AI automation in Florida

AI automation for Florida businesses. Built in, then kept running.

We build AI into how Florida businesses actually run, in any city or town in Florida, then stay on to keep it running, checked by people, and under your control.

Where we work in Florida

Anywhere in Florida.

We work with Florida businesses remotely, from first call to launch, and we're glad to come on site when a project calls for it. Krastor is based in Clyde, NC. The places below are just where we hear from most.

Jacksonville

Logistics and fintech.

Tampa Bay

Financial services.

Orlando

Tourism and simulation and defense tech.

Miami

Trade with Latin America and finance.

Fort Lauderdale & Palm Beach

Marine businesses and wealth management.

Tallahassee

State government and the businesses that serve it.

Those are just the places we hear from most. A small town, a rural county, or a suburb nobody's heard of: if your business is in Florida, we work with you.

What we build here

The slow spots are the same in every Florida business.

Whatever you run, the drag looks alike: follow-up that slips, quotes that take days, and numbers that live in three places. Here's what we build to fix it. A person approves anything that matters.

01

The diagnostic and the Blueprint

We map how your business actually runs, find the work that's costing you the most, and put a dollar figure on it. The Krastor Blueprint is the written plan that comes out of it: what to build, in what order, and what it should earn you, for a fixed fee starting at $1,500. It's yours to keep whether we build it or someone else does.
02

Systems and data foundation

Clean data and connected systems: one CRM instead of three, records that match across your tools, and integrations between the systems you already pay for. You can't put AI on top of a mess, so we fix the foundation first when it needs fixing.
03

AI inside your team's work

AI working inside the tools your people already use: drafting, summarizing, answering questions from your own company knowledge, and pulling reports, so your team spends its hours on judgment calls instead of busywork.
04

Agents that handle whole tasks

Agents that do whole jobs, not just answer questions: answering calls and inquiries, intake and booking, follow-up that doesn't slip, quotes and proposals drafted in hours, documents processed, invoices chased, scheduling handled, meeting notes turned into tasks, and reporting pulled together. A person approves the calls that matter.
05

Custom software and integrations

Portals, dashboards, configurators, and the connections between the systems you already pay for, built when the fix needs something that doesn't exist yet. Recent work includes a live product configurator for a custom builder, launched with nine models and real-time pricing.
06

Private and on-premise AI

AI that runs on hardware you own, inside your building, for work that's too sensitive for public AI tools. Your data never leaves your walls. Built for firms with strict privacy or compliance rules.
07

AI spend and token governance

A clear view of what your business spends on AI tools and tokens, where it's wasted, and limits that keep it in check. Model-agnostic, so you can switch AI models later without a rebuild.
08

Stay: we run what we built

We stay on to keep your systems running and improving, check the work, and report what it earned you in dollars. We own the architecture. You own the tools. If you ever stop, your tools and accounts stay with you.

Not limited to this list. Every engagement starts by assessing what your business actually needs, and we build whatever it requires.

Examples

Where we see the most repeat work in Florida.

These aren't a limit. They're where the same tasks come up most often. If your industry isn't listed, we can still help.

Hospitality & tourism

Florida's largest small-business employer. Booking and inquiry follow-up at any hour, and reporting across properties.

Construction

Same-day quotes, job costing tied to your books, and automatic follow-up on open bids.

Professional services

Intake, document drafting, and client follow-up, with a person approving what goes out.

Trade & exporters

Small firms make 56.3% of Florida's goods exports by value. Order paperwork, status updates, and customer follow-up across time zones.

How it works

Start. Build. Stay.

01

Start

The readiness assessment: a few questions, and your score is emailed to you. Then we find the work that's costing you the most and put a dollar figure on it.

02

Build

Automation, AI agents, and connected systems that take that work over. A person approves the calls that matter.

03

Stay

A monthly retainer: we monitor, fix, and improve what we built, and keep AI costs, data, and access under your control.

Rules to know

AI and data rules in Florida.

Florida Digital Bill of Rights (in effect July 1, 2024): a privacy law that applies to very large companies (over $1 billion in revenue plus other conditions), so it generally doesn't apply to businesses our size.

A proposed Florida "AI Bill of Rights" (SB 482) passed the Senate in 2026 but not the House, so it is not law.

This is a plain-English summary, not legal advice.

Free help in Florida

Programs worth knowing.

FloridaMakes

Florida's manufacturing extension partnership: operations and technology help for manufacturers.

Florida SBDC Network

Free consulting for Florida small businesses.

Questions

Straight answers.

Do you work with Florida businesses?

Yes, from Jacksonville and Tallahassee down to Tampa Bay, Orlando and Miami. We work with Florida businesses remotely, from first call to launch, and we're glad to come on site when a project calls for it. Krastor is based in Clyde, NC.

Do Florida's privacy laws affect my business?

The Florida Digital Bill of Rights applies to companies with more than $1 billion in revenue, so it generally doesn't apply to businesses our size. The proposed AI Bill of Rights did not become law. This isn't legal advice.

What size business do you work with?

Roughly 11 to 500 employees.

How do we start?

With the readiness assessment. It's a few questions, and your score is emailed to you with the one gap worth fixing first.

Do you only work with certain industries?

No. We work with businesses of roughly 11 to 500 employees in any industry. The examples on this page are where we see the most repeat work in Florida, not a limit on who we help.
