Proof beats promises, so here’s the actual build.
This is a lead response workflow I set up in GoHighLevel for real estate. It’s a sample build, not a client account.
Form submitted → instant text → instant email → pipeline stage → follow-ups on day 1, 3 and 7.
Every box is something an agent would otherwise do by hand between showings.

I built LeadPilot, a lead management and outreach workspace for freelance web designers and small studios.
Finding potential clients is only one part of freelance work. Understanding where you can add value, reaching out with a relevant offer, and keeping track of follow-ups can be just as challenging.
LeadPilot brings these steps into one workflow. It helps freelancers organize prospects, identify potential opportunities, prepare personalized outreach, and manage follow-ups without losing context between tools.
My focus was on building something practical, with a clean interface and a workflow designed around how independent designers actually find and approach clients.
Built with Base44 for the #Base44Challenge.

Northbound🚀: Studio Autopilot
An AI-powered client pipeline for creative studios, wrapped in a hand-built 3D world. A brief comes in, gets scored and routed, becomes a priced proposal, is accepted online and turns into a running project, with no one chasing emails.
Every studio knows the feeling: a new brief lands and the clock starts. Then come hours of reading, qualifying, writing proposals, chasing replies and setting up the project. Northbound turns that whole journey into one automated flow, so a small studio can respond like a big one.
The problem: Creative studios lose their best hours to admin. Strong leads wait days for a proposal, weak ones eat the same time as good ones, and follow-ups slip through the cracks. The work that wins clients is the work nobody has time for.
The solution:
- AI brief scoring and routing. Every brief is read for budget, timeline, goals and fit, then routed one of three ways: fast track, a quick human review, or an honest, helpful decline with pointers.
- Tailored proposals in about a minute. Strong fits get a scoped proposal with workstreams, a realistic timeline and three priced packages.
- Online acceptance and kickoff booking. Clients pick a package, accept online and book their kickoff call on the spot.
- A project that runs itself. Milestones are planned on acceptance, and follow-ups and reminders go out automatically.
- A morning digest. Every day at 08:00 the studio owner gets a summary of new briefs, proposals awaiting review, clients who haven’t replied, and what’s due.
- An owner dashboard showing pipeline, win rate and hours saved, plus a review queue to approve held proposals in one click.
- A live demo console where anyone can send a sample brief through the real pipeline and watch each step happen.
The morning digest is my favorite part here. When inquiries, proposals and deadlines are all in one place, you don't have to start the day searching through conversations. I'd just put the items that need an owner's decision today at the top.
5 signs your website is quietly losing leads:
1. The hero doesn't say what you do in five seconds
2. It's slow on a phone
3. Too many calls to action
4. Forms ask for too much
5. No proof near the ask
Which one are you fixing first?
