    AI Implementation in Columbus, Ohio

    By Alex Cinovoj, Founder & CTO, TechTide AI. 13 years of mixed IT, last 2 focused on AI implementation.

    Plenty of teams in Columbus can build an AI demo. Far fewer can get one into production and keep it there. TechTide AI does the second part. We're a Columbus, Ohio AI-automation agency, and AI implementation is the core of what we do: we take an initiative that's stuck, half-built, undocumented, or quietly abandoned, and turn it into a system that runs, logs, and has a clear owner. We don't lead with the model. Roughly half of AI projects fail before production, and they fail at the org layer: nobody owns the workflow, the data access was never wired up, the handoffs were never designed. So our first move is always a Production Triage, a fixed $5,000, seven-day audit that finds the real failure point and tells you, honestly, whether a rescue is worth doing. If it is, a Workflow Rescue is a fixed-scope, twenty-one-day deployment for $25,000 to $40,000. You get a working system, not a roadmap. Proof over potential.

    Implementation that reaches production

    An implementation isn't done when the demo works. It's done when the system runs on its own, logs every action, and has a named owner inside your team. That's the bar we build to.

    How we implement, Triage first, then Rescue

    • Production Triage, $5,000, 7 days. Written audit. Real failure point. Go or no-go.
    • Workflow Rescue, $25,000 to $40,000, 21 days. Fixed-scope build to production, with logs and a runbook.
    • Fractional FDE. Ongoing embedded engineering when you need more than a one-shot ship.

    Where implementations break down (the org layer)

    ~50% of AI pilots fail at the org layer, not the tech layer. Ownership, data access, handoffs, change management. The Triage names it in writing before we quote a rescue.

    Our implementation stack

    Claude Code, Lovable, Supabase, n8n, MCP. Multi-provider across Claude, Gemini, and Codex so the model matches the job.

    Built for Columbus and Central Ohio

    We work with teams across Columbus and the surrounding suburbs: Dublin, Westerville, New Albany, Powell, Hilliard, Worthington, Upper Arlington, Grove City.

    Frequently asked

    What does AI implementation in Columbus cost?+

    $5,000 7-day Production Triage, then a fixed $25,000 to $40,000 21-day Workflow Rescue if warranted; no open-ended hourly.

    Can you finish an AI project another team started?+

    Yes, most of our work; the Triage tells us what's salvageable first.

    What does a finished implementation include?+

    A deployed system with logging, a defined owner, and docs to run it.

    Which tools?+

    Claude Code, Lovable, Supabase, n8n, MCP; multi-provider Claude/Gemini/Codex.
