We Make AI Work
For Your Business
Not demos. Not slide decks. Actual working systems that save your team hours every week — built by people who run them in production every day.
Built by People Who Actually Use This Stuff
We didn't start out as a consulting firm. We started out as engineers building internal tools — automating the tedious work that was eating up our team's time at real businesses: tax firms, e-commerce operations, professional services companies. Claude Code, custom agents, automated pipelines. We built all of it for ourselves first.
At some point we looked up and realized: every business owner we talked to wanted the same thing. They'd seen the demos. They knew AI agents could help. But they didn't have a technical team to actually set it up, and the agencies they called wanted to sell them a six-month engagement before writing a single line of code.
InstallAgent exists because that gap is real and fixable. We know how these systems work in production — not just in theory — and we can get your team up and running fast. The goal isn't to create dependency on us. It's to hand you something that works and that your people understand.
Our Approach
We've seen what happens when people skip steps. Here's how we don't do that.
Listen First, Build Second
Before we touch a terminal, we want to understand your actual workflow. Where does time get wasted? What do your people dread doing every day? What would "working well" look like six months from now? We ask a lot of questions before writing a single line of code.
Start Small, Prove Value, Then Expand
We don't pitch you a six-month engagement upfront. We start with one workflow — the highest-value thing we can automate right now — and we get it working. Once you've seen it save real hours, the path forward is obvious. Scope creep only happens when you start too big.
Document Everything — Your Team Owns It
Every system we build comes with documentation your team can actually use. Not a 40-page PDF nobody reads — a clear runbook explaining how it works, how to change it, and what to do when something breaks. You should never need to call us to keep the lights on.
Security Is Not Optional
Sandboxed environments, encrypted credentials stored outside code, principle of least privilege, audit-ready configurations. We build to SOC 2 standards because our own clients require it — and because it's just the right way to handle systems that touch real business data.
Small Team. Deep Focus.
We're not a 200-person agency where your project gets handed off to a junior contractor. The people you talk to are the people who build.
Cooper Hathaway
Co-Founder, Head of Development
Built and runs a tax practice serving 700+ clients, then taught himself to build the automation stack behind it. Docker sandboxes, Claude Code agents, API integrations, full-stack deployment — Cooper writes the systems his own firm depends on daily. If it touches infrastructure, security, or AI agents, he probably built it at 2am and shipped it before breakfast.
Bryce Marraro
Co-Founder, Workflow Design
Eight years automating workflows and hardening security systems for film productions gave Bryce a different lens on how businesses actually operate. He understands the full stack, from what a business actually needs to what it takes to wire it together, which is why Install Agent exists in the first place. When he sits down with a client, he's already thinking in systems: where the bottlenecks are, what should be automated, and what the agent handoffs need to look like. He built this company because he kept seeing the same gap between what AI can do and what businesses are actually running.
Jake Torres
Infrastructure & Security
Jake came out of DevSecOps and now focuses entirely on making our client deployments bulletproof. Firewall rules, credential management, audit logging, access controls — he owns the security layer across every environment we deploy. If something touches a client's data, Jake has signed off on it.
