We replace overpriced SaaS subscriptions with custom-built tools your team actually uses — and build solutions for problems no off-the-shelf product was ever designed to solve. One-time build fee. You own everything.
The Problem
The quoting tool doesn't talk to the stock system. The SOPs live in a binder nobody reads. Every tool has its own login, its own subscription, its own problems. Sound familiar?
$800/month for a quoting tool. $500/month for documentation. $300/month for inventory. It adds up to thousands — for software that wasn't built for your workflow.
Your stock system doesn't feed into quoting. Your SOPs don't link to parts. Every tool is an island. Your team wastes hours copying data between systems.
Off-the-shelf software was designed for the average company. You're not average. You need tools that match how your specific shop actually operates.
That bottleneck your team works around every day? The manual process someone built an Excel sheet for five years ago? No SaaS company will ever build a product for that. It's too niche. But we can — in days.
The Solution
The HUB is a unified platform that hosts every tool your team needs — one login, one interface, one shared database. Every deployment is forked and customized for your specific workflow, branding, and operations. It's not one-size-fits-all. It's built for you.
These are tools we've already built and deployed. But every client is different — if you need something that doesn't exist here, we'll build it.
Video in, step-by-step instructions out. Beautiful documents in minutes. Built in less than a week.
Replaces ~$10K+/yr in software
Barcode scanner integration, AI-powered auto-replenishment, bin tracking. From spreadsheet to self-managing inventory in 3 days.
No more spreadsheet inventory
Long-term planning calendar with auto-notifications and Outlook sync. Built in a single day.
Replaced Excel scheduling sheets
Every deployment is custom. Your HUB gets your branding, your tool selection, your configurations. It's not a template. It's software built around the way your specific shop operates.
How It Works
No massive upfront commitment. No ripping out your existing systems overnight. We start with what hurts most and build from there.
We learn your pain points, your workflow, and what software you're currently overpaying for.
Custom tools, your branding, your workflow logic. Every feature is built to match how your team actually works.
Live in your shop. Your team trained on it. Real support from people who understand your industry.
Add tools as you need them. Your HUB evolves with your business — no big-bang migrations.
We use AI-assisted development to build in weeks what used to take months. The tools you get aren't AI gimmicks — they're real, solid software built for your workflow. AI just lets us build faster and pass the savings to you.
Who Builds This
S.T.A.I. was started by a robotics technician who programs cobots, machines fixtures, and debugs automation cells for a living. He saw the same problem in every shop he worked in: expensive software that didn't fit, manual processes that should be automated, and good operators wasting time on bad tools.
So he built something better. First for his own shop. Then for others.
He partnered with a growth strategist who understood how to bring these tools to market — not as generic products, but as custom solutions scoped to each client's real problems.
This isn't software designed by people who've never touched a machine. It's built by someone who lives your problems every day.
Real Results
"We were paying over $10K a year for documentation software that nobody on the floor actually used. The SOP platform they built us paid for itself in two months. The guys actually pull it up on the shop tablets now."
Mike Landry
Owner, Precision Cobot Systems
"I was skeptical — we'd been burned by 'custom software' before. But this was different. It was built around how we actually work, not how someone assumed we work. Our stock tracking alone saves us hours every week."
Sarah Ouellet
Operations Manager, NorthForge Automation
"From first conversation to live deployment was about three weeks. I've waited longer for a vendor to return a quote. The tool works, the team uses it, and the monthly cost is nothing compared to what we were paying."
Dave Carruthers
GM, Apex Integration Group
Pricing
No recurring license fees that climb every year. A one-time build + small monthly for hosting. Compare that to the $10K+ per year you're spending now on software that doesn't fit. Once you see what's possible, you'll wonder why you waited.
Starter HUB
+ $200/month hosting & maintenance
Replaces ~$2K–$6K/yr in subscriptions
Growth HUB
+ $350/month hosting & maintenance
Replaces ~$6K–$12K/yr in subscriptions
Full HUB
+ $500/month hosting & maintenance
Replaces ~$10K–$20K/yr in subscriptions
Every project is scoped to your needs. These are starting points, not fixed packages. Let's talk about what makes sense for your shop.
Your current software: $10K+ per year. Your HUB: a fraction of the cost, built specifically for you, and it actually gets used. Most clients break even within the first year — then it's pure savings.
Every HUB has a built-in feedback tool. Your team sees something that wastes their time — they flag it. We build the fix. Your tool ecosystem evolves based on real problems, not feature roadmaps written by people who've never set foot in your shop.
Get Started
No sales pitch. No demo of features you don't need. Just a conversation about what's broken in your shop and whether we can build something better.
