Your busywork, on autopilot.
A lead comes in, a quote goes out, a job gets finished. We connect the next step so it happens on its own: you get the text, the customer gets the email, and nothing slips through.

Want to skip the reading and just describe the problem?
Pick `I want to automate something` in the intake shortcut — you'll be on Step 7 in a minute and on a discovery call before the day is out.
What we build.
Eight common shapes our automation work takes. Most projects are a combination — we'll show you what fits on the discovery call.
Multi-system integrations
Stitch CRM, billing, scheduling, support, and storage so data flows without anyone copy-pasting.
Document parsing
Extract structured fields from PDFs, scans, and emails — invoices, contracts, intake forms, compliance docs.
LLM-powered workflows
Use AI where it earns its keep: categorize tickets, summarize long threads, draft replies, route by intent.
Real-time notifications
SMS / email / Slack alerts when something happens — a payment fails, a lead arrives, an SLA slips.
Internal dashboards
A single screen the team actually opens — bookings, revenue, pipeline, on-call status, whatever matters.
Scheduled tasks
Daily / weekly / monthly jobs that just run — reports, exports, reminders, follow-ups.
Webhooks + custom APIs
Connect anything to anything. We build the API connector when the off-the-shelf one is missing.
Database + storage workflows
Move data between Postgres, Airtable, Google Sheets, S3, Drive — with audit trails and retry logic.
What is business automation?
Business automation means letting software do the repeat steps your team does by hand. A form comes in, and the contact lands in your CRM, the right person gets a text, and a follow-up email goes out. An invoice arrives as a PDF, and its numbers go into your books. Nobody copies and pastes. Nothing slips through.
For a small business, the win is time and fewer mistakes. You keep the tools you already pay for. We connect them, add the missing logic, and hand you a workflow you can see and own.
Automations we run in our own business
We use the same approach every day at CipherForces. Three real examples:
- Quotes by text. When a quote is ready, our system drafts a text message with a link the customer can open to review and approve it. A person approves the text before it is sent.
- Review requests. When a job is done, the system drafts a short text asking for a Google review, with our review link filled in. A person checks it before it goes out.
- Order and form intake. Print orders arrive in one place with the design files attached, and our event sign-up forms post into an n8n workflow that logs each one to a sheet.
We do not publish hours-saved numbers we have not measured. On the call, we look at your process and tell you honestly whether automating it is worth it.
Three shapes from past builds.
These are stylized examples — names and specifics removed to protect client detail. Anchored real outcomes we'll talk through on the call.
Booking → CRM → email sequence
New booking lands in the calendar → contact gets created in CRM → a tagged email sequence kicks off based on what they booked.
Document parsing for compliance
Drop a PDF in a folder → key fields parsed → flagged for review if anything is missing → archived with audit trail.
Marketing ops dashboard
Replaces 4 spreadsheets and 3 tabs. Pulls campaign data, attributes leads, surfaces what to do next.
Four steps, no surprises.
Free discovery call (15 min)
We walk through what you do today and where the friction is. No prep needed — just be ready to describe a process out loud.
Optional paid audit
For complex workflows we sometimes recommend a deeper paid audit before quoting — process map, system inventory, recommended tooling. Skipped on most projects.
Build quote
Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed timeline. You know what gets built, on what platform, by when, and what it costs.
Build, ship, hand-over
We build, test, document, and either hand you the keys or stay on as the host — your call. Post-launch fix window included.
Stack we reach for first
We default to n8n self-hosted so you own the workflows and the bill stays flat. We use Make or Zapier when a project's volume + integrations make them cheaper. Custom code for the bits no platform handles.
- n8n (self-hosted, our default)
- Make.com
- Zapier
- Custom Python / TypeScript scripts
- OpenAI / Anthropic LLMs (when AI earns its keep)
- Airtable, Postgres, Google Sheets
- Stripe, Calendly, Slack, Notion
- Twilio (SMS/voice), Resend (email)
Common questions.
How does pricing work?
Every automation is fully custom — different systems, different volumes, different edge cases. We don't post starting prices because anything we'd publish would be wrong for half the projects. We scope on a discovery call (15 min, free) and quote after.
Is this a monthly subscription?
No. You pay a fixed one-time build fee per automation. We build it, test it, hand it over. You only pay ongoing costs for the platforms themselves (n8n hosting, Zapier, OpenAI API, etc.) — billed direct to you so there's no markup.
What platforms do you work with?
n8n (self-hosted by default), Make.com, Zapier, Google Workspace, Airtable, Stripe, Calendly, Slack, Notion, HubSpot, Salesforce, and most modern APIs. We pick the tool that fits the job, not the other way around.
How long does a build take?
Small workflows: 1–2 weeks. Multi-system integrations: 2–4 weeks. Complex custom builds with LLM-powered logic: 4–8 weeks. We give you a clear schedule with the quote.
What if something breaks after launch?
Every build comes with a post-launch fix window — 14, 30, or 60 days depending on the build complexity. If something breaks because of our work, we fix it at no charge. After the window, ongoing care is hourly or via a Care Package.
Do I own the automation?
Yes. We hand over the code, the workflow definitions, and the docs. If you'd rather we host and maintain it for you, that's a separate ongoing arrangement — quoted with the build.
Who you work with
You talk to Daniel, the founder. Not an account manager.
Daniel started LuxPrinting, a print shop, in 2021. In 2024 it grew into CipherForces and took on websites, software and automation. He builds the tech himself, and his design team builds the brand. Daniel designs and builds every automation himself and watches it after launch.
Many of our Google reviews mention Daniel by name, and the older ones say LuxPrinting.
- Based in Glendale, CA, working across Los Angeles
