How can I create an AI Representative or Clone?
Answer: Create a lifelike digital clone of yourself, or design a custom AI representative built to your exact specifications. Perfect for television and web commercials, podcasts, product reviews, customer service, and any video content. Clone yourself or create the perfect brand spokesperson.
- Clone yourself or custom AI rep
- TV & web commercials
- Podcasts & reviews
- 24/7 customer engagement
Use Example
A Palm Desert business owner needed weekly video updates for their social media but couldn't find the time to film. We created their AI clone - now they type their weekly message, and their clone delivers it on camera in seconds. Same person, same voice, zero filming time. They've also used their clone to create product demo videos, customer testimonials responses, and even a TV commercial spot for local cable.
Perfect For
Creating commercials for TV and web without expensive video shoots. Recording podcasts or product reviews on demand. Business owners who need video content but don't have time. Anyone wanting consistent brand presence across all platforms.
What's Included
Option 1: Clone Yourself - We come to your location and handle everything. We set up professional recording devices, audio equipment, and direct your 2-3 minute recording to ensure the best result possible in the easiest way. The AI captures your voice, facial expressions, and mannerisms to create your digital twin. You just show up and be yourself - we handle all the technical details.
Option 2: Custom AI Representative - We design a completely custom AI person to your specifications - choose their appearance, voice tone, personality, and speaking style. Perfect for creating a brand spokesperson or character.
Production and Delivery - Once your clone or custom representative is created, it can be used repeatedly in all different content - and can even change clothing styles, backgrounds, and settings without ever refilming. We handle the production and editing of your content and deliver completed projects ready for use on TV, web, social media, or wherever you need them.
Common Questions
Can I create someone who isn't me? Absolutely! You can clone yourself OR we can create a custom AI representative with any appearance, voice, and personality you want.
How long does it take? For clones: 2-3 minutes of video footage, then 24 hours to process. For custom representatives: we design them based on your specifications, typically 2-3 days.

- Calendar scheduling automation
- Staff training programs
- Workflow automation
- Ongoing support
Use Example
A Palm Desert accounting firm was drowning in repetitive emails. We set up AI to handle common questions like "When are you open?" and "What documents do I need?" Now their staff focuses on actual accounting, not answering the same questions 20 times a day. It's like hiring an assistant who never takes a lunch break!
Perfect For
Coachella Valley small businesses doing repetitive tasks by hand. Growing companies in Indio, Palm Springs, and beyond that need to do more with the same staff. Anyone tired of copy-pasting the same information all day.
What's Included
We visit your business (yes, we come to you!) and watch what you do day-to-day. Then we find the repetitive stuff that's eating your time. We set up AI tools that handle it, train your team on how to use them, and stick around to make sure everything runs smoothly. Think of us as your tech translators.
Common Questions
Will this work for my business? Yes! We customize everything to exactly how you work, whether you're a shop, office, or service business.

How can AI help with my marketing?
Answer: AI-generated content, social media management, and marketing campaigns that actually convert. Modern marketing for the modern age.
Use Example
A local boutique owner in the valley was spending hours trying to come up with Instagram captions and Facebook posts. Now AI helps write engaging posts in minutes - she just reviews and clicks publish. Her social media presence went from "whenever I have time" to posting consistently, and her foot traffic increased noticeably!
Perfect For
Busy business owners who know they should post more but don't have time. Local shops wanting to reach more Coachella Valley customers. Anyone who feels lost with social media marketing.
What's Included
We set up AI tools that create social media posts, email campaigns, and ads based on your business. You tell it what you're promoting, and it helps write compelling copy. We show you how to use it, give you templates, and you're off! Still sounds like your business, just easier to create.
Common Questions
Will it sound like a robot wrote it? Not if you don't want it to! We train it to match your brand's voice.
Do I still control what gets posted? Absolutely. You approve everything before it goes out.
Can it help with my existing social media? Yes! Works with Instagram, Facebook, email, wherever you market.
