⚡ Give me something to automate and I'll build it so it runs for you 24/7. That's the promise. 📩 Send a quick outline of your project and I'll reply with a personalised Loom walking through my approach. Every missed call is a lost customer, and most businesses miss more than they realise: after hours, during the rush, and any time the front desk is already busy. I'm Xavier, an AI automation specialist who builds AI voice agents and AI receptionists that answer every call, qualify the lead, book the appointment, and update your CRM without anyone lifting a finger. Around that voice layer I build the full automation stack on GoHighLevel, n8n, and Make com for growing businesses and agencies. Every build is documented, tested, and made for your team to maintain long after I'm gone. AI voice and reception, done properly: inbound AI receptionists that greet callers and book straight into your calendar, outbound voice agents that call and qualify leads, missed-call text-back so no enquiry ever goes cold, and after-hours coverage that sounds human and never sleeps. I build these on Vapi, Retell AI, and Bland AI, wired directly into your CRM and booking system so every conversation becomes a record and a clear next step. Recent results: AI voice agents (Vapi/Retell) qualifying and booking leads around the clock, AI receptionists cutting missed calls to near zero for service businesses, AI chatbots reducing support tickets by over 70%, and CRM automations eliminating hours of manual follow-up. How I work: I learn how your business actually runs, find where time and money leak, then build the automation that closes the gap, bringing in Claude, OpenAI, and Python when custom logic or AI agents are needed. For larger builds I lead a vetted team of automation engineers, so you still get one accountable point of contact regardless of project size. Typical timelines: a single n8n/Make com workflow in a few days. A working AI voice agent or receptionist in about a week. A full multi-system build in a few weeks. Pricing is scoped to your project. Core tools: Vapi, Retell AI, Bland AI, ElevenLabs, n8n, Make com, Zapier, GoHighLevel, HubSpot, Claude API, OpenAI, Python, Airtable.

Stop losing leads to manual workflows. I built the systems that helped Better Earth Solar drive $18MM in monthly closed contracts with 6 closers. Most businesses have a "leaky bucket" problem. They spend money on ads and staff, but revenue slips through the cracks of disconnected apps and manual data entry. I bridge those gaps using AI, Make, and GoHighLevel. Why trust me with your infrastructure? Scalability: Built a $250k/month marketing engine for Ecommerce Business Builders. Revenue Impact: Architected the inside sales infrastructure for Better Earth Solar ($18MM/mo). Retention: Designed custom CRM systems for SOTA Weightloss to increase MRR and LTV. What I can build for you: AI-Driven Lead Engines: Automated sourcing and qualification with custom AI icebreakers (OpenAI/Claude). Content Factories: Fully automated workflows for blogs, social teasers, and video distribution. Hands-Off Onboarding: End-to-end systems for clients and staff (Payments → Briefs → CMS). The Tech Stack: GoHighLevel | Make | Zapier | Airtable | HubSpot | Close CRM | Custom APIs I don't just "set up Zaps." I architect meticulous, lasting systems that reduce your overhead and increase your output. Let's chat about how I can help you automate your growth.
