We design, build, and deploy AI systems for Orange County businesses — mainly AI phone answering, automated review requests, lead follow-up sequences, and website chatbots. We are an implementation studio, not a software product. You get a working system connected to your existing tools, not a login to something you have to figure out yourself.

We price flat-fee per project rather than hourly, with a one-time build fee and a monthly fee for the underlying services and ongoing tuning. The number depends on how many systems you need, what tools you already run, and your call volume. We quote after a 30-minute call, once we understand the situation.

We scope deliberately to ship fast, because long implementations lose momentum and delay the point where you find out whether it works. The exact timeline depends on how many systems you need and how quickly we can get access to your tools.

Most don't notice. We custom-prompt each system in your business's voice and test it across hundreds of real scenarios before launch. That said, we build systems that are honest — if a caller directly asks, it won't pretend to be human, and it hands off to you when a conversation needs a person.

Our focus is Orange County — Ladera Ranch, Mission Viejo, Laguna Niguel, Laguna Beach, Dana Point, San Juan Capistrano, and San Clemente — because meeting clients in person is a real part of how we work. We'll consider remote engagements, but local clients get the better experience.

Mostly home services and contractors, real estate and mortgage teams, and professional services firms like law, accounting, and insurance. The common thread is a business losing leads because nobody can answer every call, or losing reviews because nobody remembers to ask.

We'll tell you. Some problems are process problems, and automating a broken workflow just makes it break faster. If that's what we see on the discovery call, we'll say so — it costs us a sale and saves you money you'd have regretted spending.

No. We handle the setup, integration, and ongoing maintenance. What you see is appointments appearing in your calendar, reviews arriving on your Google profile, and a monthly report. If you can read a text message, you can use what we build.

The ongoing side is month to month. Your accounts, data, and systems belong to you — we don't hold anything hostage. If it isn't producing value, you shouldn't be paying for it.

Arrowstone AI is a small studio, and you work directly with the person who builds your system — no account managers, no handoffs to an offshore team. Arrowstone AI is a registered DBA of Arrowstone LLC, a California limited liability company based in Ladera Ranch.
