Solution Library

Your first input.
should be your final output.

You run something real. A trade, a shop, a craft. You don’t need more software — you need the software you already have to actually work the way you do.

The principle

Most operators re-enter the same information two or three times — jotted on paper, typed into a system, rewritten into a deliverable. We don’t automate your business. We make sure the first time you write something down is the last time.

How we work

Three beats. No pitch.

A short, honest process. If we can’t help, we’ll tell you — and hand you a roadmap so you can shop the work elsewhere.

1
Listen.

Free intro call. We figure out if there’s a real problem to solve — and whether a system change or a workflow change is the right answer. No pitch.

2
Decide.

We only take on work we believe in. If we can’t deliver real value, we’ll say so — and hand you a roadmap you can shop elsewhere at no cost.

3
Deliver.

We build it. Clean handoff, documented, yours to own. We’re not here to lock you into us — we’re here to leave you with something that works.

What we might build for you

Three real problems. Three worked examples.

Not a menu. Not a catalog. Actual patterns we’ve built or are building right now — so you can see how we think, not just what we sell.

Tradesman · Contractor

You quote jobs from the truck. You shouldn’t also run a warehouse in your head.

Problem

Materials tracking lives on crumpled receipts, a notes app, and a running guess. Half the time, you re-buy what’s already in the truck. The other half, you’re running back to the supply yard mid-job.

Approach

Snap a photo of the receipt. Voice-note what’s loaded, what’s used, what’s left. A simple backend logs it to a running truck inventory — and flags reorders before you run out.

Tools

Google Sheets · OCR service · Discord or Telegram for capture · Make.com for the glue · optional: barcode scanner

Outcome

Hours a week back. Fewer supply runs. And when it’s time to quote the next job, you already know what’s in the truck and what it cost.

Cafe · Brick & Mortar

Your shop runs on you remembering everything. It doesn’t have to.

Problem

Changing a price means updating the register, the website, the printed menu, and the specials board. Your spouse can’t run the shop without calling you six times a day — because the workflow lives in your head.

Approach

A lightweight phone layer on top of the register you already have. One tap updates price, menu, website visibility, and prints a fresh counter menu — and optionally drafts a social post and emails the regulars.

Tools

Square or Clover API · Google Sheets as control layer · Canva or Bannerbear for menu generation · Make.com for the glue · optional: email/SMS marketing integration

Outcome

Hours a week back. A shop that keeps running when the owner steps away. And the peace of mind that comes from knowing every surface tells the same story.

Creative · Solo Professional

You started this for the craft. Not to run your own back office.

Problem

Notes on paper. A voice memo on the phone. A half-finished draft in Docs. Another pass in the final deliverable. The same idea gets re-typed three or four times before a client ever sees it.

Approach

One capture point. One structured destination. Whatever you say, scribble, or snap — it lands in the shape your deliverable already expects. No re-entry. No wrangling.

Tools

Voice-to-text · Google Docs templates · Notion or Airtable · Make.com for routing · optional: AI-assisted drafting layer

Outcome

Back to the work you actually love. Less admin friction per client. And a system that scales as you take on more without drowning you in paperwork.

Try it yourself

Two blueprints. Free. Yours to build this weekend.

We believe in the work enough to give some of it away. If you build these yourself and they save you hours, great — that’s the point. If you want something bigger or more integrated, you know where to find us.

Blueprint 01

Voice-to-invoice.

Talk to your phone. A draft invoice lands in a Google Doc. Polish and send.

  1. Create a Discord server for yourself. Pin a voice-note channel.
  2. Set up a Google Drive folder named Invoices. Inside it, create a template Doc called Invoice-100 with your header, logo, and line-item structure.
  3. Connect Discord to Google Drive using Make.com (or Zapier). Trigger: new voice note. Action: transcribe via a speech-to-text service.
  4. Route the transcription into a new copy of Invoice-100, incremented to Invoice-101, with the fields auto-populated.
  5. You get a notification the draft is ready. Open, review, send.

You’ll spend a Saturday setting it up. You’ll save 2–4 hours every week thereafter.

Blueprint 02

Photo-to-expense log.

Snap a photo of any receipt. It logs itself in a spreadsheet with date, vendor, amount, and category.

  1. Create a Google Sheet called Expense Log with columns: Date, Vendor, Amount, Category, Image link.
  2. Set up a dedicated email address or a Drive folder for receipt uploads (e.g., receipts@yourdomain.com or a shared Drive folder).
  3. Connect an OCR service (Google Cloud Vision, AWS Textract, or a simpler tool like Veryfi) via Make.com.
  4. Trigger: new image received. Action: OCR extracts date, vendor, and total. Route results into the spreadsheet.
  5. At month end, the spreadsheet is already done. Hand it to your bookkeeper.

Works equally well for a contractor tracking job costs, a cafe reconciling supplier runs, or a creative tracking business expenses.

For corporate teams

Different scope. Different conversation.

The small-operator work above is deliberate — it’s where we see the most immediate time-back per dollar spent. But KENAZ also comes out of twenty years of enterprise consulting: large-scale migrations, integration architecture, compliance readiness, and cross-functional program leadership on Fortune 500 initiatives.
