Practical AI for small businesses.
↓Daemon Labs is a California LLC founded in 2026, headquartered in Sacramento. We build AI-driven systems that let small businesses operate at the scale and quality of large ones - without giving up control of their data or paying for infrastructure they don't need.
Our approach is to run the heavy lifting - inference and orchestration - on local hardware where it can be tuned per customer, while using cloud services for what they're genuinely better at: delivery, durability, geographic reach. The result is faster responses, lower costs, and a system the operator actually understands.
An AI phone agent that handles incoming calls and SMS notifications for small businesses. Currently piloting with restaurants. The agent takes orders over the phone, handles modifications and cancellations, sends confirmations and pickup updates by SMS, and escalates to staff for anything outside its scope.
