Automation, wired into how you work

Every system is designed, built, and supported in-house — right here in Southern California.

The problem

Your Business Is Leaking Revenue.
Here's How We Fix It.

Missed Leads

Calls go unanswered. Forms get ignored. Leads vanish.

Our fix — We deploy AI phone agents and automated follow-ups that respond instantly, 24/7.

Manual Chaos

You're buried in spreadsheets, manual emails, and repetitive tasks.

Our fix — We build automation pipelines that handle it all: quotes, scheduling, invoicing, reporting.

No Online Presence

Customers can't find you. Your competitors show up first.

Our fix — We create AI-powered content engines that keep your brand visible and relevant.

Every plan includes a professional MariX website as your foundation. Already have a website? We can integrate our automations into your existing site, subject to a quick assessment that it meets our technical standards — otherwise we'll build you the new standard. Setup is a one-time fee; monthly covers management, monitoring & support (6-month minimum term). Your domain is registered in your name and handled for you. The software tools that power your automations are owned by you and billed directly by each provider — a modest monthly cost we set up and walk you through during onboarding.

Not sure which package fits? Book a free 30-minute AI audit and we'll map out exactly what your business needs.

The MariX Website

The MariX Website — The New Standard

Most small-business websites just sit there. Yours works. Every MariX site is hand-built to be fast, secure, and to actively capture leads, book calls, and run your automations — the same system running this very page.

Built to capture, not just display

Lead forms, booking, and follow-up wired in from day one, so visitors become customers.

Fast & secure by default

Hand-coded for speed, with SSL and security built in. No bloated templates, no plugins to break.

Automation-ready

Your site isn't a dead end; it's the front door to your entire AI system.

Already have a site?

We can integrate into it (subject to assessment) or build you the new standard.

Every plan starts with a MariX website. See plans →

About

Meet the Founder

I'm Rich, the founder of MariX AI. I build AI automation systems that help local businesses capture more leads, save time, and grow — without hiring more staff or learning complex software.

Every system I build uses the same tools I run my own business on. That means I don't just sell automation — I live it. When something breaks at 2am, I know because my own alerts fire too.

Based in Southern California, I work directly with every client. No account managers. No outsourced teams. Just hands-on AI engineering from someone who understands small business.

FAQ

Questions? We've Got Answers.

We specialize in small local businesses — roofers, contractors, salons, dental offices, real estate agents, and other service-based businesses in Southern California. If you have customers and processes, we can automate them.
A Launch website goes live in about 1 week. Starter packages take about 1–2 weeks. Growth packages run 2–3 weeks. Elite builds take 3–5 weeks. We move fast because our blueprints are proven.
Not at all. We handle everything — building, deploying, and maintaining your systems. We train you on the dashboards and tools you'll interact with, and we're always a call or message away.
Hosting, monitoring, API costs (Groq, Make.com, Airtable), minor updates and tweaks, email support, and monthly performance reports. Basically, everything it takes to keep your systems running smoothly.
Absolutely. Many clients start with Launch or Starter and upgrade to Growth or Elite as they see results. Your existing website and automations carry over — we just build on top of them.
Great — in most cases we can integrate our automations into your existing site. After a quick technical check to make sure it meets our standards, our chatbots, contact forms, and booking widgets plug right into platforms like WordPress, Squarespace, or Wix. If your current site isn't a good fit, we'll build you the new standard instead.
