Iron River Technologies
Automation and AI systems for operators

Most consultants will write you a strategy. We build what the strategy says you need.

Iron River is the firm commercial GCs, MEP contractors, and home services operators call when they're done buying decks and ready for someone who ships. Data cleaned, workflows automated, decisions backed by numbers the team actually trusts.

The real problem

Most businesses don't have a technology problem; they have a clarity problem.

None of that gets fixed by buying another platform. It gets fixed by sitting down with the operator, mapping what actually happens, and rebuilding the parts that bleed margin.
01Data lives in too many places.
02Processes depend on someone remembering to do something.
03Decisions get made on gut feel because the numbers aren't trustworthy.
04Teams stay busy, but busy isn't the same as productive.
What we do

Three lines of work. Sequenced in the order that produces results.

We do the unglamorous work of building a solid foundation, then layer in automation and agentic workflows that turn information into action. Audit first. Automate second. Expand once both are working.

01
01  /  FOUNDATION

Data & CRM

Clean the foundation. Then build on it.

CRM rebuilds and contact data work on HubSpot, Salesforce, ServiceTitan, and Procore. Pipeline structures that match how work actually moves. Reporting the COO will read on Monday morning.

02
02  /  AUTOMATION

Workflow Automation

Automate the work that should never have been manual.

Document processing, executive email triage, and system integrations across CRM, ERP, field tools, and accounting. Built on Make.com, n8n, Zapier, and the Claude API.

03
03  /  ADVISORY

Advisory & Build

Senior judgment plus hands-on execution.

AI readiness, stack audits, custom dashboards, operating system design, and technical staff augmentation. The senior advisory the fractional firms offer, with execution attached.

How we work

Four steps. No mystery. No 60-page deck at the end.

01

Listen

A 30-minute call. Not a pitch. We ask what's actually broken, who's holding it together, and what you've already tried. By the end, we know whether we're the right fit. If we're not, we'll tell you.

02

Audit

Walk the systems with whoever uses them. The dispatcher, the PM, the CSR, the controller. A written findings report names what's working, what's broken, and what's worth fixing first.

03

Build

Done with you, not done to you. We build, you watch, your team learns. Every automation has an owner inside the company before we hand it off. If your team can't run it, it doesn't ship.

04

Stay

Once the foundation is solid, we layer in what's next. Monthly checkpoints, not retainer-by-default. You get more capability over time, not a bigger invoice for the same thing.

Who this is for

We're not the right fit for everyone. Here's the honest version.

Good fit

  • ✓Commercial GC or MEP contractor doing $20M to $100M
  • ✓Home services operator doing $3M to $15M with multiple locations or trucks
  • ✓Owner, GM, COO, or VP of Operations who's seen the pitch deck before
  • ✓Real budget for a real problem; not exploring whether AI is interesting
  • ✓Willingness to involve the people who do the actual work

Not a fit

  • ×Looking for a one-time slide deck or a strategy memo with no execution
  • ×Want a platform reseller; we don't take software commissions
  • ×Need a $500/month subscription; that's not the work we do
  • ×Won't make decisions until you've talked to seven other firms
  • ×Want AI to replace your operators; we build for the operators, not against them
Who runs this

An operator who builds.

Anthony Brandt founded Iron River after a career in construction and contract furniture; the kind of work where a missed deadline costs money you can count and a bad system costs money you can't. Iron River is run the same way. We do the work that has to happen first, and we stay on the line for the work that comes after.
