Built by Operators Who've Been in Your Chair

Fulcrux exists because we spent years building AI systems inside real companies—and saw how badly small businesses were being left behind.

Our Story

Where We Come From

Fulcrux started inside a real company with real operational problems.

Our founder, Matt Peterson, spent years as President of AgencyKPI, a data analytics company serving insurance agencies. Before that, he led product at Digital Turbine through a growth run from $350M to $8B market cap—building the data systems, automation pipelines, and AI-driven workflows that powered that scale. He's taken a venture-backed startup from zero through acquisition. He's built analytics platforms that hundreds of businesses relied on daily.

The pattern was always the same: the companies that won were the ones that automated the work that didn't need a human. Not with expensive enterprise tools—with smart, focused systems built around how the business actually operates.

But when Matt looked at small businesses—5-person agencies, 20-person firms, owner-operators wearing every hat—he saw the same problems he'd solved at scale, with none of the resources to fix them. The consultants were chasing seven-figure enterprise deals. The AI vendors were selling platforms that required a tech team to implement. Nobody was just building the thing for them.

That's why Fulcrux exists.

Our team brings experience building AI systems for both internal operations and external products—from data extraction and workflow automation to intelligent document processing and customer communication. We've implemented these systems inside companies, not from a distance. We know what breaks, what scales, and what actually saves time versus what just looks good in a demo.

We're not a software platform. We're not a chatbot vendor. We're the team that builds your AI agents, integrates them into your operations, and keeps them working as the technology evolves.

Values

What We Believe

Build first, prove it, then talk money.

We've sat in rooms where vendors pitched six-figure platforms that took nine months to deliver. We think that's broken. Your first agent is free. You pay after it's working — not before.

Stay current so you don't have to.

AI moves fast enough to make last quarter's solution obsolete. We monitor the landscape, evaluate new models, and upgrade your agents when it makes sense. You don't need to become an AI expert. That's our job.

Bring enterprise-grade thinking to businesses that actually need it.

We've built AI systems for companies with thousands of employees and companies with twelve. The principles are the same — the difference is that nobody was building them for the twelve-person shop. Until now.

See If We're the Right Fit

30 minutes. No pitch. We'll walk through your week, identify the highest-value automation, and tell you honestly whether we can help. If we can, your first agent is on us.
