AI Operations & Systems Integration

AI That Gets
Work Done

We help businesses get more done by putting AI to work inside the systems they already use — so your team spends less time on repetitive work and more time on the work that needs them.

We don't sell you another AI tool. We build AI into the systems you already run your business on.

00In plain terms

We come into your business, learn how the work actually gets done, find where AI can create useful capacity, build it into the systems you already use, train your team, and stay responsible for keeping it working.

We build and integrate the system ourselves. It is not a strategy deck, and it is not another subscription handed to your team to figure out.

0AWhat this means for the business

More gets done
without adding more work.

Before any of the architecture matters, here is what this is actually for. These are the kinds of changes we look for in a business — the reasons the work is worth doing at all.

  • 01

    Give people time back

    Repetitive retrieval, preparation, routing, follow-up, reporting, and administrative work gets handled, so your team spends more of the day on judgment and the work only they can do.

  • 02

    Get more from the team you already have

    Create capacity before assuming every constraint means another hire. The goal is a team that can take on more, not a smaller one.

  • 03

    Keep work moving after hours

    Defined workflows keep monitoring, preparing, routing, and — where you have approved it — responding, even when the office is closed. Anything with real consequences still waits for a person.

  • 04

    Make decisions with more context

    Information that currently sits in separate systems arrives in one place, so people see the consequences of a decision earlier instead of after the fact.

  • 05

    Respond faster

    Less waiting between an inquiry, the analysis, the handoff, the approval, the follow-up, and the thing actually getting done.

  • 06

    Protect margin

    Inventory, cost, purchasing, service, and workflow problems surface earlier, and avoidable administrative waste comes out of the day.

  • 07

    Build capacity that compounds

    Once your systems, permissions, and context are connected, the next capability is built on a foundation that already exists rather than started from nothing.

  • Note

    We do not promise headcount reductions or a fixed return before we understand your operation. What we look for is capacity: more work getting done, with better information behind it.

01The Problem / The Approach

Most companies bought AI.
Few of them gained capacity.

The hard part isn't access to AI. It's connecting that capability to the way work actually moves through a business. Big Timber closes that gap by getting inside the operation and building the system.

Where it breaks

  • 01

    Tools, not capacity

    Another subscription arrives. The work it was supposed to absorb stays with your team.

  • 02

    Advice that stops at the deck

    A roadmap is delivered, nobody implements it, and the operation runs exactly as before.

  • 03

    Automations that don't speak

    Nine disconnected scripts, each solving a fragment, none aware of what the others changed.

  • 04

    No one owns it

    An API changes, a workflow silently fails, and the capability quietly decays.

What we do instead

  • A

    We learn the operation first

    Economics, workflows, handoffs, bottlenecks, and the informal work nobody documented.

  • B

    We connect what you already run

    Your ERP, CRM, storefront, marketplaces, finance, and messaging become one environment.

  • C

    We build and we train

    Workflows and agents ship into production, and your people are taught to work with them.

  • D

    We stay responsible for it

    Monitoring, governance, maintenance, training, and expansion keep the environment useful as the business and technology change.

02Integration Surface

Your systems stop being
separate software.

Each system your company runs holds one part of the truth. We wire them into a single operating environment where a change in one is understood everywhere it matters.

Integration is not a logo wall. It is permissions, data contracts, error handling, and accountability — the unglamorous infrastructure that makes an AI recommendation trustworthy enough to act on.

03AI Across the Business

Where capacity
can be built.

AI can create useful capacity across nearly every part of a business. The opportunity is not to automate everything — it is to identify where connected systems can remove work, improve decisions, and keep the operation moving.

Explore Capabilities →

Know the state of the business without assembling it by hand.

  • Daily operating briefing assembled from every system
  • Anomaly detection across revenue, margin, and spend
  • Plain-language answers over governed warehouse data
  • Board and investor reporting prepared for review

Capabilities change shape by industry. The same work looks different in ecommerce, a service business, a plant, a distributor, or a professional firm — see how it applies in yours.

04Connected System — One Example From Ecommerce

One business.
Connected intelligence.

Nine isolated automations would each be blind to the others. This is a single system that understands the relationship between them — and knows when a human has to decide.

Nine tools fire in nine directions. None of them knows what the others just changed.

05Three Levels of Capability

Copilot. Coworker.
Operator.

Many companies stop at the first level. The value compounds at the third — but only where autonomy is deliberately bounded. Not every process should run itself, and we will tell you which ones shouldn't.

L1Stage

Copilot

Helps a person work faster. You ask, it answers. All actions belong to a human.

Drafting, retrieval, analysis, and summarization inside the tools your team already opens every morning. The human still drives.

L2Stage

Coworker

Takes assignments and reports back. You hand it work, it prepares and returns a result.

A bounded process runs end to end on a trigger or a schedule, with logging, error handling, and a clear owner when it fails.

L3Destination

Operator

Owns a workflow end to end, running the process inside the authority you set.

The environment monitors the operation, decides what needs to happen, works across systems, executes within defined authority, and escalates exceptions to the right person.

Governance

Autonomy is a setting,
not a promise.

  • Defined authority limits per workflow
  • Human approval on financial and customer-facing commitments
  • Full action logging and audit trail
  • Exception routing to a named owner
  • Permissions inherited from your existing systems
  • Review cadence on output quality
06Engagement Model

A loop, not
a project.

Each cycle leaves behind working infrastructure and a team that knows how to use it — and reveals the next thing worth building.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Learn the business, its goals, economics, systems, workflows, and real bottlenecks.

  2. 02

    Design

    Prioritize opportunities by value and feasibility, then architect the operating environment.

  3. 03

    Build

    Connect systems and implement the workflows and agents that perform the work.

  4. 04

    Train

    Onboard employees and redesign how the work gets done around the new capability.

  5. 05

    Maintain

    Monitor, troubleshoot, update, support, and govern the environment in production.

  6. 06

    Expand

    Identify the next opportunity and build the next layer of capability.

Managed AI
Operations.

You retain someone to administer your IT. An AI environment needs the same thing: ownership, monitoring, maintenance, permissions, support, and continuous improvement. Without it, capability decays quietly.

Think of it as an outsourced AI department — an operations partner, not a vendor.

M1

Monitor integrations and workflows

Continuous health checks on every connection and process in the environment.

M2

Troubleshoot failures

When something breaks, it is our responsibility to find it, diagnose it, and get the workflow operating correctly again.

M3

Adapt to change

APIs, models, and software move constantly. We keep the environment current.

M4

Maintain permissions and documentation

Access stays correct, and what was built stays legible to your team.

M5

Support and train employees

New hires onboard, existing staff level up, and questions have somewhere to go.

M6

Review output quality and impact

Regular review of output quality, usage, reliability, and measurable business impact.

M7

Identify new opportunities

We are inside the operation, so we see the next constraint early.

M8

Ongoing AI strategy

Where the capability should go next quarter, and what is not worth doing.

M9

Scope expansion projects

New builds specified, estimated, and sequenced against business priority.

M1 — M9

Find where
AI fits.

We start by understanding the business — not by pitching a predetermined product. We'll map where AI could create meaningful capacity in your operation, what should stay human, and where it makes sense to start.

  • How your operation actually runs today
  • Where time, margin, and attention are being consumed
  • Which workflows and systems present the strongest opportunities
  • What a practical first implementation could look like
