Cassian AI was founded by Jahleel Jackson, an AI engineer who has shipped systems for a Fortune 500 consulting firm, a federally-funded research institute, and an NSF-backed product incubator.
The pattern across every engagement was the same: leadership knew AI could help, but no one had translated the hype into a concrete, sequenced plan tied to their actual workflows. That gap — between "we should use AI" and "here's exactly where, in what order, and for what return" — is what Cassian exists to close.
We work with owner-operated professional service businesses that want technology to compound their advantage without compromising the craft that built them.
2 Week AI & Automation Readiness Audit
A two-week deep-dive into your operations, data, and systems in order to identify exactly where automation and modern technology will create the highest return for your business.
$4,000
Most businesses automate the wrong thing first. They burn $15–$50K on a pilot that doesn't pay back, then conclude AI doesn't work for them. The audit costs $4K and takes two weeks. It tells you exactly which process to automate, in what order, so your first project actually returns money. Let's find your number.
After the audit, optional Build and Retainer phases are available if you want us to implement the systems and keep improving them with you. Scope and pricing for those stages are tailored to what the audit uncovers.

Annual cost vs. projected savings
At the expected case, audit payback vs. a $4,000 fee is about 3.8 months of savings — before counting any build-phase upside.
