the problem
34%
of a solo consultant's week is admin, not code

You built a business doing what you love. But somewhere along the way, the business became a second job — drafting proposals at 11pm, chasing invoices on a Sunday, writing client updates that should write themselves.

You didn't get into consulting to become a part-time admin. But there was never a better option — until now.

how it works
01

Brief it once

Drop a project brief into Slack or email. Cadence picks it up, researches the client, and drafts a complete proposal — scope, timeline, pricing, terms — ready for your review.

02

It runs the cycle

Sends the proposal, follows up, handles revisions. When work starts, it generates invoices, tracks milestones, and sends weekly status updates to the client automatically.

03

Cash flows in

Cadence chases overdue invoices, flags payment risks, and keeps the client relationship warm — without you lifting a finger. You just approve and ship.

what it does

Proposal Agent

Drafts tailored SOWs from a project brief. Includes scope, deliverables, timeline, and your standard rate card. Sends and follows up autonomously.

Invoicing Agent

Generates invoices from milestones, sends on schedule, and chases overdue payments with polite, escalating reminders — no awkwardness.

Client Comms Agent

Sends weekly project digests, flags blockers, and handles routine questions. Clients feel informed. You stay in the loop without doing the loop.

Project Tracker

Maintains a living project timeline. Surfaces at-risk milestones, flags late tasks, and escalates blockers to you — before they become problems.

why this exists
"The bottleneck in every solo consulting business is the consultant."

You spent years learning to build great software. Now you're spending half your week sending emails, chasing payments, and writing status updates. That's not what you're good at. That's not what you want to do.

Cadence exists so you can do the work that matters — and let the business run itself.

async function runConsultingBusiness(you) {
  const cadence = new Agent({ outreach, proposals, invoicing, comms });
  while (you.coding()) {
    cadence.run();
  }
}

The consultant who builds once and ships forever wins.

Cadence is the infrastructure that makes solo consulting scalable. Not a tool you manage — a teammate that never sleeps, never drops the ball, and never needs a reminder.

You built Craig Earley Software. Now it runs itself.
