A little further01 /The reason we’re here
Curious about AI?
You don’t have to figure it out alone.
If AI feels unfamiliar—or you’re unsure what to trust—you’re not alone. You don’t need to know the tools or have all the answers. Let us help you see what AI could do for your business.
Imagine an assistant that helps organize inquiries, prepare follow-ups, or turn a spreadsheet into a clear summary. We’ll show you a practical example around your work, explain the benefits and limits, and agree on what stays in your hands.
Less time on repeat tasks. A clearer view of what needs attention. More room to focus on your customers.
Made to be useful
Three ways to make
your work easier.
Start with the work.
Choose the technology that fits.
01Websites
A professional home for your business, with a clear next step for customers.
Make it easy to understand what you do and how to reach you. From a focused one-page site to a fuller business website, we can build in contact forms and useful connections, with the content and features agreed up front.
02AI & automation
Put repetitive steps in order. Make the next action easier to see.
Organize incoming inquiries, prepare follow-ups, or connect information between tools. We build focused workflows and AI agents around a specific job, with agreed permissions and review before consequential actions. A custom internal tool can bring those steps into one place.
03Dashboards & insights
Turn the data you already collect into a story you can act on.
Understand sales trends, see where opportunities are won or lost, and spend less time assembling reports. Start with a spreadsheet or exported file and a clear question. We’ll shape it into a dashboard that helps you see what matters, with ongoing connections scoped when useful.
02 /A thoughtful approach
Start with a real problem.
Build something that helps.
See an idea take shape.
A tailored demonstration helps make the possibilities concrete. Then we agree on the deliverables, fixed project price, and what success looks like.
Make it useful in practice.
Build and test the agreed solution, refine it with your feedback, and walk you through using it. Future improvements and support are agreed separately.
Clear scope. Thoughtful decisions. Progress you can see.
03 / The practice
Small by design.
Personal by nature.
Brass Horizon is an independent practice led by Matthew Anthony, helping small businesses in Cincinnati and beyond put technology to practical use.
Eight years in logistics taught me to turn complex problems and datasets into clear, useful insights. Two years in consumer packaged goods sharpened how I turn complex information into simple, powerful messages.
I bring that same approach to websites, dashboards, and AI tools: understand the problem, make the information clear, and build something people can use.

A few things to know
Good questions.
Clear answers.
Do I need to know what to build or how AI works?
No. Start with a business problem or something you wish worked better. We’ll help define a sensible first project and explain how to use what we build.
Does every project need AI?
No. A professional website, a clear dashboard, or a straightforward automation may be all you need. We use AI where it has a useful job to do.
Can this work with the tools we already use?
Often, but it depends on access and the connections those tools support. A dashboard can start with a spreadsheet export. We check feasibility and any ongoing software costs before agreeing on a project.
How are projects priced and scheduled?
We agree on a fixed price for a defined scope, including deliverables, revisions, and timing. A demonstration helps us explore the idea; the finished solution also needs development and testing. Larger apps and integrations are scoped individually.
What happens after the project is finished?
You receive a walkthrough and an agreed handoff. Website edits, maintenance, and further improvements can be arranged case by case, with the work, response times, and costs agreed separately. Support availability is confirmed before we commit to it.
