7 Layer Studio · Dayton & Springfield, Ohio
Custom code that talks straight to Gmail, Calendar, Drive, and Docs. No Zapier. No monthly software fees. You own it outright.
Need a full operations platform instead of custom code? Get all 15 business modules — CRM Pipelines, Unlimited Funnels, Touchscreen E-Sign, Broadcast Emails, and 500 Free Local Leads/Month — for $149/month. Plus, as a small business built for small businesses, you get a dedicated account manager to handle your onboarding and support directly (no waiting on community forums).
Someone fills out your form. A personalized reply goes out from your real business email in seconds — not whenever you get to it.
Close a job, and the invoice builds itself from your template, sends as a PDF, and keeps reminding them until it's paid.
Clients book against your real calendar availability. The event, the Meet link, and the reminders are all set automatically.
New client, new Drive folder — contracts, assets, deliverables — created and linked before you think to do it.
Timed follow-up sequences, and a review request that goes out at the right moment after the job is done.
Doing something else by hand? Describe the steps and I'll tell you what it takes to automate them. We also build custom web apps — dashboards, client portals, internal tools — for when the work needs a front end and not just a background process.
We'll read your website, work out what you're probably doing by hand, and email you a plan for automating it — usually inside a minute. Written and sent by a system, not by me. That is the whole pitch, so you may as well see it rather than take my word for it.
One email. No list, no newsletter, no follow-up sequence you have to escape — just the plan and a single check-in a couple of days later.
Every custom automation is built to your specifications for a one-time software fee. You own the code outright with zero monthly subscription fees from 7 Layer Studio. Third-party infrastructure (such as Twilio SMS or OpenAI APIs) is billed directly to your own accounts at cost.
New to custom automations? Test the waters with either high-impact starter system below for a discounted one-time build fee. Zero monthly software fees, no Zapier, and you own the code outright. Ready in 48 hours.
When an incoming call is unanswered or busy, custom code instantly texts the caller within 3 seconds so you save the lead before they call a competitor.
Automatically sends a friendly SMS review invite directly to your customer's phone after a job is completed, driving consistent 5-star Google reviews.
Get both Missed-Call Text-Back and Google Review Requests deployed together for your business.

She explained everything and guided me through it step by step. There wasn't one time I needed help that she didn't respond in real time. Vincent Valenti, VPV Galleries
Most small businesses pay hundreds or thousands of dollars every year in recurring "SaaS taxes" for tools like Zapier, Make, or bloated CRM suites. With 7 Layer Studio, you pay once for custom code built directly against Google APIs and standard webhooks. You own the code outright with zero monthly subscription fees from us.
Yes. When your project is delivered, you receive full ownership of the custom code, scripts, and documentation. Everything runs in your own accounts (such as Google Workspace, Twilio, or OpenAI) so there is zero platform lock-in.
Our published starting rates apply to small businesses with 1–10 employees. Pricing scales predictably for larger teams (11–50+ employees) to account for multi-user routing, permission management, and higher data volume.
Yes. Through our 50/50 SaaS Exit Plan, you put 50% down to start the build. On launch day, you cancel your old subscription tools (Zapier, CRMs, answering services) and pay off the remaining balance at whatever your monthly software bill already was. Your monthly cash outflow never increases, and once paid off, your ongoing software cost drops to $0 forever.
Yes. We configure intelligent call routing so your AI receptionist seamlessly answers either after-hours, on overflow when lines are busy, or 24/7 on your existing business number.
