Diagnosis

Three things are quietly compressing your capacity.

01 · Stack bloat

You're paying for too much.

Tools stacked on tools. Workflows nobody fully owns. Running at 40% of capacity because the foundation was never streamlined.

02 · AI accelerant

AI is making it worse, not better.

Layering AI onto broken processes automates the confusion. You need a framework for where AI actually creates advantage.

03 · Founder bottleneck

Every decision still routes through you.

In every operational call. The AI strategist by default. Running the business instead of operating it — and you can feel it.

Find the right engagement

Three questions. We'll tell you which track fits.

01 What's your revenue?

02 What's the situation?

03 What hurts most?

The Axis method

Five stages. One handoff.

A 90-day engagement compresses operating discipline into a system your team runs. Then we step back.

Days 1–14

Diagnose

Embedded onsite or remote. Map the real org, cash cycle, decision tree — not the deck version.

Days 15–30

Stabilize

Triage vendor risk, lock working capital, rebuild the weekly cadence. Calm before clarity.

Weeks 5–8

Document

Every pricing rule, escalation path, reconciliation step — written, validated, installed.

Weeks 9–12

Hand off

Brief the next operator. Hand over the keys. Exit on a date the board picked.

Month 4+

Compound

Optional quarterly check-ins. The discipline persists past the engagement.

Engagements

Three ways in. All make us optional.

From a Saturday DIY kit to a multi-month embedded engagement. You own everything we build.

Risk reversal

What you walk away with. And when we say no.

Confidence isn't promising it'll work. Confidence is telling you in week one if it won't.

At day 90, you own —

✓ A documented playbook. 40–80 SOPs validated by the team running them.
✓ A working operating cadence — weekly, monthly, quarterly rhythms installed.
✓ Decision-routing for every $-threshold and role.
✓ A dashboard that lives in your infra. No vendor lock-in.
✓ A 90-day briefing pack for your next operator.
✓ No retainer. Month-to-month. Cancel anytime.

When we'll tell you no —

✕ Revenue under $1M — the $29 kit is a better fit.
✕ $500M+ enterprise — we're not a transformation firm.
✕ You want a deck, not a system installed.
✕ No internal owner to receive the hand-off.
✕ You're solving a hiring problem, not an operating one.
✕ We'll tell you in week one — not month four.

Principal & architect

Cedric Corbett.

A decade of operational leadership at enterprise scale — Amazon, Maersk, International Paper, Spirit Halloween, Levi Strauss. 200+ person teams. Lean Six Sigma. Sixteen proprietary operational systems built and shipped.

A first-principles operator, not a slide-deck consultant. Every engagement is led personally. When you hire Obsidian Axis, you get the architect — not a junior associate learning on your dime.

Questions

Common questions.

Your complete operating infrastructure: an edge compute layer, an owned database, a productivity suite, and AI tooling — all on usage-priced or flat-fee plans. This replaces a typical $500–3,000/month SaaS stack: CRM, automation tooling, scheduling, reporting, form builders, knowledge base.

The $29 PDF is DIY execution — a Saturday kit with five working automations. Systems Sprint ($2K–3.5K) is a single 3-hour live session where we run the framework on your business. Operations Architect ($3K–7.5K/mo) is a multi-month embedded engagement using the Axis method.

A senior operator embedded part-time to architect the operating system the company runs on — install operating discipline, fix process bloat, document playbooks — without the cost of a full-time hire.

Yes. Full GHL setup, pipeline architecture, nurture sequence design, integrations, and ongoing management — handled by an operator who actually uses the system day-to-day, not a freelancer pasting templates.

Revenue under $1M (the $29 kit is a better fit). $500M+ enterprises looking for transformation decks. Anyone who wants a binder instead of an installed system. We'll tell you in week one — not month four.

Month-to-month, cancel anytime. You own everything we build — the documented playbook, the operating cadence, the dashboard, the automations. There's no vendor lock-in because there's no vendor.

Yes — post-acquisition lower-middle-market ($10M–$100M) is our highest-fit use case. We install documented operating discipline before the next operator inherits the company.

Not ready to book?

Take something with you.

Three things you can take and use today — no scoping call required.

Newsletter

The Operator Letter.

One short note a month on operating patterns I'm seeing across engagements. No fluff, no upsell.

Lead magnet

The 5-page diagnostic worksheet.

The first thing we run in week one of an engagement, packaged as a worksheet you can run yourself. Free PDF.

For PE sponsors

The 90-day engagement plan.

The full scope, deliverables, and timeline document we send to PE buyers and sponsor portfolios. 11 pages.

Next step

Thirty minutes. No pitch deck.

We'll review your operational situation, name the biggest bloat, and tell you honestly which engagement fits where you are. If neither does, we'll tell you that too.
