Custom AI solutions built on your own control tower
When you need more than standard automation, one custom system can manage your whole automation stack. We build the control tower that securely connects your systems, so every decision runs on data you can trust. Each project gets its own quote, and it starts with a free Brainstorm meeting.
What is a custom control tower?
- Connected
Your systems share information securely, and nobody on your team types it twice.
- Every run is logged
Every decision runs on data from your own systems.
- Built for you
Scoped around your goals and quoted per project, with our team running it after launch.
When work moves by hand between your systems, the numbers behind each decision depend on someone copying them across. A custom control tower is a system built to manage your automation stack. Our team builds it around your business, so those systems share information securely and every decision runs on data you can trust. It runs on the tools you already use, and we manage it with you after launch.
Every control tower is a one-off project with its own scope and its own quote. Our custom integration services connect your systems with n8n, Zapier or custom code, then add automations and AI agents where the work calls for them. We're testing open models such as Meta's Llama, running locally with Ollama, and we're quickly moving our own work toward fully local AI. You can start with a free Brainstorm, or with the Full Automation Plan, which maps the workflows costing you the most in five business days for $2,495 and is credited in full if the build starts within 30 days.

What your control tower can include
Process automation starts with one workflow. A control tower brings the whole stack under one custom system, built around your business from the pieces below.
Dashboard
One place to see what your automations did, what's waiting on a person and the numbers behind each decision.
Reports
The reports your team used to copy together by hand build on a schedule, from your own systems, with a record of every run.
Alerts
When a workflow fails or a number moves outside its range, the right person on your team hears about it.
AI agents at work
Agents trained on your business answer routine questions, route each request and keep your systems current, and your team steps in wherever it matters.
Playbooks
Each repeatable job is written down as a playbook, so every run follows the same steps and a new person on your team can pick it up.
Orchestration
Your control tower decides what runs when, passes work between your apps and agents, and keeps every step in order.
A control tower our team keeps running
As your business grows, so does your control tower. Ongoing management comes with every one we launch, so our team monitors each workflow, fixes what breaks and keeps adding automations. If you'd rather run it in-house, we train your team to own what we built and extend it.
Book a BrainstormBuilt and run on our own agency first
We built our control tower in 2024 to run the whole agency. Now we build yours. About 85% of iComm's own marketing runs on automation Travis Hedrick built, connected to more than 15 data sources and kept secure and local-first. Automate iComm is part of iComm Studios, which has been building for clients since 2005, and the process Travis built now runs for every iComm client.

Every control tower follows the same three rules
Your control tower handles your company data securely, and every run leaves a fingerprint.
Limited access by job.
Each connection gets only the permissions its job requires, so a reporting job can read your numbers but can't change them.
Fingerprinted, every run.
Each run is logged and timestamped, so any result can be traced.
Keys kept in a vault.
Passwords and API keys live in a secure vault, never in the code and never in an email thread.
Custom control towers, answered
A custom control tower is a system built to manage your automation stack. Our team builds it around your business, so your systems share information securely and every decision runs on data you can trust. It can include a dashboard, reports, alerts, AI agents, playbooks and the orchestration that ties them together, and each one is a one-off project scoped around your goals.
Anyone who wants or needs more than standard automation. If one workflow is the problem, process automation is the place to start. If you run several automations and want them managed as one system, a control tower fits.
Every control tower is quoted per project. It starts with a free Brainstorm meeting, or with the Full Automation Plan, which is $2,495, arrives in five business days and is credited in full if the build starts within 30 days.
We connect apps like HubSpot, Salesforce, QuickBooks, Stripe, Slack, Gmail, Outlook and Calendly. That covers your CRM, email, texts, finances, payments, calls, scheduling, helpdesk, marketing, analytics, orders, inventory and HR systems. Every connection follows your IT team's security and approval rules.
We're testing open models such as Meta's Llama, running locally with Ollama, and we're quickly moving our own work toward fully local AI. Every connection also gets only the access its job needs, every run is logged, and passwords and API keys live in a secure vault.
Our team does. Ongoing management comes with every control tower we launch, so we monitor each workflow and fix what breaks. If you'd rather run it in-house, we train your team to own what we built and extend it.
You do. Your workflows run in your own accounts. If you ever move on, we hand over the workflows and their logs, then remove our access and the credentials we hold.
