Your best coaching, minus your calendar.
You hit the time ceiling: getting a member a result still requires you, personally. I build one AI tool that does a piece of that work, so your community gets unstuck without waiting on your calendar.

You're the bottleneck, and you can feel it.
Getting a member a result is what people pay you for. The trouble is it still runs through you, and there's only one of you.
You launched the community, the course, the membership. People joined. And now the work that gets them results piles up on your desk:
You could hire a support person, or you could build the part of the work that doesn't need to be you. I build one AI tool that does a real piece of your hands-on coaching, runs where your members already are, and holds up when you're not watching. That's the gap I fill.
Build one tool that gets a member a result without you.
I turn a piece of your by-hand coaching into a tool members run themselves. It starts with a short, fixed-fee sprint, so you feel the value before any longer commitment.
Self-Serve Tool Sprint
Pick the one piece of your hands-on work that eats the most time, and turn it into a tool your members run themselves.
- Build a member's plan from your method, automatically
- Grade their work against your framework and route the next step
- Runs inside Skool, Circle, or Kajabi, where your people already are
- Ships with a plain-English how-to and handles errors
- A working tool at the end, tested on a real non-technical user
Build the backlog
One tool frees your time and shows you the next three worth building.
- Turn more of your by-hand coaching into tools members run themselves
- Keep the tools running and incrementally improving them
- Add short lessons and demo workspaces so members actually adopt them
- Keep it self-serve, so you stay out of the loop
Fees depend on scope. We size it together on the first call.
I build this for a living, then keep it running.
The tools I'd build for your community, and the reliability habits that keep them from breaking on you.
I build the AI at Career Systems, a coaching and digital-product business. My whole job is turning coaching systems into AI tools members run themselves: rewriting a resume into a standard format, generating and grading outreach messages, and a Chrome plugin that tracks a member's job search automatically.
Coaching that used to need a 1:1 call now runs self-serve, so more members get a result without waiting on a calendar.
Built an AI platform processing $100M+ in insurance claims and made its multi-minute AI jobs trustworthy with durable orchestration: retries, idempotency, recovery. The reason it matters to you: the tools I build for your members don't fail silently.
95% success on AI jobs that used to fail in the dark.
Built and maintained the AWS SSO Control Plane service across 2,500 hosts at 99.9%+ uptime, with staged rollouts and monitoring. The habits from hyperscale are the same ones that keep a member-facing tool from falling over the week you go on vacation.
The tool still works on a Sunday when you're offline.
Barton Holdridge
I'm a software engineer with 10+ years building cloud-native AI and backend systems, from Fortune 500 scale at Amazon AWS to a 0-to-1 AI platform at TurboClaim. I also build the AI at Career Systems, so I work with coaches and communities every day.
What I want to be known for: making AI genuinely useful for people who aren't technical. Real tools a busy person can use on Monday and see a result by Friday. Not demos that look cool and do nothing.
I take a capped number of fractional engagements so the work stays deep. If getting your members a result still requires you personally, that's my zone.
What would you build if you weren't the bottleneck?
Book a 30-minute call. Tell me where your members get stuck waiting on you. If AI can take that off your plate, I'll show you how. If it can't, I'll tell you that too.
