  • Automated approval chains
  • Real-time monitoring dashboards
See Full Service →

AI Phone Agent

Every call answered 24/7. AI qualifies leads, books appointments, and escalates emergencies — in your voice. No calls go to voicemail. No jobs lost after 5 PM.

  • 24/7 call & text answering
  • Appointment booking automation
  • Emergency escalation protocols
See Full Service →

HIPAA-Compliant AI

AI built inside HIPAA — not around it. Prior auth, scheduling, documentation, and billing prep. Full BAA. PHI never touches a public model.

  • On-premise or private cloud
  • BAA executed before any work
  • Adoption playbooks & SOPs
See Full Service →

Dispatch & Route Optimization

Stop building routes by hand. AI dispatches your crew before they clock in — optimal loads, live traffic, driver availability. Built for Michigan's freight corridors and service fleets.

  • Automated route & load assignment
  • Live traffic + driver availability
  • 1:70 dispatcher-to-driver ratio

Industries We Serve

Michigan's Fastest-Moving Sectors.

We specialize in the industries driving Michigan's economy — and we know the specific bottlenecks, regulations, and ROI benchmarks in each one.

Automotive Supply Chain

Sterling Heights, Warren, Auburn Hills, Pontiac — Michigan's Tier 2 & 3 suppliers are under direct pressure from Ford, GM, and Stellantis to digitize quality inspection and reporting. Fail the next OEM audit and you're off the vendor list. We get AI-assisted QA live before your next window — built to your line, not a demo environment.

35% downtime reduction · 95%+ defect detection · OEM audit-ready from day one

Healthcare & Medical Practices

Metro Detroit groups, Henry Ford-affiliated practices, and independent Southeast Michigan clinics are losing 3–5 staff hours daily to manual prior auth and intake processing. We build HIPAA-compliant on-premise AI that handles scheduling, documentation, and authorization workflows — patient data never touches a public API, never leaves your network.

30+ staff hours recovered per week · Break-even at 12–18 months · Zero PHI exposure

Logistics & Trucking

Carriers running the I-75, I-94, and I-96 corridors — the Detroit-Windsor trade lane, Downriver to Ohio, the Detroit-Chicago run — are hand-building routes every morning. We automate dispatch, load matching, and driver assignment so your crew is rolling before they clock in and your back-office team actually goes home on time.

20+ dispatch hours/week recovered · Routes built before shift start · Load matching automated

Construction & Skilled Trades

Southeast Michigan GCs, MEP subs, and specialty trades are fighting two fronts at once: a labor shortage that isn't reversing, and a market where whoever estimates fastest wins the job. We automate your estimating workflow, follow-up sequences, and job scheduling — so your sales team closes faster and your crews don't sit on dead time.

Estimates generated 80% faster · Follow-up automated from first contact · No more scheduling conflicts
Why Michigan. Why Now.

The Businesses Pulling Ahead
Aren't Working Harder.

The I-75 corridor from Detroit to Flint carries some of the densest manufacturing traffic in North America. The Detroit-Windsor crossing handles more US-Canada commercial trade than any other border crossing. Ford, GM, and Stellantis are forcing their supply chains to digitize — or lose the contract. Metro Detroit healthcare networks are drowning in prior auth denials. The contractors who estimate fastest are winning every job. The secret isn't working harder. It's building the right system — before your competitor does.

#1
Michigan is the nation's leading manufacturing state per capita — with the world's densest concentration of Tier 2/3 OEM suppliers, most now under direct AI mandate pressure from the Big 3
$250M+
In daily US-Canada commercial trade through the Detroit-Windsor corridor — Michigan freight carriers that automate dispatch and routing now hold a permanent margin advantage

Independent medical practices in Michigan still processing scheduling and prior auth manually — the first ones to automate will see more patients with the same staff
50%
Of AI implementation costs reimbursable through Michigan's Industry 4.0 Tech Grant — available right now for qualifying manufacturers. Most don't know to ask

We're not a national firm that parachutes into Michigan. We're built here — Sterling Heights suppliers, Downriver freight carriers, Metro Detroit practices, Southeast Michigan contractors. We know the territory because we work in it every day.

Zero Risk

Every Reason to Start.
None to Wait.

We removed every common objection before you could raise it. Here's the commitment before you book anything.

01

Fixed Price. Always.

The number in your signed SOW is the number on your invoice. No hourly overages. No scope creep charges. If we underestimate the build — we absorb it. You never pay more than you approved.

02

Live in the Timeline.

You get a launch date before you sign. We build buffer into every project. If something goes sideways, we work nights and weekends. Your deadline is our deadline — it's in the contract.

03

30-Day ROI in Writing.

