Start with the operation

You know where the friction is.

Copying between systems. Chasing missing information. Waiting days for a report.

Bring the bottleneck. We’ll work out whether a better process, a simple integration, or AI is the right next step.

Illustrative workflow · Not a client case study

Less chasing.
A clearer next step.

A better workflow

  1. Capture the request once
  2. Check the required information

Three ways to work together

Assess. Build. Lead.

01 / ASSESS

Find the opportunity.

We map the current workflow, compare the opportunities, and leave you with a prioritized recommendation—even if the right answer is to simplify, integrate, defer, or not build yet.

Assessments from $5,000

Scope and deliverables agreed before work begins. See a sample assessment →

02 / BUILD

Make the change work.

Build and test AI agents, integrations, and internal tools around an agreed business need.

Implementations from $20,000

03 / LEAD

Give delivery an owner.

Get hands-on leadership to coordinate your team, vendors, decisions, and delivery.

Scoped to your initiative

Explore all five services →

Blueprints, process redesign, and fractional leadership are scoped separately. Fees depend on complexity, integrations, data readiness, and rollout requirements.

Founder-led accountability

Meet your founder.
Know who leads the work.

Led by Joe Neil Zelaya, founder of ClearPath Intake. Your engagement defines deliverables, responsibilities and acceptance checks before work begins.

About ClearPath →

Do we need to know what to build?

No. Describe the business problem and what you want to improve. We start by understanding the operation and deciding which kind of change makes sense.

Is ClearPath only for intake automation?

No. Intake is one possible workflow. The offer includes AI strategy, process redesign, agents, automation, internal tools, and transformation delivery across business functions.

Can you work with our existing team and software?

Yes. We assess the current environment before recommending integrations or replacements. An engagement can also focus on coordinating delivery with your team and vendors.

Start with the business problem

What would you change
about the way your business runs?

Send one workflow and what is getting in the way. We’ll reply by email and, if it would help, set up a focused 25-minute conversation. Only after that would we discuss whether a paid scope makes sense—and sometimes the honest answer is that it doesn’t. No technical brief is required.
