Questions, answered plainly.
The things people ask before they talk to Joshua. If yours isn't here, the fastest answer is five minutes with Joshua AI.
What does Strahes actually build?
Joshua finds the money your business is losing, then builds the custom AI systems that get it back. Operational systems that take over the repetitive work running your company, engineered from the ground up and built for your business alone. He is a strategist, a marketer, and an engineer in one person, not a reseller of off-the-shelf tools.
How is this different from ChatGPT or a no-code tool like Zapier?
Those are fine for simple, light tasks. But when the work is complex, repetitive, and measurable in dollars, and it is actually running your operations, you need a real system built around how your business works. That gets engineered, not glued together, and it does not break as you grow.
Do I own what you build?
You have unlimited control, and your data is yours forever. Every system is built for your business alone and engineered from the ground up. Joshua hosts it, maintains it, and keeps it sharp for one flat monthly fee, so there are no per-seat licenses and no rented tools bolted together. And if you ever walk away, your data walks with you.
What does it cost?
Pricing depends entirely on the scope of the problem, so there is no list price. That is exactly what the Sit-Down is for. Joshua learns what is going on, tells you in plain words whether he can help, and scopes it from there. No pitch, no pressure.
How long does it take?
It depends on the build, but Joshua moves fast. One client had a full custom platform engineered, branded, and selling in under 40 days, after another team had spent six months on it with nothing to show. The first engagement focuses on finding the money your business is losing and plugging the biggest leaks.
What is the process?
The Implementer Method: a Sit-Down, which is a 30-minute discovery conversation, then a clear framework with no hidden costs, then Joshua builds and implements the system. You work directly with the person engineering it, with no account managers in between.
Do I need an AI strategy before we start?
No. You bring the problem. Joshua spent twenty years inside businesses like yours before he ever built AI, so he starts by understanding your operations, then engineers what actually fits.
Who is this for?
Serious companies with work that is complex, repetitive, and measurable in dollars. Joshua qualifies on the problem, not your headcount. If a simple tool would solve it, he will tell you that and point you toward one.
What about my data and security?
Joshua runs his own business on the same kind of systems he builds for clients. If he would not trust it with his own operations, he will not sell it to you. The specifics for your build get covered in the Sit-Down.
How do I get started?
Spend five minutes with Joshua AI, the agent on this site. Tell it what you're after... new revenue, better margins, time back... or what feels off. You don't need to know where the money is. That's Joshua's job. It figures out whether this is a fit and, if it is, books a Sit-Down with Joshua right there.