At 30 days post-launch we measure the result together. Hours recovered, errors eliminated, volume processed — put in writing. If we can't show you the output, we keep optimizing until we can.

04

Free Before You Commit.

You get a full 30-minute audit of your operation, a ranked list of your top AI opportunities, and a frank conversation about what we'd leave alone. Zero cost. No obligation. Even if you don't hire us.

Your Competition Is Already Automating.
Let's Make Sure You're Ahead.

30 minutes. No pitch. We audit your top three workflow gaps and tell you exactly what AI can fix — and what it can't. You walk away with clarity either way.

About the Founder

Built in Detroit.
Built to Serve.

I'm David Calderon — Metro Detroit born, Michigan-rooted. I built American AI Solutions with one conviction: every business deserves access to tools that were previously only available to Fortune 500 companies.

We operate with integrity at every step. When I say fixed price, I mean it. When I say 48-hour proposal, I mean it. When I say 30-day ROI checkpoint, it's in the contract. No bait-and-switch. No hidden scope. Just honest work that produces real results for real Michigan businesses.

"The world is ours — every client who reaches out deserves our absolute best. That's not a business strategy. That's a standard I won't negotiate."

Real Results

What Happens When We Build Together.

Southeast Michigan · Logistics & Dispatch Automation
★★★★★

Our dispatch team was manually building routes every morning — two people, four hours, every day. Three weeks after David's team finished, the system built routes automatically and sent assignments before the crew clocked in. We haven't touched it since. First month we got back 20 hours a week.

Metro Detroit · HIPAA-Compliant Prior Auth Automation
★★★★★

They didn't oversell it. David walked through our intake and prior auth process, told us exactly what he could fix and what he couldn't — then he fixed it. On budget, on time. Our staff got three hours a day back. That's not a small thing.

West Michigan · OEM Quality Inspection AI · Tier 2 Supplier
★★★★★

We had an OEM audit coming up and needed our quality process tightened fast. David mapped it, built the detection model, trained our team, and was still answering questions 45 days later. We passed the audit. That's the only number that matters.

Southeast Michigan · GC Estimating & Proposal Automation
★★★★★

We were losing bids because we couldn't turn estimates fast enough. Now the system pulls the takeoff, generates the proposal, and follows up automatically. We went from 3 days to same-day. Won four jobs last month we would've been too slow to bid on before.

Every lead that came in after hours was a lost lead. David built a system that qualifies, responds, and books appointments automatically — 24/7. We booked 11 appointments in the first two weeks from leads we would have missed. Worth every dollar.

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know Before You Call.

How is this different from just giving my team ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a tool. We build systems. The difference is a workflow that's integrated into your CRM, your email, your ops platform — and runs automatically, without anyone prompting it. We also fine-tune models on your specific data so results are accurate to your business, not generic.

Do we need technical staff to maintain it after you leave?

No. We build for your team's actual capability. Every engagement includes documented SOPs, a team training session, and a 30-day support window. If something breaks or needs updating, we're one email away. We design for operational independence, not dependency on us.

Can we really get grant funding to cover the cost?

Yes — for qualifying Michigan businesses. The Going PRO Talent Fund (Michigan LEO, $6M pool) covers AI training costs. The Industry 4.0 Tech Grant reimburses up to 50% of technology implementation costs for small manufacturers. We help you structure the engagement to qualify and handle the documentation.

What if AI isn't actually the right solution for our business?

We'll tell you. Our audit is honest — if the highest-ROI move is fixing a process before automating it, that's what we recommend. We've turned down engagements where the problem wasn't an AI problem. That honesty is why our clients refer us.

How quickly will we see real results?

First automation live in 3–4 weeks on a Quick Deploy engagement. We schedule an explicit ROI checkpoint at 30 days post-launch — we measure the output against your baseline and put the numbers in writing. You'll know if it's working, and so will we.

Do you only work with Michigan businesses?

Michigan is our priority — we know the market, the OEM supply chain, the grant landscape, and the local business community. We do take select clients outside Michigan when the engagement is a strong fit. Reach out and we'll let you know quickly if it makes sense.

How is my business data protected during the build?

We sign an NDA before any work begins. For healthcare clients, we sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) before writing a single line of code. For sensitive operations, we build on-premise — your data never touches a public API. We work inside your environment, not ours. Data handling protocols are documented in every SOW.

What if the automation doesn't perform the way we expected?

That's what the 30-day ROI checkpoint is for. We measure the output against the baseline we set together before the build. If something's underperforming, we diagnose and fix it — included in every engagement. We don't close the ticket until the numbers match the projection. Our reputation in a tight Michigan market depends on every client getting results they can point to.
