Build custom systems for clients. Skip the part where you maintain them.

License the system Knight Ops runs on. It scopes the build, builds it with Claude Code, then handles the bug fixes and feature requests on autopilot, so every new client adds revenue instead of another inbox to babysit. Your brand, your clients, your prices.

Captions are built into the video, so it works with the sound off. Client data in every dashboard screen is blurred.

The maintenance trap

You like building systems. You do not like being on call for them.

Most builders who can make custom CRMs, portals and automations stop taking on new clients for the same reason. It is not the build. It is everything after it.

01

Every client is a forever job

The build ends. The "can you just change this" never does. Ten clients means ten sets of fixes, tweaks and questions, and all of them land on you.

02

Snapshots hit a ceiling

Templates and drag-and-drop automations get you most of the way, then the client needs the part that makes their business different, and the tool cannot do it.

03

Growth means hiring

The only way past a handful of clients is a dev team you have to find, manage and pay every month, whether the work is there or not.

Why this exists

I was that builder.

I spent years building CRMs, integrations and automations in GoHighLevel. I loved building custom systems. What I did not love was what came after: every client I added was another set of automations to watch and another list of changes to make. It was not scalable, so I held back from building systems for other people at all.

So I built the system I wished I had. It scopes each build from the call transcript, builds it, and handles the bug fixes and feature requests on autopilot. That changed everything. Taking on more clients became exciting instead of heavy, and one developer now supports me across every ongoing project.

That system is what you license here. Same pipeline, your brand.

How it works

From sales call to shipped system, then it keeps itself up to date.

  1. Scope. Drop in the call transcript and the client's documents. The builders pick the modules and produce mockups the client approves.
  2. Propose. The Blueprint Builder writes the blueprint and proposal with your prices and payment options. The contract generator drafts the agreement from the same scope.
  3. Build. Claude Code builds it on your computer, in your accounts, against our build standards and launch checks. The client owns the code and the accounts.
  4. Maintain on autopilot. Clients report bugs and request features from a button inside their system. Each one is planned, built, tested and closed out with an email to the client.

Clear fixes run straight through. Bigger changes wait for your approval. The workspace warns you before anything slips.

What you can sell

Custom business operating systems, under your brand.

Your clients already pay for a pile of disconnected tools. You offer them one system built around how they actually work, which they own outright. These are real systems built on this platform. Client data is blurred.

Finding clients

We do not hand you leads. We hand you the system we use to find ours.

The same CRM and prospecting tools Knight Ops sells with, inside your workspace, running on your own accounts and keys.

  • Prospecting board. Ideal-client profiles, every prospect with a stage and a next step, import a list in one click.
  • Search on your own Apollo account. Find owners by title, industry and location without leaving the board.
  • AI fit score and opener. Each prospect scored against your ideal client, with a first line written for them, on your own AI key.
  • Sample pages for prospects. Send a business a private sample of the system you would build them. Rolling out to founding licensees first.
  • CRM and sales insights. Leads, deals, notes, texts and email in one place, with a booking calendar under your name.
  • Scripts and decks. The Sales Playbook, white-label sales decks and an interactive demo with your name and booking link on it.

The founding offer

10 founding seats. Then the price goes up.

Ready before your call? Lock today's price for $1,000.

The deposit holds today's published license price for you for 12 months, even if it rises, and is credited in full toward your license fee.

Deposit terms
  1. The deposit is $1,000 (USD), paid to Knight Ops through Stripe.
  2. Price lock. If you sign a Knight Ops license agreement within 12 months of paying the deposit, your license fees will be no higher than the prices published on this page on the day you paid: $15,000 for setup and year one, $1,000 a month or $10,000 a year from month 13, and a 3% platform fee on revenue from client systems built on the platform.
  3. Credit. The full deposit is credited toward your license fee when you sign.
  4. No license yet. A deposit does not grant a license, access to the system or any right to use the Knight Ops name or marks, and it does not oblige you or Knight Ops to enter into a license agreement. A license exists only under a license agreement signed by both parties.
  5. The deposit and price lock are personal to you and cannot be transferred. One deposit per applicant.

Deposit terms version 2026-10-08.

The 90-day guarantee

If you do the work, the license pays for itself, or you stop paying for it.

On the monthly plan: complete the five steps below in your first 90 days. If the client revenue you have collected through the system is still less than what you have paid Knight Ops, your monthly payments pause until it is. You keep full access the whole time.

