Take the work off your plate.

Claude, set up for your business. Done for you.

WorkAhead sets up and implements Claude for small businesses. John Dietrich builds it inside the tools you already use: lead replies, quotes, email, reports and follow-ups, with a person on your team approving everything before it goes out. Start with the $295 business check, or go straight to a setup, starting from $1,995.

Who sets up Claude for a small business?

WorkAhead does. John Dietrich learns how your business operates, connects Claude to the software you already use and sets up the drafts, follow-ups and reports your team needs. He is based in Central Mississippi and works remotely with businesses anywhere in the US.

What we take on

What does WorkAhead take off your plate?

Replies, quotes, reminders and reports, drafted in the tools you already use. All built around the way your business actually operates.

What I actually build

What does a Claude setup from WorkAhead include?

Every WorkAhead engagement is custom to one business. The five systems cover the foundational layers, and I install all of them under one roof.

01

Drafts in your voice

Skills that take on the repetitive work in your voice and follow your rules. Front desk drafts recall message templates, your tech builds accurate quotes, your team sends tenant notices. You approve; it goes out.

02

Your tools, connected

Gmail or Outlook, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Slack, HubSpot, QuickBooks and your spreadsheets, connected to Claude in one working context. Claude doesn't have to ask where things live; it already knows.

03

Follow-ups that go out on time

Scheduled tasks that start on events (a missed appointment, a new lead, a late invoice), follow your rules, and report back. Set up inside your own software, with a person approving the work.

04

It remembers your customers

Long-term context that learns your business: clients, history, decisions, preferences. It compounds over time instead of resetting every conversation.

05

You approve what goes out

Approvals, audit trails, weekly digest reports, escalation rules. You stay the operator; the AI stays accountable.

Which of our tools can Claude connect to?

Anthropic's connector directory lists Claude connectors for Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Microsoft 365, Slack, HubSpot and Intuit QuickBooks. Where your software has no listed connector, John Dietrich builds a custom connector over MCP, using the method Anthropic documents, and your team approves what it can read.

What is Claude for Small Business, and can WorkAhead set it up?

Claude for Small Business is Anthropic's set of prebuilt workflows for owners. It installs as a plugin, and you approve what it does. WorkAhead installs the parts that fit your business, connects them to your tools, writes the approval rules with you and trains your team.

Does a person approve the AI work before anything goes out?

Yes. A person approves each message before it goes out. Later, you can choose to pre-approve one routine type, like a reminder, in wording you signed off on. A weekly digest shows what went out.

Need the site before the system?

What does it cost to have Claude set up for a small business?

The business check is $295, fixed, and comes with a written report. Setups start from $1,995, one time, with a final proposal priced on the size and complexity of your business. You approve the price before any work starts. You pay WorkAhead once, and Anthropic bills your Claude plan, such as a Claude Team plan; see claude.com/pricing.
