AI agents that update your CRM or follow up after a form submission—we’re building hands-on, task-completing tools that plug straight into your stack. Fully autonomous agents? That’s coming—but we build what works now.

We’re not software pushers. We’re builders. We’ve helped real estate teams, med spas, agencies, and home service pros get out of overwhelm and into flow. If you value time, want clean systems, and are ready to stop duct-taping software together—this is what we do. No jargon, no upsell circus. Just real results, done right.

We’re founder-led and based in Dallas, TX—but we work with clients across the U.S. and globally. Whether you’re a med spa in Miami or a roofing company in San Diego, we deliver remotely with white-glove onboarding and fast turnarounds. If you’re a service-based business ready to scale, we’ve probably built a system like yours already.