1Onboarding call completed
2Licensee Success call completed
3Manual, Sales Playbook and demo reviewed
415 prospects on your board, each with a next step
55 sales calls held and logged

You request the pause from your workspace and Knight Ops reviews it within two business days. Payments restart the month after you are net positive. The pause covers the monthly payments on the monthly plan; it does not refund money already paid or change the total you owe. Full details are on the ways to start page, and the signed agreement governs.

Your clients are never stranded

Every system is built on accounts the client owns, with the code in their repository. Nobody is locked in, including you.

Your brand, your relationships

No Knight Ops branding on your work. You own your client contracts and set your own prices.

Builds stay on your accounts

Client builds run on your computer, your Claude plan and your GitHub, Vercel and Supabase. Knight Ops never builds your client work on its own accounts.

Who it is for

Built for builders who already ship.

This is a delivery system, not a course. It works best for people who already build for clients and want more clients without more maintenance.

A good fit

  • You build CRMs, automations, funnels or integrations in GoHighLevel, Zapier, Make or similar tools, and your clients want more than the tools can do.
  • You run an agency, studio or consultancy with clients today and want a higher-ticket offer for them.
  • You enjoy building custom systems and want to take on more clients without becoming their support desk.
  • You are comfortable in a terminal and reviewing what an AI builds before a client sees it, or ready to learn with the onboarding.

Not a fit

  • You want leads or clients handed to you. Knight Ops does not supply clients or leads.
  • You want a white-label product to resell with no technical work on your side.
  • You are looking for passive income. This is an operating business.
  • You are not willing to do the five steps in the first 90 days.

Then 20% of what you bill on projects built with the system, until $20,000 in total license fees is paid.

Revenue share B

$1,000 down

Then 30% of what you bill on projects built with the system, until $25,000 in total license fees is paid.

Once the license is paid, the standard 3% platform fee applies, and the standard license fee from the next license year. Scholarship seats are awarded at Knight Ops' discretion and are never conditional on promoting Knight Ops. Terms are confirmed in writing in your license agreement.

Questions

Straight answers.

What is a founding seat?

One of the first 10 licenses on the current program. Founding licensees pay $1,250 a month for the first 12 months with the $5,000 setup fee waived (or $15,000 in full), get 1:1 onboarding with Daniel, and renew at $1,000 a month from month 13 for as long as they renew. After the 10 seats are taken, new licenses pay the $5,000 setup and onboard on group calls.

How does the 90-day guarantee work?

On the monthly plan, complete the five steps in your first 90 days: onboarding call, Licensee Success call, materials reviewed, 15 prospects on your board and 5 sales calls held. If the client revenue you have collected through the system is still less than what you have paid Knight Ops, the monthly payments pause until it is, and you keep full access. It does not refund money already paid. Full details.

Will Knight Ops send me clients or leads?

No. Knight Ops does not supply clients or leads and makes no promises about revenue or income. You get the prospecting board, CRM, scripts and training Knight Ops uses to find its own clients, running on your own accounts. Finding and winning clients is your business to build.

How does the 3% platform fee work?

It is 3% of all the revenue you earn from client systems built on the platform (builds, continuity and maintenance), however you bill it. When a client pays through your connected Stripe account in the workspace, 3% is taken automatically at payment. Revenue you bill any other way is reported by the 10th of the following month and paid within 15 days.

I build in GoHighLevel. Do I need to be a developer?

You need to be comfortable in a terminal and willing to review what Claude Code builds before a client sees it. The build standards, launch checks and onboarding do the heavy lifting. If you have shipped CRMs and automations for clients, you have the right instincts.

Who owns the client relationship and the code?

You own your client relationships and contracts. Client systems are built on accounts the client owns, so nobody is locked in. The build system itself, including prompts and templates, stays Knight Ops property that you license.

Do I work under the Knight Ops name?

No. You run your own business under your own name and brand. There is no Knight Ops branding, badge or attribution on your work or your marketing.

What do I need before I start?

A computer you can run a terminal on, a Claude plan with Claude Code, a GitHub account, and a Stripe account for your business. Onboarding covers the rest.

What does the $1,000 deposit do?

It holds today's published license price for you for 12 months, even if the price goes up, and the full amount is credited toward your license fee. See the deposit terms. You do not need a deposit to apply.

How do I get started?

Apply on this page, then book your 30-minute fit call. If it is a fit, you get a personal link to sign the license agreement online and start your plan.

More clients. Not more maintenance.
