IT consultancy & AI product studio · Toronto

Sensible IT. Useful AI.

We consult, integrate and build for companies who need their systems to actually work — and we ship our own products out of the problems we keep meeting twice.

We work inside your operation

And we build our own

Switchboard turns WhatsApp messages into routed work, Switchboard X adds email and an AI layer, Margin shows what survives the bills, and Den Server is a private home server on Home Assistant. Every one started as somebody's real Tuesday problem.

Enterprises buy IT in suites. Everyone else gets a free trial and a shrug.

A fifteen-person business has the same tangle of systems and the same volume of client conversation as a large one — with a fraction of the time to manage either. That gap is the whole reason Droid Minds exists.

Why we started
Services

What we do for clients

Five kinds of engagement. Most start with the second one and end somewhere useful.

01

Custom AI agents

Assistants that answer, qualify and route inside the channels your customers already use.

02

Automation consulting

We map where the hours actually go, then automate the two or three steps worth automating.

03

Data & integrations

Getting your tools to speak to each other — records, invoices, calendars, spreadsheets.

04

Web & app development

Internal tools and customer-facing products, built to be maintained by a small team.

05

Staff AI training

Practical sessions on using AI in the day, with your own documents and real cases.

How an engagement runs

Small steps, each one worth paying for

1

A call, free

Forty minutes on what is slow and what it costs. If AI is the wrong answer, we say so.

2

A one-page scope

The outcome, the fixed price, the date and what we need from you. No hourly surprises.

3

Build in the open

Weekly demos while we build, so nothing lands as a surprise at the end.

4

Hand it over

Training and documentation your team can act on — deliberately small systems that survive us.

In development

Every WhatsApp message, one calm queue

Our current build is Switchboard: WhatsApp messages become tickets, rules route them to the right desk, and anything unclear goes to a person instead of a guess. Switchboard X adds email and AI summaries and reply drafts on top. Pilot teams will onboard in small batches so we can sit with each one.

Switchboard conversation with a routed ticket (sample data)

Start a conversation

Consultancy question, Switchboard waitlist, or a Den Server — the same small team reads all of it and replies within two working days.

No demo gauntlet, no sales sequence. We reply personally within two working days.
