Capability kits for the work AI should take next.

Each kit is one recurring job, researched at a real business: who it runs on, what went wrong for others who built it, what it costs to run, and the prompt that builds it with your AI. For the person who runs the work. A new one every weekday.

The first ten-minute recording is coming. Until then, how a kit works in 40 seconds. Every recording

Kit 29, today, 30 October 2026

commercial HVAC and plumbing, a regional mechanical contractor of about 436 people

Fourteen units serviced, twelve paid for

A commercial heating, cooling and plumbing contractor of about 436 people is hiring someone to reprice every maintenance agreement before it renews. Here is how an agreement renews at a loss without anyone looking, what went wrong for others who priced these books, and a build that adds up the cost and drafts a price but sends nothing on its own.

Which seat are you in?

  1. You run the work

    Pick the kit for a job you already do. Check who it runs on first, then build it with your AI.

    See the kits

  2. You hold the expertise

    A kit is the work built around one person's judgment. If the judgment is yours, send us the job and we build the kit around it.

    Ask for a kit

  3. No one runs it in your business

    Three ways to get a kit run: your own person learns to build it, a part-time operator through INSTIG8, or, when nobody holds the expertise yet, Konstellation.
