I sit with your team. Then we build and run the system.
We turn your spreadsheets, reports, and manual workflows into systems that actually run, and we stay to operate them with you.
Founder-led by David. Backed by a small team that scales with you.

Live systems
Live systems we run.
Systems operating across data, reports, approvals, research, agents, and workflow tools.
5M+ data points
tracked across operations
Operational data system
Ingest, calculations, audit trails, dashboards, CSV reports, and support.
Context
Data from multiple teams and systems needed to be processed, consolidated, structured, and audit-ready.
System
Operational system to ingest email, uploads, platform data, and reports, then run compliant calculations, audit trails, dashboards, CSV exports, and support workflows.
Impact
Audit-ready reporting, real-time dashboards, and ongoing support for audit responses and methodology development.
Outcome
Audit-ready reporting with real-time dashboards.
1,000+ reports
processed automatically
Document intelligence system
Turns files, emails, and uploads into structured data.
Context
Critical data arrived across emails, PDFs, spreadsheets, and system exports with no consistent way to capture or use it.
System
Automated AI ingestion and classification layer that processes data from email, uploads, and integrations, extracting to structured data.
Impact
Continuous, automated data flow into downstream systems, eliminating manual review and copy-paste workflows.
Outcome
Eliminated manual review and copy-paste workflows.
End-to-end AI
reporting automation
Workflow reporting system
Builds guided reporting flows for audits and recurring reviews.
Context
Teams needed guidance to meet regulatory, sustainability, audit, and executive reporting requirements while structuring their data correctly.
System
End-to-end workflow reporting system to import data, guide teams through questions, generate AI-drafted sections, AI scoring, and report styling.
Impact
AI structured, guided reporting with consistent outputs and clearer alignment to regulatory requirements.
Outcome
Consistent, regulation-aligned reporting outputs.
Other systems we build
What we replace

One reliable workflow your team can use
Cleaning and reformatting messy files
Messy inputs normalized into usable data
Repeating the same steps month after month
Systems that keep improving over time
What we build
Systems that grow with your workflows
From files to systems
PDFs, spreadsheets, and exports → structured data and real workflows. No more copy-pasting.
Internal workflow systems
Replace manual processes with systems your team actually uses.
Data + knowledge chat
Ask questions directly against your data and documents.
Reporting automation
Raw inputs become dashboards and reports automatically.
How it works
Run the workflow. Build the system around it.
Most systems are designed too far away from the real workflow. We operate close to the work, automate alongside it, and let the system evolve around reality.
Inside the workflow
Trusted output.
The promise is simple: the work gets done, then the work gets easier to run.
Audit workflow
"David and his team reduced manual input errors and improved the accuracy of our performance tracking. They're quick to update the platform as our needs evolve."
Brianna Treat
Director of Sustainability / Climate Pledge Arena
Embedded partner
"David jumps in like a teammate and shows up to meetings with new ideas already built. It feels like working with a product partner."
CloudBuddy Customer
Head of Digital Sustainability / Global Energy Technology Provider
Complex rules
"CloudBuddy takes the time to understand those complex rules and decisions. The level of support offered by the team is unparalleled."
Senior Sustainability Consultant
Sustainability Manager / Leading Asia-Pacific Energy Provider
Growth workflow
"CloudBuddy set up AI agents that rebuilt my website and improved SEO. Now my studio shows up in local search to bring in new students, and updates are usually done the same day."
Veronica Kolegas
Music Teacher and Studio Owner
Lead operations
"CloudBuddy built a lead finder that saves me hours every week. I used to search for stores manually. Now the system finds them for me and tracks everything."

Example operational workflow systems
Workflow Mapping - $995
We identify where systems help most and choose the first workflow system to run with your team.
Connected Workflow Systems
Add workflow systems by business area.
One system might run marketing ads. Another sustainability reporting. Each system can include reporting, approvals, monitoring, AI support, and operating logic for that area of work.
Each added workflow system uses the $5,000/month build-and-run model.

How we work with teams
Systems built and run inside your team.
Teams bring us recurring work, rules, edge cases, and deadlines. I learn the workflow by running it with them, then we keep improving the system as it becomes part of daily operations.
01
I learn the workflow by running it with your team.
02
The system evolves alongside the real workflow.
03
Clear outputs, traceable inputs, and reliable operating support.
"Systems that stay grounded in the real workflow, improve over time, and give the team output they can rely on."
Start with one workflow
Have work that should run differently?
Some workflows need less manual work. Others become possible for the first time.
