AI + Business Automation

Your business shouldn't need this much manual work.

StarkByDesign connects the tools you already use, automates repetitive workflows, and builds custom software when off-the-shelf tools fall short.

The real cost

The expensive part isn't the software. It's the gaps between it.

Most operational problems happen between tools, people, and handoffs. That's where we build.

Flagship product

Starkby

AI phone coverage for the calls your team can't answer.

Problem

Missed, overflow, and after-hours calls were going to voicemail -- and voicemail converts to booked jobs at close to zero.

What we built

A configurable AI receptionist that answers on a business's existing number, qualifies the caller, books approved appointments against a real connected calendar, and escalates to a person when a call needs one.

How we work

We map the system first. Then we build it.

01

Find the bottleneck

Where time gets wasted, leads get lost, work gets duplicated, or people move information by hand.

02

Map the system

What should happen, which tools need to communicate, and where automation actually makes sense.

03

Build + test

We build the automation, software, and integrations, then test the edge cases before launch.

04

Launch + improve

We put it into production, measure what happens, and improve it as your business changes.

Why StarkByDesign

You work directly with the person building the system.

I'm Axel, founder of StarkByDesign. There isn't a sales handoff followed by a rotating project team -- the person helping you understand the problem is also the person responsible for building the solution.

FAQ

A few things people usually ask.

Do I need to replace the software I already use?

Usually not. Most projects start by connecting or improving the tools you already have. We only recommend replacing software when the existing system is actually the problem.

What kinds of businesses do you work with?

StarkByDesign works with businesses that have repetitive processes, disconnected systems, manual handoffs, or workflows that off-the-shelf software doesn't handle well.

What does a project cost?

It depends on the workflow and how much needs to be built. Tell us what's happening now and we'll tell you what we'd recommend before you commit to anything.

What's the difference between Starkby and StarkByDesign?

StarkByDesign builds custom automation, integrations, websites, and software. Starkby is our dedicated AI receptionist product for businesses that need better phone coverage.
