A word from Ned Malki founder and CEO of Ottomato.ai

We found Ned's agency through Pickaxe’s website as an expert on the platform, and it quickly became clear that he was both knowledgeable and highly engaged. Our biggest challenge was fine-tuning all the settings and ensuring that ElektroAI functioned seamlessly on Pickaxe. Ned provided technical assistance and integration support, resulting in a more stable and reliable system.

I worked with Ned on building an Amazon Bot via Pickaxe, and I was genuinely impressed by both his attention to detail and his willingness to go the extra mile. He didn’t just deliver what was asked he took the time to understand the bigger picture and made sure the solution was as effective and seamless as possible. While my needs have since shifted, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to any business looking to integrate AI into their workflow. He’s sharp, reliable, and takes real pride in his work.

Business

I worked with Ottomato to build my tool, Mehan.ai, and the experience was excellent.

Ned and his team didn’t just focus on development. They were supportive, gave helpful suggestions, and even guided me through some key decisions.

They shared ideas, pointed out better ways to do things, and were always easy to work with.

If you're building something with Pickaxe and want a team that actually cares, I highly recommend them.

/Frequently Asked Questions FAQs

1. How much does it cost to build a custom AI solution?

The investment for a custom AI solution is tailored to each project's unique goals and complexity. The final cost depends on factors like the application's features, the complexity of the automation workflow, and the specific technologies required. We offer several engagement models to provide flexibility:

Monthly Retainers for ongoing development and support.
Hourly Rates for specific, well-defined tasks.
Fixed-Price Custom Quotes for large, end-to-end projects.
The best way to get an accurate price is to schedule a complimentary discovery call with our team so we can provide a detailed, custom quotation.

2. What is the difference between a Pickaxe app and a custom-coded AI application?

The primary difference is the balance between development speed and deep customization.

Pickaxe Apps are ideal for rapidly building and deploying durable, reliable AI tools with a powerful back-end. This is often the fastest way to get a functional solution to market.
Custom-Coded Applications are for projects that require a unique user interface (UI/UX), highly complex business logic, or enterprise-level scalability. This approach offers limitless flexibility and power.

3. Can you automate my business using Make.com or n8n?

Yes. We specialize in designing and deploying intelligent automation systems using both Make.com and internally hosted n8n instances. Our expertise lies in creating sophisticated "agentic workflows" that connect your existing software (like your CRM, email, and internal tools) to manage entire business processes autonomously.

4. What kind of AI tools can you build for a small or medium-sized business (SME)?

For SMEs, we focus on building practical AI tools that deliver immediate value and a strong return on investment. Common solutions include:

Intelligent Internal Tools to automate tasks like customer support routing, data entry, and custom report generation.
Customer-Facing AI Chatbots to qualify leads, answer frequently asked questions, and guide users on your website 24/7.
Custom Data Analysis Apps to analyze sales figures, customer feedback, or market trends for actionable insights.

5. How do I start a project with Ottomato.ai?

Our process is designed to be simple and ensure we are a great fit for your goals. It begins with an initial consultation, which can be a complimentary 30-minute Discovery Call or an exchange via our project inquiry form. From there, we work with you to define the project scope, provide a detailed proposal with a custom quotation, and schedule a kickoff meeting to begin development.
