Systems · Automations
Can you just connect these two things so I stop doing it by hand?
Usually, yes — and the fix is smaller than most people expect.
An automation is the smallest unit we build: one trigger and one action (Simple), or two tools finally talking to each other (Connected). Most businesses start here before they need a whole system — a form reply, a review thanked, an appointment reminder, a lead landing in the right place automatically.
What’s included.
Simple
One trigger, one action, one tool
A form reply with a booking link, a review thanked, appointment reminders, your Monday numbers.
$450 setup, $97 a month
Connected
Two tools talking
A new lead lands in your CRM, books a slot, and gets an instant reply — three steps, one automation.
$900 setup, $97 a month
Both: own it for setup + $500.

Aurorra’s research reader and two of Lyteworks’ own internal automations — all three already named in public/llms.txt’s “Built along the way.”
Aurorra’s research reader
A Connected automation: reads PubMed, files findings into the database.
Nightly infrastructure monitor
A Simple automation: watches our own infrastructure, reports by morning.
Lead research
A Connected automation: finds new leads, sorts and rates them, drafts the first message.
FAQ.
How is this different from Zapier or Make?
Those are tools you’d run yourself. We build the automation — you never open the tool. If it breaks, that’s on us, not something you troubleshoot.
What if I need more than one automation?
Several automations routed together, with a record that moves through stages, becomes a system — see the menu for where that line is.
Can I start small and add more later?
Yes — Simple and Connected are both on the menu on their own, any time.
Do you build custom ones, or just the two kinds listed?
Simple and Connected describe the shape, not a fixed catalog — what’s inside each one is built to your business.
