See it run

See the shape of a Snapshot deliverable.

Until the live Claude reel ships, this is a walkthrough of the written deliverable (Sample Audit / Snapshot examples) — not a live build.

The free Snapshot is the real demo: one live automation on your close, measured on your numbers.

What you get, free

A short, specific report you keep, whatever you decide.

01

Where it costs you most

We pinpoint your most expensive repetitive work and the highest-value place to put AI to work first.

02

A live demonstration

We automate a real task of yours, live on Claude, including inside Excel. You watch it run on your own work.

03

A measured dollar figure

Recoverable hours and dollars from your own numbers, with the math shown and conservative assumptions. Yours to keep.

Maxwell Kroll, founder of Opswell
Who we are

Opswell is led by Maxwell Kroll.

Maxwell is the founder of Opswell. He spent his career inside the work the firm now automates — M&A, private-equity integration, and strategic finance — and for the last two years has built that work into production AI on Claude.

He has led commercial diligence on more than 25 acquisition targets, uncovered $11.8 million in EBITDA synergies on a single healthcare carve-out, and surfaced $16 million in recurring synergies while integrating eleven acquisitions at a software platform. The automation behind Opswell is his own work: generative-AI systems for cash forecasting and accruals, a 15-module deal-analysis platform, and the reporting systems he built as Chief of Staff.

Opswell focuses on AI automation for companies roughly $10M–$500M in revenue (and PE-backed portcos in that band), and finance leadership from about $2M / Series A onward. Maxwell works on every engagement himself — no handoff to junior staff. Independent, not affiliated with Anthropic.

How we work together

One free start. Then a clear path forward.

Everything starts with the free Snapshot, so you see the value on your own close before you spend a dollar. From there, a fixed Close Sprint, then a retainer if you want it kept. Best fit is a PE-backed or mid-market finance team, roughly $20M–$250M.

Automation
Free proof, a fixed close build, then a retainer if you want it maintained.

2. Close Sprintfrom $5,000

3. Run & Extendfrom $3,500/mo

Snapshot is one live automation and a measured figure. Close Sprint is your top two or three close processes, with a baseline and an after, over four to six weeks. Run & Extend keeps them monitored and adds workflows monthly. The $5,000 figure is the smallest build, not a typical close — we quote one fixed fee after the Snapshot. Larger programs (a full Audit from $20,000, multi-wave builds from $50,000) are scoped after that. Need the seat, not only the automation? Finance leadership is a separate path.
