How We Operate 6 Ventures With a 5-Person Core Team

Build a Lead Qualification AI Workflow in 30 Minutes

Most AI tutorials teach you to call an API and display a response. That works in a demo. It breaks on the first day of real traffic — bad input, runaway costs, wrong classifications sent to the wrong people. This training is different. We run AI workflows in production across six ventures: document processing, content pipelines, lead qualification, price monitoring. In this step-by-step walkthrough, you build the same lead qualification pipeline we use to process partner inquiries — a 4-stage system with schema validation, single-purpose AI classification, confidence-based routing, and cost controls. Under $2/month for 40 daily inquiries. Every pattern comes from production. Every dollar figure is real. Every mistake we warn you about is one we made first.
