The Watts Company

AI-powered systems for small businesses.

Websites, automations, and outreach engines, built fast.

Everyone says they sell AI systems, but unfortunately the industry is crowded with overzealous claims and 2012 solutions dressed up as AI. That's why I show you real work that's already been automated and is currently live in production for clients — no meetings, no slide decks, just evidence you can watch for yourself.

CAPABILITIES/WebsitesAutomationLead GenIntegrations

01 / Thesis

Most small businesses are running on infrastructure built for a different decade.

We close that gap.

02 / Capabilities

One studio. Four capabilities. Built around how operators actually work.

01 / WEBSITES

Custom Websites

Cinematic, modern websites for businesses whose current site doesn't reflect what they do. Designed and shipped in days, not months. Hosting and maintenance handled.

02 / ROLE AUTOMATION

Role Automation

Replace entire desk-job functions with AI-powered systems. Data entry, email triage, customer support tickets, scheduling, report generation, demand and logistics planning. If a person at a computer is doing it repeatedly, it can be automated.

03 / LEAD GENERATION

Lead Generation Engines

Cold outreach pipelines that find prospects, enrich contact data, and send personalized pitches at scale. The same architecture The Watts Company runs internally to find new clients.

04 / ENTERPRISE INTEGRATIONS

Enterprise Integrations

Custom AI integrations into existing enterprise systems — ServiceNow, SAP, CRMs, ERPs, internal tools. We connect Claude and OpenAI APIs into the workflows your business already runs on.

03 / Selected Work

Work that makes the case for itself.

PRODUCT / TRAVEL PLANNING / 2026

A full road trip planner. Map, GPS, and the entire Supercharger network.

USA Road Trip is a multi-day trip planning product. Drop city stops on a map and the app generates real driving routes, surfaces every Tesla Supercharger along the way (1,800+ stations pulled live from the National Renewable Energy Lab API), and tracks your real-time GPS position as you drive. User accounts persist trips for later, with auto-detection of which day and stop you're on mid-route. Built end-to-end — auth, geocoding, third-party API integration, real-time GPS, and the marketing site itself.

CLIENT WORK / FREIGHT COORDINATION / 2026

Carrier scheduling, documentation, and status reporting — fully automated.

An end-to-end freight coordination system built for a client managing high-volume outbound shipping. Replaced a manual workflow that previously consumed hours of every day. The system schedules pickups directly with carriers (UPS, FedEx, Central Transport, and others) — interfacing with carrier portals where APIs exist and via email where they don't. It groups shipments intelligently, generates and sends shipping documentation, replies to carrier correspondence, and updates internal stakeholders on shipment status as it changes. Every email, every document, every status update is handled by language models. Zero human intervention required between order release and pickup confirmation.

WEBSITE / GUIDED FISHING OUTFITTER / ARKANSAS / 2026

A 70-year-old fishing outfitter, brought into the modern era.

Cotter Trout Dock is a family-owned guided trout fishing operation on Arkansas's White River, founded in 1954. Their existing site hadn't been touched in over a decade. We rebuilt it as a cinematic single-page experience emphasizing their three-generation heritage, private 15-acre island, and Field & Stream-featured shore lunches.

INTERNAL / LEAD GENERATION ENGINE / 2026

We built our own lead engine. We can build yours.

The Watts Company's internal lead generation pipeline finds small businesses with operational gaps, enriches contact data via Apollo, evaluates fit using Claude, generates personalized pitches, and sends through Instantly. It runs nightly on a DigitalOcean droplet. The same architecture is available as a custom build for any business that wants to stop relying on inbound.

04 / Process

How we work.

01 / DISCOVERY

30-minute call. We figure out what you actually need, not what an agency would sell you.

02 / BUILD

We build fast. Most projects deploy in under two weeks.

03 / HANDOFF

You own everything. Code, hosting, accounts. We stay on retainer if you want, or walk away clean.

05 / Fit

Who we work with.

GOOD FIT

  • Small businesses (under 100 employees).
  • Operators who can make decisions without a committee.
  • Anyone whose website embarrasses them.
  • Anyone tired of their team doing repetitive work that could be automated.

NOT A FIT

  • Enterprises with procurement processes.
  • Anyone shopping for the cheapest possible vendor.
  • Anyone who wants AI for the buzzword, not the outcome.

The Watts Company is a small studio building AI-powered systems for businesses that don't have a tech team. We design custom websites, lead generation engines, and back-office automations — the same infrastructure that Fortune 500s pay agencies six figures for, made accessible to operators with under 100 employees.
