CTO for hire · AI infrastructure architect

I build the AI infrastructure, then run it as your CTO.

Remote fractional CTO, from $3,500/month, with equity partnership available on the builds I’m most invested in. Or buy a system outright, one time. Everything you see here — the machines, the agents, the five live products below — is proof, not a pitch deck. I built mine first.

The store

The machines and agents, for sale.

Two things run under the hood of everything I build: the machines (full systems) and the agents (the strategists inside them). Buy a build outright, or ask about licensing the machine itself.

MACHINE

Unicorn — The Studio Engine

Upload one video. The machine turns it into graded content, a sharpened pitch, and a posting plan across every channel — the same engine running Erika’s own growth loop.

AGENT

The Sales & Marketing Agent

The strategy layer inside Unicorn. It grades every drop against your offer ladder, picks the PR angle, and tells you exactly what to sell next — not a chatbot, a standing strategist.

Your business, your AI, built from scratch in one working session and handed to you running, with 30 days of support.

Proof, not promises

Things I built that are running right now.

Here’s the thing — everybody says they “do AI.” So I’d rather just show you. These aren’t mockups. They’re my own businesses, live today, running on the same systems I’ll build for you.

No. 01Healthcare · AI DirectorySenior Living ExpertWhen a family is panicking at 3 AM after mom's hospital discharge, this is the system that answers. Pulls live licensing data from 1,603 Texas HHSC-registered facilities — bed availability, Medicaid status, memory-care certification — and follows up automatically. Families never hit a voicemail.seniorliving.expertNo. 02SaaS · 360° AI ToursSenior Living ToursOperators type their community name, the AI matches it against the state registry, verifies the license live, and builds a 360° interactive brochure in minutes. On publish, it auto-emails the operator a permanent link, a lobby QR poster, and a website embed. A daily agent nudges stalled onboards through each stage without a human touching it.seniorliving-tours.comNo. 03B2B SaaS · Medicare ComplianceClaimGuardUpload a home-health claim. In 45 seconds the AI reads it the way a CMS auditor would — citing 42 CFR § 424.22, PDGM case-mix weights, and the TX LCD by number — and returns a scored audit with every specific failure rewritten. Built for the 94 Houston agencies the federal data says are highest-risk.claimguard.poweredbyerika.comNo. 04AI App · Senior PlacementPlacement OSA family describes their situation in plain language. The AI matches them against 1,603 real facilities — filtering by care type, language, Medicaid, proximity to Texas Medical Center — and returns a shortlist with license numbers and bed status. They apply once. The operator gets a workspace, approves, and the family signs a digital contract and pays a deposit. No broker, no phone tag.placement.seniorliving.expertNo. 05Commerce · World Cup 2026Curated HoustonHouston hosts 7 World Cup matches. FIFA owns the stadium. This owns everything else: 13 fan experiences (cool-down lounges, escape shuttles, fan marches, watch parties), built in 5 languages before the first ball drops. A ConnectWizard segments every visitor at capture and routes them to what they actually need. Goes live June 14 — Germany kicks off at NRG.curatedhouston.club

Every one of them carries the same little line you’ll find at the bottom of this page. That’s the whole marketing plan — the work advertises itself. A facility owner trying the 360 tour, a Medicare biller running her first audit, a World Cup fan booking a shuttle: they all land here eventually.

Four ways to work with me

Hire me as your CTO, or buy a system outright.

FRACTIONAL CTO · REMOTE

$3,500/mo

MONTHLY · REMOTE · EQUITY AVAILABLE

I run your AI infrastructure as a fractional CTO — architecture, build, and roadmap, ongoing. On builds I’m most invested in, a reduced retainer plus equity is available instead of the full monthly rate.

Best for: founders who need a technical partner, not a one-time build.

Apply as a client

CUSTOM BUILD

$3,500

ONE TIME · CARD OR ZELLE · NO SUBSCRIPTION

Your business, your AI, built from the ground up. I spend an hour understanding exactly what eats your week, build the system that takes it over, hand it to you running, and stay on call for 30 days while you settle in.

Best for: businesses with a specific workflow problem they want solved.

Pay $3,500 by card

WHITE-LABEL · PROVEN SYSTEM

$5,000

ONE TIME · CARD OR ZELLE · YOUR BRAND

Pick any of the five systems above. I clone it, rebrand it for your business, swap in your data and your domain, and deploy it. You get architecture that’s already proven — not a prototype. The extra $1,500 is the architecture you don’t have to pay to invent.

Best for: businesses in senior care, healthcare compliance, ticketed events, or local services.

EQUITY PARTNERSHIP

By negotiation

REDUCED RETAINER · SKIN IN THE GAME

For platforms where I’m building value that shows up at exit, I take a position — equity or carry, structured by counsel — alongside a reduced retainer. I win when you win. Reserved for a small number of partners a year.

Best for: funded or revenue-real platforms with a growth thesis.

No. 01

We talk for an hour.

You tell me what eats your week. Not a sales call — a working session. I take notes the whole time.

No. 02

I build your AI to take those exact things over.

Writing, follow-up, scheduling, content, customer questions — the real work in your real business. Not a template, not a demo.

No. 03

I hand it to you running, and I teach you how to drive it.

Plain English. You will not write a line of code, and you will not need to.

No. 04

Then I stay on call for 30 days.

While you settle in. If something needs adjusting, I adjust it.

Common questions


What does “done-for-you” actually mean?

It means I build it and you use it. I set up AI to handle the repetitive work in your business, hand it over working, and show you how to run it. You never have to become a tech person — that is the whole point.

Why flat pricing on the builds?

Because pricing games waste everybody’s time. On the two one-time builds, $3,500 or $5,000 covers the conversation, the build, the handover, and 30 days of me on call — no upsell. The fractional CTO and equity tracks are different: ongoing engagements, priced by application, not flat.

What’s the difference between a build and hiring you as CTO?

A build is one system, done once, for a flat price. Fractional CTO is ongoing — I stay on as the technical partner running your AI infrastructure and roadmap, from $3,500/month. On the builds I’m most invested in, I’ll take a reduced retainer plus equity instead. There’s no live checkout for the retainer or equity track — apply below and I’ll walk you through it on a call.

How do I pay?

Whatever’s easiest for you. Pay securely by card right on this page, or Zelle me directly at ErikaCrossley@gmail.com — Zelle is simple, instant, and nobody takes a cut, though Zelle payments are final, so it’s best after we’ve spoken. Either way you get a same-day receipt. Prefer to talk first? Book a free call and pay after.

Who is this for?

Owner-operated businesses. Senior care, events, services, e-commerce — if you run the business and the busywork is running you, this is for you.

How long does it take?

It depends on what we’re building, so I’ll give you the real timeline on our first call instead of a number that sounds good on a website.
