Embedded AI & tech transformation partner
Your industry expertise. Our technology team. Shared outcome.
Most strong businesses never got the technology team their ambition needs. We become yours - senior builders inside your business every week, working out what to build, what to delete, and where AI actually fits, then shipping it. We stay for years, not projects.
1–2
new partners a year. Chosen carefully.
3–4 days
a week inside each business.
20 yrs
scaling companies through technology.
Outcomes
not hours. It is how we ask to be judged.

How we work
The Audit
2-week sprint · $30k
We go inside before we propose anything. Two weeks embedded in your business - mapping how things actually run, what to build, what to delete, and where AI genuinely fits. You get a ranked transformation roadmap and a firm proposal.
The roadmap is yours to keep, whether or not we ever work together.
Prove It
First 90 days
The partnership starts, and you hold the exit. We operate from week one. Systems get sorted, your team gets trained on AI, the first fixes ship. Not happy in the first 90 days? End it, no lock-in.
Real fixes shipped in the first weeks - paid for by the waste they remove.
All In
Yearly partnership
We stay until it works. By now your team knows us and we've delivered real results. We stay embedded and keep compounding them - building alongside you for the long run.
Standard fees, or part of our fee against the upside where it fits both sides. The depth is the same either way.
What makes us different
We’re in your business, not our office.
We sit with your team, learn how things actually work, and build from the inside. Not consultants flying in with slide decks.
We’ll tell you what you actually need.
We challenge assumptions, strip back complexity, and focus on what moves the numbers. Not what sounds impressive.
You own everything.
Your data, your systems, your IP. We build on your infrastructure, not ours. Nothing is locked in.
We stay until it works.
Not until the contract is done. We stay until the business outcome is there - adoption, process improvement, numbers moving.
We choose our partners carefully.
We only take on 1–2 businesses a year. That means we’re genuinely invested in making yours work, not spreading thin across a dozen clients.
We run on AI ourselves.
Growthbox runs on its own AI operating system - our briefs, delivery tracking and documentation are drafted by agents every day. We install the same way of working in your business.
What our partners say
Operator notes
All essays →Automate last
A business is a program nobody wrote down. You can't automate source code that doesn't exist.

What wheat, smartphones, and AI have in common
Wheat domesticated humans, not the other way around. The same pattern is repeating with AI.

Why vibe coding hits a ceiling
Three things still separate experienced builders from vibe coders - and they're all the same thing.
12 Apr 2026
We pick 1–2 businesses a year.
And we go all in.
We don't sell hours. We invest our team, our experience, and our reputation into businesses we believe in. If we take you on, it's because we believe we can move your numbers - and we're happy to be judged on them.
Strong business.
Underweight on tech?
We work with established businesses that know their industry inside out but haven't had the right technology team yet.
