Find out where AI would actually pay off in your business
Answer a few quick questions, then pick a time to talk with Evan.
What kind of business do you run?
About 2 minutes. Then a call with Evan, plus a written roadmap if you qualify for the AI ROI Audit. No obligation to hire us.
What you walk away with
- A clear view of where AI would save your business the most time.
- If you qualify for the upgraded audit, a written roadmap within 48 hours: each opportunity with the hours it saves, what it costs to build and run, and the expected return.
- Yours to keep. Build it yourself or ask us for a proposal.

Know what to build first
You leave the call knowing where AI would pay off. If you qualify for the upgraded audit, your written roadmap follows within 48 hours, and it is yours whether you hire us or not.
Who this is for
A good fit
- You have customers and revenue.
- Repetitive work eats hours every week.
- You want to know where AI pays off before spending on it.
Not a fit
- You have no revenue yet. Demarly is built for that stage.
- You want a course or prompt templates instead of someone who builds.
Who you will work with
I’m Evan Baker, a software engineer and AI builder. Before Mantlet, I built and supported systems used by more than 50 organizations through Cloud303, an AWS consulting firm; Demarly, an AI software company; and an S&P 500 software company serving the public sector.
I kept meeting businesses that knew AI mattered but not what was worth building, so I started Mantlet to close that gap. I lead the strategy and architecture on every engagement and bring in additional engineers when a project needs them.
Questions
Is it free?
Yes. The audit costs nothing. If you qualify for the upgraded audit, neither does its written roadmap. There is no obligation to hire us afterward.
Do I have to hire you afterward?
No. Whatever we recommend is yours to use. Have your own team build it, give it to another engineer, or ask us for a proposal.
What if we are not using AI yet?
That is common. The call starts with how your business runs today, not with tools. We tell you where AI would realistically help and where it would not.
What happens on the call?
We learn how your business operates, find where AI could create value, prioritize the strongest opportunities, and estimate their impact. You leave knowing which AI projects are worth pursuing.
What about sensitive data?
Tell us what needs to stay private. If sensitive information is central to your business, we also look at whether running some of your AI on infrastructure you control would help, usually alongside cloud models for work that is not sensitive. If it would not help, we will tell you.
