## current-page

- **path:** /
- **title:** DH Studios — AI agents for operations
- **description:** DH Studios builds AI agents for operations: designed, built and integrated inside the systems teams already run, and a person approves every hand-off.

## who-for

- **audience:** [placeholder]

## see-it-run (five live drawings on the home sheet; the red step is the only human in the loop)

- **rule:** The red box is the only step with a person in it; every other step is an agent.
- **simulated:** Simulated runs · example items, not client data
- **tabs:** Intake · Quotes · Invoice to payment · Morning digest · Build loop
- **01 intake:** Every request read, tagged and routed before anyone logs in. · Ops lead approves
- **02 quote:** A quote request becomes a priced draft, waiting for the sales lead. · Sales lead signs
- **03 ap:** Invoice to payment: three agents, a vendor outside your walls, one signature. · Controller signs
- **04 digest:** The night's email and news, ranked and drafted by 6:30. · Owner signs
- **05 loop:** How this site was built: a contract, three agents, one signature. · DH Studios ships

## workflows (four; one drawing each, see /agents)

- **built-on:** Built on what the client already runs; integration is part of every build.
- **01 intake-and-triage:** Intake and triage · Every request read, tagged, matched and routed to its owner with the context attached.
- **02 drafting-and-routing:** Drafting and routing · Replies, quotes and work orders drafted from your templates and your data, then queued for a signature.
- **03 reporting-rollups:** Reporting rollups · Numbers from several systems become one summary, checked against last week, every figure with its source.
- **04 dashboards-and-integrations:** Dashboards and integrations · The figures people pull by hand, already current when leadership looks, written into the CRM, ERP or spreadsheet you already run.
- **01 rule:** Every request gets an owner. The agent never answers for them.
- **02 rule:** The agent drafts. A person signs before anything sends.
- **03 rule:** Every figure carries its source. No number without a baseline.
- **04 rule:** Built on the systems you run. No new tool to adopt.

## how-it-runs (six steps, left to right, one signature)

- **01 call:** 30 min, free; a yes, a no, or a smaller first step
- **02 drawing:** two weeks inside the operation; the one-page agent drawing
- **03 you-sign:** nothing ships without a signature
- **04 pilot:** one workflow, live on real work; running agent, run log, baseline
- **05 run:** monthly; operated, tuned, reported
- **06 expand:** the next sheet, fixed scope
- **capacity:** [N] pilot slots open for [quarter]
