The human integration

Your team should not be the API.

Every system sends its data to a person. The person moves it into the next system. More systems arrive. Eventually everything routes through the human, and the human is the only thing holding the operation together.

Owners do not call us about AI. They call us about three sentences.

  1. 01

    The same numbers get retyped into three systems

    A booking is entered once by the guest, once by the host and once again at close. Two of those are unpaid data entry.

  2. 02

    A web lead sits until tomorrow morning

    Contacting a web lead inside an hour made firms about 7 times more likely to qualify it than waiting an hour longer. Harvard Business Review, 2011.

  3. 03

    Support answers the same questions every week

    A high volume of repeat questions arrives through the support channels at Uniserve. Most already have an answer written down somewhere the customer could not find.

The cost

One day of work that is not judgement.

Automate the repeatable. Keep the judgement.

88%

of companies report using AI. About 6% attribute more than 5% of profit to it.

93%

of AI budgets go to technology. About 7% goes to the people expected to use it.

Exodus

See how your business actually runs.

The first call is a free operations audit. You walk us through the workflow that hurts most, we put your own hours and hourly rate against it while you watch, and you leave with a map of where the time and the money leak.

Most businesses are a black box, even to the people running them. Inputs go in. Outputs come out. Nobody can see the eleven manual steps in between.

Now we know what to build.

Thirty minutes. No demo, no slide deck, no requirements questionnaire. One workflow, then the numbers behind it. The map is yours whether or not you hire us.

The proof

The new way is already running.

Not a mockup. Fennec is the operating system we co-founded, live in venues tonight. What follows is every engagement at its real status.

See Fennec, the live productBook a free audit

Real screens from the live product · 5 named venues · 20+ event companies

Everything we have built, at its real status.

A premium number without a meaning is a decoration. Every line below says what it counts and links to the work behind it.

Fennec · Live

One system running the room, the door and the bar.

A venue does not need five tools. It needs one record of the night. Fennec is the operating system we co-founded and still build: floor plans, live ops, ticketing, guest CRM, bottle service, inventory, campaigns and analytics, off one set of records that every surface reads at the same time.

Not an automation. A full operating system, in production tonight.

Live at Harbour Event Centre, TradeX, The Pit UBC, The Show Ottawa, Twins Nightclub, with 20+ event companies publishing on the network. Two-way POS sync with Square, Toast and Lightspeed.

How we work and charge

Nothing is built before the number is on the page.

Five steps. The bar is agreed in writing before anything is built, the clock starts at deployment, and if the system misses the bar we keep working at no additional cost until it clears.

  1. 01 · 30 minutes, free

    Talk

    You describe the workflow that hurts most. We put your own hours and hourly rate against it while you watch. You leave with the leak map either way.

  2. 02 · Before any build

    Map

    The one or two builds worth doing, with the numbers beside them. Constraints go in here: hosting, data residency, the till that stays where it is.

  3. 03 · One page, both names

    Sign

    The process, the current numbers, the bar, the timeframe and how we will measure it. Nothing is built before this page exists.

  4. 04 · Scoped tight on purpose

    Build

    The two or three things that move the signed number, not a platform. Uniserve's programme runs three months.

  5. 05 · Clock starts at deployment

    Measure

    Same method, same process, arithmetic printed. If the bar has not cleared, we keep working at no additional cost until it does.

The guarantee · six terms, written down before we build

We stay until it pays.

Most AI work is sold on a promise and invoiced on effort. We would rather be invoiced on a number you signed off on. The bar and the timeframe are set per engagement, and nothing here guarantees a particular dollar amount.

  1. 01

    A signed baseline before any build

    We measure the process as it runs today and write the numbers down. You sign off on the exact figures we are measured against.

  2. 02

    The clock starts at deployment

    Not at signature, not at kickoff. The measurement window opens the day the system is in your team's hands doing real work.

  3. 03

    If it misses the bar, we keep working at no additional cost

    Same scope, same team, no new invoice, until the agreed bar clears.

  4. 04

    Cancel at any time

    No minimum term and no exit fee. You keep what has been built and delivered to that point.

  5. 05

    A free operations audit up front

    Before money changes hands we map where time and money leak and show the arithmetic. You keep that map whether or not you hire us.

  6. 06

    You own the code

    The repository, the data and the deployment are yours. No licence to renegotiate, no hostage fee to leave.

Fig. 10 · Run your own numbers

The number we would be measured against.

Put your own headcount, hours and hourly cost in. Whatever this prints is the kind of figure that goes on the signed page, once we have measured it with you rather than guessed it.

Dollars recovered per year

3 × 6 hrs/week × 48 weeks = 864 hrs/year
864 hrs/year × $40/hr = $34,560/year

An estimate from numbers you enter, not a promise. 48 working weeks assumed. Your real figure depends on the process we replace, and only the measured version goes on the signed page.

Founders

You work with the builders.

One of us designs it, one of us builds it, and both of us are in the room. Once it is live, the system runs on its own. For bigger projects, you can add monthly support with an account manager as part of a retainer.

We built Fennec first. Sitting with venue operators on live nights showed us how much a business loses to manual work, fragmented systems and bad visibility. The lesson did not stop at nightlife, so Exodus takes the same approach into other industries: understand the operation, build what it actually needs.

Different backgrounds. Same question.

Why are businesses still running modern operations through manual systems?

  1. 01

    Two founders on every engagement

    The people who scope the work are the people who ship it.

  2. 02

    Direct access

    You email us and you get us. One address, no ticket queue.

  3. 03

    Optional account manager

    Our builds run on their own. For bigger projects, monthly support with an account manager is available as part of a retainer.

  4. 04

    No juniors on your budget

    If it gets built, one of the two of us built it.

  5. 05

    No deck-only strategy

    A slide is not a system. Every engagement ends in software that runs, and you own the code.

  6. 06

    We learn the business first

    We sit with the team that does the work and map where time and money leak. The build starts after that.

In production

Why Exodus exists.

Building Fennec exposed how much companies lose doing things manually. That led to work across telecom, hospitality and municipal politics. Now Exodus enters a business, understands the operation, and builds the system that moves it forward.
