We built it for ourselves first.
Hockeystick is Michael Houck's company, based in Charleston, South Carolina. It's the company brain we wished we'd had years ago.
Where it started
After three and a half years building Rye Valley, Michael figured there was bloat inside the company. He listed everything the company did, how long each job took, how often it happened and whether it needed judgment, then had Hermes, an open-source AI agent, go through the books to price it all.
Almost 40% of what the company paid for could be handled by a company brain with an agent working from it.
So he built one. Every meeting, email and decision flowed into one brain, and the agent took over the repeat work.

Why Hockeystick
Most founders don't need a team of AI agents. They need one place that keeps the context that usually gets lost when someone leaves, and one agent that works from it.
Hockeystick is that brain and agent, hosted for you, for $49 a month. If you'd rather have us build it across your whole company, we do that too.
