Because you don't own anything. You rent their platform, live under their feature decisions, and the moment you stop paying the monthly fee your data, workflows, and automations disappear. This is a one-time purchase — you get the source, the mobile apps, and full control. No per-seat fees, no lock-in, no surprise pricing increases.

You can try. A realistic estimate: 3–6 months of full-time prompt engineering to get a multi-tenant CRM with email routing, SMS, voice, campaigns, AI compose, pipeline kanban, form builder, mobile apps, and a deployment pipeline. At a contractor rate of $100/hr that's $48,000–$96,000 before you've fixed a single production bug. This ships all of that — battle-tested — for a fraction of one month of that effort.

That's exactly what the AI Developer solves. Every install ships with a built-in tool that's fully trained on the codebase. Describe the feature you need in plain English, paste the output into Claude Code, and it's built — to the same conventions as the rest of the repo. No dev team, no tickets, no waiting. If you can explain it, you can have it.

Neither. You're getting a standalone, full-stack web application: PHP 7.4 backend, MySQL 8 database, Docker deployment stack, nginx reverse proxy, plus React Native companion apps that build to both iOS and Android. It's not a theme or a plugin — it's the entire working CRM that runs on your own server, behind your own domain, with your own branding.

No. You own the source code outright. It runs on your infrastructure, not ours. There's no license server to phone home to, no API key that expires, no dependency on us staying in business. The AI Developer panel, the deployment scripts, the docs — they all live inside your copy. You're self-sufficient from the moment you receive the handoff.

PHP 7.4 is the most deployed server-side language on the planet. It runs WordPress, Laravel, and most of the web's CRM infrastructure. The codebase is stable, well-documented, and every hosting provider on earth supports it out of the box. We chose boring on purpose — you'll never struggle to find a developer who can read this code, and the AI Developer is even better at PHP than most humans.

No Laravel update breaking your build at 2 AM. Pure PHP with a thin in-house framework that doesn't change underneath you. No Composer dependency hell, no npm package nightmares, no deprecation cycles to chase. The codebase you clone today behaves the same way in three years. This is the boring choice on purpose — boring is what survives in production for years without rewrites, and it's what makes AI-assisted extension reliable, because the patterns are stable.

Yes — we've done the engineering analysis. The repo includes a full PHP 8 upgrade audit (PHP8_UPGRADE_AUDIT.md) that documents what changes are needed, which files they live in, and what each step takes. Summary: target PHP 8.3, the codebase is in good shape (modern namespaces, type hints, clean DB layer, no PHP4 cruft), the hard blockers are minimal (2 create_function calls and 63 strftime calls), and the load-bearing risk is patching Smarty 2.6.26 for PHP 8 compatibility. The mechanical pass — driven by parallel AI sessions across file slices, the 4 Smarty copies, and independent modules — is about a week of active work. Calendar time is dominated by a 1–2 week staging dogfood window, which exists specifically because there's no automated test coverage. Total: 2–4 weeks calendar for a careful migration; ~1.5 weeks if you skip staging and accept the regression risk.

Every table that holds tenant data has an id_company column. All queries are scoped to the current company — there's no shared state between tenants. Super-admins can switch context between companies, but regular users only ever see their own company's data. This isolation is enforced at the ORM layer, not just the UI.

Anywhere. The reference deployment is DigitalOcean because it's simple and cheap ($48/mo for a single-tenant droplet), but the Docker stack runs on any Ubuntu box — AWS, Hetzner, Linode, bare metal, your closet. The rebuild script handles provisioning, but if you want to run it on your own infra the Docker compose file is the only dependency.

SendGrid and Resend for outbound email, EmailListVerify for address validation, Nylas for inbox sync, Twilio for SMS and voice, ElevenLabs for AI voice generation, Anthropic Claude for AI compose and the developer tools, Stripe for payments, Calendly for scheduling, Google Places for address lookup, and Sphinx/Manticore for full-text search across millions of records. Each integration has a working wrapper in the codebase — no SDK to install, just fill in the API key.

Yes. Full React Native source code — one codebase that builds to both iOS and Android. Uses the same REST endpoints as the web app. Rebrand it, publish to your own App Store / Play Store accounts, and ship it to your clients.

It's been running live across multiple agencies and industries for years. The deployment scripts, the email routing, the SMS pipeline, the cron jobs — all battle-tested on real data, real users, real SendGrid/Twilio accounts. We include a 30-day warranty because we're confident in what we're shipping, and the AI Developer gives you full transparency into every table, every file, every convention in the repo.

If a bug in the code we delivered surfaces within 30 days of your download, we fix it — free. That covers platform bugs in the delivered source. It does not cover new features you build, third-party API changes after delivery, install issues caused by your environment, or upstream updates you apply yourself. Aggregate liability is capped at the purchase price actually paid.

A senior full-stack developer costs $80–$150/hr. This codebase represents roughly 2,000–3,000 hours of work across backend, frontend, mobile, deployment, and integrations. At $100/hr that's $200,000–$300,000 — not counting project management, QA, or the months of production bug-fixing that you skip entirely. This is $5000.

No catch. The reason this is possible at $5000 is that AI removed the dev-team tax that made owning software impractical for operators. The reason I'm willing to sell at $5000 is that I've shifted full-time to my AI consulting firm and would rather hand the source to operators who'll actually run it than maintain enterprise contracts I won't be available to support. What's not included at $5000 is hand-installation and ongoing support; those are available separately as hire blocks and managed hosting if you want them. What's included: the full source, the install documentation (designed to be executed by an AI coding agent), the 145M B2B database, the AI Developer agent, native mobile app source, and a 30-day code warranty.

Only hosting — roughly $48/mo for a DigitalOcean droplet (single-tenant) or $96/mo for a two-server setup with a dedicated search node. You'll also pay for your own SendGrid, Twilio, and Nylas usage at their published rates (all have generous free tiers). There are no per-seat fees, no monthly platform fees, and no recurring charges from us.

Within 24 hours of Stripe confirming payment, you receive two things: (1) a GitHub invite to our private CRM repository — clone it locally and you're working in the same source we ship; (2) a Google Drive folder with the full bundle: source code, database dump, install scripts, MD documentation, the onboarding wizard PDF, and the AI Developer agent files. The repo is your working copy; the Drive folder is a snapshot you can archive locally.

Once installed, the CRM ships with a built-in onboarding wizard that walks you step-by-step through every service-account setup — SendGrid, Twilio, Nylas, Anthropic, Stripe, Google Places, and the rest. You also get the same playbook as a PDF in the repo for reference. No guessing which key goes where, no scavenging through docs.

At the $5000 Source tier, installation is self-serve. The included install documentation is written specifically to be executed end-to-end by an AI coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.). Hand it the doc and a fresh server, and the agent provisions, configures, and verifies the deployment. Most installs complete in under an hour with zero manual intervention. If you'd rather we install it for you, the Source + Install tier on the pricing page adds $299 for hands-on deployment on your DigitalOcean droplet — or pick the Fully Managed tier and we host it on our infrastructure.

Sales are final once the GitHub repo invite has been delivered — by that point you have full access to the source and there's no meaningful way to "return" it. Before purchasing, please watch the demo videos and feel free to book a 20-minute call — I'd rather answer questions in advance than have a buyer who's unsure afterward. The 30-day code warranty covers platform bugs in the delivered source.
