AI implementation for business operations
Your client’s team still spends the week exporting, reconciling, re-keying, emailing for approval, rebuilding the same report and chasing the owner of a number.
AI looks easy to try. Making it useful inside a large company is the hard part. Show us the workflow. We build the software around the systems they already run.
The big systems hold the records. The work between them lives in spreadsheets and inboxes.
Someone on your client’s team carries it every week.
We replace that step with software.
We connect to SAP, Salesforce, Workday, Excel and the rest where the client grants access and the system allows it. We do not replace them.
Operations data only. We never ask for patient records.
Your client’s team does not want another system to learn. We build the missing step and leave the rest in place.
We learn how the workflow runs today. We redesign it. Then we connect the tools the team already uses and build the software that is missing.
A build uses only the parts the workflow needs.
We use AI where it makes sense.
We use normal software where normal software makes sense.
We care about the business result.
A build with no AI step is a normal result.
Each card is an example of what 3Fold can build. None describes a client project.

ExampleNo AI step in this build
A request waits in an inbox until someone chases it.
Example
A coordinator retypes each emailed request into the system of record.
Example
Someone rebuilds the same deck from three exports every week.
On your client project
You need someone who takes the Excel work off the project and hands back working software.
Start from the written intake or send your own write-up to kent@3fold.me.
Too small for your firm
You need a place to send client work that is too small for your firm.
A standard build covers one workflow and up to two or three of the client’s systems.
$5,000

One time. No subscription. No sales call.

Your client’s security team will ask where the data goes and who approves what leaves.
You carry the risk of whoever you bring in. At 3Fold that is one person.
Kent Shi
Founder of 3Fold. Harvard Kennedy School ’22.
A Shopify e-commerce agency coordinated time-sensitive client launches in Basecamp.
3Fold built an operating layer that surfaces what needs attention, flags work at risk and prepares follow-ups while the account manager stays in control.
The agency stays unnamed. We name no client without written permission.
Describe it in a few written lines and answer the follow-up questions. You get a written scope within two working days.
Your own write-up works too. Send it to kent@3fold.me.
Send the link to the client or to your team. The one pager tells the same story on one page.
Our standard terms are at 3fold.me/terms. Ask us in writing about your firm’s own contract.
When the final payment clears you own the custom code we wrote for you and the documentation that goes with it. Software and services from other companies keep their own licenses and terms. Your data is always yours.
Our terms already cover confidentiality. What we learn about your business while doing this work stays between us. We use it only to do the work. Ask us in writing about a separate NDA.
Yes for operations work. A request that touches health data or unusual security needs gets a written scope review before any payment.
You get a written scope within two working days of a finished intake. A request that needs a closer look gets a written answer instead.
Each workflow gets its own written scope and price. Larger or additional builds are scoped separately. Nothing outside the agreed scope starts without a yes in writing.
